The most unhinged thing about modern life is that we've normalised paying $200 a month for the gym and $300 a month for wellness "supplements" but if someone charges $5 for a newsletter they wrote with their actual brain people act like they've been mugged at knifepoint
@Daojoan This gets at something that is germinating for me at the moment: I have thought for a long time that the arts/humanities should be 'demarginalised', but lately I've been wondering whether the can or should be ~ perhaps they do their best work in the margins, causing subtle shifts in the subcultural veins. Demarginalising might mean 'commercialising', which generally stinks of taint. This 'argument' doesn't pay the bills though, I get that.
