a cosplay portrayal of Palamedes Sextus and Camilla Hect, against a photo booth backdrop covered with pixelated orange flames. Palamedes has wavy dark brown hair, rounded rectangular browline glasses with a spectacle chain dangling from the arms, medium grey cloak and top, and dark brown eyes. Camilla has dark brown bobbed hair, a charcoal grey moto-style denim jacket, and light grey eyes. They are standing back to back, both looking at the camera, unsmiling. In one hand, Camilla is holding an audio recorder raised to mouth level.ALT

"Camilla’s clear grey eyes should have really been Palamedes’, and vice-versa with his winter-time irises."

a cosplay portrayal of Nona from the Locked Tomb series, in front of a tank of long-tentacled jellyfish (pacific sea nettles); she looks like she's underwater because the tank takes up the whole image. the jellyfish are bright yellow, with sweeping white tentacles that span the whole tank, and look like they're glowing.ALT

"Nona was depressed, but it only took her feet being in the salt water to make her happy again. [...] This was because there were heaps and heaps of jellyfish in the harbour..."

since spotify wrapped is coming today i just want to bring awareness to the fact that around 86% of the songs on spotify are currently demonetized since spotify decided that tracks with under 1,000 cannot be monetized. not only that the ceo of spotify cashed out $35.8 million dollars in spotify shares in the third quarter of the year and it has been reported that he earns more than the top artists on the platform.

for a platform that claims to support artists, this is outrageous and i hope people realize that an artist who is starting out, cannot make a living out of spotify streams simply because daniel ek and his friends made it worse for the artists trying to start a career. if you wanna support musicians and the possibility for them to get a living wage please follow United Musicians and Allied Workers (UMAW) which are trying to make The Living Wage for Musicians Act a reality so musicians can be paid fairly through streaming platforms and get the cut they deserve.

I'm a musician with >1 million plays on Spotify, and I'd like to highlight that all indie artists suffer rather hilariously from Spotify's pricing schemes!

(I have ✨receipts✨)

first off:

If you like and support an artist enough for them to appear on your Wrapped, please consider:

  • buying their music directly from them (Bandcamp, their websites, etc. - I guarantee there are options)
  • supporting them by buying merch or going to their shows
  • direct support (Patreon, online tip jars, etc.)

onto the spice:

How much do I make on Spotify streaming royalties every year?

$1-20

$20-50

$50-100

$100-1000
