Over the years of attempting to create an online presence, the rather specific frustration of the difference in attention paid to certain types of posts has become a point of fury tinged frustration. Recently, upon starting an Instagram account, my sister encountered a nigh identical phenomenon. She chronicled the reaction in cartoon form. I'm shortcutting the blog this week to share. I will provide a text version of the captions:
1. Hours, blood, sweat, tears poured into piece (piece being fiction or drawing, pick your twin)
2. Shares piece to social meida. 0 comments, 0 shares. 2 likes, from your mother and your sister.
3. Takes a selfie, or draws a bored scribble, posts that to social media.
4. Likes, shares, comments come pouring in.
5. WHY???
6. We're still each other's biggest fans, and that's okay.
Thak you for readng/ viewing,
