The Boulder feels you should support RAINN

[rydra_wong]

Via jadedmusings, a spot of unexpected awesome in the day:

Mick Foley, the professional wrestler who provided the voice for The Boulder, has been working as an online hotline volunteer for RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network).

He's encouraging people to vote for RAINN to win a grant from Pepsi so they can expand their Spanish-language services.

Tera does not feel conflicted about this development at all. In fact, she feels it is awesome.

[recessional]

The M agrees with the Tera, and adds that her heart is definitely warmed.

The Tera skipped class the day articles were covered at The The Boulder School of Eloquence--she is ashamed. She's had much more use for this Toph icon than she thought when she first uploaded it.

The Tera also likes the M's icon.

[recessional]

The M feels that the Tera need not be ashamed, as the impulse to skip class is universal and difficult to fight, although the M also feels that the Tera has a fantastic icon.

The M loves the scene her own icon comes from better than many in the series, and feels that this statement stands for itself.

The list of people I care about who have substantial connections to professional wrestling just doubled.

I just saw a new article about Mick Foley and RAINN on slate.com, which made me go "awww" a lot!
