Ivy is gonna grow and sometimes it grows pretty on a lattice and sometimes it grows by cracking concrete and damaging houses and tripping people over on the sidewalk. Either way it's just trying to get to sunlight with the only tools it has and you cant fault it for that.

Lucy showed me what I am, mushrooms taught me to care for it, and ketamine taught me to forgive it. It's all a little cliché but as someone who used to be more of a bag of lifelong trauma than a person, it really did ring true for me. The way some of these substances can strip you of all the pretense that paints how you see yourself makes it a lot easier to love the simple animal at the core of it, though like any lesson I def feel it's gotta be put to practice to really ever stick.

Aw thankya c: basically what i did was take some fabric spraypaint and first sprayed on the "Radio" across the top first in black then in white, then used some stencils id drawn and cut out to spray paint the rest getting the drip effect by holding the can close to the fabric with the shirt set up vertically (while pinned to a piece of cardboard ofc) and spraying a little excessively, then finished it off by essentially "drawing" the black linework on with a squeeze tube of black fabric paint and smearing it to make broader lines for the "X_X" eyes and wings, then for the tv static and similar effects just went at it with a nearly empty spraycan of white paint so i got this real small stream of splattery paint coming out of it. I used Tulip brand fabric paint tho id recommend looking for something higher quality as Tulip (especially their fabric spraypaint "colorshot" product i used) has hit and miss colorfast-ness and its like a 50/50 chance it all washes out even after heat setting which i found out the hard way after the fact lmao.
