Lety Does 西來寺的春節平安燈會
61I saw a bunch of traffic the other day, so I walked around the corner to realize, oh yeah, it's time for Hsi Lai Temple's big annual New Year Celebration! It's maybe not the most interesting thing in the world, given I've already shown off other New Year celebrations these past few weeks, but I figured I should probably show off the largest Buddhist temple in the Western Hemisphere that's right next door.

Otherwise, the best way to support me is by pledging to my Patreon ( https://www.patreon.com/LetyDoesStuff ), where I also publish lewd modeling content. But I'm like, *extremely super behind on those right now* due to personal delays.
If you just wanna help with my PeerTube/YouTube costs and don't mind an IOU on the smut, maybe check that out?
And if you're a current or former Doer of Stuff or just someone interested in my lewd content, I'm not on hiatus-- I'm just a dumpster fire with tits. I still plan to deliver 100% of the rewards supporters helped inspire and create-- I just need a bit more time to catch up and am keeping people up-to-date on over my Discord ( https://letydoesstuff.com/joindiscord ).
Thanks everyone for all your love, support, and patience, continued or otherwise.
