So, I was laid off by my job this week after 13 years.
Not only that, but it happened as bills from my recent heart attack-related medical visits come due.
Because of that, I'm doing a big sale for SKTCHD/Off Panel related things, so now's a good time to subscribe if you can...because I need it!

People have long asked how they could support what I do more, like through a tip jar of a sort. That's never been necessary — but it is now. So, I opened up a Ko-Fi for the work that I do. Want to send a tip my way? You now can!
