Another paper model design I made for a client. The building is the Royal Netherlands Institute in Rome. It is an honor to design a model of this beautiful building.

Got laid off yesterday along with about 15 other people from our office. The 4 other offices will also have layoffs.
I do have about 8 months of full pay, so quite the runway to find out what I will do next.
Also fuck the AI bubble and the consequences it has on all of us.
- fuck.. sorry to hear man.dee-dubs
- Sorry to hear. What was the reason, not AI or did it have an effect on your positions?NBQ00
- a different company needed to cut costs due to over-investment in AI, that affected us and trickled downNutter
- Sorry <3PonyBoy
- 8 months of full pay and you don't have to work?bainbridge
- Sorry man. Where are you at and what are your specialties? I have seen an uptick in hiring so things aren't so bleakBonSeff

- Well that blows ass, you'll be just fine Nutter. As one door slams closed, a another door opens...keep your head high.utopian
- So sorrry to hear. Been there, but 20 months later and I’m feeling like it was maybe a good thing. Take time, and 8 months is insanely good.monospaced
- Open up a high yield savings account, plop the severance in there, and start budgeting. Network like a mofo.monospaced
- I know nothing about your org, but one round of layoffs usually means more are coming.monospaced
- yeah, the other offices were hit too yesterday

Unfortunately, this didn't turn into a paid assignment. Because of the tight deadline I had already done the illustration and die-cut sketch, but the additional requirements were too complex to deliver the print run in Paris within two weeks. Better next time!

Elon Musk
Elon Musk is being confronted about how his DOGE cuts made to USAID are potentially a death sentence for an estimated 4.5 million children around the world.
I hope he does go on a reporting trip to see the damage he has wrought, I'm sure plenty of angry parents would love to get their hands on him.

Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if us QBNers had joined forces and launched a worldwide creative studio.
- Writing this following Nutter's post above, this usually comes to my mind when I read similar experiences as I always think of us as a talented bunchspl33nidoru
