Hey cool! You love games media! So do I! A lot of great writing is right now being sidelined by big website closures and belts tightening, so if you've got a coin or two to spare, why not help out an independent site.
Oh you're not sure what those are? No worries:

First up there's the currently subtweeted @uppercutcrit which seems rad and which is setting aside money to help cover costs. Want to help contribute to their fund: https://twitter.com/uppercutcrit/status/1250472226601795589
Bullet Points is one of my favorite video game websites! (And not just cause I've written for them). Thoughtful, artful criticism focused on one specific game per month. https://www.patreon.com/bulletpoints
What about backing a site like @IntoTheSpine ? You can become a Patron to them: https://www.patreon.com/intothespine
And I'd be remiss for not pointing out @unwinnable which is currently running a Stay Home Read Unwinnable special where you can read all of our back issues for free, and also you can donate to help our writer relief program: https://unwinnable.com/stay-home/
If you can and you've got the cash to spare, consider donating a bit of money to sites like these which are working hard to make sure that writers are still getting paid gigs right now! They're independent publications and they can always use your support.
(also let me know if I forgot anyone)
Do you want a video game website with actual poetry on it? Why not try out @_videodame and throw some cash to it while you're at it: https://www.paypal.me/videodamecrit
If you're looking to see some quality PC games coverage and want to support a site of some great writers and artists, check out @rebind_io https://www.rebind.io/support-us-on-patreon/
Or similarly, if you like quality writing and want to see it regularly supported, I can't speak more highly of the work of the site @critdistance which compiles great work every week that you may have missed: https://www.critical-distance.com/support-us/
If you're looking for video game content that intersects with politics, be sure to check out @noescapevg ! They don't currently have a way for you to pay for them, but you can at least dedicate your readership: http://noescapevg.com/
