So due to some horrible circumstances with my shit family that I had to move back with, I have depleted both my saved taxed refund that was supposed to be my moving money and my 401k to pay bills for my parents. We have already had the gas shut off so it’s been a month without hot water. 

Until the end of this month when I get paid I will have only $50 to my name for food and transport to and from work. This is just for me, this is not including my kids that are going to be back at my parents’ mid month.

I will write short fics or drabbles for money right now. I need money to move out but right now I’m more concerned with eating and transport. Herei s a link to my ko-fi I am trying to move to income based housing but I don’t have anything saved up for that either.

If you can’t donate, no problem, just reblog.

Ok status update urgent, my mom decided to purposely wait last minute to pay bills so now power is being shut off tomorrow unless we fork over $600 now. This is great an all since she just got into an accident today and now will take my car and I have to wake up super early to take a bus to work except now I have no alarm bc my power is being shut off. Since the electric company is closed now i can’t call to make any arrangements. After this I’m moving back with my ex. I can’t survive like this so I’M BEGGING, literally in hysterics right now, if anyone can commission me right now I’ll do them at work or at the library after work. I just need assistance immediately. My mom basically had me on the verge of suicide while I was at work. I’m a month or maybe two max, shy of being homeless so right now any money will help. All the money I had left is now bus fare. If power gets shut off i have no way to make food for my son or even bathe him tomorrow. 

Please help my friend in any way you can! She's in desperate need of assistance.

Top Surgery

Kelpie’s starting to plan for top surgery! My home situation is bad, I don’t have great insurance, and I’m basically on my own for this. As of today (6/24/18) it’s looking like I’ll have about a year to wait for a surgeon, so I have a bit of time to earn the money for my surgery. But it’s a lot of money and I don’t currently have a job. My insurance is saying I’ll likely owe somewhere around $10k when all is said and done for the procedure, medications, dressings, anesthesia, travel expenses, etc.

I’ve started a gofundme because apparently youcaring has been bought out. :(

I’ll reblog this post to keep you all updated to my situation. I’ll be seeing the endocrinologist this week and discussing starting T!

“I can’t be vegan, I love cheese”

Dairy industry is as evil as meat. No less harm for animals. Does it look natural that calf can’t drink milk so you can taste your piece of cheese? 

GO VEGAN. 

WRONG

That calf is wearing a nose tag. Nose tags are put on calves so that they are able to stay with their mothers longer, but are unable to nurse. They don’t NEED to nurse as they get older, they just get greedier and pushier and will bash up the cow’s udder and bruise it with their noses.

This nose-tag is so that calves can stay with their mothers, their mothers can remain pain-free and healthy, and nobody is stressed.

Educate yourselves you ignorant fucking tarts.

…really? You don’t think it might have anything to do with the milk being stolen for human consumption? At all? Not even a tiny bit?

Militant vegans can fuck right off

Based on fur texture and face shape, that calf is at least six months old, probably older.  Calves can survive without actual cow milk even at three months, though older is better (calves weaned that early are usually fed a sort of formula for another couple months).

Also, nose tags like that one don’t go through the cow’s septum.  They basically work like those fake septum rings for humans.

In addition to weaning the calves, another use for nose tags is protecting non-lactating cows.  Sometimes weanlings or even adult cows will suck on themselves or other non-lactating cows; this can cause internal teat scarring bad enough to prevent that teat or teats from ever working.  I’ve seen this happen, and it’s ugly, probably at least somewhat painful, and, if bad enough, would lead to the cow being slaughtered at a very young age because she can’t produce milk, has chronic mastitis, and/or can’t be milked with automatic milking equipment.  So, nose tags actually prevent animal cruelty.

Also, calves will suck on anything remotely oblong (and attempt to eat literally anything), even if they are being adequately fed or overfed.  Often they will suck on other calves’ ears, and, since ears are longer than teats and cows have upper as well as lower teeth in the back of their mouths, many calves get bites on their ears, which often become severely infected.  I’m not sure if nose tags would work there, because physics—a non-toxic but bad-tasting ear paint would be better—but yeah, letting a calf put anything it wants in its mouth is not always a good idea.

reblogging for educational purposes.

reblogging for people being schooled

This was the funniest argument about false cruelty I have read.. Thank you. 

I love this for 2 reasons: Most people don’t realize that in farming areas agriculture/horticulture/animal husbandry is part of public school education from as early on as 7th grade. (Though I remember dissecting cow eyes in 4th grade science sooo) I assure you fifteen year old farm kids know more about what constitutes animal cruelty in farms than thirty year old vegans with, or without an agenda. 

Also that if you really want good quality beef/pork/eggs/milk/etc you don’t abuse your animals. Ever. That’s not the point and if you want to make any kind of money off your career choice, you are going to treat those creatures better than you treat yourself. You’ll call a vet five times for an infection in your herd before you visit the hospital for a missing foot on your own leg. 

So. Yeah. Watch out, because we’re getting internet access these days. We’re on tumblr too. 

P.S. The immigrant workers farming your supermarket produce have no health care or legal protection, and the Bolivians farming your 365 Organic Quinoa can’t afford to eat it. But PLEASE won’t someone think of the poor baby cows who won’t get off the tit?!

Also this is a LOT nicer than what mother cows do to calves that won’t be weaned. You know what mother cows do to calves that won’t wean? kick them in the head. Now I don’t know about vegans, but I’d rather have a nose tag that discouraged me from injuring my mother (because calves that don’t wean tend to chew on udders and make mother cows bleed) rather than being kicked in the head. Source: I grew up on a fucking cattle ranch. I have seen chickens skeletonize a mouse I KNOW SHIT.

“I have seen chickens skeletonize a mouse I KNOW SHIT.”

