when artists said this in 2022 they were laughing at us, so 🤷‍♀️ (but realtalk, I'm glad more people are waking up to it now)

Bro I'm so sick of pretending this isn't weird.
The internet spent 20 years creating tutorials, open-source projects, blog posts & answers for free.
Al companies turned all of it into products worth billions.
And now the same people who created that knowledge are being told they're replaceable.
We built the library.
Someone else started charging admission.

The ironic thing here is that my most vivid kindergarten memory is my teacher saying I "Don't spend my time wisely" but she didn't explain what that meant so I thought she meant I needed to work slower. And then when she kept saying it I was like "what more do you want from me??"

TLDR it's okay to do things as a "labor of love", but A) you deserve to be paid for your time, and B) time is your most valuable resource. Spend it well. Don't make decisions you'll regret on your deathbed.

Happy 72nd Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools. She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama. The past isn’t past.
