OC-cember Day 6: OC Opinion (series)

OC Opinion is a series I came up with a couple days ago. Basically, what I do in this series is talk about an OC from another artist and give my personal opinions on it. If I am able to get the artists opinion on the OC or OCs themselves, that is.

Happy Pokemon Day!

Adolfo Kaminsky Dies at 97; His Forgeries Saved Thousands of Jews

His talent for creating realistic documents helped thousands escape deportation to concentration camps, and in many cases to flee Nazi-occupied territory.

At one point, Mr. Kaminsky was asked to produce 900 birth and baptismal certificates and ration cards for 300 Jewish children in institutional homes who were about to be rounded up. The aim was to deceive the Germans until the children could be smuggled out to rural families or convents, or to Switzerland and Spain. He was given three days to finish the assignment.

He toiled for two straight days, forcing himself to stay awake by telling himself: “In one hour I can make 30 blank documents. If I sleep for an hour 30 people will die.”

Mr. Kaminsky died on Monday at his home in Paris, his daughter Sarah Kaminsky said. He was 97.

🌻 a sunflower for everyone who is not feeling well today

This may be an unpopular opinion, but to all my fellow self shippers, I honestly think that your ships are way more valid than the canon/fanon pairings your f/os may be in either in canon or amongst the fandom. Imagine your f/o feels forced into those relationships when they only want to be with you and wished that their canon creators and/or their source material's fanbase could see that too. Especially if you've been invalidated for shipping with your f/o by some people in the fandom, your f/o can't stand that as it's true that you're the only one they'll ever want. They'll never in a million pick their canon s/o or any character the fandom pairs them with. They only want you. You're their one and only. Keep that in mind and don't let anyone tell you otherwise 💕

emergency commissions (a...gain)

So, my life is kind of falling apart and I am not okay, financially or otherwise. 

My furnace is no longer functional and I am currently living in a house with no heat in the winter, in an area where it routinely gets down to the 10s/20s Fahrenheit at night. I am also attempting to declutter, clean and pack up my childhood home in anticipation of selling it and moving into an apartment in the next few months. I feel so overwhelmed and frustrated. There’s a lot of sudden, horrifying, impossibly scary financial and mental burdens and I’m trying to do everything I can to meet them.

I’ve applied for state assistance for my furnace, but I’m not sure if I’ll be eligible. I have also applied to a charity organization for the furnance issue, though they can only donate so much to each individual who applies. I hope at least one of these options comes through. 

What I am trying to focus on right now is these two burdens: 

$300 apartment holding fee due January 11th to make sure I can get into my new apartment in a few months (Total fee is $500 but I can use $200 left in my savings.)

At least $200 in anticipation of the massive electric bill I’m going to have at the end of the month because of having to use a space heater to warm up one room for long periods of time to keep me and my cat safe while I try to work and/or pack.

So! If you were interesting in commissioning something, now is the perfect time. I love all sorts of prompts for commissions. If there’s a character from a fandom I write for that isn’t on my list, please feel free to hit me up with a commission request, in some cases I may be able to write that character since commissions have less restrictions than regular requests. 

Commissions are open! I have commissions starting at $5 for headcanons and $10 for 500-word fics, or $30 for 2000 word fics, as well as prices & options for something in between or even longer. If you are interested in a commission, please DM me (through the message system, not the inbox, as it’s best for conversations) with info to get started! 

I also have a Ko-Fi if you aren’t interested in a commission and might be able to help out! 

Note: Due to the nature of these life emergencies, please expect a turnaround time for commissions to be at least 1-3 weeks, depending on the length of the commission and complexity. I can provide an estimated finish date once I know more info about your commission. 

Sorry to post about emergency commissions so soon after the last time. I never understood the idea of “When it rains, it pours” in any genuine way until the last few weeks.

Thanks for taking the time to read! \o/
