I don't have very many followers but, hear me out guys.
My father claims that tumblr and facebook and internet friends aren’t real friends. He’s said that by the end of the week, sarcastically, if I hit at least 1,000 reblogs/likes from ‘these internet friends’ he’ll let me keep my tumblr and facebook. I don’t have many friends out in the real world, and these guys on facebook is the only good thing in my life.
I’m not popular, but please. Help. I don’t want to leave.
If this post got 100,000 people to donate a dime, just ten cents, I could afford my surgery.
I don’t ask for help very often, but I am now. I have 60 days to raise 10,000 dollars for surgery, and I can’t do it myself. Nearly every dime I make at work goes to taking care of my wife and the bills, and I find I have more month at the end of my money. I don’t expect something for free of course, so I’m giving what incentives I can for donating.
If you donate 10 cents -one dime- I will write a haiku about your tumblr. Think I won’t write 100,000 haikus? I absolutely will.
$1 donation will get a tarot or rune reading from me, you pick. I’ll even do a follow up reading for you within 90 days. And you’ll get a haiku.
$5 donation will get tarot/rune reading for you and five of your friends. Including follow ups. I am totally prepared to do 10,000 readings. All six of you get haikus.
$10 donation gets a lovely drawing of your choice from my wonderful wife bellsandbones.tumblr.com. Plus the $5 donation package.
$20 and I will mail you a glossy print of your drawing signed by Emily and you get the $5 donation package.
Any higher than that and I will make something up on the spot + $20 donation tier asdfghjkl
I’ve seen tumblr help get fluffy chickens and disneyworld trips. This surgery could very well save my life and it will certainly save my sanity. Even a signal boost will earn my undying gratitude. I didn’t set up a kickstarter or a fundme page because I want people to be able to donate pocket change if they wish, and these sites have a $1 minimum donation usually. Like I said, 100,000 dimes will do it.
My PayPal address is ofearthandsky(at)ymail.com
Thank you for just reading this.
Edited to add: whatever money I have left over if I exceed my goal will go to charity.
I’ve seen these work for other people so…
Guys, I’d like your help.
This is my mum:
She’s 56 (57 in March) and she’s had six kids. I’m not joking.
And I love my mum, but she has terrible self esteem.
She believes she’s fat and ugly, and is constantly going on about how much she hates herself. I’ve been trying a long time to prove to her that she’s beautiful. This is where I want your help.
Please REBLOG or LIKE if you think my mum is beautiful.
Help me prove to her that she’s not fat or ugly -
And even if she were fat, it doesn’t matter, she’d still be beautiful.
Thank you :)
So I can’t work in the field I’m super passionate about because I’m so scared of not being good enough. This fear paralyzes me and makes it extremely challenging to dry at all. I’m always trying to “just do it.” That doesn’t always work so well. Does anyone have any advice on how to overcome fears of failure as an artist?
Massive Rae Update + Sketch Commissions
OK, guys.. I know I do a lot of these but… I’ve had such a bad week I need to get it all out and just throw it out there so you guys know what’s going on and what not.
- I’ve started work at the nearby Cinemark—I work box, concessions and usher work. Yaaaay, money!
- My grandma’s been in the hospital since 1 in the morning yesterday and my mummy’s been with her the entire time. I’ve only seen my mom once in 24 hours, and I was half awake when that happened. So, as of now, I’m playing mommy with the baby until she can get home with my grandmother.
- Playing mother is hard. Very hard. Especially when you are not supposed to be the mother, you’re the big sister and he’s very confused as to why you’re doing everything and not his mummy.
- The ‘hood has just informed me that my last month of rent for next year is due in two weeks, and I don’t think my paycheck will be covering that at all. Yay. Kill me now.
- My laptop has crashed several times over the last couple of days. I don’t know how much longer this is gonna last for me. Photoshop is overwhelming for my computer’s processor to run, which is terrible, because I need it for commissions and Turner, Blooming Mericcups and Thomas’ Shadows.
- My depression has come back with a horrible vengeance that is slowly and surely killing me. It’s gotten to the point where sometimes all I can do is just sit up and stare blankly at nothing. Thinking about work and other things makes me want to just full on sob at nothing—and I’m getting mad. I’ll be heading down to Provo in the next week to see if I can get into the counseling center…
*deep breath* So… as you can see, there’s a lot going on right now… I’m kinda dying inside right now. I don’t know what to do about all of this. With Glenwood needing money so soon, I don’t know if I can make the payment, and with my laptop crashing when I run needed programs, I don’t know if I can work on the commission things needed to help me earn that money…
… This is me asking for help. My original plan was to ask grandma to help me pay for rent and then I’d pay her back the following week when my paycheck came—that obviously will not be happening now that she has her own medical bills to handle.
So…
… Sketch commissions? I’m gonna try to work on as much as I can today and tomorrow and Tuesday—and I’m gonna work my butt off. Even if it kills me.
1. CityApproves: Vinyl, Octavia and 2 OCs
2. Butterfly-Heart-Beat: Mericcup
3. Grablepony: Two commissions of bat-ponies
4. Smilingshroud: A smile
5. Pisces-Kelp: Pisces and TARDIS
6. Asklotsthepony: 2 OCS
7. Snoninja: OC sketch

Please and thanks guys—all money that I end up not using for rent will go towards a new laptop so I can stay in the game and on top of things. If you can’t help out personally, could you please spread the word around? That’d mean a great deal to me.

IMPORTANT: I NEED SOME HELP PLEASE
So, this is my flute.
My flute needs a new home, because sadly, my high school’s band program sucks pretty badly. I have tried eBay, craigslist and Amazon, only to have no one respond (though with Amazon, it was more of having everything be so damn complicated.
I also have been in need of a little extra money, as I’m wishing to go to kumoricon next year and also buy a used drawing tablet.
That’s when all of tumblr comes in to play.
I’m selling the flute for $230 along with some sheet music like The Little Mermaid and Aladdin, though I am willing to go a little lower. It’s an Emerson EF2 Student Flute, and comes with case, cleaning cloth and cleaning rod. If you are interested, drop me an ask and I will gladly and happily respond within a day at most. If I don’t reply back, send another ask.
If you’re not interested, could you please please please reblog this? I just really need some help and a little extra money.
Thank you!
