We'll also be able to use this money for any consulting work that we need to do- especially speaking with more marginalized folks who can't contribute to the project because of time and money but whose voices really need to be heard.
Remember that we're perfectly able to stay afloat without your direct support- this is a means for us to help pay the people helping develop this platform who can really use the money.
In case it's not apparent, I won't be taking any of these funds personally unless I become unemployed.
I'm switching jobs in the next week and I'm not hurting for money so I'll be fine.
Part of the Patreon updates will include where the money is going each month so that you all will have full transparency on that.
