artists and creatives cannot substack themselves out of low wages, massive layoffs, and rapid increases in rent and everyday essentials.
I’ve noticed with the layoffs happening a lot of people are like “start your own thing!” (Especially for those in music or journalism) But, what are you supposed to do when you don’t want to do that?
I don't know, I didn't go to big business school, but i don't think "fire all the best writers we have" is a real good long term plan on the "save newspaper" vision board.
Thank you thank you thank you to all of our strike captains who have held us down at every picket these last 146 days. Kept us hydrated, informed, sunblocked, safe from cars, and feeling encouraged. Love y’all!!
