It’s been almost a full year since graduation and despite having applied to almost every full time design position under the sun, no job. Barely even interviews. Anyone know the best site to do remote freelance work, cause I refuse to do remote full time work out of principle.

Typically if I am looking for freelance work, I look on Upwork. I have done several gigs on there and they all paid really well. Best of luck to you.

Lol, what principle is that, exactly? I’d encourage you to broaden your horizons if you’re serious about finding a job. Otherwise continue letting your parents pay for you and let folks who actually need income scoop up what’s available. Which, as you know, isn’t much these days.

I don’t like any of the Dem candidates, but oddly enough I’d prefer Yang over Warren, Bernie, Kamala, or Biden. Especially considering I think UBI is asinine. Is that weird?
