Art never stops.

You can drown in an image if you stare long enough. Such is the power of art. Its currents can stir up internal and societal storms. Painter Joar Songcuya is no stranger to this concept.

Just saw a homophobic post from a former crewmate. I checked the comments and saw another two former crewmates making a satirical remark. Wow, I hope they’ll all bear straight children in the future and all their family members are ”super straight”
