![Hi! Sadly, this is not the Cool kind of Announcement!
I'm starting to get pretty desperate. This is really the only platform I can turn to that sort of knows me?
My family of one (dustmother) is increasingly struggling to pay our bills! Our property tax has recently DOUBLED. We are increasingly struggling to crawl through various paralyzing anxieties to earn enough Money to pay for it.
As of the past few months, I've earned a whopping $000.00 Money outside of gig work dustmother has set up for me.
I really want to change that!! I Really do!!!
We've been going through hell and back with [ various horrifically drawn out battles, some legal, others financial ].
Needless to say, It's taken a huge toll on both of us.
Despite this, dustmother still wants me to succeed through my art and refuses to let me give up and work retail!!!
I plan on setting up commissions soon on Ko-fi and/or VGen, offering 2D sprites, 3D models, animated thingies in Blender or Godot in either dimensions, daresay regular-drawn Art???
I haven't gotten a proper commisions page set up yet. Preparations tend to make me Nervous! It may take a Moment!
In the meantime, I'm putting my foot in the door!!
PLEASE consider giving me any amount of $ you can.
Even a small Money would help dustmother and I get closer to being able to breathe instead of constantly scraping by.
She would be incredibly proud to see me work up the courage to ask for help and do something like this!!

![I feel the need to provide a bigger, Concrete picture.
Mainly to answer: [" Why does dustbots Need Help? "]
(1). Our property tax has recently DOUBLED.
We are $500 Money short of our mortgage this month.
($2396, $1161 of which is TAXES, WHAT THE FUCK??)
(2). We have rental property we can use for income, but readying it for use again has been pushed back by having to evict a former tenant who did not respect the property.
Various [ weather-induced damages to the property ] (which also did not respect the property) require the property getting various renovations. We simply cannot use it right now.
(3). Our main income source used to be a business we should technically still own, but our estranged family [ stole it from us through various acts of Forgery ]. We're not getting any income.
We've been suing them! We keep getting dragged in the mud!
It's been fun getting dragged in mud and painfully Expensive!!
So, dustmother and I need $500 Money at minimum.
Right now, I have a rudimentary goal for $100 Money on Ko-fi. If the goal gets met... nothing will happen... but the goal will get higher. Yay!
Sorry! I can't promise much right now.
But I will be extremely happy and thankful!
I will make a separate not-Emegency-framed post about commissions soon. I prefer not to fill feeds with Emergencies, but communication about what's needed is important!
Thank you, thank you, and thank you so much for reading!!! Genuinely, thank you!!!
