Since I already have my rp stuff on my pinned post I think it might just be easier to make a carrd for commission info, that said, basic info for now since my particular brand of neurodivergence means finding out a set time for how long it takes me to do certain pieces is next to impossible to average out.
Until then this post will substitute (because I'm a perfectionist and if I make a carrd I'm gonna want it to look nice lol)
For flat color:
Headshot - $5
Half body - $10
Full body - $15
For shaded:
Headshot - $10
Half body - $15
Full body - $20
I also do lineless (think Homestuck) but that does take a bit more time and fiddling to do so it'd be an extra $3 on top of the base prices.
I can do simple backgrounds but extra pricing for that would have to vary depending on what exactly the background is.
Examples of my art can be found under #nocturnal emissions and messages/questions are welcome regardless of my online status!

do able-bodied people not understand that if disabled people call out of work every time they don't feel good that we would call out of work every fucking day?
like honestly. what do you think being disabled means?

"You're being entitled!" These bitches are asking us to fund their Hollywood-quality content dreams like Walt Disney pleading a bank he was in debt to to give him another loan to finish Bambi, a movie that did not see any monetary success until it rereleased seven years later. I have to pay so much big money in medical expenses every month that I don't have any "treats" (a starbucks coffee, a different subscription, etc) I can go without. I'm not the entitled one here.

did you know that i have a patreon you can subscribe to for as little as $2 a month?
⭐️ patreon.com/lalalychee ⭐️
you'll get to see work-in-progresses of all of my paintings that are posted nowhere else (such as the painting wip in this post), and you can ask for in-depth art advice to your heart's content ❤️ i also post makeup tutorials, vlogs, and anything else you feel inclined to request!
i am physically disabled with a very severe and rare disease called CRPS (aptly nicknamed the suicide disease because it is so horrific), and subscribing to my patreon helps me pay for my neverending medical bills. ideally i would one day no longer have to work a desk job at all and be able to rely solely on patreon and art so that i can operate on a schedule that works with my pain levels better, so this is a really important way to support me.
sharing this post to help get the word out is also so appreciated ❤️ thank you

So striking how at once a) three days of work travel can render me so extremely incapable of meeting my basic needs and thus fuck up my body really badly really fast and then b) how much better a night in my own bed next to my partner and a few cups of good tea can make me feel.

Idk if there's enough people talking about what a gigantic energy drain Complex PTSD is. It's not just one single traumatic event, it's having lived in a traumatic situation for a long time. And in the case of child abuse, your entire formative life period. Everything is a trigger, anxiety is your default, and your brain keeps trying to keep you safe by yelling at you about everything you're doing "wrong", which will lead to pain. Your brain is a constant war zone, braced for attack, rarely relaxed, at least some part of you always hypervigilant. The stress it takes on your body is insane. It's why trauma is linked to autoimmune issues, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and, according to one study, cancer.
Physical disability leaves you even more vulnerable and less able to live up to the impossible standards of control and "correct" behaviour your brain insists on, not to mention the free gift given to all patients of chronic illness that is medical gaslighting and patient-blaming, all of which simply compounds the trauma. Reduced physical and mental health obviously leads to systemic risk factors such as inability to pursue academic and professional qualifications, poverty and financial struggle, malnutrition, becoming unhoused or bad living conditions, exacerbated medical issues and further lack of medical resources, reliance on welfare and care networks, and becoming trapped in codependent, abusive or toxic relationships. The knock-on effects are endless.
This is all to say— if you're wondering why you can't seem to do more than the bare minimum every day when you haven't been diagnosed with a physical illness, or you're "not that disabled", or you think your symptoms are "just psychosomatic" (which means your brain is under so much intolerable stress that it's started taking a chair to the windows and destroying the furniture just to get you to NOTICE AND MAKE IT STOP): the answer is that your body is actually struggling under the kind of stress that kills trained soldiers and disables them for life. So stop trying to convince yourself that you're just not trying hard enough when what you really, desperately need to get your life on track is community, care, rest and ease.

I got a packet from the social security people I have to fill out and have sent back in--by mail--by the 26th. I got it on Friday. And I haven't looked at it til now, bc I was so stressed out about my dog being sick and i feel so overwhelmed. They want all my medical records from the last year, which I don't have, because I've only started keeping that stuff since I had my complete mental breakdown and she took me out of work. And there's so many pages and so much information they want. They have to nitpick my whole fucking life, before they can decide I deserve health. Being disabled in this country is a fucking nightmare. Instead of trying to hep, the just look for reasons to disqualify you. Because they don't want to help us; they just want us to go away

My mother really likes the rug I'm making for my apartment and said she's genuinely considering commissioning some from me. And like. I seriously deeply appreciate the thought and the fact that she likes it so much that she not only wants one of her own but will pay me for it too, but I don't think she realizes that actually doesn't do anything. "My" bank account is still owned by, managed, and accessed by her and my father. She can put money in or take money out whenever she wants. She sees all of the transactions that go thru it. If she pays me for it she's just moving her own money from one of her accounts to another one of her accounts but this time I know it exists. It's not MY money even if she pays "me".
