AIBU GoFundMe addiction

I've recently become addicted to a Gofundme campaign. Every time I press refresh the total raised has jumped up and I don't seem to be able to stop.

I'm trying to stay within Mumsnet rules here, so obviously I can't link or promote it.

Does anyone else have this enjoyable problem?

Roxanne is an aspiring queer witchy artist with their very own Go Fund Me, dontchaknow.

That comment has made my day. Hilarious!

I thought that comment must be a spoof designed to peak-trans more people!

KizzyBear · 15/01/2018 20:45

Oh cross post 😂

Are they crowdfunding for a magic wand with which to 'banish' us all from feminism, perchance?

LangCleg · 15/01/2018 20:48

Roxanne really does have a Go Fund Me. I'm not messing about!

They all seem to have one, tempted to ask my Ma for a lend of a frock and set one up myself.

The religious imagery in that is very interesting.

Disbelievers will be excommunicated. Apostates will be cast out. Doubters will be shunned.

It really is quite transparent. Doesn't The Patriarchy ever have any new ideas?

This is my first post on this board although I have been reading for a long while - So, hello!

Yesterday, on Twitter, I told a man who was asking people to report the fund to stop telling women what they can and cannot do and to change the record. My twitter went off with unpleasant responses (and lots of supportive ones too, tbf). I then got added to a Terf list, Bigot list and c**t list! Charming Grin

Well done to everyone sharing and donating, I hope this is the start of a huge new movement.

Hello, tanquery!

I don't tweet, but I understand that making those lists is a sign that you're doing something right Grin

They are also fond of inviting women to bonfires on Twitter.

I love marshmallows
