Danger (and Art)

# So the thing is… people have become obsessed with avoiding danger these days. Problem is, danger is hard to avoid.

# The world is just chock full of danger! It’s our approach to it that gets us in trouble. People have forgotten that danger should be fun.

# If the world is already full of danger, doesn’t it make more sense to BE danger than to hide from it? That’s one reason I make sharp art.

# As Taelen Thomas once wrote: “I have thrown caution to the winds so many times/ the wind is almost full of caution.”

# You never get bored when you take those words to heart and live them. Trust me. I’ve done it. It was a good time.

# “Danger Will Robinson!” Correct response: “Fucking awesome, robot, let’s go get some!”

# Every life threatening situation I’ve *not* died in I was saved by skills I developed being entirely foolhardy. It’s practice.

(As ranted by @johntunger today. Found it too great to let it fall into Twitter oblivion and also couldn’t reweet all of it. Find John’s sharp art here.)
