Art doesn’t always need to have a message, meaning, feeling, or even an audience. But influencers do—they rely on having a message and people to engage with it. Don’t mix the two up.

How your ego is affecting your mental health | iHASCO
“Your ego takes you away from the present moment. Imagine living your whole life thinking about the past and the future, and then realising at the end that all you ever had was the present moment – but you were too stuck in your head to fully engage your senses and enjoy the world around you. Here’s how you can identify when your ego kicks in…”

“Fake ass” is a slang phrase used to describe someone or something that is inauthentic, insincere, or trying too hard to be something they’re not. It can apply to people, behavior, or even objects that seem fake or untrustworthy. For example, calling someone a “fake ass friend” means they act like a friend but aren’t truly loyal or genuine.

“To be frank, all of these reasons can really be summed up in one word: insecurity. The person who is insecure will constantly see other people’s actions (or inactions) as a threat to their sense of self. When someone doesn’t do or say what we want or expect them to, this can be very uncomfortable and unnerving for those of us who are insecure. Insecurity causes us to rely almost exclusively on external things and conditions to help us feel safer in the world—and since the external isn’t within our control, we are often left reeling, reactive, and defensive.”

“I am not interested in the kind of expression that you have when you
paint a painting with brush strokes. It’s all right, but it’s already
done and I want to do something new. I didn’t want to get into something
which is played out and narrow. I want to do as I like, invent my own
interests. Of course, that doesn’t mean that people who, like Newman,
still paint are worn out. But I think that’s a particular kind of
experience involving a certain immediacy between you and the canvass,
you and the particular kind of experience of that particular moment. I
think what I’m trying to deal with is something more long range than
that in a way, more obscure perhaps, more involved with things that
happen over a longer time perhaps. At least it’s another area of
experience.”Donald Judd, Untitled, 1968.

“The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot.”
