Kinda wish booths and tables at cons would stop playing music to attract customers because even if I am interested in the items they have as a shopper the music turns me off even wanting to look :x and as a vendor I think it's super inconsiderate to vendors around you

despairing a lil every time I see someone make a reel/tiktok about their "convention profits" and their expenses do not include their cost of goods lol it's so misleading to newer artists especially

LRT on the topic of people in the west often assuming "made in china = sweatshop, made in USA = ethical" I want to stress how xenophobic of an assumption that is because actually, we have tons of unethical manufacturing at home under the piecework system of pay x.com/i/status/184...

reasons I like doing photoshoots outside: nice lighting, cool environments/settings reasons I do not like doing photoshoots outside: stranger men stop and watch me and now I get to battle the fight or flight of "am I safe or do I need to pack up and leave"

very important feature I added to the tote: one of the exterior pockets can be unzipped to turn it into a passthrough sleeve for luggage handles

whenever an ai bro tries to convince people that their gen ai art is actually cool and the future and not lame and ppl show up en masse to boo and throw tomatoes this is what i picture is happening

If you buy something expensive, it gets marked as delivered to your home, and the package gets stolen do you expect the business to send you another one/refund you?

There's a bunch of stuff I was saving to have as new reveals at AX but I might need to actually drop early simply because I keep having to tank huge business expenses rn 😔
