A Humble Request (Patreon)

Hey folks, this post is one that's uncomfortable for me to make but it's quite important to talk about. I'm aware that someone or some people has/have been uploading my patreon content onto other sites, including 4chan request boards, and especially things from this month.

I try not to talk about my personal situation on here too often because I'd like it to be about the art, but between rent, student loan payments, bills and food/utilities, things are financially difficult for me basically every month; it's something I stress about every single day.

Despite that, I decided to make the support number for access to everything I post just $3 because I know other people have financial troubles too, but still want to support me, and I didn't want to gate my content based on how much money someone can spare, but rather that they're willing to support me at all.

But reposting my patreon content doesn't help me, it doesn't make my life any easier. I sincerely spend a lot of time and effort trying to make things I hope you all will like because it makes my life easier to have your support, but reposting my work makes things harder for me.

It's not the same as pirating content from a corporation that will carry on despite the piracy, I'm just a person, and I very literally don't know how much I'll be able to spend on food for the month until the pledges are done being collected, it's a precarious and frightening place to be.

So, my humble request is that you not upload my patreon content to other sites, and if you see people asking for this content, instead, let them know that it's just $3 for access to every thing, and that these pictures are made as a thank you for supporting me, and helping me to continue to work. Thanks for your time.
