I need people to focus on the real issue here: the value of creative labor, aka jobs. This is not about whether or not it qualifies as "art", whether or not it looks bad, etc. All of that is a just a distraction when we live in a world where we need to work to in order to live.

The greatest irony of the pandemic for me is that many of the protective measures instituted against covid were successful enough that people became convinced they weren't necessary in the first place.

Pssst: Just because you think you can afford to get Covid doesn’t mean you won’t spread it to someone who can’t. Covid is contagious. So is courtesy. 😷😷😷

Hello everyone! So you probably don't know, but Smash isn't all that I do. In fact, I've spent a lot of time over quarantine writing. I've finally published my first book, called Demontouched - a YA fantasy book. It's in Kindle or paperback! amazon.com/Demontouched-Nath…
