+Matthew Inman is thumbing his nose at a frivolous lawsuit and raising money for the National Wildlife Federation and the American Cancer Society. Pure genius! http://theoatmeal.com/blog/funnyjunk_letter
His target was 20K, and as of right now he has raised over $152K.

+Keith Cramer and I lost our Mother to cancer almost 10 years ago, so I love that the American Cancer Society will be benefiting. And, like my brother (who I stole most of this post from) I'm also a huge fan of fuzzy animals and stuff.
Fingers crossed that +Matthew Inman raises an obscene amount of money with operation #bearlove .
Thanks +Damian Sanchez for the post and +Keith Cramer for the share!

I heard back from FunnyJunk's lawyer, indirectly. He responded to +Rosa Golijan. He apparently tried to get the fundraiser taken down from IndieGoGo

I support this. The cancer and bear sex are secondary to the primary goal of flipping the bird to a sheisty lawyer.
