There are a lot of people who start creative projects with no business or financial plan, because "who cares, it isn't important, we'll figure that out later". And you can't let yourself become that person. Not because I'm a sneering finance bro who thinks your woke animated youtube series wont make money, but because if you don't you'll wind up financially exploiting your friends for years
Look, it's none of my business if you wanna work yourself to the bone for no money so you can make your dream project a reality. I think you shouldn't, but also let's be real that's basically a rite of passage for young creatives. But as soon as you start involving other people? You need a plan. You need to be able to compensate them for their time, and you need to have it in writing
head in my hands, as someone who does extensive freelance TTRPG work - an industry in which the vast majority of those involved are doing it as a passion project/side hustle, and in which many people are friends with those they work for and with:
if you are doing any creative project with someone else in which money will be involved, make a contract. Doesn't need to be super formal. Get something laid out in writing that very clearly indicates what the person you are asking to do something is responsible for, the timeline in which they're expected to complete it, and the compensation they'll get for doing so.
"oh but we've been best friends since eighth grade" make a fucking contract.
"oh but this probably won't make much money anyway" make a fucking contract.
"oh but I don't know all that legalese" there are tons of pretty accessible templates available online if you research, just make sure it's one that suits your needs and you understand what's in it (it can be written in normal language without legalese, as long as it's clear), and make a fucking contract.
I've heard horror stories about this shit destroying projects, friendships, livelihoods, and in most cases the fallout could have been avoided (or at least mitigated) by having a clear legally binding document about everyone's responsibilities and compensation from the get-go. Do not assign someone work without a contract or some form of written agreement; do not work without a contract or some form of written agreement. please for the love of god.
The popularity of the "incompetent stupid piece of shit husband and competent wife who loves him anyways" trope in media is a psyop to make women believe its normal to settle for an incompetent stupid piece of shit husband
But if a woman acted incompetent once then she will be literally crucified in the street and she's evil for manipulating her husband into settling for less and suddenly it's not a silly endearing sitcom trope 🤔

Gentle notice that “highbrow” and “lowbrow” are eugenics/race science terms and it may be better to just quietly retire them in casual discussions of art
hello instagram artist. your challenge is to do a portrait study of a woman but you’re not allowed to stylize them so their eyes are really big and more cat eyed than the reference photo. You’re also not allowed to make their noses more of a button nose or their lips full and pouty or their faces heart shaped with no double chin. Also you have to draw a fat woman. one thats actually fat and not just slightly curvier than the kpop demon hunters body type. good luck
Anis are bizarre, coal-black cuckoos with long floppy tails and unique, curiously tall, flattened bills. Groove-billed occurs in a variety of open and semi-open habitats in tropical lowlands and foothills, typically staying low in shrubs and grasses. Gregarious and not particularly graceful; usually seen crashing around awkwardly in small groups.
groove billed anis are a hilarious cuckoo situation where they ended up laying their eggs in one another’s nests instead of anyone else’s. they hang out together in groups of up to five pairs until a nest gets built (sometimes by committee, sometimes they just hang around hopefully until someone does it all on their own) then they start sneaking over and laying an egg in at a time. the females who lay for the first time will sometimes flip prior eggs out of the nest like ‘oh i KNOW this one isn’t mine! away it goes’ but eventually everyone’s laid a couple eggs in there and is stuck with the mutual hostage situation. then they take turns incubating until all the kids hatch and everyone pitches in on feeding them, because no one knows which of the kids are theirs so they all might as well.
they also like to do a team handshake where they clump up and mutually make a low bubbling noise together, to signal group affiliation. go team!
Also their eggs are incredibly beautiful. They’re a very pretty blue color, but covered by a white chalky outer layer that is easily scratched off, so they end up in various stages of in-between.
It’s been so many hours, adhd is strong (I really need to try taking my meds again) and I’m not stronger, but if I just sit here long enough there’s nothing it can do to stop me
Anyways yeah if ever you want me to draw a bird photo just ask because it is a goal of mine to be unlike the countless people who just draw people, and make sure I always draw birds too, and it’s hard because there’s a lot less resources and tricks for bird drawing on account of most humans having the common interest of drawing other humans whereas to draw birds is a skill you can go a very long time without. Anyways, please send me birds to draw, I’m not letting myself be eaten up by an entirely mammalian status quo. I don’t really know where I’ve gone I’m kinda derailing.
Hey, i dont have a fancy pricings image for it, but
Our commissions are officially open! (again...)
we're 18 and living on our own in an apartment (albeit with support) and we do not have a job nor the ability to get one currently.
art is currently our only form of income other than disability money that is currently not even paying us what theyre supposed to be paying us and is therefore not giving us enough to Live. so.!
Commissions Open! Click to see CIRCUITBOARD's commission menu.
go here ^ and spend money on us (£25) and we will draw you something like this v
or maybe even like this if you spend more of it (£60) v
(transparent bg version also included..!!)
additionally you may also donate if you'd like. if you toss us a request in the donation message and add your tumblr url we can make you a small doodle (assuming it fits within our TOS of course), but you don't have to. anything is greatly appreciated 👍we dont know how to be an adult. does anyone?
we're still not being paid in full despite repeatedly calling to get it sorted and because of this we're actively bleeding money. we've been resting at an average of less and less each month and i'm genuinely worried that we'll run out in about three or four months if we cant get this sorted. if you can't afford a full comm right now, you're free to donate something smaller if you'd like. we're struggling to afford food right now, and anything is appreciated

