My condolences about your father's passing :(

i appreciate it, thank u man 🖤 it's rough but it is what it is.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my mother a while back and absolutely understand how it is. Hugs to you and yours

i'm in a terrible financial position right now myself but next paycheck i'd be glad to throw some money your way! i understand how it can be. does RoB kofi go towards you as well or only riddle?

could potentially open a ko-fi yourself for pay what you want style commissions, that way you don't feel like you need to find the time or the mental spoons to pump out nothing but super high effort content, charge the lowest tier as like a loose doodle or whatever. But personally i always found YCH a great way to go, avoid burnout by still drawing what you please but get paid for it.

but i wouldn't turn up the nose at something like gofundme.. if friends who are currently a little better off want to support you and don't care if they get anything in return there's no harm in getting a little scratch that way, and you could always do something for them later at your own time without the mental pressure if doing it with a quicker turnaround time like you'd get with commissions

stay safe, healthy, and happy fae <3 --diaktoros

I'm sorry to hear, sorry for your own loss too, it's a fucking rough moment to be in so solemn handshakes.

Don't be obliged at all, always help urself first. Kofi goes to riddle, I usually only get paid for the events

Pat what you want is a decent idea...I hadn't considered that. I could definitely think about that and see how I'd want to do it. I definitely wouldn't mind that and of course trying a YCH maybe. I'll see if I can come up with anything for either, ty for the ideas

I just hate the idea of taking money for nothing, especially when everyone's got it hard, so I'd rather give a service in turn. I also don't really have any friends who aren't in the shit with their own things so I would hate to go asking, it wouldn't be right. But I appreciate the thought, you're not the first person to suggest opening a Kofi or something anyway so I'm definitely forced to think about it a bit
