What do creative people do in Germany to support themselves?
- Art?
- Study liberal arts for free while getting bafög or a side job to pay for your living costs. I think that's more what the post is about. And there are also tons of grants.
- I think the point is not so much about the actual occupation, but about the system fucking them a bit less.
