#Validate a Business Idea

[shallowseeker]

the way that even in early usa, extended families often lived together or within walking distance

the idea that each nuclear family should have its own house, own appliances, own everything and that adult children should move out at 18 is a relatively recent post-WWII, suburbanization-era invention

and it just so happens to be highly profitable

Hey guys 🍉, do you know any good and trustworthy charities that are raising money to help the people in gaza? Looking for recommendations!!!!

I was inspired by some other artists doing this but I thought that in exchange for you guys donating to a charity for gaza, as much as you want (it doesn’t have to be much, just what you can) I would draw you a sketch of a character of your choice!

[amee-racle-ofmyown]

Another jealous Heist Mark x Reader fic from you might actually make my month, the previous one was SO COOL

THANK YOU‼️ ALSO PATIENCE ANON I'M WORKING ON IT

lol this is all meant lightheartedly, genuinely it does make me very happy to see asks and to know you enjoy reading my work🥺💖

but right now I have coursework, placements, and I'm about to write finals. so just bear with me lolol <3

[mothoscope]

...May I ask about your fursona ideas for the different beavis and butthead characters? 👀

HEHEH THANKS FOR AWAKENING MY MENTAL ILLNESS, ANON. I could talk about fursona headcanons (of anything) for HOURS.

I'll go through as many characters that I have ideas for. I definitely might miss some, but if you have a particular side-character I missed don't be afraid to ask. Again, I love thinking about this stuff : )

Beavis and Butt-Head: African wolf (Senegalese subspecies) and Spotted hyena, respectively. Hyena was too good an opportunity to pass up, but I felt Beavis needed to be a different animal. Hyenas are kind of "box-shaped" which lends itself well to how Butt-Head is designed, but Beavis is a lot more angular and "pointy" to me. I was considering a coyote, but it felt too basic. African wolf felt like a good median.

Also....consider...the size difference. Very silly. Buzzcut: American Staffordshire Terrier

It just felt right. Cassandra: Okapi

Just felt right (that might be my reasoning for a lot of these if they don't have extra commentary lol) Daria: Water opossum or Yapok

Earl: Sumatran Rhino

Principal McVicker: Gulf coast toad

I did this based off of vibes/character design initially but, now that I am writing this, I am realizing there is a connection here between frog baseball and the mental abuse Beavis and Butt-Head put on that guy on a daily basis lmaooo. Stewart: Syrian hamster

It is literally him. 'Nuff said. Todd: Red fox

Basic "cool animal". Also I like the name pun (for those not in-the-know, Tod is a term for a male fox).

Tom Anderson: Texas pocket gopher

Van Driessen: Water deer

Gentle beast. Very befitting for him <3. I could also have him be a regular type of deer but I like the visual of their tusks. Hoping to make more art of these interpretations, so keep an eye out : )

Step-by-Step Guide to Selling Digital Products with Ease

The digital economy is booming, and selling digital products—like eBooks, courses, templates, or printables—has never been more accessible. With low startup costs and limitless scalability, it’s an ideal venture for creators and entrepreneurs. Here’s how to start your journey effortlessly:

1. Identify Your Niche & Audience

Begin by pinpointing a niche you’re passionate about and that has demand. Research communities on social media, forums, or platforms like Reddit to understand pain points. For example, if you’re skilled at graphic design, consider offering Canva templates for small businesses. Narrowing your focus helps you stand out.

2. Validate Your Idea

Before investing time, validate demand. Use surveys, polls, or pre-sale offers to gauge interest. Share a concept on Instagram or LinkedIn and ask followers if they’d buy it. Tools like Google Forms or Gumroad’s pre-order feature can simplify this step.

3. Create Your Product

Focus on quality and usability. Use tools like Canva for design, Teachable for courses, or Adobe Audition for audio guides. Keep it simple—start with one product (e.g., a PDF workbook) before expanding. Ensure it’s professionally presented and solves a specific problem.

