I've had several Patreon pledges deleted already in September.  Perhaps I annoyed some patrons, but I prefer to believe that we're all just doing our best to get by out here, and patronage is always an optional/luxury expense for people.  

Consider this your irregular reminder that a Patreon pledge, no matter how small, is one of the best ways to reassure me that hanging in there with my deeply unfashionable sex blog is something that people value!
