Thinking about the line in this post about being able to create something that looks like the same mass produced “content” that’s ubiquitous nowadays using AI/apps/algos/buttons, shines a high-pressure sodium spotlight on the devaluing of art, music, poetry, etc. In an age that has reduced these media to simply “content” and their makers to “content creators,” it’s interesting to see how we’re constantly fed the tools (“OMG you HAVE to try this new app! Just give it a prompt!”) to make more “content” over and over, separating us from our authenticity and, by that same right, our wholeness. I love how you contextualize seeking to be “more you” as an act of defiance. What else could it be in the age we live in?
Also, if I commissioned a Nudie suit to be made out of clear plastic, would it be a Nude Nudie Suit? 🤔
I'm 1000% on board for this nudie-nudie-suit, Neon. *casually makes a note for next year's birthday*....(a birthday suit? bah!)
It's bizarre, right? That just fucking being yourself is somehow this extra transgressive act in the face of contentification aka enshitification of ...everything...
Always looking for new crafty methods of defiance over here, you know me!
20% MORE Lisette?!? YES!!!
HAHAHA! AW!! Ela, thanks for this energetic hug & your abiding support for my Lisette-ness. xoxo
As always, a fun and though provoking romp!

You’re onto something with this Lisette!
And I had never heard of a nudie suit. At least not the kind in your link!
