Well guys today is my last day working my normal job and going forward I will be focusing full-time on content creation!
This will mean a few changes. The first big one will be announced in the Dave Chapelle video, of which you will get an extended version hopefully by tomorrow night. Once this change occurs, it will signal some coming minor changes to the Patreon.
I am infinitely grateful to all of you for your support thus far. It's the reason why I am where I am right now. It's still surreal to think that I am going to be able to do this full time and I cannot thank you enough. That said, I want to do the thing I think most of you want most, which is make good content, and to do that I have to make efforts to keep my mental health on the up and not overtax myself. No shade to other content creators who have much more output... but I just can't do it like some of them lol! I am realizing that I need to create a little more distance between myself and the community growing around my work in order to make the creative process less taxing on me.
All this to say that there will be some changes in the rewards for different patron levels. Early content will not go away (in fact you can expect it to be more consistent going forward!) but I will not be creating or participating in a discord, nor will I be making any blogs going forward. There will always be the opportunity for supplemental content when possible. Also, merch may be coming down the pipeline! I'm also open to other ideas on what else to include on the Patreon to make it more worth your while.
My goal is to expand my content as a whole as well. I am working out doing a podcast and probably some tik tok silliness even, we'll see! All that said, let me get back to editing this Chapelle video.
Thank you all so much!