I’m sorry, what? What??? WHAT??? you can’t just leave it there please explain @thehornedwitch

Happy to explain! See, chickens are omnivorous. They eat bugs, plants, and meatstuffs. Y'know how crows and ravens and things eat meat? Well, chickens too. Ours had a particular fondness for ham when someone accidentally put it into the bucket of good scraps we set aside for the chickens. A bucket we tried to keep as meat-free as possible, because few things are more terrifying than a chicken looking you in the eyes as it scarfs down ham. Anyway, back to the mouse. One day i was doing Chicken Chores, like gathering eggs, putting out grain, emptying the bucket of greens, etc, when a mouse runs across the pen. All at once, eight or so chickens stop dead, look at it, and SWARM. Now I’m six at this point in time and developing a healthy fear of chickens, and so do nothing. By the time the chickens are done, all that is left of the mouse is its bones. I left the chicken pen very, very quickly. Chickens crave meat. They were dinosaurs. They did not forget that they were dinosaurs. They will also cannibalize each other with reckless abandon. Sometimes we just had to remove one chicken to its own private pen away from the others because no matter what we did, that specific one always tried to eat the other chickens. We had one that really liked other chicken’s eyes. Bear in mind, our pens ensured each chicken had about five to six square feet all its own if you managed to space every chicken out evenly, we never locked them in teensy pen things, and fed them LOTS. These chickens just really, really wanted to maim. Chickens that are not Buff Orpingtons are the devil. Buff Orpingtons are sweethearts. If you must have chickens, have that kind. And never get Guineas. Guineas are SATAN INCARNATE. THEY SMELL FEAR.

Holy shit, I dont think I’ll ever use chicken as an insult again. 

Holy Shit, same here that is terrifying

Will I’m using it as a compliment

I love farm animals.

“Chickens crave meat. They were dinosaurs. They did not forget that they were dinosaurs.”

If you’ve ever looked a chicken in the eye you know that they don’t just remember; they’re patiently awaiting the day they become dinosaurs again. 

@kedreeva

I have reblogged this before because watching farmers school vegans is always hilarious, but now we’re into birds, specifically fowl, and I have got stories.

I had to give my turkey an antibiotic injection once upon a time, and she turned the needle puncture into a six inch by three inch hole in her back overnight as she attempted to eat herself because apparently turkeys find themselves to be delicious. She had to spend 3 months duct taped into a tea towel (the bandages underneath cleaned and replaced daily, mind you) until it healed because she would not stop ripping the bandages off to continue consuming herself.

Your chickens strip a mouse to the bone? Mine draw and quarter them and run around with the parts shrieking. My peacocks grab mice, beat them to death on the ground with this insanely fast back and forth head twisting motion, and then swallow them whole. You would not think an entire adult mouse would fit in their face, and you would be wrong.

I knew a guy that used to regularly post photos of the 5-6′ long Copperhead snakes his peafowl would destroy. And I don’t mean kill, I mean destroy. These venomous snakes would get into the pens and the peas would just peck them into oblivion like nbd.

Fowl didn’t just used to be dinosaurs. They are still dinosaurs.

Thankfully they are small dinosaurs

and we can just tape them into tea towels if we have to

BEGGING for a Jurassic Park reboot where farmers run the place instead of brogrammer scientists, and the raptors frequently get scolded and taped into tea towels

Okay so honesty time I may be a vegetarian but it’s not because I give two shits about cows to be honest but THAT STUFF ABOUT THE BIRDS IS INCREDIBLE! Please folks if you started to scroll past this like I did STOP AND SCROLL BACK UP TO READ ABOUT THE MURDERBIRDS.

Even our little animals are terrifying and dangerous…

We live on a death world, and that is probably why aliens are afraid to make contact.

I didn’t even grow up on a farm, although I do have a fair amount of experience with animals.  I have been riding horses since I was nine years old and have one of my own, and I also helped take care of my neighbours chickens before she saw all the scars I was getting on my legs and decided the fresh eggs weren’t worth the disfigurement of her favourite adopted neice.  Anyway, I had to go into this pen with a fucking RAKE and wave it at them so I could reach the food and water bowls to fill them.  The rooster would ‘spur’ me (slice me open with a claw) whenever he had the chance.  And even though I WOULD BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF THIS TINY MONSTER DINO-FOWL EVERY TIME, HE WOULD DO IT AGAIN WHENEVER HE GOT THE CHANCE!  I have some pretty boss scars on my legs and behind one knee from that bastard.  I will eat chicken out of spite now even if I’m not craving it, thinking of that monster the whole time.

As someone who grew up on a farm, this post is absolutely everything.

Reblogging for insane stories and the line, “I eat chicken out of spite now.”

RPG idea: instead of normal minions or a en evil castle, just get massive fowl coops and a farm. Watch the heroes get turned into laughing shreds à la Monty python bunny style.

It’s finally finished! I’ve been working on this for a week and I’ve loved every second of it. I needed a good excuse to really get the hang of Clip Studio Paint and I wanted to make a big background-heavy piece again. This setting worked perfectly for that.

I recently saw this video by @hewhois and I got instantly inspired. It made me want to draw a modern male witch in his private den. I loved the peace and comfort that the video emitted and I did my very best to create a similar feeling. It’s so difficult to capture a very specific mood, but I hope I succeeded!

GUYS DMMD IS GETTING AN OFFICIAL ENGLISH PATCH Even tho we had the English translation since 2013 this time the game won’t be bitchy to download and no grammatical murder

Just a PSA: Listen, if you are below 18 years old, do not and I mean do not go into a space that only allows for people of the ages 18+ DMMD (Dramatical Murder) is not for children and will never be for children. So stop making a fuss over something that was never intended for you
