i mean the truth is that we do not need and should not have all this stupid plastic clutter in or houses. no one should be producing or selling this shit. everyone make your own merchandise and charge a living hourly wage to sell it 🤷 sorry to be so simplistic about this but it's one of the results of the lack of class unity specifically in the means of production-owning creative class, who is not mentioned or dealt with by the core Marxist texts as far as I know (i asked about this earlier on here, did marx ever address in his analysis people like, for example, a professional photographer who owns a camera ans prints his own dagguereotypes? or a portrait painter or idk, independent milliner or seamstress? these people all own the means of production and do not employ anyone, and the answer from better educated people than I was that no, Marx didn't mention them), I'm not well read on this at all, there is just a big void where leftist analysis of what modern economists call "the creative class"
I'm getting off topic. my point is make your own keychains in your kitchen. it's actually not hard. you can even mass produce (on a small scale) little plastic crap if you want, with resin and a UV lamp, or a 3d printer, or a laser cutter and acrylic sheets (or just use balsa wood damn, at least its biodegradable and less tacky).
all this stuff is available to little creators AND there are hundreds of people who already own these machines who will take work for you and produce your designs. you just have to actually find them and know them and email them. that's what I mean about the class unity issue with creatives. we have no large scale union, we have no large scale class consciousness, and we're all sending our orders for little plastic crap to sweatshops instead of emailing a guy with a laser cutter in his garage and saying "hey Keith can I get uhhhhhhhhhhh 50 laser cut keychains of this twerking Diggler design I made, like how much would that cost" and he's like sure here's the work and materials cost and tbh it's always always less than i think it's going to be. you just have to do some basic arithmetic and then order shipping, and I hate order fulfillment with my life but you can actually pay or barter with someone to do that for you too. learn to delegate and then factor that into your unit cost. this is basic shit every commercial creator needs to know. they should teach you this in art school but they dont
don't give me crap about "I can't afford a laser cutter" either because I just told you to email Keith. and all these machines get sold secondhand when a manufacturer or hobbyist needs to upgrade. i got a color laser printer perfect for making zines and wheatpastes and shipping labels from a retired lesbian on capital hill for $75 and it was still full of ink. my friend gave me her 20 year old canon dslr because she just didn't need it and didn't want to bother selling it. it works fine because I spent the time finding the right drivers and shit for my computer. and card readers exist. Craigslist. Facebook marketplace. nextdoor sales section. eBay. everyone always forgets eBay. eBay lets you save searches and will email you when it finds a guy selling his vinyl plotter in your city with local pickup. I'm serious
#long post#pro doom strats#leather embossing is another one#risograph prints#woodblock prints#rubber prints#etchings even#silicon molds for sculpey or resin or clay#local pottery studios#local photography studios#professional art printers with giclee printers!#ive used all these techniques to make merch#none of them are difficult or out of reach its just EASIER and adverised more to order shit from china#oh my god i forgot button presses#ALSO WE NEED A UNION AND STANDARDIZED HOURLY WAGES BTW#TIRED OF THIS BICKERING ABOUT PRICE UNDERCUTTING

anyway speaking of Varric being a mob boss, nowhere has this been made more apparent than in playing a Cadash. You would Think that a rogue Carta agent adrift in a sea of variably-hostile humans would latch right onto Varric in early Inquisition (also a criminal! and another dwarf! and dragged around by Cassandra against his will!) and it's not that Bodkin *didn't* do that, exactly, but I think Bodkin is
a) cunning enough to see through a lot of Varric's bullshit from day 1
and more importantly b) like he knows?? who Varric Tethras is?? the humans know Varric Tethras is a famous author but any Carta worth their salt is gonna know that Varric is descended from a fuckin once-noble house of Orzammar with Paragon(s) and a king and Steward of the Assembly in their line, and he's only one generation removed from allll that prestige, and also rich as hell thanks to Bartrand. He's a voting member of the prestigious Merchant's Guild, as much as he is always saying that they're after him. Even when he was pretending to be an idle younger brother with a writing habit, he was still running a spy network and by this point it definitely rivals Leliana's. Not to mention Varric and Hawke personally kill off Carta gang members in da2 so odds are good a Cadash tasked with spying on the Conclave knows about that too.
all of which to say the vibe of Cadash meeting Varric Tethras is one where like: you're a grunt, maybe a medium-level grunt, and you're having the worst day of your life. You've just stumbled out of the Fade, you get threatened with execution, and the next guy you meet is The rival mob boss, and you just have to grin and bear it in front of all these trigger-happy humans
#or to put it another way#bodkin cadash is a little hourly wage guy putting in his hours at the crime factory#while varric tethras owns the factory in the next town over and maybe pushed one of your friend's friends into one of its machines one time#the gull rambles#varric tethras#bodkin cadash#dragon age

