DEEP BREATH
SO
I had some massive unexpected bills this month and am basically broke.
THUS
I am once again advertising my commissions page. This time, though, I'm offering a 50% discount on all my items.
Check the link here: https://ko-fi.com/elkaby/link/FLATBROKE
(or just go to the link up yonder and use discount code FLATBROKE)
(First time I'm doing this and may be the last depending on how this goes. :) We'll see.)
Important Note: Add-ons remain the same price. It's just the base price that's discounted.
Quick(ish) summary of what I'm offering:
6x6 inch Full Color Illustration - £200 ($271) now £100 ($136)
6x6 inch Greyscale/B&W Illustration - £150 ($203) now £75 ($102)
I am also offering bust portraits and icons!
Full Color Bust Portrait - £50 ($68) now £25 ($34)
(Squishified) Full Color Icons/PFPs - £20 ($27) now £10 ($14)
Right, is that all? Yeah, I think so.
Commission me if you can/want to!
it's always a good time to order art from me but rn is especially appreciated! I am 200$ short on last months rent (that i withdrew all my savings to try and cover), a $365 charge is about to hit my account that doesn't have enough in it to cover it, and I do still have the $275 bill from my ill-advised attempt at seeking healthcare on my tab, all this on top of this month's rent which will be another $750 i'm never sure I'll have! i usually barely make enough to cover it with nothing leftover for savings so i genuinely dont know how i'm gonna survive this month, lowkey freaking out a little bit but trying to stay positive! thank you for anything and everything!
if you dont want any art, please keep my comms in mind if any of your friends/family do!
Hi all. Yesterday I had to make an emergency vet visit that ended with my axolotl being put down. I don't want to share details at the moment, but I loved her very much, and as difficult as it was, euthanizing her was the kindest thing I could do.
I'm trying to pay off the $1100 bill as quickly as I can, and I would greatly appreciate any commissions that come my way. I've discounted my commissions for the time being. If you can't afford it at the moment, that's ok, all I ask is that you share this post around.
Commissions Open! Click to see Yomi's commission menu.
Hi, so I have been without income since early february, today, after waiting three weeks, my file finally got updated: there was a missing document, this document has been added to my file, and my file was resubmitted, this means i have to wait another three weeks, and I've gone through all my savings at this point, I do not have enough money to cover another three weeks + the wait until I actually get paid.
All this to say, please consider taking a look at my offered commissions, for those following me for DA content, I offer the YCH Emmrich kiss, or alternatively, I offer flowery pet portraits at a lower price. If something is still too much for you but you’d really like to get something/help out, please don’t hesitate to reach out, I’m sure we can work something out.

On March 20, 2026, my mother finally returned home after spending nine months in the hospital.
Unfortunately, during these months we faced many expenses and had no source of income, as we were forced to close our family business because we could no longer afford to keep it running.
My mother receives only a few hundred euros in disability benefits, and I am unable to work because I need to care for her around the clock.
Therefore, I kindly ask for your help and support. Even just one euro can make a difference.
Help a queer, fat, & neurodivergent teacher commute to work in a rural red town!
Hi, everyone! It’s rare that I come to you with my own fundraisers, but I am organizing this fundraiser on behalf of my amazing partner and fellow fat liberationist, Steve.
On Nov. 8th, Steve was involved in an accident that rendered his car unusable. The perpetrator who ran Steve off of the highway and into the wall fled the scene and remains unidentified. As a substitute teacher who relies on his car to commute to work and his college classes every day, this is a critical loss for Steve. Without his car, he is extremely limited within his small town in WI where public transportation is unavailable. Steve has been the most loving and supportive person in my life, and I can’t stand to see him in a place like this. If you are feeling resourced, Please help me raise funds to help my partner get a new vehicle as soon as possible! Any amount helps!
thank you to everyone who has shared and donated! my partner and I couldn’t thank you enough! let’s keep this in circulation so he doesn’t have to miss more work!
I am unemployed and my partner is a full time student and a part time substitute teacher, and does not have the income to afford a car payment. he is struggling with living costs as it is. every dollar you donate is one less dollar of debt we need to take on to afford this sudden expense.
to everyone who has given & shared, thank you for uplifting and supporting your community members. 🫂
Trapped Family in Gaza Appeals for Help to Survive
A Plea for Help from Gaza: A Family Seeking Safety
Hello, I am Mohammed Alanqer, married to Enas Majed, and we have four wonderful children.
We live in the midst of the ongoing hellish war in Gaza, trapped between walls of fear and despair. I, Mohammed, am a father of four children and a husband to a woman who was two months pregnant when the war began.
