Commodification
Surely (one of) the biggest evils of this time. The need to commodify EVERYTHING we do! All our innate creativity is instantly rinsed through the gauze of capitalism. Ideas consumed with how to market it, monetise it, make more of it, make it better, make it faster, churn it out, make it different, USP’ism, how much can I make how much is it worth how much how much how much.. pppffttt..
Honestly. I’m not playing any more. All this; gestures in general at the internet; is UTTER BOLLOCKS. I got swept along as easily as the next person out there “trying” to do a thing… to survive. But it’s not real.. not really. At best, gestures around in general at the internet; all this is a space to plonk some nice pictures and move on. At it’s worst it is a comparison site, a competition leader board, a contrived ego palace to strut and display and sell sell sell. All this gestures around at the general internet; is set up to appeal to our lesser nature; because, who wants to die and be forgotten!? At least a digital footprint might remain somewhere for digital historians in the future to uncode, our faces beaming out of a pixelated mess, shaken voices trying to pretend the shitshow of our lives wasn’t actually a shitshow.
Anyway, long story short, that’s why I’ve decided to make Propper Club free.. with an option to buy me a coffee or help pay for the website or something if you like it that much. It makes way more sense to my anarchist tendencies. I’d rather people had a choice to take it than pretend I’m some lofty source of information worthy of payment. That is bollocks. Literally all the information is out there for free anyway, I’ve just put it together with some pictures and I’ve had fun doing it. It doesn’t need to get much more complex than that! I’m sick of driving myself mental trying to hustle a ‘niche’. That’s exactly what “THEY”, you know, the tech-bro cunts, are trying to get us to do and it only really benefits them in the long run. Give shit away I say! Have fun creating it, but give it away!
Not my plants though.. you can fucking buy those ffs… if you want.
