UPDATE: NEW & UPDATED TIERS!
🕑 Added 2021-09-30 18:25:32 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
Hope you're all doing good and enjoying your week so far. You may have noticed this evening (or not idk your life) that there are some changes afoot on the page. Well, with a new month very nearly upon us, I've decided now is the time to make some changes and introduce some new tiers - including a new request tier!
These are changes I've been thinking about and planning for what feels like weeks and weeks and I'm so happy to finally be bringing them about. Before we get into more of the details let me just say regarding the new request tier: to anyone that is still waiting on a request from earlier in the year, don't worry, I'm still gonna be making my way through them on weekly streams!
Okay so, let's do this! I've laid out everything in the tiers themselves but to give a brief overview of what is coming with each tier now:
- LVL 1 (Cadet Squish) $1: Livestream VODs, Live Stages, Blocked reactions, JPN MVs & KPOP Catch-Up Polls
- (New) LVL 2 (Sgt. Squish) $2.50: All of the above plus Album Listens, Short/Mid-Length Variety & Reality, & FLF Polls
- LVL 3 (Capt. Squish) $5: All bonus content, including Long Form Variety & Reality & Variety Polls
- (New) LVL 4 (Maj. Squish) $8: Monthly Request!
Now, to go into a bit more detail and explain some of these newer perks:
- KPOP Catch-Up Polls: You know those videos where I catch up on a bunch of MVs at once? Well I'm starting to need to do them more regularly but I can't keep up with everything even with these videos. The aim is to do 1-2 a month depending on how busy the month is and these polls will help me prioritise what I should catch up on!
- Short/Mid-length variety & reality: This is basically things like Going Seventeen, Time To Twice and so on (pretty much anything under the 40-ish minute mark)
- Long-form variety & reality: What it says on the tin, all the longer stuff eg. Weekly Idol episodes or shows like Girls Planet 999
- Monthly Request: This is very different to how requests worked before. I am currently limiting it to 10 people for now, this may change in the future but while I still have old requests to catch up and I want to ease myself back into requests in general, the number will stay low. So what can you request? Basically any 1-2 videos with a total length no more than 10 minutes. This could be a couple music videos, some live stages, some fan-made content, whatever you want really. So long as it's under 10 minutes, I'm happy and everything will be watched on a monthly request livestream! (Stream will potentially be dubbed the Squishy Stream.... maybe)
So those are the main details out of the way. I'm sure there are gonna be questions and I'm happy to answer them as they come but hopefully this'll be a good start.
One thing I will say is that I know some people won't be particularly happy with some of these changes, in particular I imagine some people might be upset about Album Listens being moved to a higher tier but please keep in mind that the only reason I have these tiers is to make sure I put an appropriate value on the amount of time and effort I put into each thing. Album listens take a lot of time and energy and that's why I decided to move them up.
I hope more than anything that you guys will understand and respect my decisions here and if for whatever reason you decide this Patreon isn't for you then that's totally fine :)
Okay I think that's pretty much everything I need to say for now. Like I said, I'm sure you guys will have questions so I'll do my best to keep you guys as informed as possible!
In the meantime, if you're considering moving tiers (particularly if you want to upgrade) wait until it hits midnight and becomes Oct 1st PST to avoid getting double charged.
Speak to you guys soon!

(I'm on mobile right now, but the process should be the same or at least similar on all devices.) If you're on kaia's page, there should be a button at the top that says My Membership. Click that, and from there it should take you to the different tier options. Alternatively, if you click the button at the top right corner of the screen (looks like three lines) and then hit Manage Memberships, you should be able to find kaia and change your tier from there
How to change tiers???

I got to this post an hour late and the Major Squishy tier is already sold out! Is it possible for you to cycle out members of that tier so that other patrons get the chance to request? Thank you!!
