Hey yall, life update time. I'm gonna be real with you - I'm really struggling, and could use some help 💔

an image of a sad looking pony carrying lots of literal baggage represented with labeled moving boxes. It is captioned with "I need help"

an image featuring the following text:
I don't know how else to start this; for the past couple of months, things have gotten pretty dire. I need help.

My fiancé and I need to move from California to New Jersey within the next month - My fiancé’s family has graciously offered to let us stay with them in NJ while we recover and look for new housing. The apartment we’re in is awful, and the cost of living expenses are bleeding us dry. And although I love my roommates, this living situation just isn’t working anymore and my fiancé and I very much need our own space to work. Vending at conventions has become my full time job, and due to the scale that I’m working at now, I also need to move to a part of the country with more drivable conventions and more affordable living options.

We were expecting things to go smoothly leading up to our move - things were going well! We made plans to begin this move months ago, and were ready to get the ball rolling. Then shit hit the fan.

In the past two months:
- I got scammed by an event I invested hundreds in
- I made half of what I usually make at what is (well, was) my most reliable convention
- my mom got diagnosed with cancer
- my third "permanent" dental crown suddenly broke, and it has to be extracted. This is not the first time this has happened, and it has now restarted the extensive - and expensive - dental work that I thought was long behind me. You can see everything that took place in a previous GoFundMe that I had.

an image featuring the following text and a QR code:
Emotionally and financially, I am exhausted. I haven’t felt this drained in years.

I'm trying to secure loans to help fund the move, but so far I haven't had much luck. So… here I am asking for help.

If you've enjoyed my work, please consider commissioning me, grabbing a goodie from my shop, or tossing a buck to the GoFundMe through the QR code shared below. I'm afraid to ask for help, but I'm in genuine need, and every cent will go towards getting me back on my feet. If you've enjoyed my art over the years, I humbly ask for any support you can provide. I will do my best to pay it forward by continuing to draw for you guys and entertain at the various conventions I attend.

I appreciate every single person who’s spent their time with me and my artwork, and want to keep sharing that with the world. Thank you for taking the time to read this <3

Soooo something big may have happened on my visit to Disneyland today... @coledonnerstag.bsky.social and I are now engaged!! 💖

Today is my wonderful partner @coledonnerstag.bsky.social's birthday (and our one year anniversary!), so I made this wood burned replica of the sign from The Wild Robot. It's a movie that means a lot to both of us, and I hope I did the great artwork from the film justice 💚

They are drawn in a silly and chunky way. The text on the top says 'button up shirt, 100% cotton, all over print, silly smiley face'.

Here's what it looks like with text! I'm not the best at typography, so I'm glad Cole already had a banger logo at the ready haha And yes, you're reading that correctly... volume 1! I will have more volumes to illustrate in due time ;) #mlp #mlpoc

A digital illustration of a cyan alicorn named Memoria with a rainbow etherial mane. She is floating in a space-like dreamscape and looking up. Her horn is touching a dark reflection of her own, bright sparkle emerging from the point where the horns meet. This version of the illustration is a book cover with text that says "Cole Donnerstag, The Journey Once More Volume 1"