4. Choose a User-Friendly Platform

Select a platform that handles hosting and sales. Options like Gumroad, Ko-fi, or Etsy are beginner-friendly. For more control, use Shopify or WordPress with WooCommerce. Prioritize platforms with built-in marketing tools and analytics.

5. Set Up Payments & Pricing

Integrate secure payment gateways like Stripe or PayPal. Price your product strategically: research competitors, consider value-based pricing (e.g., $29 for a time-saving template bundle), or offer tiered options (basic vs. premium).

6. Launch & Market Smartly

Build anticipation before launching. Share snippets on social media, collaborate with micro-influencers, or offer limited-time discounts. Use email lists (start with free lead magnets) and SEO-friendly product descriptions to drive organic traffic.

7. Prioritize Customer Support

Automate delivery using platforms like SendOwl to avoid manual work. Create a FAQ section and respond promptly to queries. Positive reviews boost credibility, so encourage feedback with follow-up emails.

8. Analyze & Scale

Track sales and customer behavior with analytics tools. Identify top-performing marketing channels and double down. Expand your offerings based on demand—turn a popular eBook into a video course, or bundle products for upsells.

Final Thoughts

Selling digital products is a rewarding way to monetize your skills. By starting small, validating ideas, and leveraging the right tools, you can build a sustainable online business with minimal friction. Ready to launch? Your audience is waiting!

Take the first step today—create, share, and grow. The digital world is yours to conquer.

being alive at the time i gleaned some general elements abt encanto but never actually heard we don't talk about bruno beyond awareness it existed popping off & i think i heard like the title recited off key off rhythm but in a way that indicates speak singing nonetheless lol so upon experiencing it it's like oh but it's the Verses? while the last refrain goes harder but prior to that it's comparatively underwhelming to said verses which feels appropriate like verses / pieces of a larger picture & that a "we don't talk about him" as a disappointing Lid on infinitely richer more characterful & dynamic "but: talking about him" instances. like well personally it'd be like um seven foot frame....anyway besides being able to firsthand go like oh damn Real (the kind of thing you know exists if alive at the time) it's like alright hang on lol. one thing when a core theme is yeah like "is it a refuge if 'especial' vulnerability ultimately gets pushed out rather than made safer" subset like the parties whose even observation of truths (problems) & drawing attention to them is seen as Ruining Things, like if you're painted as Making futures that aren't simply what's desired or reassuring rather than a guidance via just observing & sharing the truth. but then it's like whaddaya mean living in fear of bruno stuttering and stumbling you could always hear him sort of muttering and mumbling lmao like now that's just Association between the Truth Perceiving & Telling behavior & behavior that's just apparently distinctive of the same person. & like Not Accidentally when [what if people were magic] specifics are obviously primarily abt a metaphorical meaning & like, indeed it was made clear like oh this situation isn't Just b/c [boo we hate your prophecies] & that [an Ability that isn't directed towards what anyone Wants / is "weird" even by these magic standards] isn't Coincidentally given to someone who just so happens to already be "weird" in other ways & be set up to have a different perspective & be pushed away due to having the supposed "extra" vulnerability of unmet needs / insufficient support, same as someone who doesn't "correctly" have any kind of magic ability....like yeah banger and also like Oh Yeah Kind Of Devastating re: that metaphorical resonance allowing for like [set the metaphor aside] now hang on with this about this disabled family member lol. misinterpretation to The Ruinerrr / The Problemmm / The Maliciousss etc (i.e. the scapegoatinggg) despite their efforts likely entirely to the contrary. then despite like, efforts aside, Just Existing, always kind of muttering & mumbling like & what of it. & then like oh sorry weird pets. weird [auspicious for adaptable tenacious thriving surviving; either way simply creatures, existing] pets.

