Currently at Β£340/Β£1000 If anyone can continue to share and support that would be amazing. This has been such a horrible, hard week and we're struggling to cope ko-fi.com/goblinbuns/g...

Goal for this month reset. Slightly better off this month as my wages are back to normal Between our combined illness and a few emergencies, the last month has been rough (and that's putting it mildly) 🧡 ko-fi.com/goblinbuns/g...

Rune's nana passed away today. I'm struggling with my mental health andhad a major break at the weekend. We can't afford to pay all our bills, let alone food. It's bleak. But if everyone who followed me gave Β£1, we'd be set for the year. It's Rune's birthday next week too. Please help.

Please share and help if you can. I can't work at all right now and we really need assistance making ends meet. Thank you.

I walked a two mile round trip (with my baby sister in a pushchair) to buy Baldur's Gate when we first got a PC. KotOR was my comfort game for years. It just sucks to see.

I'm still here. Things are really hard. I'm being looked after, but it's really hard not to spiral when every day is just existing in soul sucking misery. It's really hard to find distractions when you're struggling to survive.

So, quick update. Had a mental health crisis on Sunday. Would almost certainly have taken my own life if there hadn't been someone there to stop me. I'm not in any immediate danger right now, but things are bad, they've been bad for a while and I don't know how they're going to get any better.

Without going into too much detail, we're traveling to Hull because of this, and we're going to be occupied all weekend. If you could keep sharing and help if you can, that'd be appreciated. This has really been the icing on a turd of a year.

Going to repost this a few more times, having a bit of a family emergency and I'm not doing great. Need to buy food over the weekend, probably from a hospital ko-fi.com/goblinbuns/g...

Have about Β£20 which is great! It'll get me to work and get us some cheap food We're still struggling, mentally, physically, and financially, especially after the deduction from my wages last month. If anyone can help by boosting or commissioning that would be amazing. ko-fi.com/goblinbuns/g...

Hey folks, please share and help if you can. I know times are tough for everyone, but we're trying to survive on a single income that doesn't even cover our bills, and I'm bedridden most days. Thank you. xx

I'm at -Β£2 in my bank account, and nothing in savings or credit cards right now. If anyone can commission or share this post that would be amazing. We're really struggling this week.

Still struggling this month, and my wages were down Β£240 because the DWP are slow at sending letters and I had to pay back some UC. I've been interviewing for new jobs but having no luck. Come and help some disabled trans cuties! #mutualaid ko-fi.com/goblinbuns/g...

Hey, so, if any of you could go give @goblinbuns.bsky.social some love and support right now, that'd be great. Because while I'm struggling through near-constant suicidal thoughts, they're the one looking after me and they need looking after too.

Yeah, we're still in need of any assistance you can give. I'm sorry to keep spamming these, but things are really rough right now.

Could really do with a couple of these right now; I have an attachment of earnings for some DWP money I owed applied to this month's wages, despite me calling them immediately and sorting it out. I'm down by about Β£200 for the month I've also reset the monthly goal ko-fi.com/goblinbuns/g...

Related to this, I've not refreshed my video game PR contact details in a couple of years, so PR folks and devs working on interesting projects, please get in touch!

Caelyn@caelyn.bsky.social

I'm sad to say that I'm no longer working with the team at Rascal. It's been a great couple of years, but circumstances have dictated that it's time for me to move on. That does mean that I'm now (quite desperately) looking for freelance work, so if you need words for/about games, my DMs are open.

Hey, please share and help if you can. We have no money right now and very little food. πŸ’œ

Updated the balance to Β£1000, because we still don't have enough to live on. None of the jobs I've interviewed for have gotten back to me and we're just a bit stuck. Boosts etc appreciated! Come help a couple of disabled trans cuties πŸ’• ko-fi.com/goblinbuns/g...

I don't suppose I know anyone who could hook me up with a Blood of Dawnwalker code, do I? I narrowly missed out on a chance to review it, and I'd really like to be able to pitch future articles about it, but we can barely afford to eat right now, let alone buy video games.
