Literally this.
I known the tax % is different in every country, but putting a good 1/4th or (even better in some places) 1/3rd of anything you make to the side for taxes is a very smart move
Does it suck? Eh yeah! But getting a massive tax bill and not having the money to pay it sucks even harder

FREELANCER TIP: THE 25% RULE!
The MOMENT payment hits your bank account, calculate 25% of the value of the invoice and then transfer that amount immediately to a savings account and DO NOT TOUCH IT. THAT'S FOR TAXES. Then pay yourself the remaining 75%. Account for this when determining rates!!!

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far
i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

As a corollary to this: there are a lot of artists who will black-list you from BUYING art if you have AI slop in your profile. Seeing AI is an instant, immediate red flag for most artists because it's a signal that you do not respect artists (yes, that includes using it "until I can get real art").
Just so you know...
Art directors, Art enjoyers, Art buyers and Artists talk with each other. Nobody wants AI slop, specially when there is real art out there as an alternative. You can totally get blacklisted, not only on the industry, but inside fandoms for defending AI precarization and theft.

i still cant fathom how this and atlantis were box office flops. like i was Tiny when it was all going on so i dont know if The Mouse was just bad at marketing these or what because ive always found them to be these fantastic works of reinterpreted fantastical fiction that we just dont get anymore

@anisota.net is an experimental social client (and game!) for Bluesky and the AT Protocol
i built it for me because i'm kinda weird and needed an equally weird way to experience social media 🕯️
