As most of you can probably tell by now, I set this Save Lucy profile up to support the
#SaveLucy effort from a different angle: crypto.
The crypto guys have been there for me since the beginning. They have been an essential part of this effort, and some are truly committed to seeing Lucy returned, using their knowledge of something that I know almost nothing about to help in whatever way they can.
I'm a normie. I don't do crypto. But I do appreciate the help.
This is me, Brendan (
@brendanmjones), writing. I set up this X (then Twitter) login years ago to keep an eye on some of the jihadi chatter around me. I just repurposed it for the new battle I'm fighting.
To those of you who have reached out with concerns that somebody is trying to profit off Lucy's story, I want to say thank you. You are doing so out of the goodness of your hearts. You are guarding my six. People will try to profit off a story like this, so please stay vigilant.
That confusing jumble of text you see at the top of my page? 👇

That's the unique identifier to direct people in the crypto community to where they can support our effort to get my dog back, and hopefully, save others when this is all said and done.
Where do things stand now? I'm feeling very optimistic. I wouldn't be surprised - I'm trying to balance my giddy excitement with sobriety, not wanting to count my chickens before they hatch, but barely able to contain myself - to see Lucy released as soon as this afternoon. We'll see.
What's next after that? I just want to take some time and focus on her. It's been seven weeks in a cell today. We have some catching up to do. When she's ready, and when I'm ready, I want to turn my guns to bear on the fight to
#SaveSnuggles.
@Herb_Minstrel and I are already thinking about a road trip to Arizona. One dog coming to the rescue of another. One veteran family coming to the aid of another in need.
Then there's the book I'm working on. I've hammered out a few chapters already. Honestly, I'm a man obsessed. I want to make the idea of the state euthanizing Lucy as unthinkable as the idea of the state killing Little Ann, Old Yeller, or Lassie. Pray that I will be up for the telling of her story.
Here's another preview of a part that I have written.
Stay tuned for good news, God willing.
