Writers and artists will give you a 10,000 word essay or an entire comic strip about how much they love the craft

but do not consider themselves a writer or artist

because they are misinterpreting their lack of professional polish as a lack of quality or worth

without realizing that a lack of professional polish is sometimes warranted in the thing being created

and this lack is sometimes (sometimes often) desired by the audience wishing to consume and be consumed by the work

can we reintroduce “disturbing” back into the popular lexicon in place of most uses of “traumatizing”

“This experience puts me in a worse mental state and my well-being will be compromised…”

  • Discomfort: “…until the stimulus is removed; there’s a chance I will have forgotten about this experience by tomorrow” (“I got rained on, I need a hot shower”)
  • Distress: “…for the rest of the day, but probably no more than a week; I may require some level of care and social support to make it more bearable” (“I had to sleep in the freezing rain without shelter, I might need to take a few days off work”)
  • Trauma: “…for months or years, potentially forever; this experience may have fundamentally changed part of who I am and I will need to dedicate time and resources towards recovery and healing” (“I lost some toes to frostbite and every time I see my feet I am reminded of the time I thought I would die”)

• Annoyance: "...not really, I just don't like it and will sort it out as soon as I can." ("It was raining and while I'm wearing a good raincoat I got some water droplets on my glasses.")

Altogether, I really like the way americans say "can I help you?" as a polite general one-size-fits-all stand-in for "who the fuck are you/what the fuck are you doing here/how the fuck did you get in here/what the fuck are you staring at/what is your fucking problem." Such a polite way of going "bitch what the fuck."
