Thank You, Folks! (Group Chat & Discord) (Patreon)

TLDR Version: Thank you for being a patron! There's a new group chat if anyone's interested in joining in on that, as well as a new Discord. :) Also, if my uploads have been popping up as "push" notifications I do apologize, I was unaware all my posts were set to a notification setting. I will be more mindful of that moving forward. I find that kind of thing annoying myself, so sorry about that! I am a noob at this, after all ;)

Long-Winded Version: I wanted to say thank you for joining the patreon, all! It means a lot that anyone even watches the videos, but for ya'll to genuinely enjoy them enough to want to support the channel? That's incredible and so encouraging. Thank you <3

I've kind of been racking my brain for more features to offer on the patreon, but I'm not sure what I can offer that I can reasonably deliver during the occasions when my autoimmune disease acts up and I get pretty sick for days to weeks. I'm uncomfortable making commitments I'm uncertain I can deliver on, particularly when there's money involved. I'd hate for someone to sign up for a specific benefit I end up not delivering, especially if it's due to my illness. I pride myself on being someone who follows through on their commitments, and it just sucks when my disease prevents me from doing that.

But enough of my medical trauma :D

The group chat feature should be available to all paid patrons. I wanted to open it up to the free tier as well, but that doesn't appear to be an option. I mention this because I don't want this interpreted as, "Oh, so we have to pay to even speak to her?" I assure you that's not the point :D People of the free tier, I still appreciate you, and I am certainly not intending to exclude you. My hands are tied on this one. The Discord is available to everyone, however.

If anyone has any suggestions about possible patreon benefits I could offer, please share them. All right, I've babbled enough! Thanks again, and take care <3
