It's so insane to me how creative pursuits/jobs feel like a luxury.

"Oh I have enough time to write after my day job" or "I have enough money to pay an artist/editor/beta reader to make my self-published book much better."

"I can practice art on the weekends because I don't have kids/don't feel burnt out from the work week"

Why is our society like this about some of the most natural human impulses?? Like "no make sure people are doing manual labor to fund the evil corporate machine, or entering data that can be lost in the blink of an eye. no, make sure the robots work on the art. We don't have time to pay human workers."

#sorry i tried to wake up at 5:45am and stayed up for a bit then fell asleep and had a weird dream where jesse pinkman was flirting with me #now i'm angry because there's more stuff I should have done other than lay back down to sleep #ughh i don't have adhd despite what my partner says #but now i have so much work to do today to try to feel 'normal' as a person and make sure the next few months run smoothly #have to get stuff renewed and my car title changed/get my partner's old car that i bought off him in my name #why do things like this feel like such big deals??#also i need to make a dental appointment #AND i need to think about what to get my cousin for her wedding next month and my friend for her baby shower #sorry for rambling #i just want to have my hobbies flow smoothly but writing is so hard lately despite me feeling inspired more than the last two years
