Rose garden and doves

hi so recently there was a very strong earthquake in Venezuela that left so many people deeply affected including my family that lives there. The government obviously doesn't have the means to help its people with the current economic situation and all so I would really appreciate some monetary help as my grandpa and aunt are currently struggling, their home is barely livable at this point (theres multiple cracks in the infraestructure) and they're in dire need of basic need products (food is scarce due to the high demand) There's also some direct friends of the family that were deeply affected and I would like to help them too, any dollar or sharing helps

Congrats, you're still supporting Qwel. Playing the game generates revenue that pays BCS. They get paid when the game gets engagement.

I'm fully aware the game itself needs to be one of the first three people play. With how popular it is, it's likely a lot of players go to game.

It's a similar concept as watching a YouTuber. Depending how many views they get, they'll get paid based on the amount. I'd know I've been on YouTube for almost a decade.

If you have an attachment to the game or just its play style, I encourage you to look into similar games or keep your support within the fandom and support fanartists.

I played this game for a year and a half. It's usually my go-to game on Roblox, but since finding all of the situation out on X. I stopped playing. I no longer support it or Qwel.

'We have Enough Dead Friends --- Lena Oleanderson' thank you @lena-oleanderson for making this poem, was a good read!

I made a post over on Twitter about how I’ll go forward regarding Dandy’s World, but !

I won’t be abandoning it, as ragebait honestly has been what’s keeping my will to draw still going - it’s hard to let go of that, lol. I’m going to moreso move focus onto my other interests and ocs and post them, and also probably work my ragebait / dandy’s world shit into its own thing . I personally also want to make this art account officially 17+, I won’t be posting explicit content. It’s just for my own comfort. I’m 22, and want to be able to draw freely! I should’ve had that disclaimer at the beginning of this account, but it’s better later than never.

My living situation has gone from iffy to bad to worse in a very short span of time.

If you non-black, reblog this when you see it and if you only see one or two additions on the stack, check comments to see if you can reblog a longer version. Pretty much all my shit is free to read/listen to, so send your money to other Black folks in the reblogs instead and help boost their art.

If you are getting gender affirming surgery, especially if it’s your first major surgery, PLEASE be aware that you can become SEVERELY depressed afterwards ESPECIALLY if you have a history of depression or suicidal ideation.

Post op depression is a natural reaction to the crazy mix of hormones your body goes through after major surgery as well as the stress and anxiety of recovery. Think of it like an adrenaline crash, but dragged out longer.

For me it kicked in about 6 weeks after top surgery and the worst of it lasted until about 10 weeks post op. EVERYTHING felt IMPOSSIBLE. None of the skills I’d been practicing worked. I thought everything was going to be bad forever. I didn’t attempt, but I was in the hospital. If it wasn’t for my support system I probably would have attempted.

This is not regret, but it can feel like it. I remain happy about my results to this day (going on six years later).

This is not you failing to maintain your mental health, but it can make you feel like a failure.

Things are not hopeless, but through the haze of this depression they can feel hopeless.

It can be terrifyingly sudden or it can sneak up on you. I didn’t even realize what was going on until after the depression finally passed and my mental health went back to normal.

I am writing this post because nobody told me about this before my top surgery. I was caught completely off guard. For my subsequent surgeries being aware has made all the difference. Being able to treat those symptoms as an expected and normal part of the healing journey has made them far easier to deal with. Because even when my emotions go to dark places I *know* they will pass. I have been able to tell the bad thoughts to take a bad seat and focus on healing.
