I'm thankful for what I have, and I live in terror of losing it, partly cos we need housing for me to stay this level of unwell.

I'm not great at advertising us, but we really do need support. It makes a huge difference for us, four #disabled queers tryin our best

And yah everything you see from us? It's with also the collective helping me for basic living and the work I do is entirely from my bed

You should rest when you're ill, no matter how "no big deal" it seems. Wear a mask and avoid getting ill like your life depends on it, because it does.

I've been sick for over two decades, more than half my life, and I wish I had ever gotten to live more than this unlife

This year I am soooo fucking lucky that my brain works a bit more. Sometimes I can work an hour a day, tho not too many days in a row...

A shower can still knock me out for weeks. A vaccine well... if only the bills would stop for the two months I need 100% care from fellow collective members. So I dont get them.

Even tho I'm not as sick, I'm still mostly bedbound. I still need help to get food, water, shower, etc.

its #MEAwarenessDay! 🧵

Lets say that the day is actually about centering the people, the actual ME'ers lol

I have severe ME, and I've had it even worse than I do now! Days where I couldn't swallow or speak or cry, filled with constant pain.

Two years ago I barely managed to make this mini zine: aldercone.itch.io/help-me-zine

Last year I couldn't even make a post.

Emergency Art Commission Request!! Please boost!

I WANT TO MAKE ART FOR YOU!

I set up a discount for my art commissions - they’re usually $25, and they’re 20% off if you follow this link or use the code SaveBetsy on my Ko-Fi commission order page

ko-fi.com/lukeorion/link/SAVEB

For the last half of April, I ran a 25% discount because we were starting to reach another crisis point. Unfortunately, we haven’t raised enough to get the RV engine repaired, and this morning, we used the last of our cash to be able to stay at the RV park for tonight. Every bit helps here.

I’d appreciate any support, and some of my art is included as examples. This second link contains my other socials, my music & merch, my partner @magicalgrrrl music and merch, my Ko-Fi, our fundraiser (where you can get even more context), and more.

Pixelfed crashed when I tried to post a comic and now I am too tired to post it again because the ALT text takes me forever to write. (Sailing between the app and my gallery over and over because my memory sucks and I can only remember half a sentence before it evaporates from my brain)

So uh...read my comic in Tapastic?

EMERGENCY ART COMMISSIONS!!
Hey everyone, we have fallen way behind with getting the necessary things taken care of to safely live RV life.
In order to help us get the $350 needed today (to keep our spot at the RV park another week, so we have a way to connect, and safely park at night), my art is 20% off until further notice.
ko-fi.com/lukeorion/link/SAVEB
Here is the discount link. 
And please, take a few moments to share our fundraiser onto social media. We are still quite a ways from repairing the RV, then we need to sort out off-the-grid power, and get a small car to run errands and do food delivery with. If you see my face on tiktok, please don't ignore me. I'm not directly asking for money on there because I'm not comfortable doing so; I push my music and art because that's what I can do.
fundrazr.com/52Y7d9
Fingers crossed, hoping we can pay the RV park within the next few hours. If you decide to send even a few bucks (NOT to the fundraiser) that will go towards the urgent $350 goal this morning. Thank you.

‼️EMERGENCY ART COMMISSIONS OPEN‼️

I’m holding a 20% off sale on my digital art until further notice:

ko-fi.com/lukeorion/link/SAVEB

For a bit of context, this is meant to support my partner @magicalgrrrl , our two cats, and I, who recently overcame homelessness by getting a secondhand RV.
We are a disabled couple, struggling to not only get the basic needs met, but are also in dire need of RV repairs. The RV has been having engine problems, putting us in danger by leading to stalling in the middle of braking and turning.
This sale will also support our equivalent of rent; staying at an RV park so we have electricity. We hope to get repairs done to our generator, or replace it if necessary, as well as investing in a solar panel system, to eventually weed out the cost of RV parks.

May Mutual Aid. Goes towards bills, medical, personal care, and June rent. If you want to just support a disabled Native artist share or donate. Also have my etsy where I sell my art.
