So im basically going to preface this with: everything under this blurb is a copy and paste of the description of my gofundme.

First off: don’t feel obligated to donate if you can’t (I know the price is hefty). Just reblogging and sharing is enough. If you can donate then great! Still please reblog and share this along if you do.

Second: I dont often do this, reaching and asking out on tumblr, but here I guess lol. I currently do Commission based work, as well as some freelance, art and fanfiction (and beta (so long as it’s in my wheelhouse)). Aside from close friends who have come to me asking for commissions and freelance work, I haven’t been getting much traction on it at all, and it’s partly my fault for how slow I am with my work (yet it’s mostly the fault of the tech I use…) so! If you have seen my work, seen what I can do, and/or have commissioned me in the past, clicking on my gofundme will also help a lot.

Commission and freelance, coupled with being unemployed, is unfortunately slowgoing (though youd think or expect otherwise, right?), and I don’t make a whole lot just on commissions alone. Not only that, I’m also trying to save up for a new computer to get commissions out faster.

Also if you want to check out my commissions and prices, here’s the link (I know it says dm to inquire on the post, but don’t dm me on tumblr, I don’t have use of dms on tumblr)

I hope I can get some help, even if you just reblog this or something

Hey there, so I’m currently unemployed (looking for work) and without income. In order to do the work I do which is freelance and commissions, as few and far as they are, I need a proper working computer (preferably a desktop as opposed to a laptop).

I’ve had laptop after laptop in the past, they’ve all served me well. But as I’ve grown as a person and artist, my means of getting work out faster and faster have slowed and slowed, all due to my laptop performances.

I’ve gone the route of upgrading from laptop to laptop, as well as updating current laptops in the past, and while it did the job, it was only for a short while before I was soon met with the same, if not more, issues as the last.

Not only that, I can’t have open more than one program at a time (be it Discord, ClipStudio Paint, or even a browser (and no matter the browser I use—Chrome, Opera, or Firefox—it proves harder and harder to use.))

I’ve had nights where I spent hours just waiting for my laptop to work with me to bang out a new drawing, or write a new draft. Hours spent letting the laptop work out the issue on its own, or giving it a nudge along with a restart or shut down.

I’ve done all I could: cleared cache, removed unwanted files, brought in for professional diagnoses when needed, but nothing changed.

Due to this, I’m now turning to the masses for help, if possible. As I’ve said above, I’m unemployed with no income and no unemployment funds either. Any help is greatly appreciated for me to get a new desktop and continue my freelance work. I also understand that the amount is steep, so if you can’t donate, passing it along and spreading it around works just as well.

btw don’t ever allow yourself to think it’s a coincidence there are so few black users on tumblr or even that it’s some sort of cultural mismatch. it’s because black users were driven off the site by racist fanbases and staff witch hunts. don’t forget about how when ferguson started trending, the tag was purged of all posts and users were deleted, which staff then justified by calling them russian bots and foreign agitators

In 21st century America, there was a pervasive superstition that rats could force people to do their bidding simply by grabbing ahold of their hair. It was often common courtesy to remove your hat, either as a greeting or when entering another’s homes, to show them that you are not being possessed by a rat, and can be trusted to behave.
