Just Checking In... (Patreon)

Hey Patrons,

I, Sean, wrote this into our latest Agatha drop, but wanted to send this to everyone.

As we imagine you might be, we're a bit shell-shocked over here, what with our country's Thanos winning the election last night.

Our reactions and what we do over here can offer a bit of an escape and we're happy to provide it, however, even standing as cynical as we are at this moment, like a lot characters in the stories that resonate, there's reason for despair but not for giving up.

Which we will never do.

Right now, focus on simple things.

Take a walk without your phone.

Start a new book.

Get some chores done you've been putting off.

Listen to some comfort music or an old movie.

Visit friends.

Take your care of yourself and of those around you.

Rest. Grieve. Make sure you and your people are good.

And then we start again and work to protect those that they mean to harm.

I (Sean) will be on Discord throughout the day so reach out if you're connected through there don't hesitate to message us here.
