sometimes it's really unfair that popular accounts on the internet can convince their followers to pay them for basic, mundane, super easy things, or things they used to post all the time for free.....but I can't even get one art commission or anything of that nature 😭 popularity pays. hard work does not. I don't understand how the internet works lmao
#im disabled and need to find alternative income because i cant get hired and was told i might be laid off my job and 😭#i cant get popular enough to get paid for my work online despite sharing my work online for 15 years#but there can be popular accounts that get commissions to draw a sketch that takes 30 seconds and it becomes their job#(speaking specifically about a cat sketching twitter that did simple outline of cats and gets overwhelmed with commissions)#the most popular thing ive done on the internet is itty bitty bladie and he isnt even that popular#no one would ever commission itty bitty bladie pictures with themes they choose or something idk#standing out and getting noticed on the internet is so hard and exhausting but i have no other options if i lose my only other income 😭#lee text#sorry for the irl life post on main#lee rambles#also this isnt shade at people who do this. good job to them and keep it up!
