What's on your mind?

Well, I need to let out some steam about what it means to be professional.
First off, I'm willing to admit it: I can be unprofessional at times. My emotions can really get in the way of my thinking, no thanks to my having autism, and it's one reason why I have little to no interest in being an established musician.
One thing I've grown enough common sense to avoid now, though, is making scenes out of stuff that shouldn't have been publicized. Meanwhile, a well-established dark synth musician, who shall remain nameless here, only messaged me once, and a while ago, to talk down to me about my past imagery choices and how unprofessional it made me look, only for him to prove himself a hypocrite last night. According to a post he made on his own business page, he almost got accepted for a local publication but then gave the publication the finger because of his Satanic beliefs. Refusing to be publicized by a particular jounal is one thing, but making a scene out of something that wouldn't have been publicly known otherwise is another. :P Saddest part is, many of the people I know are rushing to his support despite his unprofessional beheavior and how it arguably makes him look worse than some of what I've said in the past.
Needless to say, I need some time to calm down. Hopefully will spend some of that time being more productive than he ever will be, including by way of doing my homework for my drawing class...
