Friendly reminder that when you ask your mechanic to top off your fluids during an oil change (especially your coolant) they might not be.
I nearly had my car get fucked because I trusted my mechanics to top off my coolant or at least let me know if it was looking low, because I always SPECIFICALLY ASK THEM to do so.
As the cool season crept in I noticed my heat wasn't working. My car's heating system relies on coolant to move things along. I checked under the hood and sure enough it was almost bone dry.
That bitch was THORSTY!
My car takes a very specific type of coolant so I was able to buy it (prediluted) for $17 instead of the $70 to have the mechanic just LOOK.
LEARN THE BASICS OF YOUR CAR AND DON'T GET SCREWED OVER. Learning where your coolant reservoir is, your oil dipstick and what it should look like could save you from getting a cracked engine block from overheating.
NEVER PUT COOLANT IN YOUR CAR WHILE IT'S HOT. If you can't touch the top of your engine block, don't put coolant in yet. I just chilled in my car on my phone for 2 hours (thanks TikTok & Tumblr).

a few of these examples are in a traditional medium, but the images will be done and delivered digitally as a .png either through email or discord.
not willing to do: children, lizard-folk/scalies, mecha/machinery, avians willing to do: humanoids ( humans, elves, tieflings, people-with-vague-animal-features, etc), furries, adults

I've been trying to get this around as much as possible, but idk exactly how well things will go tbh. We have been having car troubles lately and needed to get some required fixes so our household can actually go to work and get groceries and do what we need to do to get by. While we've gotten some repairs done we are in desperate need of money to finish said repairs, and even then we are gonna be left in a very tight money situation once that's done, one that's got us all scared about how much we'll be able to do with rent and food, let alone our medications. Any help would be appreciated, whether donating or even just sharing it around.

Our car is in the shop ✨ Donations Welcome
She's an old and battered thing, and we love her for all her weird quirks and unpretty features.
Unfortunately though some of these problems are legit dangerous and need to be fixed sooner than later (and a little sooner than we were prepared for, as it turns out.) The bill is a lot bigger than I was expecting, but the maintenance needs to be done. The only thing more expensive than these fixes is another car.
Listen folks, it's just been Holiday Season and I know everyone's money is super tight right now - so please do not give away any money that you need to keep yourself alive. No one reading is obligated to prove they like me by sending me money, and I want you to know that reblogs are perfect on their own!
Where you can donate!:
CashApp
Ko-Fi
Paypal Me
I'd also be willing to offer lil Kindred portraits as a sign of my gratitude for those who are capable of donating here!!

gonna take my car to the vet tomorrow. hopefully the whole transmission isn’t about to blow, and they can just flush it and add new fluid so it stops overheating, or whatever the issue is

I can't believe this day is here and it's so surreal! Baby definitely needs a wash but still looks so good with the windshield and back glass in her. I am beyond excited about it and I can't wait to see how beautiful we can make her. 😎🔥😍🥰🤗

Wow, I have not been active on this site in ages. And this is not really the post I want to be making for a return over here, but I need help, pretty urgently. Over the last weekend, the transmission on my car blew. It is unfortunately unrepairable, and needs to be entirely replaced. I’m limited in time, and need to somehow get the money together for it within a week, and as it stands, there’s no way I can afford it on my own. So I’ve made a GoFundMe, with hope that I can get enough reach to pull this off in time before it costs me even more money that I do not have. Any help is greatly appreciated, whether it’s a donation or a share, and I thank you in advance for the help 🖤🖤🖤
