Depends on the stress, if its just a tense situation I try to keep my eyes open, think about the events unfolding and the options available to deal with it, if there is a need to deal with the situation. If its anger related stress, I get a rush of energy and feel the need to get up and walk, this allows me to let the steam off. If it becomes too much to deal with, I tend to retreat back into myself, take as little place as possible, lie down if possible, my brain usually can’t stop thinking but doing something autonomously (doomscrolling or anything else) helps.

And https://www.editionslibertalia.com/ which is an awesome anarchist publisher with mostly french books and/or translations
Libertalia, an independent publishing house created in 2007, publishes around 20 books per year. Since 2018, Libertalia has also been a neighborhood bookstore, at 12 rue Marcelin-Berthelot, in Montreuil, nearby Paris. At our level, modestly, we try to build happy days.

inlandempire@jlai.luto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•To the artists: What's the highest price you've been able to put on a work of art and end up managing to sell it to someone?2·5 months agoYep, I just responded to BCsven who had the same concern, usually this works for someone starting out, but I definitely upped my prices as I got more experience
One issue with my industry is that it’s very easy to get into, so the job market tends to be saturated, but at the same time it’s also easy to stand out once you’ve got the skills
inlandempire@jlai.luto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•To the artists: What's the highest price you've been able to put on a work of art and end up managing to sell it to someone?1·5 months agoOh definitely, my advice is usually directed at people starting out, the average freelancer in my country charges around 300 euros per day, nowadays I switched on a per project pricing, which is easier to explain to clients
inlandempire@jlai.luto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•To the artists: What's the highest price you've been able to put on a work of art and end up managing to sell it to someone?5·5 months agoI’m a graphic designer so technically not an artist, but sometimes people ask how much they should charge for their design services, it’s a great question because there are many ways to go about it.
What i usually recommend, though, is
local minimum wage per hour worked on the project times 2
; it’s straightforward and usually fair to both the designer and the client, the former just needs to adjust the final price to take into account the cost of operating their business.I’m saying this because it puts into perspective the cost of (design) art. For example, when I was a student, I drew a really nice shark, it took me about 40 hours. With my maths, it would cost around 500€.
I’m certain my drawing isnt worth half a thousand, no matter how proud I am of it, and how beautiful it could be for a potential buyer. But thinking about art prices in terms of remuneration per time spent sometimes help understanding why a certain piece is expensive.
The problem with this, is that it does not take into account the effort spent on that piece, among other things. In the end, an art piece value remains deeply personal and it reflects on the price a person is willing to pay.
I once charged 2k for a week worth of work on a boring corporate 60 page report/document, that’s way overpriced, but that company was in a rush because it was in summer and all their designers were in vacations, so they were willing to pay that much for my urgent help.

I’m 10 years younger and I feel the same, granted, I still game a lot, but I find myself more excited about the ideas and potential of a game, than actually playing it.
I think it’s a normal thing, you gotta get tired of a hobby after so many years, and it’s a healthy thing to cycle it out and pick up something else, and maybe come back to it some time later
