Changes regarding Requests + Update (Patreon)
Content
Hey guys!
So, I haven't been doing too well lately. I've been taking measures for a while to deal with my conditions, but so far it hasn't been enough. I'm considering going back on meds, but side effects have been holding me back a bit, so I'm not entirely sure yet.
Up until now, I've been running on hyperfocus (which is totally okay, btw), but sadly it's starting to burn out. I love my job and still enjoy making videos, but working on requests has become taxing and meaningless to me. I can't help but feel like the quality has decreased as exhaustion has taken a toll on my cognitive skills. Mistakes keep piling up, and I feel like I'm just mass-producing the same content for a price that doesn't reflect the actual work behind it (nor does it line up with market standards).
I want to be completely honest with you all since I know so many of you have been supporting my work for so long. I also know some people are only here for the chance to request. But this is a change that needs to happen so I can keep creating in the long run.
Right now, I've finished scheduling all requests (up to today, 10/05/2026), which goes up to number 20 on the Alpha waiting list and number 25 on the Fated Mates list (these numbers only count for submissions made through the Google Form implemented back in July). For those who have yet to submit their requests, you’ll be scheduled for January onwards—and that only applies to October payments (specifically: october 29, which is the last member's payment date)
I know the wait time is long, and honestly, the amount of backlogged work is overwhelming. Because of this, starting in December, I will no longer accept any more Alpha request submissions.
You can choose to downgrade your membership to Rebel or stay in Alpha for the Sunday updates, but request benefits will no longer be included. Whatever option you choose, I completely understand! All pending videos will be delivered regardless, so please don't let that sway your decision.
Plans for the future: I plan to open commissions again next year under a different system (no longer through Tiers) with limited slots per month.
I'm hoping this change helps me free up some time to prioritize my mental and physical health. As of right now, I'm already working with specialists, so please don't worry about me. I'm not collapsing, and I'm doing everything I can to stay well! It's simply that my brain chemistry has changed in the recent month, lol.
TL;DR: I’m burnt out, and managing current tier-based requests is no longer sustainable for my health or content quality. Starting in December, Alpha tier request benefits are being retired (though all current/pending requests will still be fulfilled!). You can downgrade to Rebel or stay for Sunday updates. I’ll be switching to a limited-slot commission system next year. Taking care of myself, so no worries—just rebalancing!
