Got another $150 in donations, so we're now sitting at $2560 / $2670!!

‼️ We are SO CLOSE to getting this *completely funded* today, well ahead of the deadline. I'm so grateful to every single one of you.

She got me through a terrible time in 23-24. Now it's my turn. ❤️

Also kinda wanna make a video called "shane hollander being an autistic disaster for 10 minutes" because my boy was really like BABE WAKE UP I NEED TO TELL YOU THE 10 YEAR PLAN FOR OUR FUTURE

Feels SO GOOD to be vidding again. I really missed it. Just kinda fell out of it due to my pesky full time job ugh capitalism

Uh ohhh everything is working flawlessly and now I'm in full on Autistic Hyperfocus mode and I'm ignoring my wife 😅

We are $260 away from getting this goal COMPLETELY FUNDED! We might actually get this done *today* I'm so overwhelmed by everyone's generosity and kindness 🥹

To the WONDERFUL person who just sent me $800, from the bottom of my heart, *thank you* 😭🥹❤️

The way the Twin Cities community has rallied around my friend is giving me hope on this very dark day.

Including today's matching funds goal of $300, we are now sitting at $2410 / $2670!!!!!!!

Taking my mind off everything and dusting off my 14-year-old desktop computer and the equally as ancient video editing software on it. Gonna try to vid Shane/Ilya. It's been 2.5 years since I touched this software, but at this point I think it's muscle memory 🥰

There's a lot happening rn. Everything feels overwhelming & terrible. But your kindness towards my St. Paul friend leaves me feeling hopeful. There is good in this world too, & it's YOU.

We have a matching funds goal of $300 today, which would get us to 75% funded!

Please signal boost if you can🥹

✨MATCHING FUNDS ALERT✨

Someone off Bluesky has generously offered to match funds up to $300 today. 🥹

Currently at $1310/$2670, so that would get us to almost 75% complete!! We're overwhelmed by your kindness. Let's keep her and her sweet dogs housed and safe!

Please signal boost if you can 🫶

$1310 / $2670, only $25 from the halfway mark- incredible progress in just half a day! Y'all are really renewing my faith in the goodness of humanity. We can't thank you enough. 🥹

She wanted me to share this with you:

Three Sisters Stew: An Indigenous Vegetable Dish Three Sisters Stew is an easy-to-make, wholesome dish of vegetables gently stewed in a fragrant broth. With indigenous roots, this delicious dish is perfect to serve during harvest, for Thanksgiving, ...

THIS ONE 😋

The "Twin Peaks" title screen, with a two-lane road heading off toward mountains and trees beside a sign reading "Welcome to Twin Peaks." Instead of the show title, the single word "Flam" apears in green text.

We're at $1310 / $2670!

SO CLOSE to the halfway mark! I would love to raise just $25 more before I go to bed. Seriously, thank you all so much for your generosity and support. 🫶

We're at $1310 / $2670 now!

That is only *$25* from the halfway point! After only seven hours!!!! I'm so grateful to every single one of you. ❤️

Thanks to a very generous $200 donation, we're now up to $1285 / $2670!!

That's only *fifty dollars* away from the halfway point! I am absolutely blown away by how much we've raised in five hours. Thank you for helping my dear friend. My heart is so full. 🥹

It's overwhelming to see how much the Twin Cities community cares for our neighbors. We keep us safe and housed. 🫶❤️👊[and loon emoji that we definitely should have by now]

I feel the same, this is exactly why I'm fundraising. I would pay the entire amount for her if I could, but capitalism...

Thank you so much for this, Faith! It means a lot to me. ❤️❤️❤️

This is a fully legitimate post from a person I trust. Minneapolis-St. Paul metro is under attack, and more mutual aid is necessary, at least until the federal thugs from DC leave our province.

Furthermore, Minnesota is Canada.

Any signal boost appreciated, there's LOTS of worthy asks in the Twin Cities, and reaching people outside of MN increases the likelihood people still have money to donate. Even just reskeets can make the difference!

Ran out of characters, but right now we're sitting at $1075 / $2670! Thank you to everyone who has donated so far. This is the most important fundraising I've ever done. Your generosity means the world to me and to my friend.

We keep us safe. 🫶

To the incredibly kind person who just donated $1000... I have no words. You have no idea how much this means to me, or how much this means to my friend. I don't think she realized how much strangers on the internet would rally together for her.

Anyway, her adorable dogs say thank you! 🥹❤️

We're sitting at $50 / $2670 right now, which is already such a great start! When we get to $100, I'll share a picture of my friend's CUTE AF dogs 🥰