Redoing my mutual aid post as the other post is very big but with not many donations. I'm in between checks and unable to do much writing due to very intense burnout, I don't know when I'll get paid next. um! So yeah, if you'd like to support a Black nonbinary lesbian, your favorite horror author's favorite horror author, drop some coins! Pretty much supporting my whole family so really everything is swell.
help a disabled trans lesbian get more ergonomic computer peripherals to reduce hand pain
*remaking because previous post lost traction*
hey all, as you may or may not know, I have a condition called guillain-barre syndrome that has caused, among other things, my hands to be partially paralyzed, making typing and using a mouse more difficult and painful. my physical and occupational therapists have suggested I look into getting an ergonomic mouse and keyboard that would be less strain on my hands and wrists, and if anyone can help me do that it'd be greatly appreciated~!
Another few pages done after 40 years! Thank you to the patrons who doodled and decorated on page 2! Thank you to @abananasaurus , @moon-wolfie ,@bloody-hugs, @the-one-teapot, @sp00kybl00ky, Tobi , and CaptainAllBlue!
"Suicide survivor" (again, not someone who survived a suicide attempt) is truly impressive as a concept. They managed to make a group even more repulsive than just "parent"
My kid killed themselves because I was awful, I'm going to start a charity that yells at newspapers for saying "committed suicide" instead of "completed suicide" or something, they really should be more considerate to us Suicide Survivors (knew someone who killed themselves) (not people who survived a suicide attempt)

True info. Now let me add something: The power of documentation. (I was a long time steward in a nurses union.)
Remember: The "'E" in email stands for evidence.
That cuts both ways. Be careful what you put into an email. It never really goes away and can be used against you.
But can also be a powerful tool for workplace fairness.
Case 1: Your supervisor asks you to do something you know is either illegal or against company policy. A verbal request. If things go wrong, you can count on them denying that they ever told you to do that. You go back to your desk, or wherever and you send them an email: "I just want to make sure that I understood correctly that you want me to do xxxxx" Quite often, once they see it in writing, they will change their mind about having you do it. If not, you have documentation.
Case 2: You have a schedule you like, you've had that schedule for a while, it works for you. Your supervisor comes to you and says "We're really short-handed now and I need you to change your schedule just for a month until we can get someone else hired. It's just temporary and you can have your old schedule back after a month." A month goes by and they forget entirely that they made that promise to you. So, once again, when they make the initial request, you send them an email "I'm happy to help out temporarily, but just want to make sure I understand correctly that I will get my old schedule back after a month as you promised." Documentation.
[Image ID: Text reading: In the middle of a busy clinic at our practice, I got pulled in by my manager to speak to HR, who must have made a special trip because she lives several states away, and told I was being 'investigated' for discussing wages with my other employees. She told me it was against company policy to discuss wages.
Me; That's illegal.
Them: (start italics) three slow, long seconds of staring at me blankly (end italics) Uh...
Me: That's an illegal policy to have. The right to discuss wages is a right protected by the National Labor Relations board. I used to be in a union. I know this.
HR: Oh, this is news to me! I have been working HR for 18 years and I never knew that. Haha. Well try not do do it anyway, it makes people upset, haha.
Me: people are entitled to their opinions about what their work is worth. Bye.
I then left, and sent her several texts and emails saying I would like a copy of their company policy to see where this wage discussion policy was kept. She quickly called me back in to her office.
HR: You know what, there is no policy like that in the handbook! I double check. Sorry about the confusion, my apologies.
Me: You still haven't given me the paper saying that we had this discussion. I am going to need some protection against retaliation.
HR: Oh haha yes here you go.
I just received a paper with legal letterhead and an apology saying there was no verbal warning or write up. Don't even take their shit you guys. Keep talking about wages. Know your worth. /End ID]
At one of my old (shit) jobs my boss would continually come have these verbal discussions with me and would never put anything in writing I took to summarizing every discussion we had in email. Like “just to confirm that you asked me to do X by Y date and you understand that means I won’t be able to complete the previous task you gave me until Z date - 2 weeks later than originally scheduled - because you want me to prioritize this new project.
The woman would then storm back into my office screaming at me for putting the discussion in writing and arguing about pushing back the other project or whatever. At which point I would summarize that conversation in email as well. Which would bring her storming back in, rinse and repeat ad nauseum.
Anyway I cannot imagine how badly that job would have gone if I hadn’t put all her wildly unreasonable demands in writing. Bitch still hated me but she could never hang me for “missing deadlines” because I always had in writing that she’d pushed the project back because she wanted something else done first.
Paper your asses babes. Do not let them get away with shit. If they won’t put what they’re asking you to do in writing then write it up yourself and email it to them.
Does anyone have that one story of the lady who worked at a bank or something and management tried to can her, but she had evidence or something that ended up having her win a lawsuit? If I recall that story had both evidence, and the importance of employee communication as a co-worker tipped her off so she made sure she had an evidence papertrail
