Passion Tax is so real. I've never known an artist who wasn't just scraping by -- even the ones you think are successful. Even the ones working in studio.
It makes you feel like you're insane, fighting for scraps.

this "passion tax" appears all over the place & should be talked about more. you see it in book stores and game stores all the time
excitement for particular work is constantly weaponized to depress wages & pit workers against each other

same for artists. no artist is burnt out because their workload would be less with AI or their project managing software could be assisted by AI.
we’re burnt out because our work is not respected enough. what we do is seen as disposable and replaceable, rather than valuable.

No, authors aren't burnt out because "writing without AI is slow"
We're burnt out because we're paid dirt so we need day jobs to survive

I miss drawing so much. I hate retail, I hate being inactive for weeks on end, I hate not having any energy to finish anything, I hate having to pretend I'm a different person at work all the time, I hate that I actively see my skill constantly degrading from lack of use.

Visa is easy but you have to trick the phone tree with Mastercard
1. select option that you have a card
2. select option to for account info
3. press a few random buttons when asked to give ur card, wait until it transfers you to an agent
4. Request to file a complaint abt discriminatory practices

I got through to Mastercard and the supervisor I spoke to said they're actually aware of this, they've received multiple calls and it's been escalated to their global HQ and they're awaiting a response. KEEP CALLING!!

“banning pornography” is bad on its own but it is imperative that everyone understand that these people consider the very existence of queer people to be pornographic
they consider the most chaste depiction of a queer relationship, or an openly trans person, to be porn and they want it banned

You don’t have to like, approve of, or engage with porn and nsfw work to see how right wing extremists are using fear and stigma around smut to ban queer people from public life, define “good” sex as only between married people for procreation, and otherwise further force white supremacy on everyone

Finished this yesterday, will read it again soon. A constant reminder of the dangers that centrism and the civility politics of neoliberals. The sort of way of thinking I got into, the sort of thinking I never want again.
Get it, read it, make others do the same.

I had my first art interview ever recently!
I was rejected, but it showed me that I wasn't completely stuck. I don't think I'll be pursuing art anymore, but that means I can reclaim my drawings for myself :3c Here's a little fursona doodle while I work on more things

There have been plenty of horrendous days for America and today is no exception. What a horrific, sadistic, and stupid bill. I have nothing to express but anger and sorrow at this moment.

As an artist I think one of the important advice I heard is “do not deprecate yourself from feeling emotions, it is what helps you most when you need motivation to create” and I couldn’t agree more with that
