ngl ever since this post, im designing and cutting out these stickers out at home which is a very time consuming and repetitive labor process only to know that there's thieves out there selling my designs at a fraction of the cost is extremely discouraging like. what is the point. what is even the fucking point.

#sticker sales and patreon is how im paying bills and buying groceries rn so it just fucking winded me #and im trying to catch up on send backs and junes stuff but im sitting her wondering how long itll be until these designs are stolen too #what is the point in trying to make art for a living if all thats ever gonna happen is that it gets stolen #i cannot beat the price of big box names like amazon and other rip offs stealing designs and selling them for pennies #when it cost me a good chunk of the a $5 sticker cost to actaully make the sticker like its not all take home that includes shipping #and ink and paper and ect #i literally cannot compete with big box stores that steal shit i cannot #so what even is the point #sara shush #tw vent #art theft
