Long-time lurker here with a charity request. I've posted this to the D&D and PYF charity threads as well, hope this isn't inappropriate to pop onto GBS.

My family's trying to help save the life of a Honduran doctor who needs a kidney. He has a donor but not quite enough scratch for the procedure.

From what I gather he's part of the community my aunt met while she's been teaching in Honduras. Said aunt is a badass who has survived cancer herself.

I'm bad at communicating with this part of my family, but I'd really like to help them out with this. They have no idea that I'm posting about this on a dead gay forum.

I don't know if there's a charity gimmick I could do to help encourage your donations. I could sing? I could post my (horrible, horrible) feet? I could run a weird homebrew D&D game on the TG Discord?

Tell me what I need to do to get you to put this flesh-bean inside this medical man.

Reading the link makes it look like he needs 20K but the goal is 5K?

Please clarify goon sir.

I'm accidentally a suicide bomber!

This seems like a somewhat unworthy cause to make my kids give up their xmas presents for; anybody got a fast food joint we can rally behind or something?

Good question. I'm not sure how my relatives are handling this, so I asked my aunt. Here's the response I got:



So I guess the anxiety I've got runs in the family and they're scared of putting up a big number.

Edit: Additional info from another relative involved:

Your gimmick is really tiring and unfunny.

Google "is crow meat edible": Apparently, yes.

Results for "crow meat for sale" (I don't have a gun):



So one of us could fake-eat a fake-brain (two fakes cancel out, right) or deliberately not crow in the morning?

All human brains are actually crows.
