dude it's just politics, it doesn't matter. all it does is shape every single aspect of the society you live in from the second you are born until forever

i could not survive in ancient greece i would be spending all my money on red figure kraters or whatever. my husband would come home like where did all of the funds for influencing votes go and i'd be like honey look this amphora's got achilles and ajax playing dice on it

[thoodleoo]

my wealthy husband: i thought i had some drachmas stashed away over here

If the trash pickup people stop doing their job for two weeks you'd be throwing a fucking tantrum. Same for the janitors who keep your office spaces and bathrooms clean. (And that's before the various illnesses start to spread all over your city from the build up of pathogens.)

The people responsible keeping our spaces clean (and thus, mostly disease-free) should both be paid more AND thanked more.

how it feels to become an active participant in your own life

best advice I have for therapy is that you can’t go in there expecting your shrink to be robin williams from good will hunting, or florence nightingale, or your mom, or god, or the emotional equivalent of a housekeeper. also can’t cede them the power of letting them be the primary source for your psychoeducation.

they’re not your superior, you’re not equals, they’re there to support you.

You are allowed to disagree with your therapist. You are allowed to say "I think you might be off-base about this." Sometimes they put the cart before the horse or don't understand your personal chronology. I'm seeing someone who wants to pin my quitting smoking on some other problems. No, these issues existed before I quit smoking, that's not an accurate assessment. She didn't seem to believe me because for her it would have been a very tidy cause -> effect. I had to clarify things for her. You are not correct. That's not what this is. Try again

You don't need to worry that you're going to hurt their feelings by disagreeing with them. You know your situation better than anyone else. You're allowed to course-correct. You're also allowed to say "I'm not comfortable talking about that right now." Sometimes you need to build trust with a therapist before you're ready to unpack certain things, and that's OK. Therapists aren't cops, they're not your parent or your boss, you are allowed to say no

 🛑 Stop Working for Exposure (Mathematically)

I'm an artist and medical student, and I use art to help me pay some bills.

I built a free, helpful tool because to help prevent other talented creatives from undercharging, as I really see this a lot online.

It's a calculator with a built in reality check

Input your survival costs and expenses

True billable hours

Get the rate you actually need to charge to hit a 20% (or whatever you choose) profit margin.

It generates the rate, a template negotiation email + final invoice.

Plan to keep this tool free, ad-free, and open to everyone.

🔗 Check your math: fairpaycalc.artres.xyz

If the "Thriving Rate" calculation empowers you to double your quote on your next job, please consider hitting the "Buy me a coffee"button. It keeps the server running and the code flowing <3

AL is creating web apps, art resources, and illustrations

I am an artist and medical student and creator of Art-Res, a blog where I write and curate art resources. Hopefully you find art that bring

[art-res]

Thank you for all who tried/spread awareness of the tool and also to people who tipped, truly touched by the support and it means the world! <3

Putting the term "male gaze" on top of the fridge until everyone remembers that it refers to a cinematographic trend and not the act of looking at things while being a man

There's lots of problems with USA public education but also a lot of you were just drawing Naruto characters kissing while your history teacher tried to tell you about the Scramble for Africa

awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?

[manuciruja]

i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users

[smadsel]

would be remiss not to mention that the rainbow notably straight up just removed the trans flag colors from it. like they’re gone. it’s the progress flag minus the trans flag colors.

[smadsel]

that’s not the whole flag, now is it
