I gave art a genuine try again as an adult after quitting as a kid because I got no talent.
This isn't a setback, it's me beating my doubts to go do the thing I want to do despite my lack of talent. I don't wanna go pro anyway. I just wanna draw.

Do you genuinely not care about validation or have you just conditioned yourself into not needing it? a big part of drawing, for a lot of artists, is to get other people to see their art.

That's flattering, anon (though I think you're giving me too much credit kek).
What you have is already on a good spot, with a little bit of extra polishing you can make some good stuff with it. If you want more stylization like my stuff, try smaller and more compact proportions, rather than making limbs and bodies more accurate to real proportions, give them a more simple and chibi-like approach; Im pretty sure that if you find your way into it, you can definitely mog me.

you can straight up not need validation for MOST of the time, or need so little of it that it doesn't matter ultimately. Not every little whim and feeling should be acted upon esp not something like validation, there are few human emotions that change you as a person and dictate your actions as fast as validation

I'm not very good at economics nor politics stuff but I have some reasons why I feel skeptical about it. Take it with a grain of salt.
It's not like this country doesnt have solutions but it's too common that the people that is elected tends to be the biggest incompetents, corrupts or they never finish to implementing their proposals because the lack of agreement between them.

Sorry im retarded, but answering your question, I'm not really sure if it could help us, dollarization always come with a lot of inflation at the beginning (supposedly biggers than the one we have rn) but at the same time keeping stuff like it is right now it's equally bad too.

What if like... your greatest victory is also your greatest failure?

I managed to achieve something I thought was impossible: make coom art, get paid enough to live off of it (well, just enough.) Only now I'm more depressed than I've ever been. I know it isn't art at all (inb4 NSFW *is* art, fine, it's art, but it's still trash art for the lowest common denominator.) I feel worthless and my fans don't care if I live or die, I'm nothing but a tool they use to masturbate their worthless lives away. I threw away almost 2k a month in potential coms over the course of the year (not including patreon, subscribestar) and now I'm just actively sabotaging everything I've built and trying to destroy myself. I want to delete everything and never draw again. Why is this so depressing? I felt hyped and self-assured and brave like a motherfucker at the start, now I can't even check my inbox or post my newest work without feeling like I'm going to have a heart attack. Is this a case of 'careful what you wish for?'

It probably is a mixture of cope and reality desu. On one hand i am making myself believe being hated is good, which is a high level of cogonitive dissonance, on the other hand i find it funny that some people hate me so much that they waste their time drawing hate art and trying to doxx me.

>Why would a libertarian government be bad for business though? you'd think it'd be the opposite.
main worry is that for something like switching currency you need a really tight control of the market to ensure the prices dont balloon up outside of what's affordable for the citizens, with international trade and dollars as the main currency there's no reason for people to not trade with the first world directly which could eventually lead to argentina having USA prices despite the fact that even good paying jobs here dont pay enough to be minimum us wage, if you are an artist that'll really fuck you up too because the main reason art is viable in south america is because of the price difference between dollar and local currencies, you get rid of that and suddenly you need to be making enough with comms hourly as you would with a first world job
