Life Update -- what I've been doing (Patreon)

Heya, everyone!

Last you heard, I was busy moving out to a better apartment. It ended up getting more busy than planned, but for different reasons.

We'd been packing, cleaning and getting everything ready to move, when the realtors backtracked and decided not just to deny us the apartment for reasons unknown to us, but they've added a one year ban from applying to other places owned by them. They have a monopoly on buildings in this town, and I was born and raised here, so it's upsetting to say the least. Our current place is not fitted for us and our cats' well-being, or my work. But ever since last year when we had a lot of mishandled emergencies and I left a complaint, they've treated us with disdain.

I say their reasoning is unknown because they claim we violate their renters' policies, but we've thoroughly read through them and seen that we are in full compliance with those policies. On the phone we were told a litany of things that then turned out to be untrue. It's a giant mess of misinformation, discrimination and punishment, and let's just say morale has been low at our home.

We've been in contact with the renters' union we're members of, but unfortunately due to the laws in my country, realtors (whether private or company-based), are allowed to deny people based on arbitrary or no reasons without stating those reasons. If they don't personally like you, they're within their right to say no, and there's nothing we can do unless we suspect discrimination.

But whether we have a case or not, I've lost a lot of fight over the past few weeks. As you can tell, rewards are really late again. I'm always burned out, I work several jobs but nothing's enough. I still need financial support from family, even with you guys supporting me, and have no savings left. But like always, I will try to at least make the rewards as nice as possible for you so that it'll be worth the wait.

2025 and 2026 have been some of the hardest years for me. It's been challenging to stay positive and stick to my routines when everything keeps going wrong and people I'm meant to trust and rely on keep beating me down.

Right now, we're just going through the motions. One day at a time.

Anyway... I really value transparency when it comes to situations revolving money, so I thought I owed everyone an update. Those of you on Discord already know some of the situation, but I hadn't laid it all out for the rest of you until now.

I'm back to work again and hoping I can bring back some semblance of normalcy to my life. This new place was gonna add some well-needed stability that I guess we'll just have to hold on for.

And if you guys ever wonder anything about my process or what's going on behind the scenes, you can always reach out and I'll respond to the best of my ability.

Thank you all and apologies for the wall of text! 💜
