No thank you.

The whole tortured artist crap is such bullshit. You don't need to smoke cigarettes or be (un) clinically depressed to be creative. What the fuck? We create these stereotypes for what we want artists to be: innovative, "edgy," mysterious and it's agreed that they have to have "issues," be introverted, be destructive. Sorry, but this shit isn't healthy.

Just because Van Gogh cut off this own ear, doesn't mean you have to.

A whole other day dream


But we leave the sound on 'cause silence is
harder. And no one’s the killer and no one’s
the martyr. The world that has made us can
no longer contain us. And profits are silent
then rotting away.
