As you know, Paddy has mounting doctor bills, and TPC has mounting TPC bills.
We recently tried to update the look and mechanics of The Political Carnival, but ended up running into so many tech issues that we had to stop, go back to our old look, and hire someone to help us find our way out of our technical house of mirrors.
Which brings us to this:
We’re long overdue for our quarterly fundraiser, mainly because we are so reluctant to have our hands out, but, as Nickelodeon used to say, “A kid’s gotta do what a kid’s gotta do.”
So if you are able, if you are so inclined, please donate. Paddy, Lucian, and I have expenses up to our collective chins and can’t do this without your help.
Thank you ahead of time for your consistent kindness and generosity. Without you, there would be no us.

See that screen grab above from our TPC right sidebar? See that tiny little rectangle with the number 10,001,427? That’s the number of visitors The Political Carnival has had as of today. And for that, we thank you, our readers, with all our hearts.
Without you, we wouldn’t exist. Thank you for helping us succeed and grow.
Love,
Laffy and Paddy

Seriously, we’re giggling with disbelief. You know how we got here?
Terise in Alaska!!! I’ve got the emails, Gotta picked the number and the only t shirt ever made with the TPC logo is traveling far away, even before Gotta and I own one! We’re going to do this again in the next few days, and the only way to win one is to help us out with our fundraiser which is used keeping this thing churning, not cruises on the Mediterranean or booze. Okay, some of mine might go for booze, but not much.
C’mon people, we’re going to give away the next t shirt soon, so get your donation in to be in the running!
Now, if you’ll bear with us, we’re having a very necessary fundraiser; please help TPC continue to do what we do:
If we are one thing here at TPC, it’s being up front. We need to raise funds so we don’t have to worry about expenses for the next three months, both for site upkeep and our own mounting bills.
You can donate at any time by using the PayPal donate buttons in the sidebar (now with requested WePay!), or if you need a snail mail addy, feel free to email thepolicalcarnival@gmail.com.
In addition, if anyone wants to sponsor us for three months with an ad in the sidebar, please email Paddy. Since it’s an election year, any ad will be getting increased views.
BONUS! We’re doing something special this time around and giving away two of our brand spankin’ new TPC t-shirts to random donors! We’ll draw names out of the proverbial hat and let you know=. (You can’t even buy these yet.)
So, to be the one of the first IN THE WORLD to sport your Political Carnival t-shirt, drop a little coinage in the kitty!
Remember, without donations, we have no Political Carnival. We have no way to fight for you, for our principles, or just to make you laugh from time to time.
Please never forget that we truly appreciate you guys with or without the donations. Every single day.
