    Yeah, idk but this comment seems a bit ignorant of the fact that other people use different words than you and whatever (boring sounding) publications you’re exposed to.

    And “things with no practical value”, is absolutely a false statement. Just because you’ve blinded yourself to the practicality and usefulness of art, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

    Tho I will concede that your list of boring, sterile and utilitarian words there might be helpful in convincing establishment capitalists, since those are what they care about.

    All that being said, your voice becomes uniquely important in taking the flowery prose us more artsy folk use, and converting them into the nutrient dense, flavorless block of knowledge that you can share to the people who need words like “easy” and “cheap” to sell them on a sustainable future.

    You’re doing gods work lol
