My close friend recently adopted a puppy named Peeps, who is adorable and as sweet as her name suggests. Unfortunately, within 48 hours of adopting Peeps, the poor puppy had to be rushed to the emergency vet. The vet was able to stablize Peeps and set her on the road to recovery. However, that care racked up a bill of almost $8000. We're trying to raise money to help my friend offset the vet bills so that Peeps can continue to live a happy, full life.

If you can donate, that would be amazing, but also if you could share, that would help too!

Thank you!

P.S. Have some bonus Peeps!

One of the first major ideas I had for a full-fledged Saiyuki piece was ‘Touched by Gold’ since gold is already thematically important for Sanzo and Goku, and I thought it would be fun to expand that to the whole team. In Hakkai’s case, it’s Hands of Gold as Kanan loved his hands, and these same hands are the ones caring for and potentially holding his friends’ lives in them as Team Healer. However, that the gold drips is a callback to a time where they were coated with blood instead, because I love the killer-healer juxtaposition he embodies.

Hope fades Into the world of night Through shadows falling Out of memory and time Don't say We have come now to the end White shores are calling You and I will meet again

Wandering on the Saiyuki Discord had me tripping over a bittersweet flash fic that I absolutely had to illustrate, which initially began as just a fun giftart exercise, but turned into this labour of love on the hope that one day, we'll see the end of our boys' journey... and it'll be a kind one after following their adventures since the turn of the millennium.

Major thanks to the author of Lifespans for allowing me to illustrate an artwork for their wonderful written piece!

A textless version of Hakkai and Gojyo's wedding picture Goku has on the altar can be found under the cut!

お題「紫陽花」

WIP setting up a wee character sheet for blorbo because the way I depict him in my style is still a liiiiitle all over the place, but I THINK I’m happy with this take on him.

Nothing to SEE HERE just a kindly schoolteacher who probably buys classroom supplies and arranges end-year parties for his pupils on his own dime, and high-fives them on class entry.

Dear Representative [Name],

I am writing to express my strong opposition to H.R. 8250 (The "Parents Decide Act"). As your constituent and a concerned citizen, I believe this bill introduces unprecedented risks to digital privacy and security.

Specifically, I am alarmed by:

SEC. 2(a)(1)(B): Requiring age verification to even use an operating system creates a mandatory "hardware lockout" that ends anonymous computing and forces users to hand over sensitive identification data to major corporations just to power on their devices.

SEC. 2(a)(3): Mandating that OS providers create a system for all app developers to access verification data is a massive security vulnerability. This effectively creates a centralized API of user identities accessible to thousands of third-party developers, many of whom may lack adequate data protection.

This bill does not protect children; it creates a centralized surveillance infrastructure at the OS level. I urge you to protect the privacy of your constituents and vote NO on H.R. 8250.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]

Given that, in the wake of this mandatory identification policy, my country seems to be moving to hand over its citizens biometric data, like fingerprints, Face ID files, and identification documents, over to the USA and to ICE to maintain the visa free travel (ESTA) we have, I strongly urge any US resident to send these emails, or make calls.

But if you can’t do that, the most powerful thing you can do is spread the word. Tell your friends, family, coworkers, anyone who can help.

My reach will likely be small, and so I don’t know if this will mean very much in the grand scheme of things, but I cannot stand to see this tracking happen to another population as it did to mine.

And if you think it won’t affect you, it will. All anonymity goes out the window when your accounts can be linked via your personal ID
