Deafeningengineerfestival-blog - One Dat At A Time

hi! i’m birdy, and i’m a young nonbinary disabled person. my health doesn’t permit me to hold a full time job, but i still have bills to pay! i’ve decided to offer up my art in hopes that i can cover the expenses of my car and eventually start up making and selling my costuming work. if you like what i do, you can help me out!

these are three examples of what i can do- still images, or ones with animated colors! i can also use different colors and textures in the image, it’s whatever suits you, and i can work out almost anything you’d like!

prices are as follows:

$12 for a still picture of one person (as shown on the top left and bottom)

+ $3 per additional person in the photo

+ $2 for moving colors/backgrounds (as shown on the top right)

+ $2 and i will email you the psd file of your image so you can play with it as you like - but you must leave my signature intact!

special deal: two separate still portraits for $20 altogether, and bonuses can be added on for the same prices!

ideas of things i could poppify for you: your selfies, your pets, you and/or a friend in cosplay, your significant other, heck, i’ll even do celebrities if that floats your boat! things i won’t do: nudes. that’s about it.

if you’re interested, message me here on tumblr! my paypal address is auxbirdy@gmail.com. my turnaround time on these is typically 1-3 days, and i promise i’ll get you your image as fast as i can!

if you like my work but can’t afford it, please reblog! i’d like to reach as wide an audience as possible. if you’re feeling kind, i also have a donate button on my blog. any amount really helps! thank you so much!!!

Millions of bees are dying off, with alarming consequences for our environment and our food supply. We rely on bees to pollinate everything from almonds to strawberries to the alfalfa used to feed dairy cows. What happens if the bees disappear? It’s simple: No bees, no food. Believe it or not, you have a bee to thank for every one in three bites of food you eat.

Scientists know that bees are dying from a variety of factors—pesticides, drought, habitat destruction, nutrition deficit, air pollution, global warming and more. Many of these causes are interrelated. The bottom line is that we know humans are largely responsible for the two most prominent causes: pesticides and habitat loss. (Source & Source)

I remember seeing this short film a long time ago. Basically, this little machine sees a television with a pretty doll face. She wants to be just like what she sees on t.v, and changes her appearance. The standards get higher and higher (literally), but she tries earnestly.

You can see what happens in the end.This video leaves a powerful message about how our standards of beauty are too high and soon it becomes out of reach.

As one of the comments of the video says

“She was original but she died a copy.”

Truly a bold move to name a gem after a political scandal, but this isn’t the first time local politics has been referenced in Steven Universe - the first was Malachite’s tiny, tiny hands.

I’ll let you decide who that was based on.
