Hello, I'm Derpy Hooves, and I'm the companion to the most wonderful pony in the universe, The Doctor! I don't think he knows about my feelings, but that's okay...
My Gofundme has been updated to include the recent tragic death of my mother. Life has not been kind to me lately, and I could really use any help anyone can offer.
Please spread the word, because the next few months are going to be a nightmare.
One last tribute for my mom before returning to regularly scheduled content. This is a short about an alternate Derpy who is a single mother trying to comfort her daughter.
Go to our bandcamp now to find a memorial album for BaldDumboRat’s mother, featuring 6 of her songs, a version of her lullaby recorded over a phone, and 6 covers of “I’ll Wrap You in Rainbows” performed by BaldDumboRat and other composers.
Listen for free, but consider buying the album, as all proceeds go to her funeral costs.

Very painful news. I learned that my mother died in an apartment fire earlier today. She had been struggling with a manic episode for the past 8 months, not getting the help she desperately needed. I am going to make a memorial video for her to post on the Ponies With Pockets channel, and I want to ask if anyone wants to draw something in remembrance of her. You can submit to my inbox or email jitterbugcommissions@gmail.com Things to know about her that might help with ideas: -She loved birds, especially robins and cockatiels. Her name was Robin. -Her favorite movie was Hook, with Robin Williams who was her favorite actor -Her biggest special interest outside the Bible was the Beatles. She was especially obsessed with John Lennon. -She wrote the Derpy lullaby people might know, the “Wrap You in Rainbows” one, it was originally for me as a baby -She deeply believed in angels -Her favorite authors were JR Tolkein, and CS Lewis -She loved going to renaissance faires -She adored Dr Demento and Weird Al -Her favorite Disney movie is Dumbo because like Dumbo’s mother, she was almost separated from her baby for being “too dangerous” due to mental health -She loved playing guitar -She was insanely kind, to a fault, so kind that many awful people took advantage of her kindness. She suffered a lot through life but never stopped being kind and hopeful, and seeing the best in people. -Favorite colors were purple and robin’s egg blue -Was a writer and often represented herself with a robin, her slogan was “writing that sings”
Hey guys, this month has been pretty rough for my roommate and me, and we’re short on being able to pay some bills. We only have enough for rent right now, but we need to pay electricity and storage too plus a credit card payment, and I need money for food cuz I mostly only have rice and canned veggies right now.
We’d probably need about $500 to pay off all the bills and have enough for food for a bit.
The problem is my commission queue is extremely intimidating right now, so I really can’t do a sale or offer more slots. Repeat customers (have had 3 or more commissions from me) are welcome to commission me but it’s going to be a while before I can get any new commissions done unless a priority fee is paid.
However, my room mate is open for commissions and is in need of them, so if you want to help support us please consider commissioning @sinsays
Trying to raise money to move in the future so I can finally have my own room and more space for our things and just a better all place to be.
I will finally dub the rest of Lovestruck Derpy if I get enough donations to help with the move!
Anything that reaches the recording stage will be made eventually, but the edit and video goals will become a focus to get it done ASAP and then reaching 100% will get it released as soon as it can be.
PROGRESS:
All of Derpy and Doctor’s lines are recorded for part 7, currently waiting for NeoSurgeon lines. Will be recording Derpy’s lines for part 8 soon and have all characters for part 8 cast.
Costs this should help cover:
-Application Fee $100
-Deposit $500
-Rent for extra apartment for the moving month $1800
-Movers ??? (Need to calculate)
-Moving our storage stuff (Not as urgent, can wait for another time)
-Any fees for wear and tear on the old apartment (Unclear what sort of BS they’ll end up charging us for)
-Making our income look better (They want to see x2.5 the rent income from applicants)
If you can’t donate, a reblog for signal boosting would be appreciated!
I will have more fundraiser goals on my mod blog @jitterbugjive later
I thought I updated this earlier, I had the updated amount saved on my computer but I guess I never uploaded it and I didn’t realize that until I got 2 new donations. So sorry if it looked like I didn’t add someone’s donation earlier, I did but I forgot to update the amount here.
Anyways, still waiting on NeoSurgeon lines and I’m pretty helpless until I have all the content recorded. It’s the Holiday season though so I’m waiting until it’s over to bug the VA about it.
