Frame 3 actually is:

"Thanks for your work of love and passion and curiosity, and freely contributed open source software, I like it! With the help of amassed capital power, I'm going to blanket the market until my new company's name is all anyone can think of when they mention your previously free and fun hobby and are happy to subscribe to my monthly fee and privacy invasion of users which allows me to further monitor the efforts and contributions of others."

Topic aside: handmade, floating 3d speech bubbles!

Any time I talk about my hobbies, I get told that I have too much free time on my hands, and/or that I should turn said hobbies into a job/business.

It's like people are so capitalism-brained that they can't fathom someone having a passion for the sake of the passion itself, and not making a commodity out of it.

Also the phrase "you have too much free time on your hands" as a backhanded insult. People seem to abhor the idea of someone spending their time doing things for themselves instead of working. Or am I reading too much into that?

Oh hey my dad's in a comic. I love him, but dear lord dad sometimes things that are technically possible to profit from are just things you do for the love of doing them

The fastest way to ruin a hobby is to make it a side hustle, or worse, your job.

Joke’s on you capitalism, my employment EULA prohibits me from making outside income!

Don't worry, I make sure at least 50% of my hobbies are just consumerism in a trenchcoat. This keeps the other 50% pure.

I'm at the stage of burnout where all my hobbies feel like extra jobs, or at the very least like chores.

He better be using another folded sticky note to make those 3d instead of regular tape...
