Guys is this a scam?
Okay a little bit of context, someone is asking me to do a commission for them, which I said okay, they told me if I could draw their child's pet, which I had no issue, however they offered me 200 usd, I initially said no bc that's not the range i usually charge, but they said they'd be willing so i said okay
Now they sent me a screenshot where it shows they payed the amount (they asked me to give them my paypal gmail to just deposit it, which i didn't found odd because its not the first time someone rathers to pay me this way instead of me sending them an invoice) but the money they supposedly deposited hasn't reflect on my account yet
Now i told them this and they said i should check my inbox, i check my inbox and still nothing, then they said to check my spam...which is weird
This is what the spam looks like, and well, i find it weird that PayPal asks me to deposit 400 usd in order for the 200 usd to be able to be sent
Also that the domain of said email is off...

I鈥檓 be offering my Seasons Readings for the next 10 days. I only offer this reading four times a year - on the days surrounding the solstices and the equinoxes.
A 9 card spread spreading light on the coming season and opportunities for growth and healing. It鈥檚 a custom designed spread that rotates based on the time of year so it鈥檚 always a unique pull and experience.
I have been reading tarot professionally for 17 years so I promise I鈥檓 not just throwing stuff at a wall to see what sticks. I have a selection of decks to chose from but for this particular spread have recommendations if you have no preferences.
DM for inquiries!

i desperately need help to stay off the streets
my last two posts (here, and here) explain how and why we got here. unfortunately, the situation still hasn't been resolved, and that caused me to have another mental health crisis episode. as it stands, i'm unhoused. i spent a night in a basement sharing a cot with my two-times rapist out of desperation to try and save money, but i frankly couldn't tolerate that, so i've gotten a hotel room
i went to the housing authority with my moving truck on the day i moved out, and flat out told them if they couldn't assure me i'd be housed asap that i would contact the media and do an interview right in front of their building with the truck. that finally seemed to light a fire under them, so i was assured they would make a contract and i can move into an apartment next week, although they couldn't promise an exact day
so, after renting a truck, hiring movers, and getting a storage unit, i'm once again broke. i guess because it's the holiday season, the local hotels are all over $100 per night. the room i got is $132, and i don't even have enough to stay until tuesday, no less hire movers and renting a truck again. i am in a shelter desert. i desperately need to get through this final stretch and into a new unit, then hopefully i can focus on trying to recuperate and seek more intensive behavioral health treatment. my family is abusive, toxic, and enablers, and i don't have a local physical support system, online is all i have. i don't know where else to turn or what to do but beg to try and get through this until my housing is finally stable. i have three emotional support cats as well, and i'm so terrified of losing them or them being hurt because i was a literal day late and dollar short
paypal is probably the best way to donate to me. in the state i'm in i unfortunately can't offer commissions right now. the free and most massively helpful thing anyone can do is share this post so folks who do have the disposable income to help can see it and reach out. all donations and shares are so meaningful, i've only been able to survive thanks to everyone's support, and i'm so sorry to be a burden like this. this is a genuine attempt at survival and trying not to succumb to my worst urges. the horrors persist but i'm trying to as well

Look, I don't do commissions or anything, but I'm willing to do some small art for donations for a friend of mine, @re-lmayer who is tentatively awaiting housing from local housing authority. Here's her post with links to other posts that better explain the situation. Her paypal also (which is listed in the link)
Full transparency, I don't know how to handle commissions or that sort of stuff, and hey I don't even know what energy I have to put into art requests. But I want to try my best to help her. Here's some semi-recent examples of my art/doodles.

It's not entirely consistent (one of many reasons I don't do commissions) but it is what it is. If I can offer additional aid to her this is the only thing I can think to try to do.
EDIT: I guess I should say, proof of donation directly to her I guess is what I need with a request if you wanted to do that. At present the best way to communicate with me is via my Inbox. Currently my Messenger is only available to specific people, and I might open it if that's better... but if you want to follow up after an inbox message we can go from there.

well it finally happened
so my dad is almost 80, this man's been making Spirk content since Star Trek started airing basically
he never knew ao3 existed, he just thought people stopped writing fanfic when ff.net died, like it was a fad that had outgrown him or smth
he clicked an ao3 link in my pinned last night, realizing that they were in fact clickable
he's mad at me for not telling him earlier. "I don't have a lot of years left in me and there's so much to read"
he's gonna spend his whole retirement reading trek fanfic now jesus christ

you know... there's a cup that comes with the fries at five guys
like the size measurement
and it's like they don't even use it
they just dump 2 tons of fries on top of your burger and throw the cup in there
So if nothing else you get your worth in fries lol
I don't wanna leave the house yet so like I'm ordering Five Guys for delivery (I never eat there because it costs so much and this is...... delivery costs more lol)

"READ MY DNI" no. use your block button like an adult. i'm not scrolling through the many-paragraphs-long pinned posts of every blog i reblog something from. if you insist certain types of people aren't welcome in the notes of your posts then it's your responsibility to curate that. or choose a closed social media platform like facebook or instagram. or go and live in a barn away from humanity if you really don't like sharing the world with people who are different from you
