Oddly enough? Yes.

The same thing she got publicly fisted , truly fistfucked in effing effigy-for doing a month ago he’s getting lauded for at Cannes replete with showers of roses cast and ten minute standing ovations.

Like…Riiiight now.

Or like yesterday, or something.

Nowww ~ is hē able to be called a courageous Arthead extravaganza on display who courageously sold his winery to fund the 200 million dollar epic 40 years in the making when he was supposedly worth (only) 250 million(according to Forbes)?

Sure.

Fine.

But then shē technically- having spent 20 to 40 million of her (supposed) 400million net worth…to underwrite her own epic 30 years in the making… technically shouldn’t be burnt at the stake.

In my opinion, both are expressions of Arthead…artheading.

Giving no fucks.

Both have been unapologetic about where their manifestations of arthead have taken them. & both can do whatever the fuck they want with their own money, technically.

…Am I saying it is the same caliber of Art?

… thaaaaat lowkey remains to be seen because some are dancing their balled up fists towards mister C’s bum (thumbs out) just as willfully as they pummeled Mrs L as they made her take hers. To the face as much as the ass, mind you.

full disclosure: they may be the exact same folks, hating on all things, real talk.

HOWEVER…I AM not Saying…that they are the same calibre.

This risk- taking may be new for J-Lo… as a creative. But she officially hopped her ass up onto that spectrum and swung for it. Even if y’all beaned her with bats after the fact.

They are flexing the exact same arthead muscle. That really needs to be recognized without any flack.

& any patriarchy padding y’all wanna extend to Coppola for having the balls to the fall of Babylon the fuck out. . . She deserved too.

Now… I’m an Amazon by default, with a feral, gorgeous re-parented innerchile in tow.

I do whatever I want and can to the best of my geist & being a girl means fuck all when it comes to impingement or whatever with me. I don’t whinge on that card because fuck that card. Seeing your art through that card is a choice at best and a ploy on lesser days to be graded on a fucking curve in your own mind. Nobody can put that bullshit dress on you without you zipping it up Emperor’s New Clothes style to parade around, thinking it’s getting you something and somewhere. If you’re waving that flag you’re fucking complicit. Doesn’t matter what THEY compare you to. You only bitch when you believe the assignation your damned self.

Like the Necromancer said in that Riddick trilogy…

You keep what you kill.

…but you also keep… what you let them kill in you. & it’s like walking around with an infected root canal gangrenous in your mouth, blaming everyone else with a penis or more (or less) melanin than you as whimmer you can’t do real art.

Lowkey it’s at the root of all your sicknesses and insecurities as an artist. That self nurtured public permeability.

…but even my choose your own arthead adventure ass can see the bullshit wannabe double standards being wielded by fucks sans the Baja to do ANYTHING Solo in this day & age…trying to impress themselves & their armchair at best, huddler at most likely takes upon the arcs of those with cajones to go make SOMETHING they want to see made for their own hearts.

THIS messianic, mechanical hootenanny of praise Coppola is getting for talking himself into finally taking a chance …by 21st century clout chasers crowing this is the best because they’ve Been Told he’s the best but sodomizing others who aren’t old white dudes who do it… is what’s fucking wrong with the playing field right now.

Not joshing those who Feel he’s the best due to actual impact of his work on their hearts.

To them I say

“Kampai, & it’s cool to see you stuck around 40 years for ya boy.”

But …Something terrible has happened to us. & it’s worse than the reductivism we all saw gaining steam as we artistically entered this century.

Idinteven Fuq with Jennifer Lopez like that (outside of Acting & thaaaaat banger Get Right- then again I am a virgo, so 😏 according to her that may be celestial 🤗-)

BUT…She brandished the arthead ballz first to put her money where her mouth was as an artist & I’m giving her the bona fide props for it.

It doesn’t matter if YOU liked what she had to say.

…the MUSCLE IS THE POINT .

REINTRODUCing the masses to the fucking utilization Of the arthead muscle that the brain is... is the point.

Look-

…Is the fucking point of making the money hand over fist just sitting there dizzily counting it in terror, scared to do Anything daring on your own as an artist? Is the point making tchotchkes, preening liiiiike your ass is commercially flowing , following in the steps of Picasso and Warhol?

Say it with me!

NOooooooo~.

There’s all this clamoring to be seen as a true creative artist but cheering on the real balls to do so at all levels is so mindnumbingly rare these days.

And that ? To me? That is why Jennifer Lopez gets her fucking flowers for going for it….& getting atop that fn pyre of public opinion like f ureaking Joan of Arc in a literal glass house… first.

A few weeks ahead of Mr. Coppola to the market.

I’m discerning what the actual fire IS.

…and the only thing that is going to drag the whole thing out of this stupidly robotic, hellish hitting all the rote marks of shit state that everything has devolved to… is those at the J-Lo end of the spectrum as well as the Coppola side of the creative storm…REMINDING US-THEM- EVERYONE- how to make that arthead thing[ 🧠 ]…move.

If them throwing the money at you silenced you as an artist…it fucked you over.

If chasing the money silenced your truth as an artist … it Fucked you over.

But it’s in your hands to stop being a cuck or a bloated potentate about it. Creatively speaking.

Please, please for the love of God. ..see the possibilities in the new, insanely gorgeous golden age that’s about to be afoot.

…&maybe…somebody…somewhere…needs to coordinate a Coppola marathon to pregame Megalopolis. Before sucking his….

I’m not saying it’s unwarranted!

LOL- I’m saying there’s a difference between blowing the man based on what you’ve been told …and studying to show yourself approved…and to discern whether or not he deserves the extra old flick of the…ovation from you.

… from you & your pov for real.

yeah, alot of things are looking like lackluster head these days, regardless of genders giving & receiving.

but I gotta believe this is the slowly stirring awake from the lull before the creative storm.

…it’s supposed to be the fucking Apocalypse, for fucks sake!
