Not In So Many Words

Pro tip, when someone busts out the little hearts on their word balloons when they're talking to you, love is in the air. Of course, only the person talking knows that they're talking with heart balloons so figuring that clue out can sometimes be difficult. Always.

Also, if a girl feels comfortable enough around you to talk about her breasts, she's most likely flirting with you. Or she just really likes her breasts. Or she's slutty. You know what, even if a girl is comfortable enough around you to talk about her breasts that doesn't mean shit. So confusing!

As for the soup Julie is serving Bodie, shark fin soup is known as an aphrodisiac in Chinese cuisine. But you kill the shark to make it. And it's a terribly slow death for the little guys. When you cut off their fins, you take away their mode of locomotion. They need water to flow through their gills in order to live and if they can't move because they have no fins, they die. I think I'd feel less uncomfortable about shark fin if the rest of the shark was also used for its meat. That's not the case. A whole shark dies for just its fins. I'm not a big animal activist, but I think that's kind of fucked. So I'd like to think that Julie isn't serving shark fin. But I can't think of any other Chinese soup known for its sexy properties.

This video is sort of a subtweet about some art twitter discourse. But I wanted to respond in video form rather than in written form so that you wouldn't misinterpret my words. Also not linking the discourse directly because I don't want to dogpile on the inspiration for my thoughts. But here are three ideas that I wanted to share with artists for us to keep in our brains as we go into the new year.
