Okay I’m making a little painting. Okay thanks.
Apprehending nature is the original sin
Opposing it is the inevitable result
Until synthetic unity is achieved
Thanks for sharing this, I’ll keep in mind once I have a draft worth reviewing!

You’re totally right! I just have to complain about it online first.
