Whether you celebrate Christmas, or another holiday around this time of year, or no holiday at all, I wish you all a happy day. There are many people across the globe who will wake up today, or who already have, and open presents from under a decorated tree. Have breakfast with their family. Sing joyful songs. Laugh and drink and play. Maybe build snowmen, or throw snowballs. It's a time for merriment and love.

I just want to say to all of you, that I am glad you're here on earth. I'm happy to share this universe with you. And I hope your day is a wonderful one. Take care, peace and love, happy holidays.

So, I tried to avoid putting this here... I thought I could manage on my own. But shit hit the fan.

So, here's what's going on.

A while ago I broke up with someone I had been dating for about a year. That relationship was taking a huge toll on me, and ended up costing me two jobs and three apartments. In fact, I'm currently homeless. Have been since October.

My belongings are currently in a storage unit, that's covered right now. My parents are helping me pay for it until January, and then my new job starts and I'll be able to pay for it from then on. But my ESA cat, Pumpkin, is currently staying at a cat hotel while I figure things out, and his stay ends on December 20th. So, tomorrow. The cat hotel only accepts payment upon pickup, and it's about $300 for the amount of time he's been staying there. I legitimately thought I would have earned that money by now with temp work, but no place has hired me and now it's too late. I'm completely out of money, I don't have the funds to pay for Pumpkin, and I'm terrified I'm going to lose him. I don't think I can go on if that happens... He's all I've been living for lately. I'm scared...

On top of that, the phone bill is coming up, and I still haven't taken my phone off the shared plan with my ex and our daughter. My ex has been paying the phone bill since the breakup, and they can't this month. They asked me to. It's $170 for the three phones on the plan.

So I need $500 as soon as I can get it, $300 of that basically by tomorrow.

I try not to talk about my personal life on here, or ask for donations here. But I don't know where else to turn on such short notice. At this point it would be irresponsible of me to not ask. So, I'm really begging... Please.

My PayPal link is PayPal.me/Twilightinsanity and I am willing to offer art or writing in exchange if any of y'all will help me deal with this. Please, I can't lose my cat. I can't. It'll kill me if he's gone.

Apparently there's people impersonating artists, and claiming that folks have won YCHs or auctions but are unable to accept the prizes so you won instead. You can read more about it here:

Please be careful, everyone.

My friend has just opened up commissions in order to pay for their cat to be seen by a vet. The poor thing is very ill. They have a journal here about it.

Please, anything helps.

I have unfortunate news. Due to the fact that my enbyfriend is starting to go down the path of clinical hoarding, I find myself homeless once again. I'm receiving monetary help from friends and family to seek new housing separately from my Enbyfriend, and storage for my personal belongings (what's survived of it, anyway). Currently I am staying at a hotel while on a waiting list for a family shelter, though I will likely end up either camping outside in a tent, or going to the mission shelter, soon. As such, I'm unable to have my drawing/writing tools with me and cannot take on any commissions. I will update y'all as soon as I can when my situation becomes more stable. In the meantime, stay safe and warm. I know I'm going to be struggling to do that...

I want to say I'm sorry to everyone for not getting the art slave auction started as promised. Alot of things came up and took all my time and energy to deal with. I won't go into further detail here.

I have some projects in the wings, and you may see me get my first novel started, with the possibility of a Patreon account and monthly rewards for patrons. This is going to be possible because I'm finally getting my laptop repaired, pending postage funds.

Also a reminder that my sale on commissions is still going on. Get'em while you can!

I wish you all a very good end to the summer. Stay safe, stay healthy, and be kind to each other.

Peace~

Just a reminder that I have a sale going on where all my commission prices are 25% off for August and September. I'm planning on doing regular sales from now on. Stay tuned for more deals. As a promotional, anyone who makes a boost journal post of this journal post will receive an additional $5 off their next order (stacks with the commission sale).

I also have an art slave auction in the wings for September. I'm having to push it back so that it starts Tuesday the 24th of August and ends on the 31st.

Due to losing my job, paying all our bills is seeming impossible now. Right now a vet bill is $200 more than we were originally quoted, and we have no way of paying it. I can't leave the vet until we at least set up a payment plan. Needing help badly.

I recently posted an update mentioning I will be holding an art slave auction. Unfortunately right after I did, I became unbelievably busy. I am forced to push the auction back.

I will hold the auction from August 25th through August 31st. The auction will end September 1st at midnight of August 31st. The winner will be announced at closing and privately contacted, and I will be their art slave for the month of September.

As stated in my previous journal, the bidding will start at $50 and minimum increase is $5.

Also, a reminder that I currently have a sale going on for the months of August and September. All my usual commission prices are 25% off. Please consider commissioning me.

Hello watchers! Hope you're having a good fun summer.

My new job just cut my hours to less than half of what they originally were, and this is in addition to the fact that they pay me less per hour than my previous job. I'm finding it impossible to keep up with bills and food costs at this rate. My bank account is almost constantly in the negatives due to insufficient funds fees. And all my hobbies have been put on hold for months.

This being the case, I'm searching for a new job, and also planning a commission sale. Until the end of September, all my commission prices will be 25% off. I'm eager to draw or write to your heart's content.

I am also offering a chance to win me as an art slave for the month of September. The Art Slave Auction will start August 1st at 8am, and end August 8th at midnight. The starting bid will be $50, and minimum bid increase is $5.

I'm looking to move to Portland, Oregon soon, so I hope to save up some moving funds.

My friend is doing $5 full-bodies in the link above.

