Heyy, so, would anyone be interrested in commissioning me ?
English website
I can't really afford anything other than food every month, there are some things that i need/want that i just can't get, and my savings account is getting dangerously shallow.
On top of that i'm trying to save up for a tattoo coverup, as i've recently found out the tattooist who did my chest is a transphobe.
Basically what i'm saying is that i would enjoy maybe being able to either spend or save up a bit of money without having to eat ice soup and have to dig into my ever shrinking savings account at the end of the month. I've had my website and online accounts to share my art for months but i can't really manage to take off whatsoever.
If you aren't interested/ can't afford to commission, i would very much appreciate it if you could share this.
I need help, i am getting desperate with the way no amount of effort into trying to promote my art seems to attract anyone. I am disabled, i cannot work a conventional job and no at home job hires people who dropped out of (or, more accurately, got dropped off by) school. I have nothing to give aside from art.
Hey so uh, i'm kinda going through it..
Just as i'd saved up enough to get a chest tattoo coverup i needed, i'm suddently hit with surprise event after surprise event that are dangerously digging into my life savings...
I haven't done groceries this month in an effort to stay afloat, i eat only one meal per day, my family can't help much more than they already do...
I offer commissions as low as 5 euros/dollars. I mostly specialise in animals/creatures, and mascots.
I hate playing pity for ego reasons, but i'm honestly desperate.
Any sale would mean the world to me. I need help.

Something i can't get over is just how hostile this community is to trans people and Especially transfem folk.
If i were a trans girl and had pulled the kind of shit i did on this blog and in the ark community, i wouldn't just get hatemail, i'd be tracked on every account i use, turned into a lolcow, and would have a callout post listing all the times i've "harassed" (criticised) public figures and given mean replies to minors.
I suppose i can explain further why Irritator having a stretchy jaw is dubious, and also why the splitting jaw interpretation is exceptionally stupid.
Some birds evolved stretchy jaw bones to allow them to swallow larger prey. Spinosaurids did not need such a specific adaptation as they have teeth and claws to manipulate and potion larger prey items with. The bones on spinosaurids are also much bigger than those of birds, which would make it harder to evolve into being stretchy in any significant way without lowering it's structural integrity, especially when those jaws were used to catch strong, wriggling, possibly relatively large prey.
The split jaw interpretation is in turn espetially absurd, as the whole reason why snakes have a "split jaw" (more specifically a lower jaw held together by stretchy tissue) is because they're a group of tertapods that evolved to stop being tetrapods, they have no limbs to help them pick appart their food, and they can't solely rely on gravity to swallow. The two sides of a snake's lower jaw being able to move independently is used to pull food into the mouth, with each side taking turns grabbing and pulling. it is an extremely specific feature and behavior, and they were certainly not needed for an animal with claws and the ability to shake it's head to pull food into smaller bites.
You know a scientific community is doing very good when a dubious at best paper comes out and people immediatly start drawing a real animal with a split jaw to refference a game made by a pedo and an abuser.

It isn’t some secret transphobic-support message. It’s literally the name.
Most of the sames in the game for sub speices based on different fossils have fictional names.
This isn't a "dracorex", "dracorex" doesn't exist, it's a juvenile of an already named taxa. This is an adult Pachycephalosaurus with a head based on a juvenile fossil, it did not need to take the name, especially as, again, there are other similar instances in the game that use fictional names instead.
They could have very easily called it any sort of dragon-related name to Imply what it's based on instead and avoided the HP refference altogather.
There is no reason to believe they didn't know/ no one made them aware of the controversy of this name of a taxa that doesn't even exist, considering how widespread the knowledge about j.k.rowling's ongoing bigotry is now, and doing so much as not caring nowdays is hostile behavior in itself. If anything they shouldn't even have touched "dracorex" with a 50ft pole in the first place let alone use it's actual name.
Maybe next time it would be good to shut your trap for five seconds and read comments already made and answered about the post instead of posting an """""gotcha""""" take to at least two other people.
Why did you abandon the old Discord server you made back when you were Adam-Loves-Dinosaurs? You never even announced anything before ghosting them. /gen
Sorry for the late reply, was moving out and then went to the hospital (top surgery!).
I abandoned the server because i had been pretty mean to a specific member, agressive even, and couldn't really bear to show my face anymore. I ghosted it instead of deleting because i didn't want to suddently cut off interraction between members, as for a while after i was gone, i could see the server was still active.
I have apologised to the aforementioned member, and he took the apology, i am very grateful for this. He's a cool guy, though i'm not tagging his name as i don't know how he'd feel being roped back into this story.
Back then when things started to go south, i was at a pretty low point in my life, and it kinda stayed that way until very, very recently. Thing after thing would happen, and the paleo&dinosaur community being toxic did not help me with trying to heal (unrelated to the server, this is more so about running this blog, which was much more active back then), i was on edge and my mood was ever shifting. This does not justify any of this, of course, and it's not my intent to claim it does, instead i point that out as being what i can see looking back, about the ways i was feeling. Regardless of all this, acting the way i did and bringing upset and hurt to people i had promised safety to through running that server was unfair and cruel.
I am not sure what now could be done to better the bad i have done.
I am very thankful to have been friends with him and everyone else in the server for this while. It's a shame i couldn't be up to the task i promised i could hold back then. I am open to chat if anyone from the server has anything to ask or tell me.
And above all else, i apologise.
We’ve now gone in a full circle with paleotwitter spiralling back into shrinkwrapping and spikes, obsessing over monster dinosaurs and defending them, and adding dumb shit like earlobes to dinosaurs, drawing them in porn poses, and calling pterosaurs slurs, all because some mostly cis straight influencer artists did it.
And on the opposite side you got a fucking Jurassic World game taking inspiration from Prehistoric Planet to just casually add some of the most best depictions of Yutyrannus, Deinocheirus, Sinosauropteryx and Jeholopterus ever made, let alone in video games.
Praying for Frontier to make their own dinosaur game without being chained to the ovewhelming stank of JW and use only their own in house artists and advice from Actual paleontologists and most of all biologists who specialise in living animal anatomy to make it as true to life as Planet Zoo.
And to the few people who don’t seem to have seen my blog before, yes, i do think they should go up against that Other shitty “”more accurate”” dinosaur park game and crush them so that they rot and die, do not promote them on my posts <3

