I'm in a crabby mood so,
lemme ask you something--why are we (as in fandom, not the royal we) supposed to donate to Jensen's baby fund? Because when celebs say, 'oh please donate to XX charity', what they really mean is 'don't send your stupid gifts to us we don't want that shit'.
Come on, these folks make more money than god, or at least more money than probably my flist's combined salary. What they spend on stuff for their kids could feed someone like me for a month, probably two. Three. Why would you (as in random nutjob you, not *you* specifically,) even contemplate taking your hard-earned pelf and spending it on someone who you don't know and again, does not want your shit and does not shop at the places you shop? Even if you get your Aunt Madge to knit one of her famous afghans (or however you make an afghan) that everyone in town just adores and hopes like anything to get one for their own spawn, celebs are gonna--well, more than likely never see it--don't they have people for stuff like that? I know if I was a celeb I'd have people for that.
I guess some folks feel a connection with the actors they see on their screen every week. I know I do. I feel this deep connection with Jensen and Jared, and it expresses itself in writing and reading some really nasty stuff about what they do with their down time. I know, heart-warming, right? *waves hand* Told you I was crabby.
In totally unrelated news, I am very much enjoying our watch of The Walking Dead. BG and I are totally immersed. I'm going deaf from her constant fear-filled shrieks. Very amusing! And the little kid, Carl? Holy shit, that kid's a G! There's a little Dean for you!
Okay, I'm actually going to post this instead of deleting it.

Is that a cross-fandom phenomena or unique to SPN? I've never heard of baby fundraisers before. I can imagine with all the Cons they do, Jensen getting progressively buried under a pile of teddy bears!

I'll donate to any charity they like if they'll make out with each other on Youtube! Shirts optional.

Let's face it, we would have put SpN fandom to shame. So many, many hand-knit Super-shield onsies in our nation's landfills....

Or if Tom gave up the charade and swept Michael away to get gay-married and move to a lovely little split-level in Connecticut and adopt a ton of chubby little babies....
I'd cheerfully fund that! And forget babies, I want to see Tom in a Supes onesie!
