#telekitneticart #indigenousart If you weren't aware already, this is the unfortunate hand I've been dealt this holiday season: having to job hunt in the winter while a potential recession is on the horizon.

ko-fi.com/telekitnetic...

RBs on this post are really appreciated <3
A drawing of TeleKitnetic's fursona making the shinji chair meme post. The top text reads "I got laid off from my day job", the bottom text simply reads "Bottom text". "After my final shift for the week last Thursday, my boss pulled me aside and told me I'd been let go (termination without cause) with severance in lieu of a two week notice. That day job paid for all of my rent, plus most of my expenses. The severance I got will cover most of my rent + expenses for one month, but that's it. And it's a very difficult time to be looking for a job right now (my last big job hunt took almost three months for a minimum wage position). My family has offered to lend me a hand for expenses if I need it, and I'm going to be looking into options like EI and art grants to keep me afloat, but other then that, my monthly income is now almost entirely dependent on my artwork. And it's obviously a very difficult time to be trying to make a living as an independent artist right now." I know it's a pretty rough time (understatement) for a lot of folks right now, but if you're able to give some money to help me out while I'm trying to get through this rut, it'd be greatly appreciated. 1. I have a monthly ko-fi membership (Tip Jar) where you can get occasional private WIP updates for as low as 4$ CAD (about 3$ USD) per month! This is great if you don't have the change for a commission or shop items/shipping but want to pitch in a little bit to me! 2. I have an online shop on the same ko-fi! It has stickers, prints, pins, and keychains of my formline art. US shipping is available and prepaid duties (tariffs, derogatory) are factored into the applicable product shipping cost. Great if you're looking for stocking stuffers this holiday season! 3. I take custom commissions for formline art from time to time! The reason I list this last is because comms take the most physical and mental strain of all these options, and the last thing I want to do is burn myself out when I'm already struggling. If you can't support me financially, that is fine! Reblogging/sharing my posts, shop listings, and art helps more then you think! A screenshot of TeleKitnetic's ko-fi shop.

Sadly I didn't finish my new comic in time for the Symposium, but I will be publishing it next Monday , the 17th. People at the Symposium will receive a special discount code for the physical copy, which will be published with my shorts Lycanthrope and Werewolf in a zine titled "Canine Teeth."

New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people

www.404media.co/ice-and-cbp-...
Ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee Bennie G. Thompson said in a statement “Mobile Fortify is a dangerous tool in the hands of ICE, and it puts American citizens at risk of detention and even deportation.” He also said “ICE officials have told us that an apparent biometric match by Mobile Fortify is a ‘definitive’ determination of a person’s status and that an ICE officer may ignore evidence of American citizenship—including a birth certificate—if the app says the person is an alien. ICE using a mobile biometrics app in ways its developers at CBP never intended or tested is a frightening, repugnant, and unconstitutional attack on Americans’ rights and freedoms.”

theyre so fakiru actually
art of ralsei and susie. they appear to be underwater. susie is taking ralsei's hand in both of hers and saying to him "Even if you have to go back to your 'true' self... Even after that day comes, I'll stay by your side forever." (this is based on dialogue from princess tutu.) ralsei is looking at her in amazement and crying. susie embraces ralsei from behind, and ralsei leans back into her with a blissful smile as light filters down from above.
