Absolutely valid concern. And like you, I hope it's the end of them as we know it. The statement I've linked here gives me hope in the case it's control / a buy out they want: bsky.app/profile/robj...

Who knew I'd be rallying so hard for the mouse. Two monsters fighting it out, but I'll happily deal with Mickey if he's the one setting precedent for what we've all been fighting so hard for. Just a shame it takes billions to be heard, or make any type of change, in this country.😑

Human creativity is invaluable. The time I've spent vigilantly defending and proving that, throughout my career (a lot lately), is done. When you realize what you're fighting for is lost in the definitions set by those who have zero experience, you are freed from the burden. It's just not worth it.😮💨

My value is in my humanity, experience, knowledge, and skill. I'm not competing with trends or "the next best thing." I don't need to because what I offer isn't comparable to passing fads we're told "we need to adopt or be left behind." I won't entertain the fear. It's a waste of everyone's time.

…I mean, it depends. If you’re a child selling cookies, I’m game. 😂 But otherwise? Nah.

Love how autocorrect changed “garam” to “caramel” in the alt text. What?! That would be interesting, eh? 😂

Oh, thank you for the consideration! That's so incredibly nice of you. And thank you for the wood suggestion. 🙌 I'll keep that in mind as I do my search.

My goal is to get out of the house a bit for laid back, outdoor mixer type events to meet other solo small business owners in the area. I want to be more involved in the scene like I used to be in Philly. And honestly, it'd just be nice to meet more people up here. ❤️

Though, I suppose it could just be an offshoot of WIP. The in-person meetup version locally.🤔 It's just A LOT to host those types of events. I have a ton of experience with event planning like this, but I know the energy investment that's required. and I don't know if it's in me at the moment.
