Delays in rewards and releases (Patreon)

Hi folks, just wanted to let you all know in case you weren't aware.
Los Angeles is currently experiencing a generational natural disaster in the form of various wildfires raging throughout the city. They've been going on for more than 48 hours now, exacerbated by the unprecedented high winds we had on Tuesday. They have caused some death and thousands of structures to be destroyed, including a huge portion of Malibu and the Pacific Palisades.
Most of the Dead Meat team is based in Los Angeles, and most of them are currently displaced. Nearly every employee here has had to evacuate their home. As of right now, all of them are safe and none of their homes have been destroyed. We hope that remains the case.
While Chelsea and I haven't evacuated our home / the Dead Meat office, we are very close to the largest fire, the Palisades. Thankfully, we're north of it, protected right now by the mountain/hills and the direction of the winds. Still, it is a situation that demands our constant attention and energy. Everyone in our house has been on edge and staying up until 6 or 7 in the morning monitoring things.
Because of these circumstances, expect delays for Dead Meat releases and Patreon rewards. The delays may continue for a few weeks, even if/when the fires are taken care of. We don't know what the aftermath is going to look like, and losing a few days of work will have knock-on effects for our schedule. To be frank, it's not a priority for us right now. Our concern is the safety and mental well-being of our team.
Thank you for understanding. Please keep our city in your thoughts. We love this stupid place and all the wonderful, flawed people who reside here. They don't deserve this.
