Let's just be honest with ourselves,
he mustn't have believed in shelves.
I'm not a neat freak or a snob,
but his studio, it repels.

Als Kriegsdienstverweigerer wirste bei Musterung gefragt »Ja und was tun Sie, wenn einer ihre Freundin vergewaltigen will?«
Klappt das mal auf die #Klimaaktivisten um und ersetzt:
›einer‹ = ›fossil-kapitalistische Zivilisation‹
›Freundin‹ = ›Lebensgrundlagen des Planeten‹
Analogie-Verknüpfung:
Siehe zB #FrancisBacon, frühe Neuzeit und #RapeCulture bzgl. Natur. Zitat aus #NaomiKlein »This Changes Everything« (2014), S. 170.

If Francis Bacon painted Henry Rollins' portrait, maybe.

#FrancisBacon ( #LordVerulam ) had some surprising insights into the ills created by printing. Or maybe this is all fabricated by #ChatGPT — I'm insufficiently familiar with Bacon's works to have an answer myself. Shame on #TylerCowen if he's disseminating lies.

I should throw more stuff out. Francis Bacon routinely destroyed work he was unhappy with.

I think red/blue color schemes can seem foreign or unsettling (ala #FrancisBacon), but that might be perfect for a sci-fi #shmup. I like the red/yellow you have below, too.
