Hey, no homo, but I am sitting on the broken swing set out back in the perfect, quiet, 2:00am blackness and picturing the softness of your voice and the darkness of your eyes with such perfect and terrible clarity that it feels like I'm choking on my own heartbeat.

My boyfriend was showing me his cat and I leaned over to kiss the cat on his soft little baby head and he went "meow" and scrambled away because I'd been wearing my headphones and I accidentally jabbed him with the microphone.

And I said "Damn, this is exactly like in the Iliad"

Saw this discussion on Reddit about independent podcasts and I wanted to throw my hat into the ring!

The original post was asking if a podcast is still indie if it's part of a network, and the answer is, usually, yes. Unless they are explicitly financed by the network in production, which many network podcasts aren't.

I'll go into what our Rusty Quill Network membership means below, but these comments are generally correct:

So people must be wondering what being part of the RQ Network means if they're not financing us:

Two things:

1) We're now part of their ad revenue structure and get a percentage of ad revenue from ads run on our show and Rusty Quill site.

2) Rusty Quill will market us to their audience, which gives us access to a bigger audience than we had.

You'll notice that neither of those mean Rusty Quill pays us, because they don't *pay* us per se. It's a revenue sharing system.

Would you like to know how much we earn from ads?

$400~ CAD (approximately $280~ USD) every two months in our BEST MONTHS.

More accurately, we only started getting those numbers in July after we were advertised on the Magnus Protocol. Before that we got $300~ CAD after 4 months.

Other than that, we finance through Patreon with $400 CAD/month from our amazing Patrons-but you'll notice even that isn't a living.

(Though it very much does cover groceries, which I'm grateful for)

This is why we ultimately have to run fundraisers every so often. I'd run less if I was employed, which I'm trying very hard to be, but in the meantime if people want to see more of Hi Nay this is our only recourse.

That's why we're indie even if we're part of a network. That's why your favorite podcasts are indie even if they're still part of a network. Rusty Quill has done so much for us including connecting us to some amazing podcasters in the space and giving us opportunities we never would have had before, but they don't pay us for making our podcast. They just share the ad revenue and help market us.

And that's why I can't continue Hi Nay on $400-$800 Canadian every month when my rent is $1300 Canadian ($920 US) a month. Especially when I've been out of work for 1+ year.

Thinking about how wild it is that enshittification starts as a way for the rich to squeeze the populace for more money but ends up infecting everything so even luxury products decline in quality. They’ve got more money than fucking God now and for what? Literally they can’t even buy fun nice stuff for themselves because they killed craft.

Anyway this post is about Dhaka muslin but it’s also about everything.
