As did the chicken:

THE TEXAS OBSERVER LIVES

"The Texas Observer's parent nonprofit board... unanimously voted to rescind layoffs after seeing this successful effort to raise funds.

"That's right. The Observer will not lay off staff on Friday, and the publication will not cease the production of journalism.

"Take a moment to reflect on this astonishing accomplishment that YOU made possible."

This is why you _do not_ just _accept_ this shit. It _does not have to happen_.

TWO DAYS. TWO. FUCKING. DAYS. IS ALL IT TOOK.

I mean sure, now there's a longer-term effort, and that'll have to work too, and hey @TexasObserver you really need to get that Patreon spun up and running for reasons we talked about before.

But today?

Two days.

Two days to _victory_.

Don't just accept this shit. You don't have to.

This here? This is called _proof_.
