i feel like there’s this weird thing in punk communities that you always have to be making things. everyone always bemoaning “oh, i haven’t done art in so long!” & yeah that sucks, & making art is cool, but i think we all need to give ourselves & our friends permission to not be creating all the time. think about what else you are doing. if it’s something that makes you feel good, like hanging out with your friends, going to shows, cuddling with your partner, then there is no shame in not creating. and even if it’s things you aren’t crazy about, like watching tv or being a barfly, still, you are still a cool person, still a creative person. don’t beat yourself up because then you will only feel like shit & you will still not be making anything but also you will be sad.
