Something I want to ask my fellow mid-career creatives: how are you fighting burnout these days? How are you getting your creative mojo going again after a decade+ of working in the same creative space?

Just made it in for @brokenfrontier.bsky.social 's first #GoshBFDD of the evening - "Workers Rights"
Ageing: the condition of becoming less serious about all you were once far too serious about and more serious about all that you once undervalued.
sure yeah, can't even make a stick figure without fucking up and no one at the company gives enough of a shit to even give it another pass but go ahead and take my money so i can use this lazy shit technology every day too
I resent a lot of things about AI in creative spaces. But the thing that I hate the most is that a year or two ago, if I saw something cool on the internet, I DIDN'T HAVE TO QUESTION whether or not human effort created it. I could appreciate what an achievement it was that a person could do that.
this number is shocking, and another great example of why you should support your favourite art directly
Joel Morris@gralefrit.bsky.social · 3w agoWhen Broken Veil was the number one podcast on the Apple Charts, we made £24 from it that month. That’s what the paywalls are for: but nobody wants their pod to stay a little private members’ club. That balance is so hard to negotiate. Support creators, anyway.

This sale runs until the end of September, so if you’re hoping to get one of my hand-made drawing pens in time for Christmas, this is probably the sale for you.

Oh, okay then. Whew, everyone. The corner office creeps say there's nothing to fear.
Designers should not fear being replaced by AI, industry leaders say
Firms are more likely to use technology as ‘the intern in the office’ than as a replacement for skilled staff

There’s yet another celebrity promoting their children’s book on national TV this morning and at some point we really need a proper conversation about how deeply unfair that is. To get such huge, free advertising, propelling their book above all the brilliant authors who arguably deserve it more.
