I really hate how people are so sensitive about angering other people,

So true! I showed a couple friends my art, and they all thought it was "so good!" but NONE OF THEM WOULD TELL ME HOW TO IMPROVE IT.
What's the point of drawing if everyone is only going to fawn over your art and you'll never get any better?






I'm sorry, but it's just the fact that some people aren't the type to want to upset people, You don't want to Make another person feel like their art is garbage, and some are afraid of coming off like they don't like it, even if they really do, And it might also be because they feel they have no say in the matter, Since they aren't ones to judge.




Sorry If this seemed rude, But its just my personal 2 cents

To be fair, friendly constructive criticism is different than "urgh ur art is trash." If your can't do one without the other then I can see that being a problem.


On topic, I was hoping going out would cure some of my anxiety. NOPE

I just wanted to keep the quote loop going. xP

I'm so conflicted constantly lately. I have a group of friends who i usually enjoy being around at school but near the end of the school year i started realizing theyre people I'd rather not have in my life. They're all homophobic, transphobic, and generally closed minded. It seems i cut off every friend i get and That's not gonna work out for me in the end.


And to make all my emotions even more frustrated, it seems every plan i make goes to shit. My closed minded parents won't trust my girlfriends guardians, (her  brother and his girlfriend) until they meet them formally, but every time they get a chance to meet them my parents are the ones who blow them off or **censor** something up. Then my mom told me to plan a cookout with them so i did, then my mom tells me that weekend doesn't work for her even though she told me her summer is completely open. I'm so sick of the closed minded and ignorant people in my life, i just want shit to work out.

I'm not talking just about art, I'm talking about in life on facebook on twitter places like that.. People are blind to the truth and take it as a hate comment when half the time it's not.. I don't see it as rude. I understand some people are like that ,but I think too many people are like that. I'm also not just talking constructive criticism, I mean truths that are so broad so obvious that people deny them, real world things, I know there is a point between constructive and downright being a troll, but people need to stick up more for the truth instead of following  lies.

on another note show me some of your art and I'll try to give you a critique on it ,but since I have no art skills myself it's kinda hard for me to fully judge art.

I would try and help but my studies haven't taken me to nightmares and dreams yet I am on ptsd atm...

Why is it I am the skinny smart kid that can't put on any weight no matter how many protein and weight shakes he drinks and how many peanut butter sandwhichs he eats with it? I am already mastering in some subjects in college and I just want a good life for a family I will never get and people put me down for trying. I will be a qualified anesthesiologist, Therapist, and any form of doctor...I am tired of it but I just want a good life

It irks me soooo **censor** bad when people try to explain to me "how amazing lsd is" or shrooms or any drug in general. Then I have to go off on them about why I don't need drugs to be happy, then i get the "lol how old are you?"  So **censor** frustrating.

This. Seriously. If people want to use drugs, it's their choice and risk to take, but it doesn't make them "cool" or "mature" or "intelligent" compared to someone who doesn't use them. If anything, parading their drug use around in such a fashion only shows they're the opposite of what they claim.

You're old enough to not do something stupid apparently. It'll be all fun and games until the cops catch them. Or they overdose. Or they screw up their health for life. Etc.
Maybe a response you could try is "Wow, you can do something illegal! I am in awe of your infinite wisdom"

I agree with the point that you don't need drugs to be happy, because it's so true. Happiness is something to be achieved through work and fulfillment. Drugs are just drugs, they don't even make you "happy" they just mess with your mind and give you a false sense of joy.

True happiness is a better high than any drug that could ever exist.

People harassing and killing officers. It really pisses me off, my dad being an officer and SWAT sniper leaves for work and there's a chance he won't come back... How about you don't call the police when your in danger?
Hearing my dad's stories, it worries me. What he see's, and does. Yet people are so blind and ignorant! Yes I understand some make mistakes or a few have been caught abusing their power... so all officers should be treated like monsters? Pathetic.
