I feel like Artists are pressured 2 pretend they don't care ab engagement?
Truth is, it hurts when you spend days making something you're genuinely proud of n it reaches fewer people than a random regurgitated meme.
It's okay to be a lil heartbroken or weary! You dont have to pretend to be super-human! You can love creating and wish your work had been seen.... Those feelings aren't opposites. They're roommates living in the same haunted apartment 🖤#artistlife #mentalhealth

The Los Angeles Police Department is ending its contract with Flock cameras over civil liberties and civil rights concerns.
Officials have confirmed that these cameras collect data on Americans.
The contract is set to expire and will not be renewed.
Nine more officers have been arrested and discharged from duty for using Flock cameras to stalk and harass American citizens. This brings the number of officers charged with violating 4th Amendment rights to 21 total thus far.
Officials in Auburn, California, are panicking after a mysterious group of people stole the majority of their Flock cameras and threw them into a nearby canal.
The incidents are continuing, and they have no idea how to stop them from happening again.
"They're completely destroyed."
"There's a big uproar regarding government camera surveillance."
