Please sign this petition to tell @DanaherCorp that their test prices are too much. Why should someone have to spend ALL their money just to get a test? Medicine should not be a luxury. #TimeFor5 #PeopleOverProfits

I fucking love fandom culture.

I love how I can be absolutely obsessed with a show, a book, a YouTube channel and there will be hundreds of others just like me freaking out over the same dumb shit.

I love how happy fandoms can make me, scrolling through fanart and reading fanfics until my eyes blur at 3am.

I love how I can determine parts of my life by what I was obsessed with at the time. How those fandoms made me feel, what they taught me, what they got me through.

I love that I can look around my flat and see evidence of all my past and present obessions, from signed posters to collectable box sets, figures and books.

I love how I can come back to a fandom after years and pick up where I left off, finding joy in catching up on everything I've missed out on.

I fucking love fandom culture.

I don't think John has posted here yet, but this is a call to action to put pressure on Johnson & Johnson who are needlessly extending a patent for Bedaquiline, a drug that could save hundreds of thousands of lives per year.

What a good opportunity for tumblr to try to negate some very bad John Green karma while also fighting for a good cause, yeah?

(Action items from the doobly-doo)

Tell Johnson and Johnson that evergreening their patent on bedaquiline, which will deny millions of people access to live-saving treatment, is a violation of their corporate credo! (NOTE: this one is quite lengthy and confusing and that is by design! They are trying to limit the number of complaints by putting so many barriers between you and submitting the report. Just keep going! Answer the questions to the best of your ability and get the report in.)

Tell them on twitter!

Tell them on this other twitter!

Tell them on facebook!

Tell them on instagram!

Me, scrolling tumblr: Wow, nobody’s doing it like John Green.

My mom: How so?

Me: Last week he coordinated with public health activists to mobilize his fan base to pressure a multinational corporation into reducing the price of tuberculosis tests from $10 to less than $8, which will save impoverished health systems hundreds of millions of dollars over the next ten years. This week he’s selling a chia pet shaped like his head.

idk if it's still considered "cringe" to be a Nerdfighter/fan of Hank and John Green, but man, if you think it's cringe, you need to take a long look at why you think that.

Nerdfighters are some of the most legit folks out there, and that is in no small part due to the mindset and attitude of compassion, kindness, a hunger to learn, a drive to help others, and a goal to make the world a better place in at least some small way that Hank and John have actively encouraged and cultivated over the last 16.5 years of their channel. Neither the Greens nor Nerdfighteria are perfect, but they all try, in my experience, and literally no one in the world is perfect, so that's all any of us can do.

I appreciate Hank and John and the Nerdfighters so much, and I'm so proud to have, even if it was often absently and from a distance, watched both the brothers and the community grow and develop since those first daily vlogs in 2007.

And if you still somehow think there's something embarrassing or "cringe" about being part of a community that on the whole so embodies and tries to live by the ideas that you can always learn and grow and it's never too late to start, the philosophy of "what we owe to each other" and how we're all in this together and therefore we should try to help each other however we can, the dream of repairing the world and leaving it better for those who come after us than it was when we got here, and the idea that each of us has inherent worth and value simply by being alive?

IDK man, that sounds like a you problem. Might want to consider why that makes you want to cringe at it. Just a thought.

Don't forget to be awesome, y'all.

Hey y'all, it's P4A time!

The Project for Awesome (or P4A) is an annual event where we raise awareness of charities that make the world a little bit of a better place and we raise money to redistribute to charities voted on by our community. Legally speaking, the Project for Awesome is a project of the Foundation to Decrease World Suck (or FTDWS), a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The FTDWS exists to fundraise for the benefit of other nonprofits and only awards grants to organizations that are 501(c)(3) or foreign equivalent classified charities. The nine board members are John Green, Hank Green, Mike Green, Marie Ann Fernandez-Silva, Valerie Barr, Taylor Behnke, Benny Fine, Rosianna Halse Rojas, and Angela Lin. In 2024, we raised a grand total of $3,530,889.25, including several generous matching donations. 50% of donations went to Save the Children and Partners in Health, and 50% of donations were split between 30 charities chosen by the Project for Awesome community. You can see a list of all the charities that have received P4A grants here.

You can watch the live stream here:

You can also go to the perks page and donate using this link!

I have gotten the digital download bundle for the past several years, and it's a nice little treat that keeps delivering throughout the year. But they also have lots of other perks, so you should definitely check it out!

cleaning supplies from Good.store! I repeat, cleaning supplies from Good.store! This is not a drill!

good.store is the one company I will happily become a free marketer for because I love their products and all the profits go to charity. They just launched a cleaning supplies line named after Hank Green's old blog EcoGeek, with tons of solid-form cleaning supplies, meaning they don't have to ship a bunch of water around for no reason!

(Also, reset the clock!)

Pizza Potato. Becuase hope is still the correct response to the miracle of dog consciousness.

I have been really enjoying learning illistrator, and drawing many many dogs.
