ok so...much has happened since a --> to be.
I'm going to come back another time and post something proper, but for the time being - I'd be interested in ppl's thoughts on Erk's new set. I'm sure she is a sweet girl and I've addressed this with her directly, so it's more of a discussion about the ethical treatment of animals rather than anything specific with her.
So! What do we think, ladies and gents?
This is what I posted on her blog, just to get things rolling:
hi...beautiful set except for, as you yourself mentioned in your blog, the dead animals. Taxidermy as an art form...I can appreciate this - especially if you'd be for the exact same treatment of dead children and adults stuffed and hung on walls. I know this sounds extreme and I'm really not an extreme person, it's just a case in point. Our sociology and the Faucaultian discourse guides our lives and we have to fuck authority sometimes to realize what is ethical and what is not. This set would have been a gem had you made a statement against murdering other sentient beings...especially for sport.
Haha - now wouldn't Gary Ridgway have just LOVED it if killing people for sport was legal and even condoned? Hmm.
Thanks for reading, I know this probably wasn't the funnest comment to get.
