With the new year approaching, if you're looking for new paper products for your journal, diary, grimoire, any and all writing purposes, I highly recommend Sterling Ink. A small business owned by a woman of color, there is a wide variety of beautiful planners, notebooks, loose leaves, and stickers available. There are also monthly stationary subscriptions.

I don't know how else to explain to some of y'all that "people should get paid for their work" isn't "hating the poor".

Writers getting paid for the books they write, artists getting paid for the arts they create, diviners getting paid for their divination services, these aren't the people you should be cheating/stealing from to help the poor.

(Tmi ask warning? I think?)

The latest chapter had me wondering from the tidbit of Kyle nervous about taking John's knot, but can betas technically fit a knot in them?

I'd imagine with enough prep it would be a yes. It'd probably be a common kink in this universe given that we probably have toys like that irl 😭 (not 100 on that because not my thing really but I'd imagine it exists lmao)

Lmao it takes a lot to make me TMI darling.

But yeah, betas can take knots, but it would take a lot of prep and lube since it's a lot and their bodies aren't quite built for it like omegas are.

I can imagine it is a kink lol. There's probably alphas and betas out there that like being knotted 😂 there's probably knotting toys in that universe (and yes they do exist in this one). The market is probably made up of more alphas and betas for those than omegas 😂

The Artisans Cooperative marketplace is temporarily only able to facilitate sales to the US and Canada. I'm looking at a secondary spot to open up for German sales specifically, but I also might re-open the ko-fi listings for better reach.

Atm the Coop is the only place I've got my stuff up on, so until I can muster up the spoons to change that, if you're outside of North America then you'll have to ask directly for an item and I can send you an invoice via Stripe.

Some things you can buy rn:

[Collective ID: Two small crocheted chickens, one that's top heavy. Five pink crocheted strawberries. A large blue tote bag made with a waffle-like texture fit comfortably over a shoulder. Two small bags with long straps made with a basket weave texture in blue and grey yarn. /end ID]

Made this infographic as a guide for people who want to support their favorite artists but aren't totally sure how. This only serves as a general guide, and will be slightly different depending on the artist. Also, I know it says "small" artists but this can apply to any artist of any size!
