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?

I wouldn’t mind being on a ‘cunt list’. I do, after all, have one of my own. Not a word I’d ever normally use but defined by the OED as ‘a woman’s genitals’. Now if only we could get someone to define woman.

I enjoy that Roxanne's utter batshittery will exist in the ether for all time - with her full name attached to it.
I've been think about this what with our friend over on the 'wrong side of history thread' - when the wheel turns on the trans ideology, all these people will never be able to claim that they never believed it anyway, and they didn't try to erode women's rights, or harass and abuse women and they didn't support the transing of children up to and including irreversible surgeries and damaging drugs - because it will be up there, forever, as proof that they did.
Gives me a warm tingly glow to think they won't be able to squirm out of admitting to their own words and deeds - and that they will have to admit they were wrong.

what's the current total at?

Comments were turned off at the suggestion of staff from Go fund Me.
So they aren't taking it down.

If you tick the "hide name and comment from everyone but the organiser" box, does that put you down as "Anonymous?"

IrkThePurist · 15/01/2018 21:34

£10 of that was from Roxanne. Sadly her comment is gone. I think they should have left them open, TRA's were donating to leave comments, and they do more to wake people up than we ever could.

MrsTerryPratchett · 15/01/2018 21:35

Yes @LauraMipsum

IrkThePurist · 15/01/2018 21:36

LauraMipsum Yes it should do.
If you go to your settings and make your entire account anonymous, then make it un private later, your name will show up on all past donations so people might want to be aware of that.

Yay gofundme!

Thehairthebod · 15/01/2018 21:45

Wowzers, just had a look at Roxanne's Gofundme.

I was brought up to know that if you don't have anything nice to say you don't say anything at all. So here's me not saying anything about Roxanne's artwork Wink (Thanks Kelly Clarkson!)

I enjoy that Roxanne's utter batshittery will exist in the ether for all time - with her full name attached to it.

Me too. This kind of thing is what the Internet is made for!

ATeardropExplodes · 15/01/2018 21:49

T/MRAs weren't donating, just making comments. Other people were donating on their behalf after the comments.

£13,610!

It's gone up by over £200 in 20 minutes.

Dear oh dear Roxanne has banished me. And if I ignore her banishing then she will be disgusted with me.

It's a spooky re echo of my discussion with my five year old niece this evening on my making her go to bed, I have this awful feeling she's learned to MN.

KizzyBear · 15/01/2018 22:03

How's she policing this 'banishing' anyway?

EmpressOfTheSpartacusOceans · 15/01/2018 22:24

Is Roxanne's disgust better or worse than dying in a fire?

ThomasRichard · 15/01/2018 22:24

I’m banished? ConfusedHmmGrin

explodingkittens · 15/01/2018 22:25

It's certainly funnier, @empress Grin

Stopthetrain · 15/01/2018 22:30

repent and rejoin your sisters in the revolution oh my goodness Roxanne Grin

EmpressOfTheSpartacusOceans · 15/01/2018 22:33

Much funnier! Grin
