If I was to do commissions on here again would that actually work? Or does anyone know of somewhere to post commissions other then here or Twitter?

henlo! Iām back from the dead with a commission from a fellow on Flight Rising! Commissioned to draw a lovely OC and their cat byĀ @apokalypse-arisen
I have $24 to last me til Friday, what should I buy with it?
a pallet of ramen noodles
I hate ramen noodles tho
hmmmmm bees?
Are you suggesting that I eat bees for a week
This is roughly what I make sure I have in my kitchen all the time along with rough estimates of local prices (MN). I buy a lot of things when theyāre on sale and stockpile them.Ā
instant oatmeal packets with fruit in them - $3 probably and this can be breakfast all week and maybe even a lunch or dinner too since you usually get 10 packets
bag of rice - $2-3 depending on size. 1 cup dry rice makes enough for about two meals depending on what you add in. if you get cheap rice, rinse it before cooking
canned beans - usually under $1 per can - mix the can with your rice and you have a meal. chili-spiced beans will make bean tacos. Rinse non-spiced beans before adding to anything.
Tortilla - usually around $3 but you get like 8-10 of them. Tacos, wraps, and quesadillas are all fair game here
lettuce - $2 max around here, either a head of something or bagged precut depending on preference, use as a salad or on tacos
protein other than beans of some sort - probably $5-7 for meat, $2-3 for eggs. sometimes I can get bags of frozen chicken breasts in this price range and each is usually 2 meals if I add in a bunch of veggies. fry/scramble eggs and add to any of the options.Ā
your favorite stir fry sauce - $3ish
vegetables - $5ish. literally anything that you can 1. fry in a pan and 2. youāll eat. fresh carrots are usually pretty cheap. get frozen if itās cheaper and youāre strapped for cash/prep time on this part.Ā
alternative to stir fry: Ā pasta (~$2), fresh tomatoes (~$2), cheese (~$3).Ā
cheese and fruit if you have extra - look if your store has loyalty cards for free that you can load coupons on for cheese thereās always one it seems like.
ahh thank you!!!
Reblogging because thereās never knowing whoāll need it.
Adding also: the single most nutritious food on earth is potatoes in their peel. Potatoes + some milk and butter = everything you need. They donāt last all that long, but theyāre fairly cheap and the quickest cheat to āHow do I not fuck my body up.ā
(Cooked potatoesāll last a while in the fridge. Potatoes nearing the end of their useful lives? Cook them to half-done first, figure out what to do with them later.)
Easiest baked potatoes: slice thinly but not paper-like, spread like cards, brush with oil (a silicone baking brush is totes worth the little it costs), spread salt and pepper (a little less than you think youād like), cover with foil, stick in oven or toaster-oven at 150C for 40min. (If you have the patience, at that point click up to 180C, remove the cover and add 10-20min.) Reheats well, lasts in the fridge longer than itāll take you to nom.
Dead-Animal-Free Whole Protein: some legumes + some grain. AKA rice and lentils, or rice and beans. (Maybe some fried onion for flavor; onionās cheap and stays good a descent while. Fried onion makes everything taste better and keeps forever in the freezer, so frying up a bunch and keeping portions is not a half-bad idea.) (If going for the beans option - lentils are cheaper around here but fuck if I know what itās like in your area - dump some tomato sauce and oil in; canola or soy are best health-wise, and far cheaper than olive; avoid corn.) Oh, what does instant couscous go for in your area? It keeps for fucking ever, itās usually cheap, and it takes well to any and all added taste.
If you get to choose, black lentils taste the best and need the least soak-time (0-20min), green lentils are best for cooked stuff and red lentils are best in soups. (Red lentils + potatoes + root vegetables of choice + spices; cut into small pieces, cook, run through the blender if you wanna [stick blenderās awesome], freeze in portions.)
When possible, get instant soup mix. Get the good instant soup mix. (The kind thatās not made primarily of sugar, yeast or both. The rest is optional.) Dump 1/2tsp (or more, but start on the low end) into couscous, or chicken, or sprinkle over potatoes being stuck in the oven. Whatever. Itāll make most cooked-food-type things taste better. And again, lasts forever on the shelf.
