Thank you for doing this! I started a fundraiser last week for Trans Lifeline, playing Wolfenstein 2, and donated to it to start. Here's my receipt! Do you mind if I repost this giveaway when I post my stream info later? Still trying to hit my goal.
@killjamesbond.bsky.social @devononearth.bsky.social would it be possible for y'all to boost this lovely fundraiser benefiting trans advocacy orgs? the prize is movies!
Getting some donations again, so Iβm going to keep this train rolling. If anyone can suggest some big accounts that would be down to signal boost this, Iβm all ears
@minakimes.bsky.social could I please trouble you for a signal boost on this fundraiser, I know movies arenβt your bailiwick but hopefully the cause is a worthy one for you
Today's movie that I think kicks ass and that you could potentially own if you win a prize in the drawing: Daisies, a gleefully anarchic feminist text from the Czech New Wave https://www.criterion.com/films/27854-daisies
Donations are kinda stalling out, not a big deal since the deadline is still two weeks awa, but if you're able to donate as part of the fundraiser, please do so
Nearing $2500 on this in two days, or about 5 times the prize pool, which is what I was hoping for. I have no real set goal for this, $5K would be neat, I guess
I recently watched Paper Moon for the first time, and man is it a sweet movie and a lot of fun. This could potentially be yours if you donate and win https://www.criterion.com/films/29964-paper-moon
Iβd ask @criterion.bsky.social to bump this, but their account is STILL not active here, kinda bizarre given their apparent commitment to boosting LGBTQ+ voices and all that. Meanwhile, theyβre still posting away on Xβ¦
I used to do these fundraisers on Twitter during the first Trump administration and during the pandemic, and now that I have three times the follower count, I figure I should do it here. I gotta do something, man, and this is as much as I can do as just a guy that posts
Please let us know how well this does. Things are uncertain now, but maybe we can also ask for help for trans support organizations outside the US affected by USAID
I don't work for them but I'm willing to help, at least for now its too early to ask
