Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I have $700 even in the WGA strikers goodie bags fund.
Polgara and I are going to deliver on Friday morning.
Jesse is delivering to WGA East New Yorkers, I'm sending her a check from the fund for handwarmers and such.
Leftover funds are likely going to be donated to a fund dedicated to helping out crew folk who have lost their jobs due to the strike.
I'm taking donations until Thursday, noon, at my paypal: Allyson000@aol.com

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
One of the writers sent this message to the admins, so I figured it ought to be posted over here:
Just wanted to thank you guys for the fantastic gift bag I picked up at the end of my picketing this morning at Fox. Your support and encouragement means a lot to us - and, for me, so does the chocolate!
Thanks again!

unitedhollywood.com has organized Pencils2MediaMoguls with a group of showrunners, including Joss Whedon.
Joss talks about it here.
ION, I'm sending Jesse bags and a check on Monday to take care of WGAeast. I believe we have a few hundred left over to donate to the Solidarity Fund to help non-union workers.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Another message from the picket lines:
I was on the line at Fox yesterday when the strike survival kits were delivered and wanted to thank you all for them.
Afterwards I heard many writers comment on how impressive it was not only that you were so supportive, but that the Buffy community is still so strong.
Being a Browncoat myself I wanted to explain that Joss is special that way, but figured it'd be best to just let them remain mystified.
Thanks again!
