Well, that's kind of a lie. They never gave me a mug; I got it from my wife.
But to recap (those who don't watch my Twitter) I was fired/let-go from my job of 10 years today taking away the main source of income and only insurance for myself, my wife and our child. As such, over the next few weeks there will be some changes to the workload, as I take the time to finish up past due commissions and the Patreon rewards as well as reworking the Patreon site to possibly include tiers again that would give out different rewards. This also may lead to a reworking of my commission pricing, leading to higher prices for more complicated requests as well as lower prices for bust/½-character commissions.
Until I'm able to find full-time work again, I have to be the sole bread-winner, and Patreon and commissions being the only available income means I'll be taking the work and the payment much more seriously. Hopefully I'll be able to weather this until things improve, but I'm sure not taking any chances with the well being and future of my family on the line.
Regardless, keep an eye open for updates, and if you're able to spare $2 or so a month, subscribing to my Patreon does help. Thanks for reading the rant and good luck with the weekend.
That seems absolutely ridiculous. Honestly it shoudln't be a shock from the outside considering how bad the job market is but, damn. That just seems extra unfair to parents with a small child, too, and while I haven't interacted with you guys that much I can say between my interactions with you and how kind your wife was to me when my Diana died, yeah it really feels like a case of super bad things happening to good people.
Sadly I'm broke myself and out of work. But if I can ever find work you may just be the first patreon I support, and I'll be sure to get the word out to what few friends I have.
Seriously, that is an absolute shame. Here's hoping your decade of loyalty helps you secure something better soon.

I’m with this guy. I’m kinda in the same boat as you with the recent US Government shutdown happening, but if I can be of assistance, don’t hesitate to send a PM my way. I’ll help however I can.
