Months ago, I promised to help Crayons2Calculators raise $5K for their Fill That Bus school supply drive. But then work happened 😩

I'm kicking in $5/donor, with 3 matchers!

Donate here: bullcityschools.app.neoncrm.com/tgregdoucette

ALSO: our friend @gomeral.net has agreed to kick in $5-per-donor for the next 30 donors!

So that means an extra *+$30* contributed on top of anything you donate! 🤯

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.

There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.

What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.

It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

Ah, no: it’s “donate money to help kids and watch @gregdoucette.bsky.social just be super grateful, which is also super important” season. Very different, but still very important!

I *really* want more reporting on this because the book was pretty heavily vetted by lawyers in advance of publication….

Maris Kreizman @maris.bsky.social · 15h

This is so damn scary. The book claimed that Jeffrey Epstein was the one who introduced Donald and Melania. Now the CEO of Harper UK is out.

So at ~2 hours into the thread, we've got 8 donors contributing $377.84

Then adding in the matches ($5x5x8) is another +$200, putting us at $577.84 overall so far

Already 10% of the way to the goal!

To give you an idea of how the monetary impact works out, a good rule of thumb is that $25 can fill a backpack with everything a student needs for the school year

So for every donation you make, the matchers are adding another backpack's worth on top

Technically missed 2025 because of work too 😂 But making up for it now!

For every 👏 single 👏 donor 👏 from now until 11:59pm PDT Sunday, there are five of us adding in $5 apiece

So a $10 donation from you means $35 to Crayons2Calculators!
