Description
April 23rd is FOP Awareness Day! FOP is a genetic condition that causes muscle to turn into bone, which causes joints to lock up and over time will cause immobility. There is currently no cure. Through the month of April, people are encouraged to show themselves wearing silly socks to spread awareness! Here's our very good boy Ralph, in some Fun Bun socks, for the cause.To learn more about FOP, or to donate, please check out www.ifopa.org
Also for a short amount of time, I'm offering "footpaw" sketches for folks who donate $5 or more to FOP research, on my Twitter:

Thank you for reading!!

OF COURSE THE FUN BUN SOCKS
But seriously, before reading your posts, I have no idea such a condition exists. When I first heard that it turns muscle into bone, I honestly thought it was a joke! But really, this really is a serious condition, no joke about it. And although I don't think I can donate anything to the organization regarding this, the least I can do is to show my awareness to this condition.

Of course! I wasn't sure what kind of socks to put on him, and finally...it came to me. FUN BUN.
I didn't know about this condition either, until I found out two artists in the community have it, and they often try to raise awareness for it. I thought I'd help, since April is the month for it, and yesterday was the specific day for it! I got a few donations on Twitter, and also gave some myself (I kind of commissioned myself, haha, I wanted to draw Felix's footpaws ), so!!! I mean! It's better than nothing (although I was hoping more furries would be interested in the footpaw sketches, aw well!)

You should add a few more pancakes next time!!!
Yeah, I saw that on Twitter, and judging from the amount of feet you drew you must have made quite a number of donations. Maybe it's because I don't live in a very large city, so rare conditions like these are neglected because there are so few of them.
And maybe next time just draw people wearing funny socks, instead of the furry ones. XD

OH TRUE lol, I was being lazy and just did the bunny!
Maybe?! But I feel like people think human feet are creepy (and I'm inclined to agree! )

Nah, it's just a thought: some people I found thought you were drawing Hello Kitty or something else, so pancakes will be a bit less misleading.
But yeah, just the bunny is pretty much enough for the Wrecklings to know who you're drawing. XDXD
LOL! Sometimes it's the case!!!!
But maybe it's because this suggestion of drawing human feet is something from a gal who is okay at drawing humans but throws her pen in rage when she attempts to draw furries or animals.

/SCREECHES BACK!/ of course! I only wish I had attracted more footpaw customers. D; Furries are supposedly huge into charity, and also footpaws. Where y'all at?

I’m not sure either, furs should be all over it D: I reckon FOP isn’t trendy enough or affecting the right people. They’ll jump all over someone’s birb or rat gofundme, or ‘emergency’ rent, but not charity.

Yeah...well, that, and...I don't have many followers, or much reach. I know it's my own fault because I draw what I want now, instead of what I think people want to see, but, that has its drawbacks.

Oh I agree!!! But it can lead to less followers and attention, which can hurt charity causes later on down the road. It's a balancing act. D;
I've never really drawn popular things to get attention, but when my favorite thing happens to BE a popular thing (it happened with Kingdom Hearts, The World Ends with You, and My Little Pony), well, magic happens. And then when you draw nothing but Fatal Frame, Ghostbusters, and Wreck-it Ralph for 3 years....well, magic still happens, but it's more of a POOF where did everybody go? type thing. xD
