The Get Out the Vote Inner Hive Drive [1]

[]

Date: 2024-08-14  

If you’ve ever thought about joining Tom the Dancing Bug’s INNER HIVE (or even if you haven’t), this would be the time to do it.

Inner Hive members get each weekly Tom the Dancing Bug comic strip at least a day before it’s published anywhere online, plus commentary, sneak peeks, process, pics, extra exclusive comics, jokes, palindromes, giveaways, additional comics, “content”, juicy gossip, weather forecasts, “other stuff,” cautionary tales, puppy pics, hot takes, etc., etc.

But for everyone who signs up for the INNER HIVE from today (August 14) through September 9, I will donate $25 to Spread the Vote, a nonprofit organization that helps people “empower themselves to be heard at the polls with IDs, registration, education, and turnout.” $25 is more than double the amount of the base sign-up/initial membership dues on MailChimp.

That’s right. Join today and I’ll donate more than DOUBLE the amount of the base sign-up/initial membership dues to Spread the Vote!

What does Spread the Vote do?

“OBTAIN IDS FOR ELIGIBLE VOTERS IN VOTER ID STATES

MAKE ELECTION GUIDES FOR REAL PEOPLE

CREATE DIGITAL AND REAL-WORLD EDUCATIONAL TOOLS

HELP ELIGIBLE INCARCERATED VOTERS TO CAST A VOTE BY MAIL

WORK WITH PARTNERS AROUND THE COUNTRY TO ACHIEVE OUR MISSION

HELP VOTERS MAKE AND EXECUTE A PLAN TO VOTE”

You can join the Inner Hive through any of the below platforms; click for more information or to join:

PATREON (monthly or annual billing) (currently the most popular way to join)

(monthly or annual billing) MAILCHIMP / CAMPAIGNZEE (billing every six months)

(billing every six months) SUBSTACK (monthly or annual billing)

If you don’t want to join through one of these platforms, you can make a single payment directly to me for a prepaid two-year non-recurring membership, also triggering the $25 donation. This membership does not automatically renew.

More info on Inner Hive membership can be found here.

So not only do you get early, exclusive access to stupid comics, exclusive access to stupid commentary on those stupid comics, and other stupid stuff, you help marginalized and vulnerable people get out and VOTE.

You might even save America!

Tom the Dancing Bug was designed as a newspaper comic strip, and with the collapse of the newspaper market, the Inner Hive has been absolutely critical in keeping it viable. Every Inner Hive member is helping to keep Tom the Dancing Bug in existence, every single week. I deeply appreciate all who join, and I do my ding-dong best to make sure members get value and are deliriously happy with their membership.

Please join the Tom the Dancing Bug team. Be the first on your block to get each week’s comic. AND MAKE ME DONATE!

Thank you indeed,

Ruben Bolling