truly like As Is The Idea I'm Sure quickly becomes like hands behind back standing at the window Uh Oh Sisters musing on all the [disabled person] metaphorical & already literal elements there. blair witching it in contemplation like We've All Been There whether being so resented for the mere disruption of "existing in a group as the 'abnormal' odd one out" or like people talking shit abt anything associated w/you as soon as you've left the room, which is also made relevant like, this wasn't Only directed at this person when seemingly permanently gone, nor were they unaware / unaffected prior....pacing in the Musing parlor like things don't Have to be compared to billions but i only ever even see so many things & it's like billions sure is like "get scapegoated rword" & then said scapegoating is presented as only beneficial & we hate autists & even beyond that it's like, grabbing billions, Imagine If Things Meant To Be About Something Were About Something. quite a contrast when they are & furthermore like, deliberate thought & Care for [who gets scapegoated & why] & the truth of like, people getting pushed aside & out who have a key perspective & are primed / liable to come through for others similarly vulnerable & the supposedly Ruinous, Problems Generating disruptiveness is actually the strongest effort to make essential changes to a group. & come through with like, it'd be undermining thee point if it was "reassuring" us like oh haha people will be supportive b/c bruno will be more normal, so great that it Didn't like no, no Normality Reassurance(tm), presence of abnormalities(tm), Good, & everyone Can Deal b/c if you don't then it's pushing this person away, is exactly what happens, including even if they're still Around but are being mistreated b/c that is entirely part of that pushing away like anyone's victim blaming is ready to pounce at any time but if someone can't stand to stay / leaves b/c they can't see another option like that's not out of nowhere nor Regardless of what full support & flexibility they were getting lol. these Active Measures everyone loves so much, which are everywhere always & would include Staying & Trying To Make It Work & those efforts would be "disruptive" & resented & Bringing It On Oneself & etccc smh

that is to all say like. Woww when clearly basically the core thread was these beats of like, the crucial site of [thee scapegoated], & why that comes down on someone & how that plays out. endless ideas about how someone weird(tm) & disabled (&/or queer. but there's no Or here lol. & again like it's a Context like, to even be the one person without kids? likely not living up to "full" correct sexuality in that way alone; any oppression's logics of "inferiority" being logics of ableism, ready examples being that "inferior" race, gender, sexuality (& their experiences as people classed as inferior) all being pathologized as disordered) are seen & treated as someone Ruining Things & who cannot belong like whew. bracing. winding. which, i also recall like i was watching with headphones & during this one dialogue pause i was like "?? what's this Extra Sound i heard there" & had to go over it like twice before being hit upside the head like well it Was still the dialogue pause but it was also bruno Stuttering in a very quiet whisper for the duration of that pause before continuing like iiiiiiii x_x

"This post makes a great blocklist" has done awful things to my psyche. Why do I keep wasting what builds up to hours of my time reading all of this dumb shit just to block people?? It's block and move on, not black and move and block and move and block and move and-

My boyfriends parents, upon learning about me for the first time less than a month ago: a deluge of excited messages to their son asking all about me and when they can meet me, inviting me to stay at their house, asking when we're going to get married, wanting to spend time with me and get to know me, saying how much they like me and want to see me again, HUGGING me and being affectionate towards me, thanking me for being there

Versus

My mother, who has been hearing about my boyfriend for months, responding to me asking if we could go for dinner so she could meet him: [extended awkward silence] um... well. I don't know. I think I should see you on your own first (because that always bodes well) [doesn't express any enthusiasm, interest or make any arrangements]

Radical calls:

The age of consent should be defined federally, not by state, regardless of "parental permission"

Unionize sex workers (not exactly radical, but worth mentioning)

Unionize "grunt" workers (including adjunct professors)

Either raise the enlistment age or lower the legal drinking age.

The ages of consent and enlistment, and drinking age should be defined by a panel of those with stellar expertise in the requisite fields within the healthcare community, not the judiciary.

The boards of education (federal and state) should be broken up by child developmental categories, each range headed by an panel of experts (without a heirarchy) within the education community

[pokichusramblings]

A lot of non-religious Jews still celebrate Hanukkah, and nobody says Hanukkah is secular. Plus, a lot of non-Christians celebrate Easter even though Easter is ABSOLUTELY a Christian holiday. Just because a holiday can be celebrated by anyone of any culture doesn’t erase that holiday’s ties to a specific religion.

