Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

recognizing a lot of social expectations are actually labor issues can be pretty grounding/freeing
Models? it's their job to be professionally pretty.
Actors/performers? it's their job to be professionally entertaining.
Artists/creatives? It's their job to be professionally imaginative.

AND supporting your local library is super important! If you actually DO want books to be available to everyone, the library *already exists* and is staffed by the people who are deep in the trenches of fighting censorship! Supporting the library is doing actual good for your community!

Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.
It's $5, not your first-born child! I need that $5 for health insurance!

I’ve been drawing free stuff for the internet for the past 15 years, I got paid for a couple things.
You call me petite bourgeoisie I will make your nose meet the back of your skull with my fist

Honestly, people calling creators the "petite bourgeoisie" makes me want to snap.
We're working folk. And we work really hard. For next to nothing.
We're not lounging around eating bonbons. We're trying to figure out how we're going to be able to pay rent next month.

Want to know how I think you can TRULY honor Thanksgiving?
SHORTEN THE WORK WEEK. We should be having a giant meal and family gathering way more often than we do, America.
The 4-Day work week is a step in that direction.
