Idk how to feel about this 😂

“ We were drawn magnetically to the altar, the evaporation of self meant you could escape the confines of the flesh and fill the room.”

“The refusal to fill the space with objects but to move and reshape, invites chance and the unknown through negative space—because is this not faith, believing in what you cannot see? Is this not what invites God?”

“Though we insist we are Socialist and Marxist in our ideals, is social media and our pursuit for fame within this structure not the purest expression of individualistic, Thatcherite neocolonial politics where we transform into scripted individual brands, launching ourselves like start-up companies while masquerading as being ‘in service’ to our ‘communities’ by ‘taking up space”

“We are saddened by the knowledge that nothing really collectively changes but reassured by the thought that it did for me on an individual level, as we backstroke across the vast placid sea of righteous superiority.”

“do we commit further harm by performing our Otherness—by Othering ourselves for.. approval, to gain a following, build a fanbase? What are the effects of this alienation, do we even care?”
