My thought is that you can separate the art from the artist, but you can't separate the *money* from the artist.

This Administration should be required to use Comic Sans.

I have no words to express my level of disgust & heartbreak.

Ye Gods. That's horrifying.

This is just so incredibly appalling.

A lot of us agree

Aww, man. The cute dog video got deleted!

This says a lot about the current state of the US.

*cut through metal.

Erie's main library has a full-on maker space with a 3D printer & a laser cutter. (Alas, not one that will gut through metal. I checked.)

I want to organize an art show here where I live that's based on works the current government would find offensive & call it "Degenerate".

Nancy Spiro was an Art Goddess.

Your complicity will not save you.

I've several months worth of music in my iPod & about 1,000 cds. I could go for days!

My Bush? Kate.

My men? Of monsters.

My American Airman? A ghost.

My Whigs? Afghan.

Guess he somehow missed the bearded bellydancers.

They can't wait to label real artists making original work as Degenerate.

As someone in danger of having her Medicare & Medicaid cut, I am in no way surprised by the golden statue. I'm giggling about the bearded dancers, though. Especially because I used to bellydance myself (although I did American Tribal).

But mostly, I'm just confused.

And honestly? This is a relatively minor problem. I at least *can* drive to Pittsburgh if I really need to. There's a lot of seniors, immunocompromised, & rural people who simply are not able to go to a doctor's office.

This is a massive problem for me. My sleep doc is in Pittsburgh because none of the sleep docs in Erie deal with parasomnias so of course I see him via telehealth. There's no reason for me to drive 2 hours for an appointment I can have by video.

Because I need joy in life so I don't scream constantly

1. Woke up most days
2. Got accepted into an art show
3. Played with my dog
4. Put most of my socks in the drawer
5. Also consumed pizza

Of course the guy's name is Buddy.

As an artist, yes. We do.
