More information can be found on my tumblr, linked below, and in my ko-fi.

If ko-fi doesn't work, my cashapp is $sparkglow, and I have a paypal you can ask for in DM's.

I'm very tired, and very scared.

Hi.

I was recently hit with some troubling medical diagnoses, and I need help covering the costs of some equipment that will help me manage it all. Namely a glucose monitor, an organizer for my medications, and a new space heater so I don't freeze. More info below. #mutualaid

My ko-fi also functions as a regular ol' donations box, so you can find a link to my main page below if you'd like to help me get some of my emergency fund back in case something bad happens.
I also have a cashapp ($sparkglow) and a paypal that you can ask for in DM's on ko-fi.

Hi! I'm Suzie, and I'm in a perpetually not-so-great financial situation. I have bracelet commissions open as a way to stay afloat and things have been getting way scarier here as of late, so if you're inclined, consider helping a native lesbian out. #mutualaid

From 2019, #paleoart of the asteroid-induced tidal wave that crashed into the southern coast of the United States at the end of the Cretaceous period. It's probably not shown large enough here, even though it dwarfs the giant titanosaur Alamosaurus. #sciart #paleontology #extinction

A giant long-necked dinosaur is silhouetted against the arrival of a breaking wave that towers 60 m into the air. Water explodes over land inches away from the dinosaur's body: obliteration is less than a second away. Within the surge are branches and trees while, above, the sky is lit by the expanding plasma and burning ejecta of the asteroid impact. And you thought _your_ Monday morning wasn't going well.

Fresh out of the oven, some new #paleoart for #FossilFriday: mother Coelodonta antiquitatis hurries along her offspring, Bort, who spent too long looking for a personalised novelty licence plate on the mammoth steppe. "Come along, Bort!", she says. #fossil #Iceage #paleontology

A mother and juvenile woolly rhinoceros walking over an expanse of grass and forbs at sunset. The adult has a dark mane and thick dark stripe around her midriff, and dark brown hair over her shoulders, face and rump. The juvenile has uniform light hair, as indicated by fossil data.

Some new #paleoart of Iguanodon for #FossilFriday. Iguanodon recently passed its 200th naming anniversary and it's been drawn to death (it was - and I've done the maths on this - by far the most popular dinosaur subject of the 19th century), but it's still a cool animal to paint. #sciart #fossil

A large, orange, white and green dinosaur pauses midstep on a cloudy day in the Early Cretaceous, amid small conifers (Pseudofenelopsis) and Tempskya tree ferns. She rears slightly from the dusty orange ground and looks to her right, lifting her thumb-spiked hands into the air. She seems deep in thought, perhaps wondering if she turned the stove off. Is she getting more forgetful now that she's over 200 years old? No: she _did_ turn the stove off, and she's not forgetful, just busy. Not all dinosaurs have sustained palaeoartistic interest for as long as she has, and she's as in demand now as much as ever. You go, girl.

happy #fossilfriday! this is parapuzosia, a giant ammonite from late cretaceous africa, europe, and north america. it is the largest ammonite currently known, with some estimates putting its weight at over a tonne
