Anon, it's time you learn a harsh life lesson. The reason Hollywood makes nothing but sequels and remakes isn't because that's what those artists are passionate about. It's because that's what audiences will pay for. And what you are describing about Twitter is exactly the same phenomenon. As an artist you must choose to use your skills either to express yourself or to get likes and money. The best among us can balance the two. Often times bands will make whole albums of real genuine music but if they ever want to be heard they also have to make a radio song, a single. The days where you can get big famous, financially independent creating real art, in any field of art are over.

idk if my progress was slower at the gym or with drawing. but the difference is i quit the gym after 7 months. ive been here for a year and 6 months. i could sit here and feel bad for being shit at 2 things or i can just look at it like... maybe im a really impatient person. maybe things just progress slowly. maybe this is my best and i have no choice and the best i can do is stick with it and being slightly better slowly is better than not being any better.
