This! We don't really have PTO in my commercial pest control job either. We have debt days, where we are given less than minimum wage for those days, then we're expected to make up services anyway. That's not a vacation. That's delayed stress.

When I was an Amazon driver, holidays weren’t really holidays. Nobody gets paid holidays. If the holiday falls on a day that you’re regularly scheduled, you have to make up that day to get your regular weekly hours. Would it kill the company to give everyone real paid holidays? Happy Labor Day.

I'm working on a short comic. Outline is done, script is in the works, and I have some concept art and designs The idea is, the two of them go ghost hunting together, as a ploy to get a date for the upcoming homecoming dance, but they encounter aliens instead. I swear it's not Dandandan

It'll suck, but getting certified in a trade guarantees work. Look for a company that will train you and pay for it. Best decision I ever made was to get my registered tech pesticide applicators licence. It's kept my bills paid and I am able to support my girlfriend.

That's what I'm assuming happened. They want to put that out there for the folks seeing it live, just enough to muddy the waters and make their investors happy, and then act like it was never said.
Arthur🎨 (@idreamofentropy.bsky.social) reply parent
The way they're trying to frame it as if the real problem with the industry is that it's not accessible to people without skill is hilarious. Requiring an artist to use their OWN work, not plagiarized work of a group of artists who are not them, is like, the bare fucking minimum. I'm so tired.

I saw this piece of shit for sale at an Ashley furniture. That means, someone just generated this piece of hot garbage, didn't bother to notice the three winged birds, said "good enough" and slapped it on a canvas. No one was paid to make this. It's less than worthless.

"B-but of you make AI companies respect copyright law, that'll destroy the industry 🥺" As if they aren't actively destroying the industry of artists by taking their only means of income, both active and passive, by making their copyright to their own work meaningless...

That's amazing, and definitely keep that passion for learning your craft. Just know, developing the skill is art in and of itself. You deserve it because you do it. The only people I can think of who don't get to call themselves artists for what they do are AI plagiarists.

If you make art, you're an artist. Drop the 'aspiring' from the title. Internalized capitalism has y'all unable to name your own identities. You don't have to sell it. You don't have to be well known. You don't even have to be good. You just have to make art.

People deify technological advancement, but forget that it's made by human beings and funded by people who would replace all workers with machines if they could. I don't think art is dead, but it sure is under attack. They sure do seem to hate artists most. Maybe it's because they're unaccomplished

White supremacists are largely unskilled and mediocre. They are talentless and are not willing to learn or grow. The only way they can think to get ahead is to bully and abuse. They want to be special and interesting but are objectively not, so they look for people to blame, bully, and abuse.

Okay, but who is cracker barrel trying not to offend by removing the white guy from their logo? Crackers? Their outrage is inconsistent too. I hate minimalist logos on principle. They're made simple to save money, not play political games. It's just so weird and annoying this became political.

In a world of excess, we should all be pissed to see people on the street going hungry. There are vacant houses. There's food waste enough to feed everyone. It's manufactured scarcity designed to keep us poor. We have enough. We just need to share. More than enough if we make our masters share.
