Hey, everyone …
Yesterday was a “zero-dollar day” in our year-end fundraiser.
https://news.rationalreview.com/support-rrnd
As of 5am Eastern time on Friday, November 15, our total remains at $1,787, which leaves us $888.50 short of our $5,531 goal (once we reach $2675.50, supporter GL will “match funds” for the other half).
So far this year, I’ve kept the tone lighter than usual, because progress has been faster (or at least that’s my impression — I haven’t actually compared numbers closely).
But, in the interest of having this thing over, I shall now impersonate Oliver Twist and offer you my most pitiful “please, sir, I want some more,” while relentlessly flogging the link through which you can support the freedom movement’s daily newspaper:

No rest for the wicked! Got mouths to feed! The accused witch turned me into a newt (I got better)!

But seriously: Once we reach our goal, I stop talking about money entirely for the rest of the year and mostly until next October. It seems to me that this coming Monday is a better time to wrap things up than, say, December 31.
Bonus reason for making your best contribution ASAP: When GL “matches funds,” he usually does so in Bitcoin … which I expect to go up considerably in value over the next few weeks. So getting this done early means that that SECOND $2,675.50 COULD end up being $3,912.24 or $5,211.97 by the time we spend it. Instead of your donations merely being MATCHED, they could be MULTIPLIED.
But before that can happen, we need to actually get those donations, in the amount of $888.50, and sooner is better. So pretty please, kick in at:

Also, have a great weekend!
