Just an observation... I do a simular type of work, balloon twisting, as a side hustle. Every lib i make a balloon for their kid just assumed I'm a lib also - I guess they think only libs can be good at creative endeavors? I don't correct them, I just smile and nod because their money is better in my pockets then theirs. Almost every family entertainment type person I've talked to seem pretty based, self-employment type work tends to draw people with that mindset.
