The Mastodon For Harris campaign has raised close to $500,000 within two weeks of being live. It is probably the largest attempt for political organizing on the Fediverse, and may provide a playbook for other efforts going forward.

I’m not American, What’s with the coconut?

It was a blend of a bit of quirky humor followed by a more profound message that Kamala Harris attributes to her mother: "You think you just fell out of a coconut tree? You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you."

It's a reference to an anecdote that Harris apparently uses frequently.

That's all I know, never cared enough to learn a politicians' lore.
