Please help these awesome people!

 Ok, so a while back I met some really nice people at a convention (the Libertarian Convention, actually ... heh heh ...) who are trying to make a cool-sounding movie about a dystopian future and a hot anarchist lady being chased by a government employee. 

Watch the cute video that explains things far better than I could.

I'm bringing this up because they are in desperate need of money. They've been fundraising for a while and people have been pledging money ... but if they don't hit a certain mark they won't get any of the pledges. Please please please PLEASE at least consider tossing them the five-dollar minimum. (Hey, if worst comes to worst, you'll keep your money, right?)

Those of you who can't or don't want to shill out money to a group of strange animators you've only just heard about, please pimp this to everybody and anybody you know, so perhaps THEY will donate.

It's just ... this sounds like it could be a really cool story, and they were wicked nice to me (they played hallway baseball with me at the convention with a poster case as a bat and a crumpled-up bits of post-it notes as the ball!) and they deserve support.


(Also, I spent an inordinate amount of time today twisting my hair into an odango style - I was going for those cute bun-pigtail things that Kaylee wears in the first episode but my hair didn't quite get there. I NEVER mess with my hair ... it was kinda fun ...)

That sounds awesome!
I know, right? Please help them!

On a far more trivial note, I've always wanted to try doing my hair in odango, but it's way too short for that kind of style. Maybe when I inevitably decide to grow it out.
I was worried mine would be too short, but it turned out it was just right! *grinz*
How short is your hair? I got enraged at mine when I was a kid and got a bob-cut for a long time. It was a pain when I decided to grow it out, for months I couldn't tie it back or get it out of my face.

That's tricky: shorter is easier to manage (and you can dye it more easily) but if it's longer you can do things with it. When I was a kid I hated doing stuff to my hair so I just didn't deal with it, now I'm interested in doing things with it.
