Hello there! I just wanted to state that commissions are open for anyone who is interested. They pretty much always are, but now is currently sort of an emergency, and everything will be PWYW (via the donation option) besides character sheets and reference sheets. The reasons will be below the cut for anyone who wants to read them. https://ko-fi.com/ethanhellghast/shop https://ko-fi.com/ethanhellghast
Before I start, I would like to state that my PayPal is currently out of service at the moment, but there is other secure means of payment there. Last year my PayPal was set up as a backup payment selection for something and when it came out it put me ~-$3 on there. I paid the balance but it still says I owe money. When I try to pay that money, it says I don't owe anything and therefore won't let me pay. I've contacted support on multiple occasions, even providing screenshots and bank statements as proof and they keep saying they'll get back to me, but never do. If you're still interested, knowing that you can't send the money to PayPal, here's what's going on-
Currently, I am unemployed. Why? I was fired. Why was I fired, you may ask? You're going to love this..
At first, I was pulled aside and asked where I saw myself in the company in the next year. I answered truthfully: "I'm not sure". You know, like most people would if they grew up constantly moving from place to place and never had proper stability at home or with schools and friends growing up.
I was told at first that that was the reason, and that everyone else that was asked knew where they wanted to be. I was fired. A few days later, my one old manager messages me on Facebook. Turns out, it's A LOT more serious than that. Nothing I myself did, no, but rather I and a few other people were wrongfully terminated. In the group chat the higher-ups had they were saying some shit they really shouldn't have been about employees. They preach openness and acceptance, and then turn around and talk shit about employees disabilities, sexual orientation, and gender identities.
I was one of those people. I am physically disabled. I have a heart condition, fucked lungs, HEDS, and multiple fucky allergies because of it. I am intersex and look it. I identify as Trans-masc nonbinary. They made fun of my appearance, called me lazy because I can't physically do as much as other people (yes, they were made aware of my disabilities before I was hired) and refused to do work off the clock because that's illegal, constantly misgendered me, made fun of the fact that I have facial hair when I was AFAB, etc. They aren't good people, and my old manager stepped up and called them out for the way they treat people, leading to him also getting fired. Another manager did the same, and also got fired.
I'm trying real hard to find a job and I'm fighting with the unemployment office at the moment, but I've not had much luck with either. Even if you can't commission me yourself, shares are greatly appreciated. I need to get basic toiletries and get my cat to the vet for his yearly shots and I'm so behind on rent it's not even funny. My only saving grace in that part is that I'm renting a room from my father who knows the situation.