on March 14th 2023, a Polish abortion activist Justyna Wydrzyńska was sentenced to eight months of community service for helping a woman in an abusive relationship access abortion pills
Poland has one of the strictest abortion laws in Europe.
if you can, please consider donating to ADT, the organisation that helps people in Poland access abortion!
edit: i see this post got reblogged into the terf teritory. ADT is trans friendly. please just donate and be quiet <3
#luckily they still can appeal and it's better than jail still but like.#it's so stupid that so much time is wasted on those absurd trials#i know that community service doesn't sound that bad comparing to some other things happening around the world#but still at first she was told she could face up to 3 years in jail#idk those women are heros and make me feel much more safer and less stressed living in Poland#because I know if I ever needed an abortion they would be there to help me#and also 5 dollars is almost an equivalent of a minimum hourly wage in Poland#polish currency is weaker so even 2 dollars count a lot!#and the judge was a woman! same as the leader of the constitutional tribunal that made abortion more illegal#feminism#abortion#poland#human rights#reproductive rights

O Board of DirectBitches,
In a few months I’ll be up for a promotion in which I will likely move from hourly to salaried. Do you have any info on the pros and cons of either?
Pros of salaried:
You don't have to track your hours!
You can predict your earnings for the entire year.
If you complete your work, you don't have to just keep at it to fill an hourly quota.
Salaried employees usually get other benefits that can include PTO, health insurance, a retirement fund, etc.
With the exception of some specialized fields, salaried workers generally make more money than hourly workers.
Cons of salaried:
Overtime pay is... not a thing. So if you need to work longer to get your work done, you don't necessarily get compensated more.
Pros of hourly:
Overtime pay! The more you work, the more you get paid.
Cons of hourly:
It's hard to predict what your income will be.
There's no law that says hourly workers are entitled to a consistent schedule. So good luck trying to squeeze together multiple part-time hourly jobs if you have no idea when you'll be needed at work.
Hourly workers typically do not receive additional benefits besides pay.
You might be required to file taxes quarterly instead of annually.
With the exception of some specialized fields, hourly workers generally make less money than salaried workers.
I've done both and personally, I have preferred being a salaried worker. Here's more on the benefits that typically come with a salary:

Heyo, I wanted to let you all know that I have a Ko-fi page where I offer commissions for those that have been wondering about wether I take them or not :D
In this case a "sketch" commission is a colored clean sketch and very basic shading, no background.
The exceptions are the Quick Sketch, which is a timed rough monochrome portait sketch, and the Lower Decks style (a fullbody artwork in the STLD style)
Maybe there's something there for you :D !
(delivery times may vary, as I have to watch my wirst pain)

All I see is Y/N being at their mercy once they recognize the poor janitor. What if they just assume they're being a good listerner by not talking. Like if one of em is having a bad day they just snatch Y/n mid task for cuddles and to vent.
Ah this is about the rlgl au right?
Well that would be a super dangerous game to play because the staff is strictly forbidden contact to the bots or the clients, so if they ever got caught doing that y/n would definetly be fired, even if they werent at fault. Fazbear policy
This also means that if y/n wants to keep their job they cant openly help sun or moon if anything happens at work, and they cant be spotted with sun or moon while off the clock or that little oversight of management (overlapping adresses of staff and bots) could be discovered
lets see how long y/n will be able to keep the distance to the celestial twins befor those idiots worm their way into y/n s heart
#i ramble#rlgl au#fazbears policy is super strict#understandable with all the politicians and stars as their customers#staff is not even allowed to look at customers#head down stay out of sight#but the hourly wage is so good that every member of staff scrambles to play by the rules

Over 1 million hourly workers make minimum wage in the United States. Everyone agrees it's unlivable.

the day i get paid always breaks my brain a lil bc i just have to send all my money awayyyy and be normal about it
#i dont even 'pay bills' really i send the money to the accounts the bills come from so there's always enough in said accounts on bill days#but its similar. goodbye money have fun sitting still until the reaper comes for you. tell last pay period's money i said hi.#this time wasnt so bad. i worked an emergency sunday which means i got overtime at double hourly wage for 4 hours#but still agh. to do extra work and then see your reward and it be relatively small in the grand scheme of things....#at least i have savings again. for the first time since summer began#t

When I hit the lottery I'm hiring a personal seamster. Nothing store bought looks good on me and I don't like what's in fashion and even though I've been sewing for 20 years I don't actually particularly enjoy it. My favorite part of the hobby is picking out fabric and patterns. Their job will be to put that shit together for me.
#chit chat#i will pay them on an hourly basis rather than a per project basis and i will pay enough to ensure their loyalty to me above other clients#but i do assume that they will need other clients because I'd probably only want like 1 new thing a month#i can be understanding even with the pressure of monetary power#this month. hawaiian shirt. next month. embroidered silk 1920s dress and overdress#winter? oh it's all about wizard robes.#if i have a personal seamstrix making me twelve new outfits a year at twice living wage is that fast fashion or slow fashion

individual artists/commissioners will spend 80+ hours making a product and be like “i think $50 is a fair price”
#long story short RAISE YOUR PRICES#sell your stuff for what it’s worth! factor in time and effort!#give yourself a $10-15 MINIMUM hourly wage and factor in cost of production#there’s your price#text post
