Artist folks of Twitter: do you ever just look at what you& #39;re doing and the way everything is going right now and think, WTF am I even doing here? What does this work even accomplish?

Like, "the whole west coast is on fire and we& #39;re already up to our eyes in a fascist takeover and there& #39;s a crazy disease that may just keep killing us until we& #39;re all dead but anyway here& #39;s some photos of abandoned stuff for your Twitter edification, IDK WTF else to do either."

My own work feels stupid and frivolous to me in light of everything else is I guess what I& #39;m getting at, but it& #39;s all I really know how to do https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😕" title="Verwirrtes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Verwirrtes Gesicht">

PS, I& #39;m not saying this to be like "woe is me, the poor mopey photographer", but, you know, a lot of us are going through it. And I define art as a thing which one is passionate about, so it& #39;s got a pretty broad definition. Thanks also for the kind words https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥰" title="Smiling face with 3 hearts" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with 3 hearts">

I& #39;ve noticed a bunch of people who feel like this - like they feel guilty for not writing their great novel during the pandemic, or for feeling uninspired to work. I don& #39;t mean it to just be about me https://twitter.com/sun_cel/status/1305608366958489602">https://twitter.com/sun_cel/s...
