There is no such thing as small potatoes here; the $1 reward buys toast just as well as any other. :) Thank you so much for helping!

I'm on board with the Patreon thing since my sanity depends on a steady supply of quality new reading material, but while signing up I had a thought.

Have you considered having a public Amazon or other less ubiquitous online retailer wishlist? I was reading an article recently on the psychology of fundraising and it seems that people derive satisfaction from giving concrete things as opposed to abstractions like amounts of money. (Even though cash is often the most effective form of direct aid in many cases.) Just a thought.

I've got an Amazon wish list, and will provide the link to it a) when asked (so I'll say "if you're wondering what you can do to help, here's the Patreon, or you can request this list for housewarming gifts, and Ikea gift cards are VERY welcome"), and b) once I have a new address for things to be sent to. :) The last thing I need right now is more stuff to move.

OH SO VERY THIS

In completely related news, in case you're interested (and once you have time and energy, which I realize may not be for a while after moving) I now livein Seattle and would be happy to get together for food/gaming/hanging out/etc, share what local knowledge I've picked up, and so forth.

Wait, what? You're in Seattle now? How did I miss this? (Ok, never going to cons any more probably played s role. But still.)

Pledged! It's not much, but I am excited for this. Moving sucks, so you have my sympathies. But yes, IKEA is awesome. Most of my furniture is from there because when I moved to CA, what I could bring was what I could fit in my old Chrysler. I love my little green kitchen cart I got there too. Most useful impulse purchase I've gotten there. Hooray for Seattle! It's a great city. ^^
