Gabriel @gabriel_true Welcome to the Feel Good Inc.

Sorry to hear about the financial difficulty. I'm not entirely sure how to interpret the "someone's gonna die" part outside of a figure of speech. If someone you know is about to pass away it truly is regretful that's happening. Seems many people are experiencing a tragedy in close proximity to each other. I appreciate you letting us know your circumstances and will keep that in mind, Yuu. Please be safe!

I wrote some music and did some art. I hope it's enough to peak your interest. I desperately need at least 8 more Patrons to survive the year. I mean that literally. Someone's gonna die and I'd rather it just be me at this point. Since I'm the dead weight. I'm the one that cannot support my own life. So I'm doing the last thing I can to make money. https://www.patreon.com/posts/patreon-song-and-121454849?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link

Gabriel @gabriel_true If I may, you mentioned needing 8 Patrons. Since you have tiers, are the 8 in reference to your $5 membership or the $50?
gabriel_true
Gabriel @gabriel_true I appreciate your honesty about what you're battling currently. Having come from a family where suicide was normalized through multiple relatives succeeding I don't take such means to an end lightly. I see you mentioned in your profile that you yourself have counseled those battling that condition, so you've no doubt experienced both sides of this dilemma. We both know how cruel and unkind the world we're living in can be. It most certainly isn't fair nor always kind. That said I know we share the same planet. The same plane of existence. We're even of a common age. I don't know exactly what living in your body and mind are and won't try to imagine for fear of belittling your current suffering. All I desire to do is provide a minute respite by offering genuine assistance. Admittedly I don't feel like even if 10 people joined at $50 a month that with the current market it would be very comfortable to live off of. Still I will see what can be done, You. Is there a way to offer more through Patron? I have not used it before, so I am not sure how that system works?
yuuzora
yuuzora @yuuzora Yeah, it really is the only way out unless I start making money from the last things I can do. To make matters worse, my brother, who is supposed to be paying me $30/month to drive him to and from work throughout the week(he also pays $60 in petrol a month), he has lowered his tier on Patron, so now I'm needing 10 more Patrons to make up for what I lost. I'll have to ask him tomorrow why he's stopped paying me the amount I was before. As for how my Patreon works, currently all tiers get stickers on their birthdays and Patron anniversary, early access to my manga and the light novel, and exclusive content and polls I don't post anywhere else. Which includes music and coupons for my online store, where I take requests for. It isn't much, but it's honest work and the only work I'm physically able to do. Especially since I don't have time for another job on top of the several things I already do to make money. Which includes taking care of my mother and driving my siblings and friend to and from work. I make under $200 a month from all sources, which is a pittance compared to how much I need to make in order to save anything to get out of here. Sorry to rant, it's just... it's a lot right now.
gabriel_true
Gabriel @gabriel_true I agree that's a small amount to live off of. I would hope that there are some other ways for you to make a living that didn't fully rely on speculative income. Hopefully you are maybe able to do remote work for a company. One that wasn't customer service driven. In any capacity, I will see what I can do to help. Please continue to work towards your goals no matter what challenges you face. You do matter greatly. Thanks for taking the time to talk with me about this, Yuu.
yuuzora
yuuzora @yuuzora Likewise. It isn't often I speak openly about this subject. I already drive 30 hours a week, my other MO friend convinced me I need to start charging my siblings and friends a solid rate for my driving them around. I know they pay the petrol, too, but they're bleeding me dry for everything I do for them comparatively. Even $10/month from all four of them will make a difference. I do have tenacity somewhere in my brain. It's just since the abuse is still so constant now, it warps my brain and I just want to escape. I won't give up... I at least have to get my oldest sister out. She makes wayyy more a month and could make it work for herself. So if only she'd be more selfish and just leave while she can. I keep telling her tiny house living isn't for everyone, anyway, so she could just get a cheap apartment. Anyway! Thank you for listening. It helps to say these things out loud so I can hear how stupid they sound/look in retrospect.

Gabriel @gabriel_true I'm waiting for my tax return to clear. Hopefully it doesn't get delayed. Once it does I'll look into signing up to your Patreon.
yuuzora
yuuzora @yuuzora Hn. I still haven't done my taxes yet. 1099s are a real pain in the arse. And thank you. I could use all the help I can get.
gabriel_true
Or better you do get the career and they require a different set of skills than what they asked for or just immediately down size after hiring.

Yo, what? They seriously went with Limp Bizkit for the DMC soundtrack when literal Run DMC was sitting right there! Come on man...missed opportunity! https://youtu.be/l-O5IHVhWj0?si=yOi18tPW89zNyJPg

The OP dropped and I am excited but the music is….something I didnt expect. https://youtu.be/ZtpIDJB79fg?si=bOQuibxD8lgGQY0W

jodokon @jodokon Fucking agreed, Limb Bizkit was just a kinda weird choice.

You joke, but I did that literally yesterday while making a run to pick up a trailer for work!

I hate this person and I like Weezer. So they can take those pork and beans and shove it straight up the hash pipe! However I agree I'm not a fan of any Office whether it's in the UK or the US or at my job site. I personally dislike offices period!
verucassault
Veru @verucassault There was a time when I would ask people if they liked Oasis just so I could crush them with the unbearable weight of my opinion on Oasis and how much I loathed them. It but then I would polished off the turd by saying, "...but it's cool you like them." It wasn't their music. I just really hated the lead singer. LOL
gabriel_true
Gabriel @gabriel_true Must be a Blur fan girl of you dislike Oasis.
verucassault
Veru @verucassault I do like Blur and Gorillaz more than Oasis.
