Momentum is slipping. Time to get organized and put the war chest to work.
-
Honest take, eleven days in. We came out of the cancellation hot and built something real. But the curve is bending the wrong way, and if we coast we lose the window. Three things, plainly.
1. Momentum is slipping.
The main petition is at about 83,700, roughly 56% of the 150k goal, and it has roughly doubled since the news broke. That is the good news. The less good news is that the daily rate has fallen to around 1,900 a day and is still dropping. Surges always taper; a tapering surge with no second act just fades quietly. People need a reason to come back, not only to sign once and leave.2. We need organized engagement, not scattered effort.
The early weeks split our energy across half a dozen competing petitions and channels. We are consolidating now, which is right, but "organized" has to mean more than one petition. It means a steady cadence so there is a reason to show up every week, a single clear ask everyone repeats, and coordinated pushes timed to land together instead of one-offs that spike and vanish. Scattered effort at this scale is just noise.3. Put the money to good use.
We have raised around $11,100. That is real money, and the people who gave it deserve to see it work. So far one action has shipped (the LA banner flyover) and most of the fund is still sitting. A war chest that idles is a wasted opportunity while attention is still high. The planned high-visibility actions (Comic-Con, Times Square, the balloon flight) are exactly the kind of thing that earns press and gives people a reason to re-engage, but they have to actually happen: funded, scheduled, executed, not left as line items.The point.
Volume alone was never going to flip Amazon. The series died for a strategic reason, and the execs who wanted it are gone. What the numbers and the money CAN do is prove demand loud enough that a credible buyer or industry ally cannot ignore it, and keep this in the public eye long enough to matter. That takes organization and momentum, both of which we are at risk of losing.This board is built to put the real choices on the record. The current actions are up as open items. Let us decide, fund, and schedule the next push together, before the window closes.
