(EDIT: I am trans...pls use they/them, it/its, or yeen when referring to me!! Thank you. ^^; )

Hi, my name's Eliza, I have stage 3b breast cancer. I've come a long way, had a partial mastecomy and some lymph nodes removed, but my cancer is still really aggressive and scary. I have another hurdle coming up that is going to strain me and my family a lot since we're really poor... and that's radiation therapy.

My radiation therapy apps are going to be 5 days a week (mon-fri), for 4-5 weeks. The only place I can be seen is 1hr 15mins away...so that's a 2+ hour drive, every single day for weeks. We just can't afford the gas money for that, we're barely scrapping by as is...

I hate that I have to ask for help again, but I'm terrified and don't want to die. So I'm offering REALLY cheap commissions! (Details below the divider.)

My cashapp is: $CANNIJU98 My Kofi is: https://ko-fi.com/eliza_the_hunted (My kofi also has some proof of my cancer, in case you want that.)

Any amount donated is super appreciated (if you can't afford a commission.) COMMISSION INFO BELOW!

FOR JUST $15 I WILL DRAW YOU SOMETHING SUPER CUTE!!

All I ask is you please be patient, my work-around due to having treatments (and side-effects, yuck), is gonna be 1-2 months.

Once I receive payment, I will give you my discord so we can keep in touch! I will show you a sketch, which you can approve or ask for changes, and then once it's approved I will finish it!

I CANNOT DRAW HUMANS, MECHS, OR ANYTHING TOO COMPLICATED. Please keep it simple! Sorry!

EXAMPLES:

Again, please reblog if you can't help, not to be dramatic but I really don't wanna die, and I've seen people get lots of help for less serious issues. TwT I'm terrified and need all the help I can get.

Thank you!

i am supposed to have the energy… to do stuff...?

HOly fucking SHIT-

Guys I just had a complete Shellstrop style “holy motherforking shirt balls” moment at work about Donnie’s unusual speaking patterns. You know, when he does this:

This tendency to narrate his actions in the third person or verbally say onomatopoeias in place of the sound is uh… well it’s autistic right? Look it features in literally every compilation but no one knows why other than “vibes, sometimes it just be like that 🤷”

But NO. No it NOT be like that. I finally know what this fucking nerd is doing, hear me out…

… he’s scripting.

Think about it. You know what else describes action, emotion, and sound in purely words? Books. He has these little speaking quirks, yah, but if you actually zoom out and see the whole picture, Donnie talks like he’s a narrator. This makes a SHIT ton of sense considering we already have textual evidence that he engages in scripting behavior (more specifically some possible echolalia. See: saying “New York! What a Town!” in any situation something kind of abnormal happens after he hears Splinter say it with the exact same infections and everything.)

And we also know from the mystic library that Donnie actively seeks out and enjoys reading. So it stands to reason an autistic 14 year old who likes to be left alone to work on complex machines a decent amount and takes pride in his intellect would model the way he communicates off of written media as opposed to tv or his brothers. He could fill his social tool box with lines from Jupiter Jones and Lou Jitsu movies, but he may think it would give him less of a chance to properly express his capabilities.

Books are also the only form of media that can literally just tell you flat out what a character’s expression or emotion is supposed to be without it being awkward, which would be really appealing for Donnie. What solidifies this for me is the fact that at least once he verbally says “sad face emoji”, which could not have come from a novel or textbook. But we often do flagrantly use emoticons as tone indicators, and Donnie is constantly on his phone.

I think he’s definitely aware that this is not a regular way of communicating, but he’s clearly also self aware of his issues in getting his emotional meaning across and receiving input back. So it stands to reason he would accommodate this in a way that, yes, makes him sound odd, but is at least effective.

Now for my final little “I’ve connected the dots. I’ve connected them” moment, I headcannon that Donnie learned to read before he fully got the hang of speech. Aside from… literally everything I just said, he uses sign language to tell the squirrels to blow up his treehouse in that one episode. But he does the sign for “make” a bit incorrectly (there should be a slight twist in his upper fist), which leads me to believe he was probably taught baby sign out of necessity rather than being fully proficient in asl. This is fairly common for autistic children with speech delays.

Actually it’s called ‘Don’t Hug Me I’m Scared’ because all three leads are Extremely Autistic in very different ways but the one common factor is that stressful situations increase their Touch-Averseness
