Ooooo! Reblogging because I recently made a Twitter (for easy-to-guess reasons), so this is useful tips!
I’m going to a convention that I’m vending for, and it’s a lot to get there both time and money wise, n that is already tapping into my savings just a bit. I don’t need much, just like 45 bucks to pay my phone bill so I’m prepared.
Thus, I’m opening little 10$ coloured sketches for this week only (June 7th 2018-June 13th 2018)
Some examples of my art! ^ I absolutely don’t care what you need me to draw, as long as it’s not nsfw or offensive! If you wanna get a proper commission, or you want to donate, I’m leaving my commission links and my paypal.me here! Thank you so much for your time!

↪FAMILY EMERGENCY COMMISSIONS OPENS↩
Hey guys, so I’m gonna have to put a pause on all of my projects for a bit. My parents had a terrible fire at their house; the living room, kitchen and their bedroom is trashed. They’re all fine and weren’t home, but the hit was still big. They lost appliances, 20+ year old family photos, but worst of all, the pets that were trapped inside couldn’t be revived. My mother is devastated.
My family is currently barred from staying at the house and are at a hotel off of $900 Red Cross provided them, but knowing food costs, hotel prices, and gas to get the kids to school each day, that will barely last them a week. I want to help them the best that I can, so I’m opening commissions with no foreseeable slot limit - I just really want to help fund them to pay for cleaning, repairs, and replacements.
I know that I can never really replace their babies (my brother’s cat and my mom’s cat & birds), but I also intend to get hopefully each of them a kitten for Christmas to at least ease the blow of losing Lucyfer and Carly. So I’m keeping adoption fees with the necessary surgery payments (shots, spay/neuter) as goals in mind as well.
Rules & Notes ✂ Payment is in full up front and through a Paypal invoice I send you. ✂ Picture references, please. ✂ Do not use your commission for commercial use. ✂ I have the right to refuse a commission should I feel uncomfortable with the subject matter (this is basically mechas or anything nsfw) ✂ I will work on the commission first come first serve upon payment. Please be patient with me, as this is a tough time but I promise that I’ll be working on basically nothing else but these commissions and my store orders. ✂ If you have any questions, please send me an ask, DM, or email. I’ll see it and respond within 48 hours.
Please email me at [phil-lycheesesteak@live.com] or DM me with your commission information, including the email you would like me to send the invoice to. If you’d like to just donate, my ko-fi is below.

In short, my mom’s dying. She’s currently in a hospice wing in Louisville undergoing pain management for aggressive cancer that she fought all last year. There’ve been a lot of ups and downs, but at this point we just want her to go with as little pain as possible.
Recently, I made the executive decision not to drop out of school during her final months because education means a lot to not just me but my mother who desperately fought for me to go to the school I’m at now. She wanted this, and while it’s a financial burden, it originally wasn’t meant to be. We were in a good financial place, I had almost full scholarship and my parents were certain they’d be able to cover the difference. That said, through the grief, working and trying to summon the strength to get out of bed has been incredibly taxing, I ignored my financial aid situation until my meal plan got turned off yesterday. I’m over 4,000 in the hole and the school just isn’t being understanding.
I can’t work full-time (but I am working to eat) between driving the two hours from school to home to see her and keeping it together, and I’m already behind on commissions because I’ve been coping terribly. I can’t dropout because it would break her heart and I don’t think I’d be able to make it through this without academia as a distraction.
Already my mother is shouldering a lot of blame. She’s leaving behind my fifteen-year-old sister and five-year-old nephew she adopted after her son died. She’s spent her final months apologizing, and the other week she finally realized she wouldn’t be alive to see me graduate this spring. I don’t know what to say or how to articulate how heartbroken I am right now, but I’m honestly destroyed because I was rushing through undergrad to graduate in time for her. Her life has been hard, she’s been a badass fighter since the start, and while I know everyone says this, she genuinely doesn’t deserve this.
I want to graduate for her. I have to have some kind of education and stability in case I wind up with one of those kids. I want to be a pillar for my sister when she goes to college and be able to afford to assist my nephew. I have to graduate. I have to get through this year. Dropping out, no matter how grief stricken I am, is not an option. I have a near 4.0 GPA and I’m getting ready for grad school this semester so that these kids will have something. No one else has been willing to cope the way I am, and it scares me for them. They’re all I think about.
It feels disgusting having to ask for help all the time, but this is so out of my control at this point. Please help me or please reblog. I need this. I don’t think I can handle another crippling disappointment right now.
Now with and adjusted link. Thank you to everyone who’s donating and reblogging. I appreciate this so much.
