This is goodbye 🖤
hey, everyone
My name is Mariana and for 11 years I've been making fantasy creatures by hand with polymer clay.
This little business has been my lifeline, but with the new US tariffs, shipping my work to my largest audience will become almost impossible after August 29th. The US has always been my main market. Losing it means losing the majority of my income overnight.
I’m an immigrant and refugee, rebuilding my life in Spain after fleeing Venezuela. I live with chronic pain, which makes finding a traditional job difficult. Art has been my everything and I don't want to give up just because of president Trump's ideas.
But I need time and support to survive while I pivot my work toward digital content, physical patreon rewards, and marketing to other countries, or if none of this works out, a traditional job I'm able to do.
So I'm launching a Ko-fi campaign to help me get through these next few months.
These are the rewards if you're able to donate more!
🩷 $10+: A digital art goodie
🩷 $50+: One of my clay kittens
🩷 $500+: One of my handmade dragons
All donations, even $2: an entry for a Halloween giveaway to be held in October. This is the link!
sharing this helps more than you know!!! I understand most of us are in difficult positions right now.
Thank you for helping me keep my little dragons and unicorns alive. I've fought so hard to be able to do something so simple, I can't help but laugh at the absurdity of it all sometimes.
Thank you for reading! ( ◜‿◝ )♡

genuinely sorry that it's come to this, but i've been getting texts from my landlord and i don't have a way to get the $500 i need that doesn't involve piling on more work than i already currently have on my plate. chip in if you're able to, and if you can't, please spread this around

a feel like the new generation of fanfic readers NEED to understand that clicking on a fic (interaction) does nothing. ao3 has no algorithm. your private discord discussions of fic do not reach the authors. if you do not actively engage with writers they will stop posting. this isn’t social media this is community.

A 14 year old girl flushing her miscarriage down the toilet can be charged with mutilating a corpse, but keeping a dead woman on life support for 120 days then cutting her open to extract a 2 pound fetus because her dead body was decaying too fast to sustain the pregnancy any longer is not only legal but compelled by law. America/the world/men hate women so much.

Liking a character who sucks is silly because yeah I hate him and yeah I want people to bully him and say mean things but if you say the Wrong mean thing I'm going to get defensive

Trump appears to have made the military decision without consulting Congress, which (under Article I of the Constitution) has warmaking powers.

My favorite thing about Medic is the fact that he physically looks like he’d be a really big threat all by himself, but in reality he’s a huge weenie who needs the entire team to protect his dumb ass. I bet he trips over his shoelaces most of the time.
