Notes


gollark: We need some sort of list of good spirit quotes.
gollark: It might be more efficient (for me (if I could actually be bothered)) to just use patreon for support, except I think they *do* take a significant cut of things and are bad for small-amount-per-month donations.
gollark: If I had money, and some need for T-shirts, and could buy them in the UK, I... might buy those (not sure where I was going with this).
gollark: "ah yes, you can draw this squiggly line, you are CLEARLY the right person"
gollark: Why do we even *use* signatures for authentication?
