Lastly, I sent Kickstarter management a letter with United's form:

Solidarity y'all!
(Finally) donated to Kickstarter United's Solidarity Fund.
Had to fight PayPal to log in. Thought about using a bank transfer instead, but that was just a different payment processor. Boo.
Solidarity with Kickstarter United from this SEIU 1199 member. ✊❣️

Crowdfunding Carnival: October, 2025
Welcome to the Crowdfunding Carnival for October! We’re in spooky season, but more importantly, con season has wound down and the game designers have wound up. Tons of solid campaigns are on Kickstarter and Backerkit, and we have a few majors and some interesting tie-ins as well. Before we get going here, it’s worth noting that as of today, Kickstarter United, the union representing Kickstarter employees, is going on strike as they have been working without a contract since July. The union is looking to enshrine working hour expectations, especially important as Kickstarter has been working on a four-day workweek for the last three years. Any allowances to ‘revert to normal operations’ by management would effectively constitute a 25% increase in workload with no adjustment in compensation. As seen on their website Kickstarter United is not asking anyone to boycott Kickstarter or withhold support from creators, so our normal monthly review will go on. That said, please visit the union’s website to see what you can do to support. With that news out of the way, let’s look at some campaigns.
