Your Money Update #8

$112.84 of your Patreon donations went toward Patreons' various fees.

$124.60 of Users' more generous Patreon donations went to pay for one fucking t-shirt thanks to an error on Patreon's part. Thankfully they discovered it and refunded me approximately $100 about a week later. As a reaction I unpublished all my merch tiers until further notice. Thanks to my best subscribers for donating these larger amounts.

I calculated out my budget for the end of the year and as of 7/1/2022 I am responsible for $1,192.00 in taxes on my income. Of course this income must also be reported to the government entitlements I benefit from and it's possible I could lose them. If that happens things will get very dark very fast. For these reasons I have been forced to cut back on my subscriptions to the modders in my list.

$15.00 of your Patreon donations went to support aceanimations, almost single-handedly keeping the O series alive. Thanks to him for his dedication. If you donate to only one other person from this list, it should be him.

$13.00 of your Patreon donations went to AliceMods, diligently converting SexLab anims for OStim so we don't have to. It is painstaking work. Scrab, seemingly the most technically adept hornymodder, is also in this tier, diligently working on Yamete.

$10.00 of your Patreon donations went to powerofthree, who really need no introduction, but is better known for the Papyrus Extender and countless QoL mods.  

$5.00 of your Patreon donations went to support Kreiste, creator of the HIMBO mod, and Tyro, creator of my third museum who despises Nexus Collections but generously allowed me to use his mods in my list.

I am not going to lie to you. I started smoking again in a moment of weakness and spent $87.76 on nicotine vape juice to keep me from spiraling ever downward. Read my blog at https://cacophony.me if you want to hear the full sad tale but I suppose there really is no excuse.

The electric bill is about the same, at $226.00, but the Internet went up by about $40 due to the end of their bullshit promotional periods so that bill was $136.44.  

That left $59.76 which partly went to my and my Aunt's combined mobile bill of $107.08.

I am doing a long term playtest of my list and hope to complete the main storyline sometime this or next month. The next big update will have to wait until then and I am continuing work on it in a second instance of the list. I'll keep you posted, mainly on Discord.
