I joined the second year and it seems quite fitting that year 1 patreons receive something I do not.

If you have information on him or his family in China please PM me. I have removed a series of posts that were going to serve the purpose of having me lose my shit with commenters and served little purpose otherwise.

I am sure many people consider many things - it does not mean we need to type them out. We all hope that whatever the problem it is not the worst problem and that he will come out of this safely.

Re: Counterfeit decks from KWP and AOP on Temu

Temu has an office in the US: Suite 355, 31 St. James Avenue, Boston, Massachusetts 02116, USA - so they should have to obey our laws.

Let them know about the counterfeits, and let KWP know - it should at least put a crimp in the counterfeits

I am not going to invest the time required to make things any clearer than I have made them.

I am also not kidding when I say that there will be an end to driving away creators and users due to lack of courtesy.
