Turns out his fans were more than willing to pay the ransom.
So far, Adejuyigbe has raised over $320k (and counting!)
we hit 50k already.
i’m losing my mind.
fuck!!!!!!
okay uhhh i guess the planning for 2021 begins now.
you’re all nuts.
keep donating!!!!
And really dumb, he explains.
I just dont have any interest in making irreverent things that arent gonna help people in some way.
I did not agree to this!
like do NOT sign this petition that@PFTompkinscreated to get me to do cocaine with@mattkoff!
I do not know if it is legally binding and I dont want to break any laws here!!
And I didnt just stumble across that organization.
I learned about it fromSadie Dupuis, who has done a bunch of work with them.
For me, that meant fundraising and organizing to make a ton of hygiene kits.
I love u back SELAH!
Today was the best - other half of donations going out tomorrow morning!
Repost from @selahnhc @mitrajouhari & friends built 1,000 hygiene kits for @lacanetwork and @selahnhc.
Today, she delivered all 500 hygiene kits to our Saturday Program.
@mitrajouhari we you!
I had volunteered withSELAHbefore and think the work they do is so vital and important.
Its impossible to walk around L.A. right now and not see how dire the situation is for the unhoused.
It has allowed me to channel the sadness and hopelessness I feel into something that feels productive and good.
Update: all full for September.
signup for september hygiene kit build in bio.
1000 kits going to SELAH and an org I will share later this week.
Now theres like a little web connection of us all DMing each other and offering tips and support.
Thats a pretty beautiful thing.
Its the least anyone with any sort of platform can do to try, she says.
As she explains, its not exactly new to her.
Ive been organizing with DSA for years on a number of different issue-based campaigns, she says.
Between the two of us we delivered groceries to 9 DIFF HOUSEHOLDS in Crown Heights today.
These are such unbelievably important times, politically, she explains.
She says its been crucial for fundraising, for exposure, for political education, for rallying volunteers.
Its a global pandemic, Squirm says.
People are sick and dying, losing their jobs and homes.
It feels insane to not at least take a stab at help out just a little bit..
TONIGHT !
me + @tweetrajouhari host a fundraiser/hellraiser SHREDFEST with@DSA_LosAngelesfor@fatima4assembly!
Many Democratic Socialist beliefs and focuses are especially relevant now, when so many people are suffering economically.
STIMULUS SOLIDARITY FUNDRAISER HELLRAISER !
And Im unemployed, so Ive got a lot of time on my hands.
If that means doing livestream fundraisers to help get people some money, I amdown.
Throwing a livestream fundraiser is literally theleastI could do … Theres actual organizers saving peoples lives right now.
But this isnt his first rodeo.
I first got involved in harm-reduction outreach because people around me kept dying overdosing from Fentanyl, he says.
All of my other passions, like comedy, have been totally put on hold, he says.
Delivering it to homies who want it is just me participating in a tiny way.