Lee is one of my closest friends. They’ve been through the ringer and it’d mean a lot to help them out if you can.
hi! i have around 70 articles of clothing that i havent been wearing that i want to mail to any trans girls who need some new clothes! all the information is right here! please share this :) thank you
The HR manager tried to convince me that the offer was competitive. She told me that she couldn’t offer more because it would be unfair to other paralegals. She said that if we did not agree to a salary that day, then she would have to suspend me because I would be working past the allowed temp phase. I insisted that she look into a higher offer and she agreed that we could meet again later. Before I left, she had something to add.
“Make sure you don’t talk about your salary with anyone,” she said sweetly, as if she was giving advice to her own son. “It causes conflict and people can be let go for doing it.” (This is to the best of my recollection, not verbatim.)
It wasn’t all that surprising to hear this from a corporate HR manager. What was surprising was the déjà vu.
Just three months earlier, some of my coworkers at the coffee shop told me that our bosses, who worked in the office on salaries, and even the owner, got a higher cut of the tips than we did. One barista told me that when she complained about it, the managers reduced her hours.
When you make minimum wage and have to fight for more than 30 hours per week, tips are pretty important, so I sat down with my managers to discuss the controversy. That’s when they told me not to talk about it with the other baristas. The owner “hates it when people talk about money,” my manager added, and “would fire people for it if he could.” I sulked back to the espresso machine, making my lattes at half speed and failing to do side work.
In both workplaces, my bosses were breaking the law.
Under the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 (NLRA), all workers have the right to engage “concerted activity for mutual aid or protection” and “organize a union to negotiate with [their] employer concerning [their] wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment.” In six states, including my home state of Illinois, the law even more explicitly protects the rights of workers to discuss their pay.
This is true whether the employers make their threats verbally or on paper and whether the consequences are firing or merely some sort of cold shoulder from management. My managers at the coffee shop seemed to understand that they weren’t allowed to fire me solely for talking about pay, but they may not have known that it is also illegal to discourage employees from discussing their pay with each other. As NYU law professor Cynthia Estlund explained to NPR, the law “means that you and your co-workers get to talk together about things that matter to you at work.” Even “a nudge from the boss saying ‘we don’t do that around here’ … is also unlawful under the National Labor Relations Act,” Estlund added.
And yet, gag rules thrive in workplaces across the country. In a report updated this year, the Institute for Women’s Policy Research found that about half of American employees in all sectors are either explicitly prohibited or strongly discouraged from discussing pay with their coworkers. In the private sector, the number is higher, at 61 percent.
Damn managers have definitely told me this before
Always reblog
adding to this on the subject of medical/family leave:
a coworker of mine (and integral part of a voluntary team he and I are the sole members of) had to have foot surgery and was told he’d need six weeks to recuperate. when he went to HR they told him his best option was to resign and then reapply for his same job after his 6 week recovery time.
he originally asked them if he could take those weeks as unpaid time off, and was about to take their “quit and come back” offer because they made it sound like the only option. this would have cancelled the very same healthcare he was using to pay for the treatment in the first place.
this is a fairly common tactic HR managers will try to use to scare workers out of taking any leave at all, or force you to reduce the amount of time you are “unproductive.”
it is also illegal under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act - http://www.dol.gov/whd/fmla/
you are entitled to twelve full weeks of (unpaid) time off to care for a family member or to recuperate from medical conditions. the explicit qualifying scenarios are listed on the website above.
you are entitled to keep your job and return to your position on completion. any repercussion/dismissal from your company is illegal. do not get bullied out of your job for medical treatments you or a family member needs. if you are in a situation where you are being forced to quit for a situation that qualifies under FMLA you should contact a lawyer.
TO REITERATE: IT IS ILLEGAL TO BE FIRED FOR DISCUSSING PAY WITH FELLOW EMPLOYEES. IT IS A TYPE OF WORKER/UNION SUPPRESSION.
Please, stop eating fish. The world’s stocks of seafood will have collapsed by 2048 at present rates of destruction by fishing. This means the ocean will be empty by 2048 if people don’t stop eating fish. The fishing industry is the biggest killer of animals in the world, more than 1 trillion fish die each year. Please ask yourself if your fish consumption is worth the total extinction of all marine life. Please stop eating fish and alert everyone you know what will happen if we don’t.
holy shit this is actually true
i dont even buy fish that much and golly i love fish but its not worth this
I love seeing posts like this circulating, getting big. I’m GLAD people are finally scared.
If you can’t cut fish out of your diet, there are also options for sustainable fish! Farmed fish like catfish and tilapia are very sustainable (especially catfish, because they eat an entirely vegetarian diet). They actually help oceans, because by choosing sustainable fish, you leave the at-risk fish in the water. The absolute worst fish to buy or eat are large predatory fish like tuna, swordfish, shark, and the like.
If you want to know which fish are best for the environment to eat, check out seafoodwatch.org. They have a searchable database where you can check out which fishes are best and worst! And This Page on their website has sustainability guides for every state in the United States, so wherever you are in the country you can know how to help the ocean.