IfĀ you can have eggs (goodness knows theyāre sometimes expensive), dump some tomato sauce in a pan (tomato sauce lasts forever on the shelf), add some oil, onion/beans to cook in it, hot peppers if you wanna, then when itās nearly ready crack an egg or two in. Hard-boiled eggs last a remarkably while in the fridge, so when eggs reach near the end of their usable lives, just hard-boil and stick in the fridge. (Have eggs as often as you can, particularly as you have brain-shit going on. You need all the eggs, salt, and 60%-or-more chocolate you can get. Brains are made of cholesterol and salt, so folks with neuro or other brain shit need more of both. Potassium is also aces. You know what has the most potassium? Tomato paste.) Grated cheese keeps in the freezer for ever. Grated cheese will make a lot of things taste nicer. Preserved lemon juice keeps forever in the fridge. Grated cheese + oil + lemon = instant and awesome pasta sauce thatāll liven up the weeks-old dry pasta in the fridge. Slices bread also keeps well in the freezer. Try to have half a loaf or a loaf. Dry bread gets cut in cubes, mixed with oil and the aforementioned instant soup, stuck in oven at lowest until properly dry, then kept in an airtight jar to add to soups. (Over-ripe tomatoes come cheaper. They get turned into soup or sauce, then frozen in portions.)
this is a very good post but why are we glossing over the fact that the alternative to ramen is bees
i have it on pretty good authority that bees are notĀ an affordable eating alternative to ramen.
Seriously, bees are expensive
Trufax.Ā
And speaking as someone who is also living off oatmeal, beans, and brown rice, if you need recipes, I have them!Ā
Today I made 16 bean soup with chicken sausage and it was crazy good and I got 8 servings out of the one batch (froze half). I usually get the cheapest beans I can find, and GOYA bags of beans are usually $1-2. I soaked them overnight,rinsed them, and threw them in a gallon lidded saucepan with 2 boxes of chicken stock (also on sale for $2), two bay leaves, sauteed green pepper, onion, and celery, some garlic from a jar, about two tablespoons of dried herbs de provence,and theĀ āfancyā bit was adding $6 bourbon and apple chicken sausages. You can actually sub veg stock for chicken and skip the sausage and make it vegan and it would still taste great.
Oh and Iāve been doing steel-cut oats. I donāt buy the name brand ones, I just pick whatever store brand/generic I can get for less than $4. They take about ½ an hour to make, but theyāre super tasty and I make 2 cups of dried oats at a time with dried cranberries and thatās breakfast for 4 days at least.Ā
Iāve also been making black bean soup, red beans and rice, and curried potatoes and chick peas. I got 100 quart and pint take-away containers from Amazon for $20 and they all stack neatly and are perf for one serving of whatever.
Additionally, depending on where you live, whole rotisserie chickens are something like $4-$7 and are easily 4 - 6 servings of protein and on TOP of that, if you stick the carcass in a ziplock bag and then the freezer you have excellent soup makings. Using bones in soup literally squeezes all viable vitamins and minerals out of the suckers. Soup made from lots of bones is great to keep around if you get sick, itāll feed and sooth you relatively easily and as you get better you can add noodles. ON TOP OF THAT, a quarter to a half cup of soup broth added to a lot of dishes also adds those nutrients PLUS flavor.
Hereās my āHow to eat for a week on $30ā³ post.
donāt forget Good and Cheap: Eat Well on $4 A Day
Yall are clutch for this lmao cuz ima need this for about the first month after I move
Reblogging cause who knows what your followers are going through rn
hey
let kids have alicorn princess mlp ocs
let kids have rainbow-blood fantrolls
let kids have neon kawaii sparkledogs
let kids have emo edgelord creepypasta ocs
let kids have canon/oc ships
let kids express themselves
fuck your ālol cringe XDā mindset
ok i just wanted to add onto this post and say, when i was about 8 i drew with my mouse and i made edgy warriors ocs, i drew āgoreā which was just a cat bleeding from its eyes, i put unrealistic colors on cats blah blah.
people started finding my art and reposting it, to bad art blogs and forums. one of my friends said āi have bad news about your artā and linked me to a bad warriors art blog that had posted my drawing of scourge and i could see all the notes of people making fun of it.
i tried to brush it off, i asked for it to be removed, but it kept happening, and people started leaving comments on my deviations. they started adding my art to bad art folders on da. i was being harassed as a very young child.
at this point i had been drawing every single day, i spent hours drawing my bad warriors art. it was the thing i loved the most at the time. and now? i still draw everyday, but itās so, so hard for me to post or share it, and i went through a long period of time refusing to draw because i remembered all the things people said about my art.
it didnāt help me. it made me wanna improve my art sure, but on the level that now everything i draw looks bad to me, every idea i have seems cringy to me. iām terrified of people seeing my work because i am scared everyone will make fun of it again.
making fun of kids does have real consequences. not for you, of course, you get to laugh. but the kid doesnāt.
if ur gonna laaugh at that shit at least dont fuckin post it or share it around
I had a self insert fanfic when I was 12-13 ish. It was submitted to a blog on LJ that literally existed to make fun ofĀ āMary Sueā fics. My story was basically a stereotypical kidāsĀ āI wish I had a digimonā fic.
