> Have some appreciation--even awe--for the art you enjoy.

Haha, no.

Artists aren’t some gift from God here to bestow the world with joy from the heavens that we should all marvel at.

They are people who chose to learn a skill capable of outputting something suitable for consumption as entertainment.

As such, it is their job to be putting out these works regularly, just like everyone else.

Appreciation is nice, but doesn’t matter. Everyday people do mundane things that you have no idea how to do and probably go unappreciated, yet they are more necessary than any sort of “art”. Take art down from the pedestal please.
