I fking hate doing this, but at this point I don't have any choice but to, I need some serious help, anything helps, cuz im past due on some payments and im at risk of delinquency on my loans. I have next to nothing extra to spend on this (all my money is toward rent) and afraid if I don't pay~(1/3)

This is a call for emergency commissions because I can't afford to be fined or god forbid reported

I know I closed my BLFC badges, but as shown below I’m… still in an incredibly rocky position financially, especially with the con coming up.

I absolutely detest asking of this constantly, but any support is greatly appreciated 🙇🙇🙇

This is a warning to every artists and clients using PayPal: Leave the note blank or send invoices. Apparently even saying "commission" makes them trigger happy. #SaveSpeech #StopPaypros

IF YOU ARE GERMAN, YOU NEED TO CONTACT YOUR MEPs AND DEMAND THEY OPPOSE CHAT CONTROL

-RIGHT-

We are alarmed as well. If you are in Germany, write to your representatives. You'll find the email addresses here: 👉 tuta.com/blog/chat-co...

Signalapp on X: We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a
catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled
opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could
spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe.

If you have two minutes free right now, call Netflix and leave a comment in support of this programming and ask them to stand up for their shows against political pressure.

Phone number is 1-866-952-4456, and I waited less than a minute before a human picked up.

1. Led by Elon Musk, the far-right has exploded in a campaign to get Netflix to remove shows with queer and trans characters.

If Netflix capitulates to their demands, an already strained market for LGBTQ+ animators might become even more dire.

Per the advice of my friends, I am going through with a fundraiser to get me out of here . My friend has offered to let me stay with them until I can get my own place. Unfortunately, I can't offer more commissions outside of what I need to pay bills until Im caught up.

1-866-952-4456 to tell Netflix that in no way do you want Elon fucking Musk determining what you watch.

I just called, got through in about 15 seconds, and told them that I strongly support queer inclusion in their programming and that I will cancel my subscription if they cave.
