Guys, if you want to be a good artist and storyteller you need to absorb other media and influences beyond popular comics and movies and video games. Hell, even beyond visual art. Read novels, science articles, history books. Listen to podcasts, watch documentaries. Dip into different disciplines. Explore stuff outside your everyday. What you create and the pool of ideas you can pull out of is expanded by the knowledge you gain. Don’t do yourself a disservice by limiting your library. You never know when some weird shit you read about mushrooms could end up inspiring you or helping you solve a design/story problem.
the only beings on earth im interested in appeasing are cats, i’ll fucking humiliate myself to the utmost degree so that a cat will like me, i will be the biggest clown around just to get a cat’s attention. i refuse to give this preferential treatment to any other lifeforms.