'Tis the season to unpack some stuff about Christmas from a minority perspective:

Christmas is a Christian holiday. The fact that many celebrate it in an irreligious way (which is valid!) does not change its origins, connotations, symbolism, nor what it has historically meant for religious minorities.

The idea that Christmas is "secular" (read: neutral) is a product of Christian hegemony and the blindness of many in Christian countries to the permeation of Christianity as "default" culture.

When someone says they don't celebrate Christmas since it's a Christian holiday, it is not actually reassuring or helpful to say something along the lines of "oh well it's just a secular day of family & presents for everyone! So you can celebrate it too!"

Though the above statement is usually well-intentioned, it is often distressing to hear because it is untrue and is erasing our lived experiences. The reflexive effort to make Christmas universal is a cultural reverberation of the millennia-old evangelizing effort to make Christianity universal, and as such, can be very uncomfortable for religious minorities.

Got A Startup Idea? Wall Printing Machine----Best Entrepreneur Project in 2025

Why a Wall Printing Machine Is the Best Business Idea for 2025

Picture this: turning plain, boring walls into jaw-dropping designs while raking in cash. Here's why a wall printing business is the hottest opportunity for 2025-and how you can jump in.

What's a Wall Printing Business All About?

At its heart, a wall printing business uses cutting-edge industrial printers to slap custom designs straight onto walls, floors, glass, metal, or even wood etc. This isn't your run-of-the-mill decorating gig-it's a total game-changer. Here's what makes it stand out:

Unlimited Customization: Got a photo, logo, or some wild AI-generated art? Turn it into a wall-sized stunner. Your creativity's the only limit.

Lightning Fast: Traditional murals take days; this tech knocks it out in hours-90% faster. Time's money, and you're saving both.

Surface Freedom: Brick, glass, tile, or funky uneven spots-name it, wall printer machine prints on it. Traditional methods can't touch that.

Built to Last: Indoor wall printing effect can hold strong for over 10 years, and they're eco-friendly. It's a durable, green win.

 

Is Wall Printing a Good Business? Let's Break It Down

You're probably wondering, "Sounds cool, but can I make real money with a 3D wall printing machine business?" Spoiler: Yes. Here's the scoop.

The Market's Begging for It

The global architectural surface decoration market hit$2.12 Billion in 2025 (Business Research Insights), and custom printing services are growing at a wild 21% per year. From hip cafes to shopping malls, old homes to public streets, everyone's clamoring for personalized wall art. Your clients? Entrepreneurs, artists, graphic designers, small business owners, homeowners, even parents sprucing up a kid's room. The wall printing business is booming, and it's not just walls-think floors, tiles, glass, you name it.

Competition? Barely a Whisper

Here's the best part: this industry's still a hidden gem. Most folks don't even know vertical wall printing businesses exist. That's your chance to swoop in, claim your turf, and own the market before it's overrun. Early movers win big.

Profit Margins That Pop

Running a wall printer business is lean, which means big bucks for you. In Europe, wall printing services charge $120–$150 per square meter (more in Western Europe), per TANYU customer feedback. In North America and Europe, profit margins average over 60%. That's some serious 3D wall printing machine business profit right there.

Startup Costs? Chill, It's Low

"I need a fortune to start, right?" Nope. All you need is a solid wall printing machine-no fancy office required. Kick things off from your garage or a tiny studio. Most machines are plug-and-play, so you don't need to be a tech genius. Risks? Low. Follow local rules, master the machine, and you're golden.

 

4 Ways to Cash In with a Wall Printing Business

Ready to stack that paper? Here's how you can profit with a 3D wall printing business:

1. Personal User

The Opportunity: This is your bread-and-butter market. Homeowners, artists, and interior design enthusiasts are eager for personalized wall prints to elevate their spaces. Examples include:

Kids' Room Revamps in Germany: Think whimsical forest scenes or superhero murals.

Graffiti-Style Walls in the U.S.: Bold, urban art for trendy lofts.

