Hi

Soo.. I created a Patreon Page.

I'm not sure what to put as benefits as I give everything away for free.

I know some of you are doing it tough as well, so I don't really expect
anyone will sign up, but I need to try. Things are a probably going to
be even tighter here as my wife may be losing hours next year, we'll
manage I am sure, but I want to try and do something to contribute a bit
more.

Even though I'm setting this page up, if no one signs up I'll still be
working on what I work on.

As we are all poor students here (Yeah I'm back in school myself now
and not working) and not working things are tighter then they have
ever been.

I'd love to sign up, and I will when school is done or I'm working
again whatever comes first. Currently living on credit cards which is
a stupid thing to do but rent is criminal in this area.

Yep totally understand.

Yeah, rent isn't as bad here as it is on the coast or in the city, but
it still isn't great, and it keeps going up I don't really understand
how they can justify it, and it's getting to the point we could rent
somewhere better for the same price or even less - but I guess once
we're there they'll start upping the price too. Banking on the hassle of
moving I think.

If you want to sign up when you can, that's cool - but don't feel
pressured, you've contributed heaps with your testing etc. Every one
has, and I feel guilty putting the page up to be honest.

Warm fuzzies for supporting you? ;)

Hmm, have to keep it in mind. Now's not a good time with a period of uncertain finances ahead and the rest of my summer program to pay for, but things should settle down early in 2020. Once the cashflow crunch is out of the way, I should be able to throw something in. :)


... I have closed my consciousness to all further discussions on that.

We can't move. They can only raise our rent 6% a year so while we pay
$1450 a month utilities are included. If we moved out and back into
the same apartment it's currently renting for $1775 PLUS utilities.

To rent a house in this city in a bad neighbourhood $2100 a month plus
utilities. Hell when I seperated a couple years back I was paying
$800 a month to rent a room and I was happy to have it.

Don't feel guilty. You deserve something for all the work you put
into the hobby.

I'll put something in there at some point. I'm not working at the moment
or I'd do it now.

Hopefully I'll be back to work soon.
