I advocate quality over number go up. Yet it's also criminal how gatekeepers and taste makers, even here, will ghost organic community, the bard class, or divert focus from acknowledging the IMMENSE and diverse talent of independent artists right here.

Which is overtly zero because artists out here rocking solidarity in venues that respect our collective agency.