Old Home Facelifts in the UK: Vintage patterns to refresh aging properties.

Artist Showcases in France: Gallery-style prints for creative studios.

Print for personal homeowner

Expansion Ideas:

Niche Targeting: Offer themed packages like "Nursery Magic" or "Minimalist Living" to appeal to specific demographics-parents, young professionals, or retirees.

Seasonal Designs: Promote holiday-themed prints (e.g., Christmas murals) or summer refresh options to keep demand steady year-round.

Upselling: Bundle prints with design consultations or post-installation touch-up services for added revenue.

Why It Works: Demand is skyrocketing as people seek unique, affordable alternatives to traditional decor. With social media amplifying "before-and-after" transformations, clients are practically knocking down your door.

2. Corporate Customer 

The Opportunity: Businesses like cafes, gyms, malls, and design firms offer higher margins and repeat contracts. Think:

Seasonal Window Art for Stores: Eye-catching displays to draw in foot traffic.

Gym Murals: Motivational designs for fitness buffs.

Instagram-Ready Restaurant Backdrops: Picture-perfect walls for social media buzz.

Expansion Ideas:

Subscription Models: Offer quarterly updates (e.g., seasonal refreshes) for steady cash flow-restaurants and retailers love this predictability.

Branding Packages: Help businesses integrate logos, slogans, or corporate colors into wall designs for a cohesive look.

Eco-Friendly Pitch: Use sustainable inks to attract green-conscious companies, a growing trend in corporate responsibility.

Why It Works: Businesses see wall printing as a cost-effective way to enhance ambiance and brand identity. A single gym chain contract could keep you busy for months.

3. Government and Institutional Work

The Opportunity: These projects are harder to land but offer massive payouts. Examples include:

Restoring Historic Buildings: Recreating faded frescoes or period designs.

School Hallway Murals or Hospital Guides: Educational or wayfinding prints that serve a purpose.

Expansion Ideas:

Partnerships: Team up with construction firms or architects bidding on public projects-they'll value your specialized skills.

Grant Funding: Research government arts or heritage grants to offset costs and make your bid more competitive.

Portfolio Power: Showcase past work (even mock-ups) to prove your ability to handle large-scale, detail-oriented jobs.

Why It Works: Public sector budgets are often generous, and these projects boost your credibility for future gigs. One restored town hall could lead to a dozen school contracts.

4. Equipment Rental

The Opportunity: Rent out your wall printer to DIY enthusiasts, event planners, or small businesses for passive income. Secure it with a solid contract and deposit.

Expansion Ideas:

Training Add-On: Offer a quick tutorial with each rental to ensure proper use-and charge extra for it.

Event Rentals: Target wedding planners or trade show organizers needing temporary, custom backdrops.

Subscription Rentals: Provide long-term leases to startups testing the wall printing waters.

Why It Works: Your machine earns money while you sleep, and it's a low-effort way to diversify income. Just keep maintenance schedules tight to avoid breakdowns.

A wall printing business isn't just about slapping ink on drywall-it's about creativity, strategy, and hustle. By mastering these four income streams and building a smart launch plan, you'll turn blank walls into a thriving enterprise. Ready to make your mark? Grab your wall printer and start stacking that wall!

 

Why It's a 2025 Game-Changer

So, is wall printing a good business for 2025? Hell yeah. Here's why it's primed to explode:

High Demand, Low Competition: Most people haven't seen this tech. Be the first in your city and watch the jobs pour in.

Low Cost, Fast Payback: No storefront, no big crew. Many recoup their investment in a handful of jobs-then it's pure profit.

Easy to Learn, Easy to Grow: Training's included. Master it, then scale up with a team or bigger gigs.

Works Anywhere: Small towns or big cities, local businesses and homeowners want to stand out. You've got the fix.

B2B: Retailers (window displays), hotels (lobby art), shops (branding)

Government: Schools, museums, city projects

Google your area-any wall printing businesses nearby? Check their game plan.

2. Pick the Right Machine
