Rose Nylund sent a man to the Upper Room with that St. Olaf Super Soaker 3000. Not that controversial, tbh.

His vet bill might be around $1,512. I have about 1000 in my savings (i can only take $700 of it sadly) I have $293 in direct donations via paypal and such so far. So… I am hoping to get more donations I may be here all night I don’t mind as long as my baby is okay.

((I hate to ask for donations but I'd rather try to go to the vet within the next 24ish hours and nip this in the bud, than to just sit around and do nothing. I wanna help my cat
(This is mom's art account)

We will be transparent and document the Vet visit of course.))

DM me if you wanna donate to my Paypal (I'll only send it via DM's and make sure it's me so you don't get scammed those scammers are EVERYWHERE!!!)

DM me if you wanna donate to me to help me get to the vet, I don't drive so I'd have to Uber Pet and it's like $50-$70 per ride.
Another post says
I'd be willing to document the WHOLE ER vet visit + receipts as proof of your money helping my cat feel better.

DM's are open if you wanna donate. + The ER vet is $148 check up, the lady on the phone said they could give him fluids + give him an Appetite Stimulant medication.

Branson COMMS OPEN

@bransonreese.bsky.social

Happy ten years to this bad boy.

A comic I drew on a takeout napkin in 2015. If you're pressed for time, it's the original One Fear comic. Boom. Done. Get on with your day. If you don't value your time, here's a description: it's a comic, right? Well here's the twist: whole thing's on a napkin. Thinest sharpie for the lines, if I recall correctly. Comic is titled "TEEN COMIX" and the first panel has a guy in sunglasses wearing a shirt that says "NO FEAR." His friend is approaching, cut off by the panel's edge. His shirt says... something. But what? Fear not, the next panel clears that right up. Second panel is zoomed in on the friend's shirt. It reads "WHAT IF THEY MADE SIMPSONS PORN ILLEGAL?" Last panel is the guy from the first panel alone now. His shirt now reads "ONE FEAR." The title is attributed to Branson '15 which should go a long way to explaining how far I expected this to spread when I drew it. It was unfathomable to me that people who didn't know me on a first name basis would see it. Little did I know that every fandom on the internet would edit it with something interminable like "The Xanadon Guild receiving a buff from Trade Legion in Era of Conquest IV." I never get them but hey, god bless. I still see those from time to time but it's really slowed down. Nowadays this is an ancient meme, frozen in place like a masturbating Pompeii victim covered in the ash of the centuries.

Fairy Moon 🧚‍♂️💚💜✨

An illustration of a kneeling fairy. She has a vine around her left thigh, hand on the right. Her left hand is poised at her cheek as she regards the viewer with parted, pouty lips. The palette of the pieces is a violet background, the fairy composed of a variety of purples and pale slightly grey blues and wonderfully neon greens. 🎨✨

Sincerely delighted to discover, 45 minutes into this nearly-wordless three-hour documentary about French monks who take vows of silence, that among the reasons they *can* talk is "to make sure the monastery cats know when it's mealtime by making little kitty-calling noises at them."
