i draw in my spare time, and i’ve set up a ko-fi for tips! every tip gets you a drawing or sketch (i’ve set sketches as the base price and fully done pics to $10 or more) if you do donate, please message me here so i know!

i do have various health issues and tend to vent about them from time to time. 

my blog doesn’t really have a set theme, but i tend to talk about and draw katakuri from one piece a LOT. (he’s my fictional other, but don’t worry i dont gatekeep him or anything)

The United States government is literally disappearing people to a gulag with no due process and yet it's the stock market crash that has finally pissed conservatives off.

the other 25% shouldn't be in mega-prison either, btw

Johnny Joestar and Gyro Zeppeli first look, Steel Ball Run TV anime.

The White House bragging about how many different countries have reached out to negotiate in response to the tariffs reminds me of that part of Disco Elysium where you have the option to put a loaded gun in your mouth and threaten to pull the trigger as a negotiating tactic. It is certainly one way to start a conversation!

fearsome fangs friday!!!!!!!!!! bite everyone

hi y’all i just wanted to put you onto this fundraiser for the buffalo nations grasslands alliance. they’re trying to recoup some of the funds for black-footed ferret conservation on tribal grounds that the trump/musk administration has frozen, which is impacting not only the conservation efforts themselves but the livelihoods of the people working on them. the frozen grant is 1.1 million but this fundraiser has a goal of 50,000.

the fundraiser has 24 days left and has only reached 2% of its goal with 11 donations. black-footed ferrets are an endangered lazarus taxon that was thought to be extinct from 1979-1981 before being rediscovered by accident. they’re a miracle of conservation and it would be horrible to lose them for good, not to mention (again) the impact of people working with these animals losing their jobs which is outlined in the fundraiser link. indigenous-led conservation efforts are extremely important for a wide variety of reasons and as someone in the zoology area i feel obligated to share this fundraiser to contribute to those efforts.

i know that things are hard right now and there’s a lot of people and organizations all across the world that need help, so don’t feel pressured BUT if you have extra money and you can contribute to this fundraiser or share it with people who can that would be great.

You're gender identity? why? I mean, penis isn't that bad . I stink it sometimes, like in my mouth an stuff. Not gay or anything though even though my mom says so. Merry Christmas dude

I really really like this ask. I really really really like this one

I cannot tell what you're trying to say to me but this is my favorite ask I've ever gotten. What

i saw a license plate this morning that said ‘drgn slr’ which probably means ‘dragon slayer’ but ‘dragon slur’ is funnier. dragon faggot. draggot if you will.

It feels unfair not to show yall the Faggin at this point, this is the dragon the kid was holding

I'm really trying to be cool about it and not be an ass or nothing but goddamn. A lot of you really do punch down at nonbinary people to make yourselves feel better. Come the fuck on.

It's so pervasive now that I always feel like I'm gonna be read as an asshole for even trying to bring attention to it. Nobody seems to give a fuck but nonbinary people. Even then, I don't really see many people talking about it. Everybody's kinda just been keeping their heads down. Fuckin' everyone I know only really talks about it with other nonbinary people at this point because everybody else is such a fucking asshole about it. Quit doing this diminutive, infantilizing straw-manning bullshit. Quit making up reasons to shit on nonbinary people for being nonbinary. Quit using it as a reason to make fun of The Bad Ones that you thought were cringe. It's not gonna win you any points. You're just hurting people to make yourself feel better. You are actively participating in the progress of reactionary culture. You are being a shithead when you do that. I'm tired of seeing it every fucking day, everywhere I look. I'm so goddamn tired of seeing people I like, people I know who are better than that, doing exactly this kind of bullshit and cracking the same cheeky jokes fucking white supremacists make about me and my friends. Good god. Grow the fuck up, everybody. Stick up for other people for once. Christ on the fucking cross.

generally you shouldn't write run-on sentences because they get confusing and it doesn't give the reader a break. that doesn't apply to me though my run-on sentences are fun and understandable and they have a rhythm to it that makes you want to keep reading

Dudes healthcare is so fake. My ADHD meds are $940 without insurance. But they gave me a website of "coupons" which straight up looks like a scam website, and I got it today for $60! Just a coupon from a random website and it was $900 cheaper. America, I am confusion!! America explain!!

For all my uninsured judys out there it's for Walgreens only: walgreens.rxsense.com

as a pharmacy technician i can share with you some websites that give you those "coupons" for your meds!

goodrx is the most well known one, but if i'm trying to find the cheapest price for a patient i compare it to scriptcycle, and use whichever is offering the best price. you just type in the medication (PLEASE make sure you're getting the right drug, dosage, and quantity) and your zip code and they will spit out some offers for you

some pharmacies may have their own discount card to compare to as well!

if you are getting a name brand medication, you can also look at the manufacturer's website to see if they offer any evouchers for you to use too

good luck out there 👍

another one is singlecare.com, brought my duloxetine from $240 a month to $20

and there are coupons for hrt on there as well :) different options for different pharmacies

dollarfor.org saved my broke ass, it can save urs too
