Hello, my name is Stoker and a lot of you know me from the furry scene as a silly bat guy who makes bad jokes and writes a certain modestly popular comic about an immodest character. What most of you probably DON'T know is that in my real life I am a live-in caretaker for my father, who's in his early 80s and has a fixed income.

For the past few years we've managed to keep things afloat on our own pretty well, but lately inflation is *killing* our collective bank accounts. Pretty much all my credit cards are maxed out and getting all the bills covered often comes down to the wire right at the end of the month. On top of that, any unexpected expense throws everything into chaos... and, naturally, we've just had one hit us...

Seems we need some electrical work done, and that don't come cheap! I still don't know the full extent of the damage, but considering all the other expenses that need covering... well, this is where we could use your help

I've donated to several GFMs in the past but I honestly have no idea how it works on the receiving end. Whatever we make from this is going right into bills, debts, savings, home repair and maintenance, and any other pressing matters, whether we meet our goal or not (or, God willing, exceed it).

If you can't help (and I ASSURE you that you needn't feel obligated), signal boosting this would be incredibly appreciated. The sooner we can get all this taken care of, the better

Thank you for reading, and for those of you who can help with a donation or a boost, thank you even more for that. Bless each and every one of you
