20250925: artistry and money management
recently i've noticed so many furry artists cry for commissions if not directly ask for monetary aid, for one reason or another; even those with tens of thousands of followers with egregious prices.
and i ask myself about the root of this: are so many people that bad with money management? if commissions don't come for those more popular, have you tried lowering prices? we love the market when people pays hundreds and hundreds of dollars for a drawing, but then also ask for donations? something is not working there.
have you tried to look for a job? i also don't like to work in a 8-5 job, but it pays the bill. does crying online work so well? maybe it's the new internet meta.
