so the three months of bailout we got from the government is done.. there’s still no industry. I can’t sing at care homes, weddings, in pubs or theatres, I can’t teach in person... all my income is still gone. And help is nowhere to be found. there are thousands of us, screwed

my pals are out there changing careers and re-training during a pandemic, job hunting and stressing and crying and the few people that are actually getting paid for online work are very much not reflective of the majority of us, we’ve been hung out to dry

just sad and deflated and resigning myself to the fact that the next few years of our life will be spent paying off loans, trying to rebuild, trying to see if there’s any point in continuing to be an artist when it seems only the rich can survive
