Freelance Pay:
As the new financial year kicks it it feels like a good time to bump the conversation about freelancer day rates.
If you are paying less than £150 per day, research suggests you’re paying less than the National living wage comparatively, overheads not included.
Some work by @BIGchats freelancers a few years ago calculated the following (very approximate) equivalencies:
£50,000 - £448 per day
£45,000 - £404 per day
£40,000 - £359 per day
£35,000 - £314 per day
£30,000 - £269 per day
£25,000 - £224 per day
£20,000 - £179 per day

What strikes me as deeply unpleasant about the Nicola Sturgeon / Alex Salmond situation is that the possible consequence of a powerful man who Sturgeon says acted "deeply inappropriately" towards women could be the destruction of a woman's political career.

One of the most difficult life balances to strike:
Having enough self-confidence to carry on, however many times you’re knocked back
But enough self-doubt to listen to criticism and change course when necessary

Patience doesn’t arise spontaneously, we have to make an effort and familiarize ourselves with it. What’s more, it’s those hostile to us rather than our friends who teach us patience.

Kate O'Neil, Marine Biologist, was lucky enough to spot a #swordfish in the Firth of Forth yesterday: "I was really excited when I realised we were watching a swordfish, a species that (to the best of our knowledge) has only been recorded in Scotland a handful of times!"

Reimagine the arts - a Thread.
We won’t all make it through - arts organisations, venues, collectives, artists – however much our governments, arts funders, or our local communities, chip in. It’s not going to be enough. Not now. Not in the years it’ll take to recover. (1/12)

🚨BREAKING: @ScotParl has passed the Referendums (Scotland) Bill by 68 to 54, creating the legal basis for holding an independence referendum.
🏴This is another step forward for Scotland's right to choose our future. This choice must be in Scotland's hands, not Boris Johnson's.
