"Reckless Entertainment..." (compilation post) by RFY (Holy Fool, Inc.)
2 comments
I graduated from high school at 17, and I thought I was SOOOOO smart... But I've gone back to my journals from that era, and I really REALLY wasn't smart at all. I was a "smart-ass," which is something, but it ain't great. If I hadn't kept a paper trail, if there was no evidence of my past mental prowess, (or lack thereof,) I could just lie about it. (FASHIONABLE!!!) But, sadly, I have proof that I was an idiot. LUCKILY, I've been promoted since then, all the way up to FOOL!!! YAY!!!

[Liner pen, gel pen, felt pen, and colored pencil on paper with digital embellishments and color.] Snakeman wishes he'd never gone to the BIG CITY. Now, he's trapped in an economic web...

So, so, so much fun!!! I should do a couple of these every day, but I'm lazy and old and tired... I'll try to do them more often (for ME, since I don't imagine many other peeps are affected, one way or the other! HA!)
P.S. - My portions of this piece, including the vocal recordings, artwork, and text, are cc0. The audio collaged elements that I stole from others are THEIRS, and I don't have the right to sell those. Therefore, this piece is being released for educational purposes only and is not for sale... If you enjoy any of the tunes in this list, consider buying a copy from the artist, especially if they have a Bandcamp page or physical media that you can get directly from them. Streaming services are convenient for listeners, but they don't do SHIT for the music makers... We seriously gotta support the ARTISTS, people...
Later skaters! Keep your eyes on the skies!!!
