This series is created and shared using the very tools built and controlled by elites. I use unregulated social media platforms to share my original artwork, and I use ChatGPT solely as a tool for grammar, clarity, and research support. All creative concepts, ideas, and finished pieces are my own.

I welcome and encourage criticism in hopes it sparks broader discussions around internet-based platforms, their impact, and the urgent need for accountability.

Note: In the U.S., there is currently no right to opt out of your work being used to train AI, and no right to compensation for it.

We talk about oil as pollution-because it is.
It chokes ecosystems, poisons water, reshapes coastlines. But we rarely ask a different kind of question:

What if oil served a purpose before we ever extracted it?

Maybe it isn’t Earth’s waste.
Maybe it’s more like bone marrow or synovial fluid- something that regulates, stabilizes, or stores energy deep within Earth’s internal systems.

We’ve built an entire global economy on extraction, without understanding what we’re removing.

Shouldn’t oil companies be required to fund independent research into what role oil might have played in Earth’s long-term balance?

We require pharmaceutical companies to fund 75% of the FDA’s drug approval process.
Why aren’t oil companies required to do the same for planetary health?

We know they’ve funded misinformation.
We know they’ve shaped policy through power and lobbying. And still—they’re not required to fund even a fraction of climate or systems research.

We’ve studied what oil does to us. But we haven’t asked what oil was doing for the Earth.

What do you think oil’s original role might be?

Our third eye strains under the weight of pixels smothering it.

Your brain is plastic. You become what you obsess over. The content you consume shapes your thoughts, emotions, and even behaviors. This is why intentionality matters, what you expose yourself to reinforces specific mental loops, for better or worse.

Who are you giving your power to, and for what convictions?

I painted with color! Doing scary things lol!
