I don't know where everyone is coming from, but welcome! I'll post a picture of this sewing project I've been working on soon~

I love Kandi.

I have never been in a rave in my life, I'm so far removed from Rave culture, I wouldn't even be able to poke it with a ten-foot pole even if I wanted to.

Kandi just lights up Crow Brain™️.

Help this lovely individual get basic needs fulfilled!

If all of my followers donated just 25 cents, my life would literally change for the better. I could pay rent and get gas for my job - something I cannot do both of right now.

Interested in an art commission or a piece of writing? DM me and pay whatever you want!💖

Art will return at some point. I am currently focusing on a sewing project.

So, if kids are not going to be trick-or-treating, it could be fun to see adults trading candy.

Who needs kids when you can barter for a Hershey's with your Butterfinger?

Yup. Saw it when I went to check Tumblr.

Crazy the amount of common scams I seem to somehow dodge.

Art Question of the Day #6:

What art fundamentals are you weak in?

If you throw something at me, I will cook, and I will throw something back at you.

This is not a threat.

This is a warning.

I personally would just block if it hits me in the ouchies, but responding would be a really funny use case for that hate monologue from I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream.

Found several good bags at the thrift store oggi. I can't wait to Ita-fy them! Either for myself or for my business.

Wait! Before you buy a cheap low-quality ita bag from Aliexpress, why not consider buying an ita bag from a small artist business instead?

A tiny bag with a cloth backing with pawprints in the display pocket.

The front of the backpack has a metallic sheen and a heart-shaped transparent window.

The bags I offer are sourced from second-hand and I bring them new life by adding a display pocket, if needed, and making a backing or two for them. Since I did nothing to these bags, all you need to pay for are the backings!

I have a lot of mutual aid to offer. 💖 Let’s trade! Or pay whatever price you want for an art commission or for a piece of writing. I can help you write an essay or article. I can draw, paint, or write a world with your OC. I am also an experienced tutor, researcher, and data collector. I love you!💖

Pride month may be over, but you can still save a trans person’s life with just a few dollars:

Bluesky is not good for artists who want to eat and have shelter in general. Whether they're framing it as mutual aid or not. 🫠

I don't know of any platform that's not Twitter nor owned by Meta that would be good for artists who are trying to get that bread.
