AKA privacy? isolation? more so: i sometimes have no desire to share my art online, even if i know i should. i just don't always feel like it! (it comes in waves)
I used to share a lot of cool shit with people but I never got the reactions I wanted (I know it's childish and no one should act the way I want them to act). I got really bitter about it so now I gatekeep everything. I see a cool video breaking down architecture in dune? You better believe no one is getting to know about it. Sometimes I find things that might be helpful to others but I am a pos and I just don't want them to see it. If they are destined to watch it, they'll find it themselves.
my friend Jonah did this for his bestie's bday: everyone brings their favorite records or CDs and we listen to everyone's music taste! bonus points if you bring a snack/drink to pair with it
when something shifts... emerged from depression? curse is lifted. finally did that thing I've been avoiding? curse is lifted. I see my friends after a period of grinding it out? curse. is. lifted.
my friend Chloe lives in a gorg apartment complex that has lots of elderberry trees, so whenever they ripened we harvested them and made some tasty jam!! it was really fun to clip them off the tree, pulling on branches to bring the berries closer to me felt nice cuz when i released the branch it'd slap back all relieved that we're lightening it's load.
