a fact about me i don’t think i’ve shared very often: my mom collects elephants. sculptures, plushies, candleholders, posters. she collects lots of things with elephants on them, such that there have been shelves of our homes dedicated to displaying them.

i did not know “my mom collects stuff” was a common social phenomenon

more people should tell me what their moms collect, i sincerely want to know

My mom collects santas and rooster items (and a pair of real roosters lol, she lovesss our chickens)

My mom collected angel figurines.

my mom collects snowmen, tiggers, koalas, daisies, and green glass

My grandmother collected elephants.
For my mother, its cows… (Yes, this includes actually owning cows. The highest she got up to was about 60)

We’re not asking for donations – this is a commission drive between my wife @asklaurastuff​ and I. Donations are welcome, but that’s not the primary focus.

We ran the numbers for a hotel and transportation locally, and it ran around $1400 after taxes, with about $100 leftover for food and incidentals. We’ve got four months to make this, as the con isn’t until June, but that doesn’t mean we won’t start immediately.

If you’re interested in a commission, hit us up here, on Deviantart, or even in streams. 

If you’d like one from my wife, her DA is http://noodlefreak88.deviantart.com/journal/Commissions-570317698 for commission prices and examples.

If you’d like one from me, it’s pretty much on a sliding PWYW scale with base tiers – $20 for a sketch, $40 for inks, $75 for full color work, with an additional fee for extra characters, more details being added to the piece the higher the amount. Busts or other such works are negotiable.

For examples of my work, including NSFW material, check out http://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/whisperz/ or http://aphexangel.deviantart.com

If you’d like to read the previous issue of Alembic Grimoire, one of the comics I’m planning on selling at the con, it can be found at http://aphexangel.deviantart.com/gallery/27943914/Alembic-Grimoire

^o^ We’re working our way to Anthrocon, please consider grabbing a commission or just get the word out there and reblog this post 😀

In 2010, college physics student
Austin Sendek started a petition that
requested the International System of
Units make 10^27 (1 octillion) a
‘hella’ meter. According to Sendek,
the diameter of the universe is
1.4 hellameters. Therefore, if the
petition hadn’t been rejected, the
Universe would officially be ‘hella big.’ Source Source 2 Source 3

Though his proposal was rejected, ‘hella’ has been adopted by certain websites, including Google Calculator.
