Anybody else feeling both tired and unable to sleep?

@pineywoozle (s) for HARRIS

@heidilifeldman I just stay up making art to make as many people as possible think about how important this vote is and I’m not above using my cat to do it.😉

Every time #KamalaHarris says “We’re not going back,” I think of the many ways in which that is true for me. One of them: I’m not going back to private, commercial social media. Just as healthy democracies disperse the powers of the state, healthy social media avoids excessive concentration. I will make this point to the #Harris campaign when I get their attention for Mastodon for Harris. Let’s keep showing them they should be participating in this community. secure.actblue.com/donate/mast

You could also ask them to stop making important announcements on Twitter.

@heidilifeldman and @JamesGleick I appreciate the thought behind what you said, but upon reflection…. why are we (the electorate) imposing our values on others? For #reasons campaigns have social media accounts on FB, Instagram, Threads, and X (this is specific to the United States). Most #Mastodon users can follow anyone on Threads (some instances blocked it). Is it not the voter’s responsibility to use *all* tools available to be informed? #harriswalz2024

@heidilifeldman Yes! I recently learned a lot of colleagues have moved to bluesky. While I’d love to reconnect with them online I have zero interest in giving my words and pictures to another billionaire or becoming a product to be bought/sold. No, thanks. So grateful for mastodon and (even with its flaws) the community here. 💞

Friends, I have been given some contact information for members of the Harris for President digital and social communications teams and I have started reaching out to them about our #MastodonforHarris fundraiser, secure.actblue.com/donate/mast. If you have been considering a contribution, today would be a great day to show a lot of activity!

#MastodonForHarris morning update - we are well over $300,000 and headed to 4000 contributions!

Funds raised as of this post: $326,239.24
# of contributions: ➡️ 3910 ⬅️
# of recurring contributions: 193

Current target: $500,000

I’m emphasizing the number of contributions because it is as important as the overall amount of money raised. Let’s continue to make an impact! secure.actblue.com/donate/mast

@heidilifeldman She gets millions of dollars from AIPAC, fossil fuel companies, weapons companies, etc., and this is what you choose to do. Shame. Free Palestine.

What a day. We are still fundraising fiercely at secure.actblue.com/donate/mast. I took time to set up #MastodonBlueWave at secure.actblue.com/donate/mast. But what has kept me busiest - apart from getting ready for out-of-town visitors - is that I’m starting to make modest inroads with people in and adjacent to the #HarrisForPresident campaign. This is a painstaking process, lots of emails, calls, texts, everybody sounding each other out. 1/

@heidilifeldman now donate to #MutualAid #MutualAidRequest. #MastodonForHarris raised money for someone who doesn't even care while there are dozens of requests on #MutualAid #MutualAidRequest #TransCrowdFund where lives are at stake and people are trying to acredite by their very existence.

their your clout behind that or continue being a spineless capitalistic centrist, I guess. because let's give someone money does not leftist make.

you might notice the actual left is mad at you, because this is all just a waste of money when there are people in the Mastodon communities who desperately need to raise funds just to make it through the week.

Thank you and every American fighting for democracy and against an authoritarian, fascist America.

Uplifting to witness!

With the #MastodonForHarris fundraiser approaching $300,000 (!), I thought I'd say a little about why I am going to keep it going, most likely all the way through Inauguration Day. 1/

Meanwhile, over on LinkedIn, I’m reaching out to the Harris for President on behalf of #MastodonForHarris. I can only do this sort of thing because of the many, many contributions, boosts, and posts about our effort. You are proving what I am saying. The LinkedIn post is in the photo and here linkedin.com/posts/heidilifeld.

Dr. Ferrous

@heidilifeldman excellent! I just shared your LinkedIn post with my network there. And sent you a connection request :)

There's an online engagement campaign call this afternoon if someone can hop on and give Mastodon a boost with the campaign there

Sharing my plans for #MastodonForHarris fundraiser: Incredibly, it is now conceivable that we will hit the current target of $125,000 soon, maybe even today. When we do, I will adjust the target. I hope I have been clear from the beginning; each target is a a benchmark, not an endpoint. 1/ secure.actblue.com/donate/mast

Heidi Li Feldman

I am continuing my efforts to contact key people in digital, outreach, and elsewhere in the Harris campaign. Eventually, I will get through, I’m sure. I’d like to have a list ready of qualified volunteers who could assist the campaign in understanding Mastodon and the Fediverse, setting up and maintaining an instance, and so forth. If you are interested in being contacted should an opportunity arise, please provide your details here opnform.com/forms/mfh-tech-vol. 2/ #MastodonForHarris

#Mastodon fundraiser for #JustinPearson and #JustinJones: #Mastodon4Justins

In less than a day, we've raised over $2000. I've set an initial goal of $3500.

Contributions in any amount, as well as boosts of the effort, are a way to fight for democracy, to be anti-racist, and to demand laws to control gun violence.

Give at secure.actblue.com/donate/mast
