Hello, everyone. It's hard to be so direct with our fundraising requests, but we are pretty desperate. Donations have been slow this month, our expenses are piling up, and now Shadow is back at the vet today for an emergency visit. She has had a persistent cloudiness in her left eye that we and our vet have been monitoring, and today the eye appears sunken in with swelling around the socket. Our vet is concerned there may be a mass behind her eye. ��

We have been treading water with an approximately $2000 deficit in our vet fund, and today's visit could easily add another few hundred to that total. An emergency visit runs $155, and skull rads will be another $275, and that's before any potential treatments are considered. We know times are really tough right now and most everyone is struggling. Please take care of yourselves first, but if you have extra to spare, we appreciate it so much.

Rattober Day 23: Stamp rat
I felt lazy for using images of real stamps but don’t worry: it was pretty time consuming to erase and then draw round all the lil scalloped edges. I bet there’s a quicker way but I am unskilled. I like that my red-eyed rat has glasses #petrats #rattober #cuteart

Drawing of rats at an art gallery where all of the paintings are stamps. Is the scale right? It is not. Rats aren’t that small; stamps aren’t that big. But drawing it to scale wouldn’t be as cute. The rats are bipedal and interested. One rat scratches their chin. A parent rat holds their child’s hand and looks where the kid is pointing. An elderly white rat with red eyes and glasses squints at a leaflet. In the foreground, two rats sit cuddled on a bench, their bags on the ground beside them. The stamps are vintage USPS designs: postcard-style images from Hawaii and Nevada, a cherub with LOVE across it, a diagram of the arnica flower, a racing stagecoach (this is what the kid rat is looking at), an old-timey baseball plater, Marianne from France and a Spanish stamp with a painted harbour scene.

Not seeing much on my timeline about it anymore, so here's a reminder: payment processors are still trying to censor NSFW content of all kinds, and are in fact getting more aggressive about it; I'm seeing stories of folks losing access every day

Call them & tell them THIS IS BULLSHIT

Stop payment processors from censoring games!

Rattober Day 20: Abstract Rat. Ok so how do you do abstract rat while still clearly communicating that it is a rat? By doing a tribute to an obscure piece by everyone’s favourite abstract artist, Kandinsky, that’s how! This was huge fun to do #rattober #inktober

Painterly comic of a rat balancing by their nose on an orange ball. Brushstrokes are visible and the shapes simplified, as if in the style of an abstract painting. The background is blue, and the rat is basically a white triangle with a purple tip and simplified pink ears, nose, hands and feet. The tail is a pink squiggle. The rat might also seem to be falling through the sky, because of some white streaks behind and above them, which look a bit like motion lines. The truth is in the eye of the beholder. The composition of the image is a loose tribute to Kandinsky’s 1924 painting “Contact.”

Kandinsky’s 1924 painting, “Contact.” The background is golden-orange, and a large black or very dark blue scalene triangle is balancing atop a very dark blue circle, which is half in the frame at the bottom of the image. A bright pink circle hovers like a bubble at the topmost corner of the triangle, while a number of straight lines run across it. A bold red squiggle cuts through the middle. At the bottom left, a number of smaller triangles also balance on their tips on a blue shape, while a darker orange rectangle that looks like a brick wall hovers above them

If you're quiet about your disabilities, you get accused of being a fake. If you're outspoken, you get accused of being attention seeking.

Disabled people deserve to be believed and supported without hate. We deserve to be able to thrive.

I'm so glad that in Pokémon Legends Z-A that shiny Pokémon are so easy to notice. Between the sound, the color and the sparkles on screen. I really appreciate it as a disabled player. Cause I don't always notice things due to my disabilities.

A brilliant engineer must work with the scientist who trapped thousands in small gems to save them, but to do so, they will need to learn to trust one another—with the science, with their loved ones, and with their confused aro hearts.

An arrow trope image where several elements point to a central cover. The cover features a masc person and a child stand in a city street with their back to the viewer. The child is pointing towards a flock of birds swooping through the sky. The entire cover is in tones of blue, and it is clearly set in winter.
The surrounding information includes: the evil scientist who betrayed ols community, fixing what’s broken / aftermath story, three arospec leads with messy relationships to romance, the chaos of a six cats household, may contain Baker Thief characters, the gender feels of choosing a body for yourself, fantasy city and spring traditions inspired by Quebec City
