Should I rephrase this? Nah, nevermind. It's gonna get misinterpreted anyway.
If you've seen my scraps post:

You know that things are not going particularly well for me. Since complaining about your personal problems in a journal seems to be the thing to do these days, I thought I'd give it a go.
Man, gotta love people who are all "Sonova bitch! I'm up to my armpits in all these paid commissions!" You're getting paid to do something that I do for fun in my spare time when you could be like me, working a soul-crushing day job with long hours and making no net gains. Grab a dollar from your last commission, well done. You're richer than me.
Ok, that came off as mean, but I'm just kind of frustrated right now. I'm a writer, not an artist, so I probably won't ever see a dime from my work here. But I guess it's worth noting that I also have no idea what kind or how much effort goes into making a good picture. Judging from the quality I see around here, it's probably a whole freaking lot. It's a labor of love it seems, and I guess I'm just jealous that you guys are good enough to get paid for it.
You know what? I do feel a little better. Well hypothetical furs reading this, thanks for listening to me yelling at you. You've been a big help.
