Hence why I didn’t say people who don’t do it are lazy. Laziness is an inherently capitalist ideal, saying that those who aren’t constantly working are somehow lesser. However, those who don’t at least try tend to quote the idea of a “lack of talent”, which is simply not true or helpful. Everyone is able to draw, though some may need some help in doing so. It’s part of being alive.

Sir, that is a kidney.

I despise whenever someone talks like this about drawing. Everyone can draw. Nobody was born being able to make masterpieces from day one. It’s not some mystical arte that only those with the Chosen One gene can do. It all comes down to a willingness to try and to learn. That’s it. Using “talent” to bar yourself from doing so is only doing yourself a disservice. Even drawing silly little stick men is still practice, and I can attest to that from both first and second-hand experience. Just pick up a pencil, or boot up paint on a computer (but please, at least download paint.net or something), and you’ll find that you can indeed draw, you just have to do it enough to gain confidence. It’s like walking, or driving a car. I don’t see anyone saying that some people have innate driving talent and some don’t.

I said, “My Grandma was from a place known for making bombs.”

It guessed “Gaza”
