“I don’t know how to reconcile that my favorite piece of media was made by someone awful.” Because they’re a shitty person who made something good. It’s not that rare of a phenomenon. Shitty people make good things everyday. A piece of art being made by a terrible person does not make its effect null and void and making good art does not redeem a terrible person. People who are irredeemably nasty can say something true and honest on occasion. To reevaluate a work after finding out more about the artist’s horrendous biases and actions and still find things that are honest and true even when consuming it through a critical lens, that is a beautiful thing. If the artist’s actions and words completely destroy it for you and distort the meaning you once found, it’s okay to feel a sense of mourning and loss at that.
This is not to say that you should continue to lavish social and financial capital on the artist because you enjoy their art but to say that enjoying art made by horrible people does not mean you are in some way unclean.

Bilbo stays at Erebor and then shares a elevenses with his king
fyi it has literally been about 4 or 5 years since I've drawn anything seriously. And I still got it!
The practice sketching yesterday was very helpful! I think I can probably trust myself to watercolor again.🤞🤞🤞
Hello, my name is Mohammed Ali Al-Habil, Im a father of 4♥️ children And I'm disable I need your help and support 🙏😭😭
I ask for your help and support to help me and my children live in peace and security. Before the war, they used to make a living by fishing in the sea with their boats because of the Zionist occupation. My family lost everything, their homes were destroyed, and they were forced to flee. Now they live in tents. Their situation is very difficult, and the travel costs are very high. I want them to live in a country where security and peace prevail. We are a people who deserve to live.
I have lost many of my family members, and fear kills me when I see their children trembling with fear and panic because of the bombing, destruction, displacement, and living in tents, and suffering from chronic and infectious diseases due to the lack of health services. I hope you will help me support them on the path to security and peace and to live with their most basic rights like the rest of the world. All thanks and respect to you.
My account is New please support me and donate to save my family 🙏😭😭
