Hey there SPNers!Okay, so I'm guessing that many of you Supernatural addicts are not only fans of Beloved Show, but also rank as Misha Minions [if you are new to Fandom and dont know what the hell I am talking about please read THIS]The last tweets that Master Misha has made were focused on raising some dough as a stimulus act, calling it Minion Stimulus.
The big clown that he is, you would think that he was probably drunk and half kidding about this stimulus shiz.
Turns out, he was very serious about this. In fact, after finding out about Minion efforts to support his rad idea by the creation of , our Great Overlord was so touched that he has proposed a 6-step plan for the stimulus shiz on the site. He even became a site member ~ his member pic is soo adorable ~ and posted his big plan there!
Here is what he posted :
I think it's great that you guys put this site together and that you have the same enthusiasm for this project that i do. I read the text of your front page to several friends and i was truly touched to see that you had made these efforts. I am genuinely moved. (Okay, enough sentimentality, let's get down to business.)
I looked into US government stimulus money, and while we can get a not-for-profit to extend it's umbrella to us: it looks like a lot of the criteria for applying are tough to meet—often the organization must have a proven track-record in a specific area, or must have certain resources at it’s disposal. I am very busy these days and wouldn't have time to apply, but if any of you are interested in pursuing this avenue, i would be 100% supportive.
What i think might be a better option, however, is raising the money ourselves and allocating our resources to whichever causes we deem worthy without having to worry about government oversight. There are 6 elements. Here's what i envision:
1. We collectively decide on a few good charitable projects to fund.
2. We participate in collective art projects, which cost little or nothing to produce.
3. We establish a Minion welfare system whereby we identify a few minions in need.
4. Everyone sends a couple of dollars to the treasurer (whoever that ends up being)--just $5 each would amount to $150,000!
5. We distribute our treasury monies to our charitable projects and to the Minions in need.
6. Repeat steps 1-5.
I imagine we can allocate the money like this: 60% charitable projects, 30% to minions in need, 9.5% to art/misc, and .5% to embezzlement/graft.
If whomever is running this site is interested in pursing these agenda items further, good. We'll need infrastructure and organizational talents.
I am going to be away for the next couple of weeks. Talk to you in the New Year.
Happy Holidays. Keep up the great work!
