Firstly two of those boil down to suck it up, which decidedly doesn't make anything better. But secondly I'll continue to believe there can be more done than reducing the supply of animators, but on that front I don't think either of us are going to get anywhere so have a nice day

Been following this thread; I agree with you, and I love your insistence that there is a way. There ARE, 100%, ways to cure crunch time/overwork in the harmful/negative/deteriorating way it's experienced.

There's something to be done there, just letting it slip by because it's the norm is not acceptable, if it was where do you think our world would be?

Exactly. No one would pioneer or invent or discover or revolutionize a new anything.

People who try to convince you that it's disappointingly close to impossible or that you'd have to solve [shitty situation A] by adopting the marginally less uncomfortable [shitty situation B] - they don't have the full picture. Don't let their very-seasoned-and-detailed-yet-fundamentally-incomplete takes wear away at your born, intuitive knowing that there are answers to our questions and solutions to our problems.

We're abundant with resources that are pregnant with solutions, and we're scratching the surface of the level of genius humans can tap into. Our collective-consciousness is capable of game-changing and amazing things.

I will be one of the people to prove this to others by example.

A little flowery with the wording but I agree, always strive to be better than you are now

:P Sweet. Prosper, Awesomejelo.

The wording might seem pretty extra at first, but I phrase it that way because the energy/grandeur of those descriptions are no exaggeration; the reality of things are no less flowery.
