Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Difficult to express my emotions & thoughts on this subject IF - I create THEN - it is fed into AI & replicated ad nauseum

Have gallerists abdicated taste to the algorythm? Was talking to a painter friend of mine who told me galleries don't want to see you unless you have a high follower count on IG. Does that mean that meta is the one deciding what galleries will look at? Deciding what is cool??? Hamoginizing sameness.

superb

When I was in HS I kept seeing a girl on the train. Had a mad crush on her! I went to basic training. There she was. She had enlisted too! Got my nerve up to ask her to a weekend dance. She said yes. But I drew gaurd duty that night. Asked my pal to go let her know. They were married a month later.

Amalgamation Of loose Ambivalence Crowd Morals Freshly baked Like yesteryear's Cookies Baked With gladness And Tears Whatever was Known Is lost Whatever is found Is unlearned The truths That shaped A young mind Predicated on Biased judgement Probably only Matters To the Silence. #art #photography

This is a beautiful thing. These shelter dogs get to pick their own toys.

THIS 👇 HERE IS TRUE......👍🏼

Fuuuuck man. Therapy today brought up a memory that I've lived with for at least 46 years. Whether right or wrong I've blamed myself for something I had no control over. I still do. This will be hard to process. Hard to let go of.

Trust The process The rude Loud Obnoxious process Frustrated and Fatigued It's enough To Go Naked Unto the storm Just as things On the verge Of transcendence Collapse Under the weight Of prevailing minds To form Pleasantry and Platitudes With which to Congratulate The winners As the Loosers escape.

Whenever I ignore my phone ringing and I soon get a voicemail notification, I laugh and laugh. Silly stranger, friends now better😏

Started listening to Robert Capa's book Slightly Out Of Focus. Thought I'd be meh about it after reading two heavy discourses on photography. Buuut it reads like an adventure novel lol! Mofo was a swashbuckler🤣🤣🤣
