Help Mikaela With Her Transition

(First $5000 goal reached! Thank you so much! The following has been preserved from the original post.)

I'm Mikaela Thorn Scholl, AKA: ThornBrain online. I'm a Let's Player, video editor, voice over artist, musician, and writer, and I'm a member of the YouTube channels TheStrawhatNO! and TheMidnightFrogs. I came out in January 2021 as a transgender woman.

I make enough from what I do to cover my monthly bills, but not enough to support gender affirmation or legal name/gender change fees, especially while I'm still in debt after having to replace my entire computer and recording system last year.

Myself and my friends Radhames (Yoshi) and Jacob (Jacob) will hold a livestream fundraiser on my Twitch on February 16, 2021 starting at 12PM Pacific. We'll play some games and videos for our Let's Play channel, commentate TheMidnightFrogs' abridging movie from last year and give it the podcast treatment, and also tell my coming out story.

The more money we raise, the more we'll do and show, including airing videos that are currently Patreon-only.

Our primary goal was $5000, and because we've reached it, TheMidnightFrogs will abridge a second movie and TheStrawhatNO! will Let's Play Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon and Link: The Faces of Evil.

The money will go towards paying off my remaining debt (update: succeeded!) and help with gender affirmation therapy and legal fees (also succeeded!).
