For reference, the National Lottery grant that Graham Linehan tried to keep Mermaids from getting is $128,000(£100,000) a year for five years.

A ridiculous youtube man and his ridiculous internet friends have raised enough money to fund Mermaids almost as much as the National Lottery grant.

ETA: Ridiculous internet friends now including Chelsea Manning.

They've raised $162,235.68 so far, not far off the goal of $167,998. (Current goal is to make a dollar for every single Tweet Graham Linehan has ever made)

I have only an hour before I have to get ready to work, but there seems to be rumors that Chelsea Manning is trying to talk Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez into joining him.

Yesterday goes up among some of the best days I’ve ever had in my life. I went over to a friend’s house, and went to the mall. She tried out all sorts of makeups on me, and I saw two of my super supportive friends there. After that, we went back to her house, and she gave me a makeover. Wearing just that makeup and a dress, I got a glimpse of what might be one day, and that’s made me sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows inside even after a whole day. Like I couldn’t stop smiling yesterday.

Notable maker of bitches John Romero is on now. Also they're only about $3000 away from $200,000.

EDIT: They made it over $200,000

That's fantastic, I'm glad for yoU!

For me, yesterday was when I got my ears pierced, and it's been about a week that I've been wearing eye makeup in public. Today to church. So yeah, gender euphoria all around :)

Yes. Mara Wilson just joined. Owen Jones is on and joking about waking Jeremy Corbyn up to teach him what Discord is to get him on. Donations have passed $250,000.


Chapo Trap House have gone on Hbomb. Josh Sawyer is waiting in the wings.

I'm not trans but this beloved video game from my childhood being used for such a good cause to get so many progressive figures on board makes me happy.
We are free to believe that this is the century of authority, a century tending to the right, a Fascist century. If the XIXth century was the century of the individual (liberalism implies individualism) we are free to believe that this is the "collective" century, and therefore the century of the State.

The Gamer completed the stream when I was sleeping (rude) and has earned ~$350,000 for Mermaids.

Reports coming in that Graham Lineham has shrivelled into a piece of corn.
