Feed Me To the Crows

have some mechabat week day two

give that knife/sword fight survivor nerve damage. give the character who was shot in the gut a stoma. give that fire survivor lung damage and an oxygen cannula. give that leg injury survivor a cane. give that starvation survivor gastroparesis. give that spinal injury survivor a manual chair or powerchair.

i have a file or folder on my pc that i want to share with other people. let's call it gayshit.mp3

unfortunately gayshit.mp3 is 750mb and im not paying for discord nitro so i need another way to send it

i put it into qbittorrent and it makes a torrent file. this is essentially a very small file that points to gayshit.mp3 so other computers can find it. kinda like a treasure map

i send this tiny file to my friend, who loads it into qbittorrent. their computer takes a moment to find mine over the vast expanse of cyberspace and then (as long as my pc is running and the file is still where it should be), it gets copied from my hard drive to theirs

this is the cool part: if somebody else loads that tiny file, they can download it from both of us. if i'm offline but my friend is on, the third person can still get it. this also means that if two people have separate halves of the file, they can download the other half from each other. as long as some combination of people have the pieces between them, they can all have the whole thing.

crucially this does not require a server!!! you can just upload the file to a few people and as long as they keep it, it's still accessible. as long as somebody, somewhere is still connected, it's available forever. the only way it goes away is if everybody disconnects from it.

{OPEN} 3 SLOTS

Yo my car decided to explode and I had to throw nearly $1000 at it to fix it. Unfortunately for me and my fam, we're in the middle of moving so this financial hit was pretty rough.

I used to do art commissions all the time, these days I'm more reclusive. I figured I'd try at least opening a few commissions to try and limp us along a little easier.

The money I need is mostly to feed my roommates instead of floating more debt.

✨

What I'm offering:

* 1️⃣ character full body sketch: $20

* 2️⃣ character full body sketch: $30

Payment up front. I'll work with whatever payment service you prefer.

I can draw:

* Humans, furries, monsters, bugs, robots, ships, g/ore, pretty much anything

* I thrive with complicated detailed characters of wacky cartoon shapes but I can draw anything.

Examples:
