I’m going to step away from the computer for bit. Here’s where things stand with the Mastodon for Harris Debate Matchathon. We are heading toward the rung eight on the match ladder, with $328 to go. When we reach that rung, we we’ll be well on the way to having earned $4000 in matching funds. Please tell folks that if they donate here https://secure.actblue.com/donate/mastodon-for-harris their contributions will be matched. Matchathon runs until the end of the night or when match funds are used up, whichever comes first.

Very moving to see #Biden take the stage.

Mastodon for #Harris morning update, 8/7. We’ve raised over half a million dollars. 🎊

I’m particularly proud of the current number of recurring and overall contributions, a testament to the collective, collaborative effort we are making.

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. https://secure.actblue.com/donate/mastodon-for-harris

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, https://secure.actblue.com/donate/mastodon-for-harris. If you have been considering a contribution, today would be a great day to show a lot of activity!

My friends, we are just at the beginning of the fight to elect Kamala Harris President of the United States and to put as many Democrats in office throughout the country. Indeed, upon electing Harris, we will have to fight to make sure she is inaugurated. Please put your energy into these fights. Don’t sweat the small stuff.

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! https://secure.actblue.com/donate/mastodon-for-harris

What a day. We are still fundraising fiercely at https://secure.actblue.com/donate/mastodon-for-harris. I took time to set up #MastodonBlueWave at https://secure.actblue.com/donate/mastodonbluewave. 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/
