$550/month and a HUGE post last week.

Continued thanks to everyone who is helping out via Patreon. We made it to another nice round number over the weekend: $550 a month in support! And in case you missed it last week, we had an awesome scoop about an autistic kid getting a wonderful response from Lucasfilm to his letter about Jedi marriage. The post has done HUGE traffic. Here it is:

Anthony Downs Personally, I follow you guys on Facebook and check the site itself occasionally, so I don't need the blog reposted here. On the other hand, since it just sends me an email about it, that is pretty easy to handle on my end, though I would request if possible that you get the title of the blog post into the update here, so that it would show up as more than "GeekDad posted an update" ? Not sure how easy that is from the backend here though. Just my few thoughts