I got told the post was there, and got my whole gang of friends to go in there and rag on them for posting my work up just to rip into it. I wasnāt going to do anything but pout at first, but my ~17 year old friends were smart enough to go, hey, this isnāt cool, theyāre picking on you and youāre just a kid.
They eventually took it down, but it was under threat from them to report me on FFN for being underage.
For several years of my life, from about 15 on, I viewed my reaction as really cringy. I regretted laying into them because suddenly I realized how young and dumb Iād looked, how stupid my fic was, how awful I was for going in when they were just having fun, etc.
It wasnāt until a few months ago, when I first saw a post like this circulating Tumblr, that I finally stopped regretting it and viewed it as what it was: bullies picking on kids.
It doesnāt matter that their excuse wasĀ āWe didnāt know you were a kidā; even if I hadnāt been, itād be easy for a kid to see work that looked like theirs being insulted and decide itās not worth even trying.
Not to mention, I was 20 before I even tried to write something with original characters again (a single RPG Iād already started getting into nonwithstanding), and I still live in constant fear people will look at a character I make and goĀ āew, itās a self-insertā.
Just let people have their fun. Theyāre not hurting anyone by creating. Youāre no better than making of someone for not knowing how to ride a bike yet, whether theyāre 3 or 30.
Sean should totally hit me up for some runes for Marvin made of Deer antler. (humanely collected. The deer shed antler every year and I'm super careful about buying them.)
Just kidding. International laws are weird about antler (wood is a different story though)
This is the second set I've made, for my partner. My first set was a nice little commission I painted on Halloween :U for a close buddy of mine.
My new commission sheets are up and ready!
Just send me a DM if you wish to order or if you have any questions!
Hey so Iām down to $0.68 in checking. If you want to help a disabled artist, please reblog.
Yes, I do fanart. Yes, I do OC art. Yes, I do NSFW. Yes, I do OCXCanon art if you want that as well.
Iām sorry, Iām sorry I donāt want to ask people for money but I had to emergency move, and I have to wait a while for me to get a job and Iām in debt real bad with bills coming up. Iām completely freaking out having to start a gofundme. It would really help if you guys spread this around, or donated.Ā

This is just gaddamn amazing
What is gaddamn amazing is that by clicking on that rather messy link and going thru 2 redirects, you land at an Etsy listing where you can buy this sucker for $22.
So fuckin GO.

I donāt really know what people generally call this method of sigil making, so Iām just calling it āLetter Shapingā because youāre using the basic shapes from certain letters. This is the most common form of sigil making, and it allows the most creative influence. As you see above the sigils are for nearly the same thing, yet the sigils came out completely different. Not because the purpose was different, but because I approached them both a different creativeĀ way, and thatās what I like so much about this method. Thereās a lot of freedom and personalization involved.
(UPDATE: Hereās a link to a guide on how to deconstruct letters down to basic shapes)

Sly 4 had such a cliff hanger.
I liked this post, scrolled for like another minute before I went āSHIT FUCK SHITā and scrolled back to reblog it
imma be real here
piranha plant is legitimately a better addition to smash than fire-fighting starter pokemon #48320
i have just been informed that incineroar, the fucking pokemon thats based on wrestlers, knows a bunch of wrestling and fighting attacks, looks like this
and is constantly seen in wrestling ring
is not fire-fighting, but fire-dark
hes dark type because hes a heel
a what
in professional wrestling a heel is a wrestler acting as the villain, being rude and underhanded
in fact incineroar is called the Heel Pokemon
badguy wrestler
think more Stone Cold or Brock Lesnar rather than John Cena
Heās meant to draw the ire of the audience
If he isnāt getting under your skin heās doing a bad job
Dark is Evil in Japan, therefore he is a Fire Evil type.
Also you could go further into wrestling terminalogy and say that the heel usually gets the heat of the babyface and then the babyface makes a comeback.
Heās the big heel of the pokemon universe, and heās based off of one the most popular Japanese Junior heavyweights of all timeās arch rival the Black Tiger.
this is so dumb hes still based on wrestlers
wrestling is very much not fighting tho
If you wanna go really meta, the whole pokemon community was so done with fire/fighting types, especially after getting a break in the form of Braixen, that seeing Incineroar made everybody go apeshit And then he was revealed to be a dark type instead of fighting He was designed to make you mad from day 1
In other words, heās a heel in a meta sense as well.
Good to know my boy Incineroar is still working jabroni marks into shoots three years after his debut. I donāt think anyoneās held this much heat in a long time.Ā
Loving this window film!
