rat-man @affablebrian.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Basic functions in illustrator and photoshop like cropping objects now try to get you to generate slop when you use them. It's just so exhausting. Go away, I don't WANT THIS 000

rat-man @affablebrian.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Also, every now and then do something very much outside of your normal routine that feels preposterous. Go for a swim half an hour before the local pool closes. See a film at 11 am. Call a help centre about a problem you already know the answer to - 110
rat-man @affablebrian.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Genuinely, lie down in a space with a little stimulus as possible and reset. All devices in another room, crawl under duvet/blanket, be somewhere dark and quiet and warm. Feel tired, feel overwhelmed, feel stupid for hiding, count your breaths, be very present. Once you start to feel normal, get up 120

rat-man @affablebrian.bsky.social · 22/06/2026Every other post is a children's book about an inspiring white orphan with faux-Disney eyes and a puppy, or a life affirming t-shirt brand, or a million other pieces of generic slop. I've had one scam swapped for another. 020

rat-man @affablebrian.bsky.social · 13/06/2026At that point what's the motivation to have a concession at all? If you're charging £27.50 for a ticket, I don't think anyone is going to think £26.50 is a bargain. Why not charge a greater differential, like £30.00 and £24.00? I'm uninformed. Should probably ask a show runner. 010
rat-man @affablebrian.bsky.social · 13/06/2026Makes me wonder how much this £1 to £2 differences is actually bringing in for the box office. 15 shows selling maybe 50 tickets in a venue with a capacity of 80, that's £750 for a £1 difference. Not much for production, and not much of a differential for concession-qualifying theatre goers. 100
rat-man @affablebrian.bsky.social · 13/06/2026I'm doing the accessibility side of things and honestly it's a nightmare to present up to 30 separate dates with no regularity between them with three separate prices all with £1 difference between them. 100
rat-man @affablebrian.bsky.social · 13/06/2026I'm working on show listings for a gig, and so many theatre shows have concession rates that are just £1 cheaper than a main ticket. They also vary the pricing of their tickets by £1, sometimes having three separate prices throughout the week. 100

rat-man @affablebrian.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Why work in the arts. All you do is sweat blood to make money for some "founder". The only hope you have of security and safety is to learn enough on the job to start your own studio, and perpetuate the pain onto other younger creatives, MLM style. How are we still here, doing this, in 2026. 020
rat-man @affablebrian.bsky.social · 21/05/202626k is roughly 21.5k post tax and 5% pension contributions. That leaves you about £1,800 a month take home pay. Average rent in London is £1,000 for a SINGLE ROOM. A TFL travel card is £300/month. You'd have £500 left for bills, food, and council tax (which are rising WEEKLY in the UK). 100
