As the pledge drive rolls to a stop, I’d like to take the opportunity to once again offer my gratitude to everyone who donated (as well as those of you who donate on a monthly basis).
The Pledge Drive is winding down! If you’ve given, thank you! If not, give the donate button below a little click.
In the wake of the mass shooting in Portland last Saturday night, when reliable information was still scarce, some of those on the right took advantage of the confusion to spread a little more confusion of their own.
The Pledge Drive is nearing its conclusion. If you’ve donated already, BIG THANKS! If not, please hit the Donation button below!
Attention women! Sorry, “wahmen.” Are you broke and in need of some quick cash? Here are some guaranteed EZ get-rich-quick schemes you can use to GET PAID, according to some dude called Incelius Savage on the Incels.is forum.
The Pledge Drive is nearly done! If you’ve donated, BIG THANKS! If you haven’t, consider clicking that donate button below:
So this is definitely one of the stranger posts I’ve ever seen on the Men’s Rights subreddit, which is really saying something, and I’m inclined to say that it’s all bullshit. I mean, I don’t necessarily doubt the body dysmorphia; I doubt the explanation. And I suspect you will too.
The last time I updated you on the progress of the pledge drive, I was feeling pretty discouraged about how it was going, and pretty pessimistic about the future of the site. But now, I’m feeling a lot better. Thanks to a small flood of donations, some quite generous, things are looking a lot brighter, and we’ve almost reached our goals.
If you’re one of those who donated, thank you!
If you haven’t donated yet, please rectify this by hitting the donate button below!
The Pledge Drive still isn’t quite there yet. If you’ve donated, big thanks! If you haven’t (yet) please hit the donate button below. Thanks!
Last night, protesters were gathering in a Portland park to prepare for a march against police violence when an irate local man reportedly emerged from a nearby house with a gun; according to witnesses on the scene, he got into a confrontation with several of the protesters before opening fire on the group, killing one woman. One of the protesters reportedly fired back, injuring the shooter. Four others were wounded.
The Pledge Drive is still not out of the woods yet! If you’ve donated, THANKS! If not, please consider hitting the donate button below.
Jordan Peterson, intellectual fusspot and right-wing grifter extraordinaire, has gotten himself a new speaking gig: he’ll be one of the headliners at a crypto conference in Miami in April, which should give him plenty of time to learn the basics of cryptocurrency before speaking publicly about it.
The PLEDGE DRIVE is going a little better. Thanks to all who’ve donated! But we’re not there yet. If you haven’t donated (yet) you can rectify that by hitting the button below. Thanks!!
So I’ve been puzzling over this comment in the Men’s RIghts subreddit for several days now. The topic at hand? Why the Boy Scouts are doing very badly right now.
Sorry to have to bring some bad news to you all, but the pledge drive is, well, not doing so great. While some of you have stepped up and donated, in some cases generously, the total number of donors has been much smaller than usual, and unless we can turn this around, hopefully in the next few days, I’m going to have trouble keeping the blog running. It’s likely I’ll have to cut back on posts, possibly drastically, and/or seriously consider shutting the blog down. I’m really sorry to have to even raise this as a possibility, but unfortunately it’s a real one.
Which seems a pity, because if everyone who enjoys this blog on a regular basis were to donate even a small amount of money, as a lump sum or monthly, we could raise all the necessary money to keep the blog (and me) thriving in a matter of a couple of hours.
