Why you must act TODAY (everyone)

Several of the above charitable organizations have matching donations that will increase your donation 2-3x IF you donate by end of day TODAY 2019-12-31 US Timezones.

See the 2x/3x next to the @-names for which organizations and how much.


Why you must act TODAY (US friends)

It’s the last day of 2019. By donating today, you may be able to itemize your donations and deduct them from your 2019 Federal taxes (IANAA, talk to your accountant regarding itemizing vs using the standard deduction).

You can donate to all of these organizations online and get an email receipt in minutes (I am donating/renewing to all the above personally).

See each Twitter profile above for their site/donation URLs, except @CalAcademy inexplicably doesn’t link to theirs: https://www.calacademy.org/support-the-academy

[Notes] The bot scare

Holy shit, the lack of radio support underground in NYC messes up my mental timing around communications on the go. In Cali, I got used to doing a lot of it in transit. Can't do that in NYC if in motion and not overground. Even this tweet is late.
Why is it every time I ask a question at the Post Office, the woman at the counter literally screams that I want a supervisor? No wonder they feel they need a glass partition between us.

I just published "The Bot Scare", an essay about how the word "bot" is used in American political discourse. Among other things I compare it to the use of "Red" during the first Red Scare. tinysubversions.com/notes/the-bot-…

The 2010s were a heck of a decade, huh? I’m hoping the 2020s will be marked by love and kindness instead. I don’t know if I’ll post a decade retrospective but wow, my life sure had some pretty major events.
Y'all not answering phones then getting mad when I send voice notes back.
