It’s so cool to have hitched your wagon 20 years ago to an industry that was booming beyond anyone’s expectations and have it turn out to be stripmined and utterly hollowed out by Shareholder Value, and every other industry you could slot into has been, surprise, hollowed out by Shareholder Value

fellow non-tattoo artists:
how would you feel about collaborating with me on a flash sheet of *your* art?
it would work like this: you design a flash sheet with sizes/prices for each design (ranging from $20-$40). I charge a flash rate a bit lower than my usual ($80-$200

tattooing has been a bizarre industry for me to enter because the blatant theft is SO rampant. embarrassing to imagine competing for the title of ink “master” when you can’t even bother to draw a unique design for your own boyfriend…

this is how it is for most of us. I’ve pirated nearly every show I’ve ever worked on. the studios don’t provide memberships to their platforms for the people who make their shows, or even just provide a way to watch the things we worked on.
Fun reminder that Dana had to pirate the Owl House herself because Disney wouldn't provide her with a way to see the premier episode. 🙃

I genuinely could not care less about what people buy with food stamps. I wouldn't even give a shit if they used them to buy cigarettes and vodka

Zohran is stone cold man. Putting out an ad in Arabic after all the Islamophobic shit that’s been thrown his way? Pure swag.
Dems don’t need to copy his politics or even necessarily his campaign strategy, they need to learn how to grow a fucking spine.

As SNAP hangs in the balance for nearly 42 million people, misinformation is rampant. Myths of laziness and fraud persist when we should be talking about too low wages for workers, income inequality, and our threadbare social safety net.

increasingly convinced that the only people who actually give a fuck about stealing/plagiarism/etc, are people who create things that can be stolen, because those who don't, just don't seem to understand the gravity of it and do not fucking care
