Reminders for the Anxious/Depressed Creatives

• You’re more than what you make.
• Your productivity does not determine your value.
• It’s okay to do nothing sometimes.
• Not everything you do has to result in a product.
• Not everything you make has to be important, significant, or even good.
• You can make things just for yourself.
• You can keep secrets for yourself, whether it’s not posting some of your projects or not sharing your techniques.
• You’re allowed to say no.
• You’re allowed to rest.

2023 Updates:

• Inspiration doesn’t cure burnout. Rest cures burnout.
• People will wait for you; take your time and come back when you are ready.
• It’s okay to scrap projects that no longer excite you, even if other people like them.
• It’s delightful and excellent to be openly proud of your work.
• Afford yourself the same gentleness that you would afford another creative - negative self-talk is counterproductive and frankly cruel.
• Self-indulgent creations are satisfying to others as well; don’t apologize for your own pleasure.
• Actually, don’t apologize for your work at all.

I wish Americans fucked with more foreign music. You don’t have to know the language to appreciate a good record. Folks in other countries listen to our music and don’t speak a lick of english. Music needs no translator

yall wont trick me into listening to kpop

You can try Radiooooo.com - The Musical Time Machine!!

choose a country, pick a decade, and GO!!

you’ll get an endless streaming of songs (ad free!).

I personally found myself loving 1970s Ghana, Senegal and Cote d’Ivoire! Also 1920s and 1970s Japan for sure! Cambodian music: spectacular. Love Armenia and Mali as well. I’ve been told 70s Germany is weird and 30s Algeria is cool but I haven’t gotten around to those yet. Italy’s 1960s is bomb ofc but I’m biased ;)

This is the best website anyone has ever shared.

i love radiooooo! radio garden is another good one: radio stations around the world. and bandcamp is great for both old and new stuff. you can search by location.

Last night I had a dream I woke up to find that my house had been turned into a Smart House with every wall being a digital screen including the roof so I could see it even laying on bed and the Siri voice said “Don’t worry. You are perfectly safe in your Apple Smart Home™️” knowing I have a BIG phobia of intruders especially at night and it continued with “Let’s explore the neighborhood from the comfort of your home” so it opened google maps and accidentally zoomed past a shitty jpeg of the girl from The Ring standing outside my house and it said “ignore that”. woke up laughing

if you want me to consume a new media you MUST catch me at the exact moment when the stars are aligned and the air pressure is equal to the current degree of the sun’s peak against the horizon and all the cosmic energies are perfectly unified (aka my old interest is fading out) or i will nod and say “im adding that to my list!” Knowing theres no chance i will check it out

“unless its a book!” “unless you tell me it has gay people in it!” “this but only for live action shows” “theres a good chance i’ll get to it eventually” no wrong this post is not for you this post is ONLY for bitches who could have a treasured friend recommend them something that sounds grown in a lab to be your personal catnip and, with no choice in the matter, immediately know it will never be the right time to watch/read/listen to it

thinking about compiling and list of song artists who were raised mormon and their lyrics that make me (a mormon) go absolutely batshit

The entirely of “Trouble” by Imagine Dragons?!?!?!?

ooo please do compile and share this list! i looked up the lyrics of “Trouble” to see what you were talking about, and OH. “i was only 19” “I’m just a man, a man on a mission” ok yeah this is Relevant to My Interests

YES that! That’s what hints at it being about a mission, and using that it gives more meaning to the chorus : “pray for me brother/sister, I need redemption, I’ve got no faith” like, firstly addressing people as brother/sister is common in a lot of religions, but as a missionary it’s expected. You gotta address everyone as brother or sister. Plus this chorus captures a feeling that I think is really common among missionaries. When we serve missions, we have no idea what we’re doing and half of us don’t feel like we’re “worthy” enough to be out there, or that we don’t have sufficient faith/don’t know if what we’re teaching is true.

(Sorry you encouraged me so here’s my essay on Trouble ig)

I just feel like it really gets at that like, genuine desire to be faithful and good, while also struggling.

Plus the opening lines are “Oh quiet down, I’ve had enough, I guess it’s now or never,” which perfectly sums up how a lot of missionaries (especially amab ones) feel about the constant pressure to serve a mission. Like, okay, I’ll go. It’s inevitable. I’m going so that people will shut up.

and the BRIDGE. “Oh maybe you could save my soul, from all the things that I don’t know.” This one is. ooof. I think a good faith reading of it is directed at God. Once again, balancing on this precarious faith. “Maybe.” Maybe God can save me, Maybe what I’m teaching is true.

The other interpretation (and the one I relate to) is that this is directed at another missionary or a leader or something. Somebody who’s approval you have started to see as salvation. I think this is common for missionaries as well. (and inevitably you are let down when you are rudely reminded that they are human)

and tie it all together “I want no trouble,” repeated over an over. You just. You’re talking to strangers everyday and people are angry at you and you feel like you’re worthless and you don’t know why you’re even there and you just, don’t want any trouble. Please. Just let me do what’s expected of me so my parents won’t complain, let the people I talk to turn me down nicely, let my companions get along with me. Please let me get through these 2 years without trouble.
