That seems like a very fine way to honour both your birthday and your rage!
Happy upcoming birthday, btw! From what I've experienced and seen with friends, turning 30 is excellent for many people (turning 40 = also great).
so this post happens to be very timely/convenient for me re: what to do for the portions I wanted to put toward political donations beyond ProPublica and Verified Voting and a handful of races I already had my eye on.
I really appreciate all the US political posts you've been doing here and at your own journal and the perspective you bring to bear - I've had such a hard time dealing with most mainstream media anything coverage of US politics this year that your posts have been such a gift: thank you.
I'm so glad they've been helpful. Honestly, I think having the distance of an ocean makes it a bit easier to process and look for ways action can be taken; my brain is much quicker to shut down in helpless despair and frustration when it comes to UK stuff. So I figure I'll pass on the helpful stuff when I can!

You've also seen the Great Slate and Grab Your Ballot slates, right? Lots of interesting options!