So the owner of our apartment is a racist. Full stop. He had us undergo an inspection last month, and we broke our bodies cleaning to get ready for it. We passed that inspection, but the owner said he didn't believe we could keep it clean, and insisted on another inspection right afterwards, and sent a termination of lease notice. We spent every last spoon we had getting the place cleaner than when we moved in, and were feeling really good about it. We didn't pass the inspection. We have until the 30th of April to be out.

We have two small children, three cats (plus a litter of kittens literally days old), a chihuahua, and our furniture and belongings. But we don't have any money until May 1st. We've been looking for housing all month, but nothing we can get in a week.

I spent years struggling to get work, and housing, and a family... Finally bought my first piece of furniture.... Got my cat to be my ESA. It's all falling apart now. All because the landlord doesn't like the colour of my partner and kids' skin.

I'm desperate. Please, somebody help...

An artist I follow, is having her birthday, but she doesn't much like to celebrate. Instead, she wants people to help her friend not be thrown out on the street. As someone who has been homeless quite a long amount of my life, this really hits home to me. I am spreading their message. You can read Nicky's journal here:

February 16th, 2021, I have turned 31 years old. I had a wonderful birthday, thanks to my beloved enbyfriend, Nexus. they sent me via Lyft to a surprise location. it was Barnes & Noble. I had been given an envelope to hand to the cashier, who read it and then went and brought me a gift card with $150 on it! among the items I purchased with this gift was Betrayal At The House On The Hill, a horror-themed board game which I love. I hope to play it with friends soon.

A wonderful artist by the name of is doing a raffle for free art. It can be found here: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/9728753/

I'm hoping to get my Dark Elf Vampire OC.

Someone very dear to me has been severely negatively impacted by the covid19 pandemic. They aren't sick, thank goodness. But they haven't had much work this past two weeks and have only been paid $15.80 in their last paycheck. They had to ask their parents for money, which they absolutely hate. They told me they feel like a failure as a child because they can't get any presents for their dad or their grandpa. It would mean the world to me if you could donate to them at paypal.me/aliceisreal and/or signal boost this journal. Those who donate $10 or more will receive gift art from me. Your choice of illustration or written.

This time my sister's boyfriend's mom. I never liked her, and he never got along with her. Their relationship was extremely fraught. Karen was a grade A hypocrite, and frankly a terrible mother to Jack. But she didn't deserve to die like this. It was a car accident. Goodness knows whether she was driving drunk or sober. But I don't wanna be accusatory.

She wasn't very old. Probably in her 40's? She wasn't necessarily a bad person. She was an anarchist, a progressive, a feminist, fighting the good fight. She had flaws like anyone else. Her own mom treated her like shit, so it's understandable that she didn't turn out to be the best parent herself. Not like she had a good role model. She was trying to not be like her mom.

I've already been having a hard time with survivors guilt lately. This is just one more person who left this world while I still live. Another person who actually had direction in her life that was snuffed out, while I have no idea what to do with a life that's lasted way longer than I ever thought it would. Life is wasted on me. It's not fair.

I'm worried about Jack. I dunno how this is going to affect him. We were gonna come visit Radha and Jack, but they don't want us to. So I guess we're just gonna wallow in awkward grief.

I don't celebrate that racist holiday.

Trump is still refusing to concede, and he Senate looks like it will still be in Republican control. But democracy lives to see another 4 years, and fascism has not germinated in America. I don't expect progressive change. But holding our ground for 4 to 8 years is a victory all the same. I'm looking forward to 2028 (and hoping we draft Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for president) for the real leap forward. Meanwhile, I am hoping president Biden can and will keep his promise of rights under the law for trans people like me.

I know that my page has been pretty inactive lately. I haven't been drawing or writing much lately. this is because I've been really busy and overwhelmed IRL. I've been staying at my new enbyfriend's apartment instead of my own, and also slowly moving into their apartment. in addition to that, we're looking to move out of THEIR apartment into a new house, preferably a 3-bedroom house.

I've also been working 40 hours a week now, since picking up a second client in my day job. this is good, because it doubled my income (not even counting the pay raise). but because I am now a parent, and my enbyfriend is disabled and has chronic pain, I've also been doing the housework, cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, putting the kids to bed... this has been cutting into my sleep. so I've been exhausted. I don't get to bed until the kids fall asleep, which often isn't until midnight because they keep getting out of bed hours after we put them to bed.

but my enbyfriend's only pair of glasses have broken in half. we are broke, and need cash for new glasses or contact lenses. I made a journal about that earlier, which you can find here: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/9664504/

so most likely, the only art you'll be seeing from me for a while is commission art. please, please, PLEASE commission me! we've only gotten a $20 donation so far, and our funds are quickly drying up. plus, I'll be out of work for a couple weeks, visiting my family in Florida for my sister's birthday (she's turning 21!).

there is a possibility that you'll also see some character art of my enbyfriend's new D&D characters. they made a 5th edition character who
s half-elf/half-tiefling and a druid. and they will be making a 3.5e character next. so I'm excited to make ref sheets of those characters, and hopefully commission some artists to make better quality portraits than I can draw yet. :)

anyway, I ho[e this update finds y'all well! with the country on fire, a plague rampaging through the world, and funds low for everybody, I think we could all use a little positivity right about now. drink water, eat something, take your meds, remember your therapy appointments, wear your mask, and don't forget to be awesome~

I love y'all. stay safe. peace~ <3

Get the FUCK off my page. Block me. My art isn’t for you, and I want nothing to do with your art.
