Come watch this derpy kitty bang their head against a wall!
I'm also 13 followers away from being able to provide amazing derpkitty emotes to all.

Plus, I raid a random friend/user I know in some sense after every stream--who knows, you might find your new favorite streamer!

Some might be aware, looking into my gallery that there's a lack of pony related things;

Just, in all, I got sick of it. I've not watched the show since Starlight was introduced as a main character, whatever season that was. Maybe it was depression hitting at that time, maybe I just didn't like that direction of the show.
I'm tired of dealing with 'bronies' who think Love and Tolerance means I should give out free art to them cause it's the nice thing to do, and then be harassed with people making alternate accounts to subvert a ban when I tell them no five times. Got tired with people in the fandom in general. Some still even hounded me at the start of this year after not talking with them for like, 6 years or something? Some stupid grudges are held for too long for me to care about candy colored horses actively.

I'm sick of my art being stolen to promote chinese bootleg bullshit, and even having those knockoffs featured on prominent pony sites like EQD with no link to my shit. Tired of being told at least bi-monthly that my stuff was found somewhere without my permission. I minded, yes, when my art was used without permission but I got to see a lot of people, especially with that "EQG Cafeteria Background" one I did be used to show off some neat OCs. They were the good ones.

The bad ones were those that copied my poses, or traced my stuff and used them for point adopts, or in commissions. No, your first time using MS paint skills weren't enough to hide the fact you copypasted a pony and made it cyan.
I even had some of my work taken by big names in this fandom, but oops I guess since you made Luna smile or duplicated one of Sunset's legs I wouldn't be able to tell that was mine, hope that pony website loved using stolen art as their banner and the money you probably got paid for it. 


So in the end, I'm jaded. This was once a fun part of my life, I sang the songs, I did art. I did pretty well with crystal ponies and still to this day got compliments on them. I took pride that if you googled, "Crystal [Pony]", one of my vectors was one of the first google image results.
But that just in the end, made it easier to steal. Fuck me for believing in people being good 100% of the time.


If you want pony art, I'll gladly take the commission. I love bringing people's characters to life, and making that twinkle in their eye, or making the wings plumage angle just so. To have horns sparkle with magic or just to make them smile, so it reflects the smile the commissioner has when they see their work in full color.

I just don't feel a desire to do it anymore otherwise.

Still not any better. If anything it’s worse.


Mom needs hernia surgery. Like, “She has organs behind her heart and in the wrong place because of a hiatal hernia” surgery.
We will not get an extension on our rent, so even though the real estate person in charge to our knowledge has received no bids or anything, we cannot stay here. Rent for a storage unit will be expensive.
There were ideas floating of one living situation we might be able to try, but that involves going to a family that verbally and emotionally abused us, did not allow us access to the internet, and for me, personally, felt they were going to threaten us with lethal means because of their dislike of us. I don’t want to go back there. I worry for my life, my family’s life, my dog’s life, if we go back there. A roof is not worth it.

Applied to a lot of jobs. Still haven’t gotten any.
The heat in the desert can be abysmal and it will be a drain on gas money if living in a car, because of the air conditioning.

California is expensive and it’s getting more dire and hard to find an affordable place.

Commissions are still open.

So, the owner of the place we've been renting has decided to sell it. We can't afford the new renting price, so within 60 days I probably will need to find a new place to live. Security deposits and shit are expensive.

Pricing: Your commission can be anywhere from just a sketch to a full on shaded piece.

I can do humans, 
Humanoids
Animals
Fantasy.
Some NSFW,
You like blue? I got you blue.