Nothing like waking up and checking my blog notes only to find a zoophile saying they prefer scaly raptors because they want to fuck them and a terf saying something vile i don’t feel comfortable repeating.

Begging on my hands and knees for people to read replies before trying to make a "gotcha" point that has already been established at least twice as not being an actual point.

Just wondering what's so bad about Prehistoric kingdom? The trailer looks really good (aside from the lipless T-Rex)

Plus: They removed the cave painting patterns on prehistoric mammals to replace it with bland souless brown.
They also decided to make a good portion of creatures and features they promised for the full release paid dlc instead.
Prehistoric Kingdom is a ripoff and a harmful franchise orchestrated by a gaggle of bigots, and they dragged a beloved childhood hero figure for many paleo enthusiasts into this for clout points, and it’s working because no one wants to face the fact that they’re a bunch of scumbags promoting manipulating facts just to fit an “”aesthetic””.
I will search for the ones relating to the poor design choices of the game at some point, however my main point was expressing again how rancid both the community and dev team are as human beings, and most of the stuff relating to that i have reblogged at the same time as this one. There’s only one i have to scroll around my blog to find again, which was one showing screenshots of the PK server openly shitting on BLM with no backlash from admins or the devs.
I suspect the issues with the links come from my url change, very sorry about that :^(
I hope you are capable of making better points towards these accusations. Your attempts at cancelling the developers have been pitiful. You probably won't even mention that moderation has been reinforced due to your accusations. Talk in the discord sometime, maybe you'd get "dogpiled" and "slurred". Wouldn't you like that kind of material for your project?

I used to be excited for the game Prehistoric Kingdom but their official Discord server is still having outbursts of transphobia and I’m being shittalked in there so whatever
Some samples from last week
Also they will probably refer to this as “doxing”
Also for those unaware “based” is 4chan slang
And that’s really great how they bring this with Edmund up
I do not have to forgive him
I asked him more than once to not misgender me and he just continued, then later said as excuse to someone else that “he had no idea I was transitioning” so he was just using he/him and she/her “to play safe” except they/them could be used and was even at the time in my profile bios for the span of almost a year until I removed them due to unrelated harassment near the end of 2019, which he ignored, and he never even used she/her, but only he/him
During the unrelated harassment I was also confronted by the user I marked here in this shade of blue
He confronted me, asking me why I don’t like Edmund because he’s such a great person
I don’t have to forgive Edmund, Edmund hasn’t even apologized properly and I do not have to have him in my life
Oh and fantastic how people complain about the blurs I use as if they pay me
I have not been paid for these paintings you complain about and there is no reason to tear me apart as if I’m a professional
Sure, I opened commissions now, but this was this year, anything before that, just a hobby
And don’t hit me with “You just can’t take criticism” when you lump things like the transphobia I receive in with this
On a somewhat related note: Do not lump transphobia in as homophobia, by doing this you are tapping into Blanchardism
Now Edmund is upset because apparently I am making false claims in this post about him being transphobic and homophobic even though I never said any of those things about him
All I said was that Edmund kept misgendering and deadnaming me a couple times even though I asked him not to and I don’t want to interact with him anymore as he causes me discomfort, that is literally it
The post will however stay up as Edmund still contiues the misgendering and deadnaming and so do other server members and I’m not even censoring usernames anymore because the Prehistoric Kingdom server is public, not a private chat
Deadname censored in these:
Also again the Prehistoric Kingdom server is shit and the moderators barely seem to care
And do they even realize I’m friends with Joschua?
I even slept at his place a couple times
Not to mention that I’m also German but I guess being a trans POC mutes that out for them
