I can't contribute 'til next Thursday but I'm totally in at that point.

it was bad; it might have been Latin.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, wait. Can I watch CSI online or not? I mean, to be supportive. Am I ridiculous? Possibly.

Allyson, you are one of the kindest hearted people I know. You can sign me up to contribute.

Not ridiculous, Jesse - I decided not to watch The Office (of which I missed the first half) online for the same reason... even though I don't know whether it even means anything. I mean, even symbolic is OK, I guess, so I'm going with it.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Thanks for the link, Tiggy!

Allyson is my fandom!hero.
Which is to say, I'm in. Plastic rainponchos and all.
Fans4writers.com is coordinating a Food for Writers campaign. It's aim is to provide a near continual presence alongside the striking writers. With you know, coffee and doughnuts.
It's a follow on from the Whedonesque pizza run, using the same slogan (pictured with Joss). "You fed our minds. We'd like to return the favor."
At the moment the Campaign Affiliates are just getting sorted out, but it will allow various fandoms to coordinate their own fun(d)-raising drives with specific targets and messages (for example Pushing Daisies forums are raising money to send pies to the picket lines. Hopefully there will be witty and supportive slogans printed on stickers to go with them).
Which is tremendously helpful for all those sites that don't have an Allyson!
(Also? Joss Whedon and his Dollhouse, Not coming soon sign)
And since I'm editing, I may as well point out that Joss has another strike blog up. And even he admits
(By the way, I’m fully aware that I have turned into Dustin Hoffman as Lenny Bruce at the end of the movie when he’s all strung out and not funny and just reading legal briefs during his stand-up, but further down I make this really awesome joke you’re gonna wanna tell all your friends, just wait.)
I guess being at the heart of something and then seeing an outsider’s gross misapprehensions about it was too much of a rollercoaster for this sick boy (not to be confused with Sick Boy from “Trainspotting”, who is less phlegmy and more confusingly hot). So I rant, and you have to suffer for it. And I totally lied about that great joke. I got nothin’. But I can’t let this shoddy journalism go unanswered. They have turned me into a blogger. And that I do not forgive.

Punishingly Intricate
Can we sponsor a bag or something? I'm sure we could do more than 25 if Allyson is up for creating them
I'm in!
