Houston, we apparently don't have a problem because this podcast is working fine. Before we

continue my first ever journey through

the Harry Potter series, just a few quick announcements. First, it is the first episode in July,

meaning that it is donation time here at Potterless. We donate $1 for every patron over at our

team at patreon.com slash potterless, and at the time of recording, we have 849 patrons, meaning

we will be donating $849 to love does not exclude association.

Now, this is a Polish charity with a Polish name that I was going to butcher.

So I went with the English translation.

This charity was suggested to me by listener Ola, who taught me a lot about the charity and the situation that's going over in Poland.

Marriage equality is not great over there.

And it really saddened me to learn about what that situation is like.

There's a really great New York Times article out there if you want to learn more about it.

But this association does a lot of great work.

They've already helped put some legislation into action with the Warsaw mayor signing an LGBT plus declaration, which has helped at the local level. but they're trying to do more to educate and promote the idea of marriage equality in Poland. It's a fantastic charity, and if you want to learn more about them, you can go to mnw.org. So thank you, Ola, for the suggestion, and thanks patrons for making this donation possible. And speaking of patrons, we have a whole lot of new patrons to welcome to the team this week.
