2021-03-12 15:58:14 +0000 UTCHonestly, I don't think benefitting off of a need for shelter is ever ethical, no matter how many cute ears and tasteful ties you cover it with

2021-03-08 23:26:39 +0000 UTCmaybe just keep Christine in the back pocket then for when GitCL is in pre-order/release and convince her to do the show as ~promotion~ Frank had Summoningsalt on the VGHistory podcast so that should be easy. Christine knows Lena so you could ask her for an intro?