The story will be in three languages: English, French and Arabic
… Abdallah Alanqar needs your support for Trapped Family in Gaza Appeals f
We struggle daily to survive in an environment filled with threats and dangers.
I lost our sole source of livelihood when my tech startup, which I built with dedication and hard work, was destroyed in the war. My children, Layan, Sarah, and Adam, have been deprived of education after their schools were destroyed, severely threatening their future. Amidst these harsh circumstances, my wife gave birth to our fourth child, Amir, in the midst of the war, adding to our state of despair and hopelessness.
My wife, Enas, lives in constant anxiety due to the destruction of hospitals in our area. I have lost my job and source of income, leaving me unable to provide for my family's needs and safety. Our home was destroyed by the war, forcing us to flee repeatedly and rendering us homeless.
We now face extreme difficulty in providing a safe place to live, clean clothes, and food for our children. Additionally, our children have contracted diseases like measles, and our son Adam has been diagnosed with viral hepatitis.
Our only hope now is to escape this ongoing nightmare and find a safe haven for our family. However, this requires exorbitant financial costs; the coordination fees for crossing the borders amount to $5000 per adult and $2500 per child, a sum I cannot afford alone.
We urgently appeal for your moral and financial assistance to cover the necessary costs for escaping to a safe environment, where we can build a better future for our children and ensure our family's safety.
We are in desperate need of your support. Any donation, no matter how small, can help save our lives. Thank you for your attention and support during these harsh times.

Dear Campaign Verification Team at Tumblr,
I extend my heartfelt gratitude for your assistance in bringing back my voice and my family's voice to life once again. Following the deactivation of my old account, I am eager to revive our campaign with its inspiring humanitarian message.
You are more than just a team; you are reliable friends in challenging times. I am grateful for your swift response and ongoing support. I look forward to working with you again to repost the message and reach as many people as possible.
Thanks to your efforts, together we can create new opportunities and spread goodness in the community. I am confident that your continued engagement will help us achieve this common goal.
Thank you once again for all your efforts and unwavering support
I wanted to share some sad news with you: my old Tumblr account was deactivated without my knowledge. I had wonderful memories and meaningful interactions with you all, and I found the Tumblr community to be the most cooperative and helpful.🥺🥹
I am very happy to be here again, and I hope you can help me in reposting the post I was working on. This post is not just words, but a part of a fundraising campaign aimed at saving my family and supporting them in these difficult times.
I hope, as I always knew you, that you will extend a helping hand and assist in spreading this message to reach as many people as possible.
Not something I ever wanted to do...
My mom (62) recently got diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. I'm trying to raise funds to cover her bills so she can spend more time with my dad (69) instead of him having to work his construction job while she's sick.
The GoFundMe is here.
Literally anything helps. I'm not in a position to help them myself, since I recently lost my day job, but if anyone would like to commission me for some art, I will gladly work for donations.
Thank you for reading.
Because I know tumblr is very full of scams, I'd like to add that Lee is my 100% real human friend from college whom I've known for years and whose parents I've met once or twice, and is also the same Lee who does those embroidered dinosaur patches.
I don't seem to have any recent photos, since we live in different cities, but here's both of us in the glove sewing video this past winter.
My name is Ashraf Alanqar, and I am 30 years old. My wife, Widad Issa, and I have a one-and-a-half-year-old son named Bakr. We used to live peacefully in the Al-Shuja’iya neighborhood, in a house we built just a week before the war began. I worked as a farmer and owned a large chicken farm that provided for my family.
Beloved of my heart (Bakr)
Then the war came and destroyed everything. Our home was reduced to ashes, and our chicken farm was obliterated. We lost our home, our livelihood, and even our basic rights. We've been forced to move from place to place in northern Gaza, simply trying to survive.
My House before...
Me.. while trying to recognize what has happened..
The terror we feel as we flee from heavy bombardment is unbearable. The sound of explosions around us, the constant fear as we navigate through the rubble of destroyed homes searching for safety and food, haunts us every day. My son Bakr is constantly scared and suffers from severe malnutrition and skin diseases due to the lack of food, water, and sanitation.
Our beautiful memories.. :(
We urgently need your help. I am asking for your support to fund this campaign to move my family to a safe place, provide us with a proper home, and ensure we have enough food, water, and medical care.
Baker used to play with his dog.
Your donation, no matter how small, can make a significant difference in our lives. We desperately need your support and solidarity during this difficult time. Together, we can restore hope and safety to Ashraf and his family.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for considering my plea. Your support means more than words can express. Together, we can turn a story of loss into a journey of hope and resilience.

