not-fun

"hi, i want to use your art for my mural!"

i can't be the only one getting this spam from different bots several times a month. i'm starting to wonder if this is how the ai camp is trying to get around those of us who have opted out of having our work scraped for their art theft machine. "manufacture consent under false pretexts" sounds like the kind of executive business choice they'd make.

one of my most popular features of my patreon before i moved off their janky ass platform for ko-fi was that people could choose to give a monthly amount and then i would give them a monthly commission slot that reflected their support.

and i'm still doing it!!

only now it's for folks on my ko-fi membership!

i post a monthly letter and in that letter i provide a link and codeword for the backers to submit their art requests, just like i used to on patreon.

so c'mon, join me in the kofi house! even if i have to drink decaf for my anxiety, you might wanna just buy me a coffee or two per month :3

hey!!! so my birthday (as indicated by my little cake pixels) is coming up this sunday! and really, all i want? is to be able to buy a bulk supply of the arthritis medication my oldest cat needs. i made a gofundme for it, since its abt 300$ usd total and that's a fair chunk of change.

if you can contribute or just share it around, that'd be a huge help. really, literally, it's all i want for my birthday. to make my old lady comfortable, in a way that maybe breaks the bank slightly less.

anthro new england was amazing, i love that con. i'll make myself write up a proper journal for it on my website soon.

do you have a pokemon website?! for your collection, or your comics, or to show off your crafts? a blog is also cool!

i'm making a master list hub site thingie. share your site with me! i'll add you to it. it's a big work in progress right now tho haha

update!!! it’s good news!!!

tala’s biopsy report came back and its NOT malignant! that means it’s not a cancerous tumor!! just a GIANT NON CANCEROUS TUMOR thats PRESSING ON OTHER IMPORTANT ORGANS. but not cancer!!! he doesnt need to do chemo or radiation thank FUCK.

please still share his gfm and donate if you can, though, because obviously the tests/scans/biopsies and subsequent medical intervention to dealing w this tumor will still cost him.

thank you everyone who shared or kicked in, because it really -does- make emergency medical scares like this slightly less heart-stopping when you have less money anxiety floating around on top of everything else.
