Defining art by a random arbitrary quality? Oh what could go wrong? :alienhmm:
Yeah the whole "degenerate art" thing from Nazi Germany was brought up by people mocking her in the comments. She was truly making no good points. There was also the classic "only art that is realistic and detailed is REAL art!!!" bullshit.
real video of me forcing myself to practice self care when I'm struggling
I just read the worst take on art I think I will ever see. This lady was arguing that art with simple shapes and bright colors wasn't art at all. Because it's "low quality" and then stated that to find real art you need to look at it without color because bright, engaging colors are "Junkfood". The thing about art is: The Color Is Part Of It. You cannot engage with a piece by removing an important aspect of it and claim it's "bad" because it no longer resonates.

Good question! I actually don’t know. You can probably make a faux leather out of just about anything if you attach it to plastic.
Yeah see, and listen I'm not like vehemently anti-plastic. I believe it has good uses! But sustainable fabrics like leather, which already is off the animal which they use for meat, are ok too! They last longer, they're more comfortable, most retain heat better. And this goes double for wool which doesn't involve killing the animal at all! I also am not anti vegan! I just think certain aspects of vegan culture are missing the point a little.
I have vegan leather made from apples and I have seen it made from cactus and other natural things
What are the cactus fibers bonded to? The cactus leather I know of is made using a framework of plastic to bond the cactus fibers. I don't know anything about apple leather but I bet it's the same.

Tell me an argument against veganism and I'll rate it on a scale of 1 to 10.
"Vegan" leather is just plastic with extra steps in all current cases. Which contributes to microplastic build up. (However, the most damaging microplastic contributor is fishing nets, so y'know. The mycelium leather loafers and belt are like...nothing compared.)

Aren’t they gorgeous? And so under appreciated lol like imagine you are a predator to the Portuguese man o’ war and you’re smaller than someone’s thumb 😭
Using your (very dangerous) prey's most potent weapon to protect yourself. Like damn nudi, you look good and mean business!

I am SO glad you asked & would be thrilled to answer!!!! They are a species of sea slug. They’re particularly fascinating to me because they are made up of these insane, vibrant patterns without any...
These are actually one of my fave animals! So glad to see some nudibranch appreciation out in the wild.
