@SnoopJ Kaiju roasting your town with fire. Huge slugs biting off your toes. Devil girls with their eyes all aglow. That’s what Fedi means to me. #monsterdon
I just want to take a second and remind #Monsterdon about the real reason for the season
Okay, it's time . All I can say looking at these numbers is that you all have surpassed expectations so far it's hard to believe! I'm not gonna' lie, I cried a couple times reading these numbers.
Last year the total was about $2600.00.
This year... The grand total with the donation match from @paco @steggy and others, is so far over that it's hard to believe.
#MonsterdonSavesChristmas brought in a mind blowing $12,321.26 for charity this year!
You're amazing, every single one of you. :)
o/~ It's the Final Count Down! NA na na na! NANANANANA! Na na na na... o/~ Okay I'm sorry I had to! LOL!
We are here ladies, gentlemen, and everyone in between! The FINAL day of #MonsterdonSavesChristmas ! And we're going to send it out with a bang!
Today so far, we've added another $1629.38! Not our highest day yet, but it's about to be! Also, with this additional funding, and the generous matching from @paco , @steggy , and others, we will now absolutely top 10K for this year! UNREAL!! We did it all! But we can still drive that number up, so if you haven't donated and are still intending to, get them in because the drive ends with the credits for Tails from the Crypt tonight!
Today also added a few new charities to the list of charities! We added, Greater Boston Food Bank, The Black LGBTQIA+ Migrant project (BLMP), The Transgender Law Center, and Food Gatherers! As well as personal donations to Kye and QuyetPaws to help them out! You guys do a lot of giving, and it's pretty glorious!
The current total donations are $7,533.60, and that's BEFORE the donation matching! Absolutely astonishing! Way to go! Ane we will be taking donations through the end of Tails from the Crypt! I'll be running a tally during the movie, and if anything big happens posting the bumps! I like this movie, but please, keep me too busy to watch it. 😉
After the movie I'll do a final total, and we'll start the drawing for the giveaways. So stick around and keep an eye out for that!
Y'all are amazing,
I have some new folks following me this week, so an extended explanation of #Monsterdon :
When this post is about two hours old, at 7 MST (UTC -7), a bunch of folks, organized by @Taweret , will be watching a movie together and posting about it live.
You are welcome to join us! It's a good week to do it because this week, Monsterdon is saving Christmas! Check out the #monsterdonsaveschristmas hashtag for details on the fundraiser! And #monsterdonalerts for details on this, and all the future, movies.
This week, we're watching Tales From The Crypt (1972), which is streaming free on Tubi and maybe some other places. Just start the movie on time, watch the hashtag, and post along with us! You can just do it: it's free and no one can stop you!
If you don't want to see a bunch of snarky posts about a bad movie, you can mute the hashtag. In the Mastodon web UI, you do this by clicking on the hashtag, selecting the option to mute it, and making a new filter to hide all posts with the hashtag. You'll make the Baby Godzilla cry but it's okay, Godzilla is tough and all. Not even the entire Japanese army, air force, and navy working together can get Godzilla down, not really.
@jsit You could always make one

Today's stats for #MonsterdonSavesChristmas !
So far we've raised $231.75 in donations across three different causes!
Trans Lifeline, Rainbow Railroad, and The Hairy Nosed Wombat Foundation!
Not a bad start!
It's #MonsterdonSavesChristmas time! https://timeloop.cafe/@Taweret/115736026988063472
If you want to support a charity but can't afford to donate, or aren't able to/don't want to for any other reason, I got you covered! Just let me know which charity you want to support, I'll make a donation in your name (or anonymously if you prefer), and YOU get the #MonsterdonSavesChristmas karma. And also the giveaway entry. (Which you could also get without donating but whatever.) Praise Godzilla!
Conditions:
- Each donation will be US $50 (at most... I guess you can ask for less if you want 🤷)
- One donation per person
- Requests must be received before the #Monsterdon movie *starts*
- The receiving charity must be a registered nonprofit (that means 501(c)(3) organizations in the US, or some equivalent elsewhere)
- No political organizations
- No groups that support hate
- I reserve the right to veto any charity if something unanticipated comes up. If this happens I'll let you know and we can an alternate.
