Link 1: My Art Thread
It's like an art blog, isn't it? I'm liking that idea now I've started one.
Link 2: My Ko-fi Page
I'm experimenting with the options there, because I need money. Advice about how to set up my page or shop or promo could be useful if you've got any.

Others need money, too. Trans Rescue is helping people flee oppressive countries.
I've donated art to be included in a collaborative sticker set, which is supposed to be available soon. Sales of the stickers and other beautiful items that were handmade for this fundraiser will contribute to Trans Rescue.
Saving trans, intersex, and other targeted people from the United States of America is now one of the charity's priorities because of threats from the criminal government that is currently expected to be taking over in January 2025. We need all the support we can get.
If you have funds to spare before December 15th, you can help while getting unique art for yourself.
If you don't: yeah, I understand. I hope you have a few minutes to appreciate the images of our art that are posted online.

I don't know what's going on with the FEMA representatives for my state. I'm guessing they need better training. They're all giving off "I started this job a week ago!" and "We're can fake it until we make it!" vibes. That's not exactly reassuring when the process is confusing, convoluted, and unnecessarily painful. Just saying.
My home needs repairs after one of the recent hurricanes tore at it. Insurance is covering too little, and I'm not the type of insane to take out a federal loan in a situation that we've stuck with right now. Local loans are extremely unlikely because of discrimination. If we can't get the money for repairs... look, I don't really want to go back to living in a tent or an overpriced hotel. I've never wanted to go back to that. And I'm the most adaptable in my household.
Storm recovery is stressful like this.