hey… so i spent my last $28 on food and medication til i get paid next (which my paycheck this week will be $68 cause i work 4 hour days 3 days a week due to long covid and was sick one day last week)
if anyone could help out with even just a couple bucks just so i don’t overdraw it’d mean so much.
paypal: @milesanw
venmo: @justmileshere
if anyone has something they’d like giffed i can do that for you if you do help me out (i don’t expect to be paid for requests in general but if ppl can and decide to help and do want something i’d be happy to)
my debit card didnt go through so i had to call my bank to get my spending limit raised and i told them what i needed it raised to and the customer service rep on the other end paused and told me, in a very concerned voice, how much money was in my account
Some of you have offered to send donations to support PS5 and I can't say enough how much I appreciate that.
For those of you who don't know her, this is PS5, the best and most important puppy of all time. If she could meet you, she would wiggle her entire potato-shaped body at you and try to lick you with her tiny baby tongue. She's three months old and her favorite things in the world are looking at cats and falling asleep.
Unfortunately, PS5 broke her leg in a freak accident this past Thursday. Earlier today (3/29/2022), she underwent surgery to repair her leg, and will be staying at the hospital overnight tonight.
I emptied my bank account this morning to pay the required deposit for the procedure. Between last week's emergency vet visit and the cost of her surgery, we're going to end up paying at least $6000 in vet bills.
If you've enjoyed my past Tumblr Funnyman Posts about:
Meatball the cat (who wore Hanukkah sweaters and sweatervests, and once tried to jump in my toilet)
that one video of the bird dancing to Hotline Bling
my girlfriend asking me what I thought about pet names and I said you have to call them something and then someone called my girlfriend a moronsexual
the pregnant dog who contains multitudes
realizing that little girls with good handwriting were a different genre of person than you
or my significantly less funny posts about antisemitism and Jewishness, and you would like to leave a tip on our Ko-Fi, we would really appreciate it. If you're unwilling or unable, we would really appreciate a reblog.
I can't draw or write particularly well, I'm not especially creative, I can't offer commissions or handmade crafts in exchange for donations. The only thing I'm particularly good at, unfortunately, is making Tumblr posts, which is not a very marketable skill.
The only thing I can think to offer is this: for years, people have been asking me to post pictures of Meatball in his sweatervest and his Hanukkah sweater.
If we can reach $500 in donations, I will post a picture of Meatball wearing his sweatervest on the original sweatervest post.
If we can reach $1000, I will post a picture of Meatball in his Hanukkah sweater on the original Hanukkah sweater post.
And if we can reach $2000, I will post a video of Meatball doing a very cool trick (high fiving a person) while wearing his sweatervest.
If there's anything else that would incentivize you to make a donation, please reach out to me and I'll do my best.
I'm sorry if this seems slightly lame. I just want our puppy to be OK.
Started a new bag, because of course I did. Persona 5 is still going strong for 2(?) years now! Futaba and Yusuke are over-represented because I know what I'm about.
Also updated my Yuri-only collection to a new, smaller bag with no glitter. My older bags with glitter are becoming my least favorites, except for Pacific Rim. I'll probably never re-home that one.
we are multiply disabled and not receiving medical support.
absolutely losing our minds and also out of meds.
unable to get to the fucking doctor for help because our car is fucking broken and we live two hours away because we live in the fuckin sticks because this damn garage is the only free housing available to us and we have no money and are incapable of working enough to live. y’know, due to aforementioned disabilities.
that last bullet was a lot but hopefully you get my point.
please help. we are fucking drowning. we have so many needs going unmet. but right now we need meds and my partner needs to see a fucking doctor.
also my teeth are still rotting out and it’s bad enough at this point that I literally cannot brush my teeth without severe pain. which means I am not brushing my teeth. which cannot possibly be helping.
woke up having a panic attack about it this morning (again) lol anyway pls help
This is one of my extended family members that I have been staying with for a few months have been texting me that I’m confirmed kicked out because my views are too “liberal” and disrespectful because they found my social media and this caused tensions so they kicked me outs they’re very conservative etc we are Mexican btw!! So I’m wiping clean of this dude if the family and I need help! Thank you for everyone who reblogged etc!
I have been dealing with emotion, verbal etc abuse by living with them and I need to get to leave ASAP for my mental and physical health and I want to take my dog with me! Doing another post sorry because last one lost traffic. I have until feb 4th to pay for the rest of my deposit so I can move and not end up homeless!! Thank you!!
