I added a PWYW option for sketches on my ko-fi that start at just $3 to help me cover some bills until I can land a job! (I also updated my main goal for that purpose as well, and this time commission income goes towards it too!)

wait lemme look something up real quick-- oh oh no
screenshot of the wikipedia page for datura, reading:
"Datura is a genus of nine species of highly poisonous, vespertine-flowering plants belonging to the nightshade family (Solanaceae).[1] They are commonly known as thornapples or jimsonweeds, but are also known as devil's trumpets or mad apple[2] (not to be confused with angel's trumpets, which are placed in the closely related genus Brugmansia). Other English common names include moonflower, devil's weed and hell's bells. All species of Datura are extremely poisonous and psychoactive, especially their seeds and flowers, which can cause respiratory depression, arrhythmias, fever, delirium, hallucinations, anticholinergic toxidrome, psychosis, and death if taken internally.[3]"

♥~*•pinned post•*~♥ hi, i'm sao! (pronounced "say-oh") jack of many trades (knitting, sewing, plushmaking, drawing, writing, cosplay and crafting) this is a personal account, not fandom specific, so expect plenty of life updates and whining ;) relevant collection tags + updates will go in thread!
single-hue art of sao as a bog witch with dark eye makeup and a lot of layered jewelry, in an all-black chemise and corset, with various knitted shawls over ragged skirts and a belt with potion bottles and skulls tied to it.  she has a black fox pelt draped over her shoulders.  signed 7/28/2020photo of sao in an anime con hotel wearing a very similar getup to the art. she has longer hair now with a lot of dangly hairsticks and is wearing a lacey face mask and a huge, draping hand-knitted shawl.

every time i try to watch anime anymore i'm having to be extremely disappointed with the state of the crunchy/netflix subtitles.... the netflix english subtitles for the japanese language isn't even a translation, it's the closed captions of the english dub!

i have made.... less than half of a small creature x,DD and i have learned!!! that everything this mod (scooping out the top of the leg/belly) does is lessen the *width* of the underside, nothing to the length of the legs! altho i was quite conservative with it i think....

SIGH i guess i have until possibly the middle of october before fafa can truly begin.......... plenty of time to work on stoatlian (probably he only needs one more head mockup and some pattern shifts i don't have to check (fluffing up tail + paws some) (i also don't have xl fabric yet).......

one thing i have learned that it took me too long to do so is that you CAN email companies small and large when you ordered something and weeks or months later it's still not there, you don't have to take the loss. and MOST of the time nothing bad will happen

unfortunately whatever happened to the water system + the storms seems to have kickstarted the worst season in the world: lake season. where all the tap water in town tastes like lake. (apparently something something algae blooms? it happens every autumn now tho and it did NOT 10 years ago ;n; )

perhaps my favorite thing i've learned in scrounging wikipedia on foxes and stoats for making plush hualians lifesize is that both of these animals are specifically described as having notably small braincases and big anal scent glands. hualian confirmed smelly and dumb x''D
