Networking

Doesn’t it suck that, even if I had all the talent in the world, I’d still have to kiss ass and climb social ladders just to succeed? That, in the end, someone else born into a well-connected family will get paid more, get discovered faster, or get more praise?

Not a deep or original thought, but it’s really pissing me off right now.

You know, that pisses me off too. This is especially true for aspiring artists and stuff like that. If you don’t have the right kinds of connections, you’ll never get the good jobs. Have you seen the unevenness of fame on DeviantArt? People can simply draw a disproportionate Cat Girl, slap gigantic boobs on it, suck up to the right people and get tons upon tons of exposure (not linking to THAT, you wouldn’t want eye bleach), while people who are silent, but work their asses off, get ignored.

I guess it’s always a matter of taste, but DeviantArt’s collective taste sucks ass. xD

I usually don’t bother, but it would be nice if there was a bigger pool of people who want commissions. *giggles*

BRB, DRAWING MOAR ANIMU.
