Thank you so much to everyone who donated! In the end we raised $32.8k, or about 1% of AWF's total donations for 2024. Based on the historical cost-effectiveness of AWF's grants, I expect the money will greatly benefit the lives of hundreds of thousands of farmed animals!
It's that time of year again 🎉

Another virtual fundraiser for the EA Animal Welfare Fund! Help reduce the suffering of animals while maybe increasing ours a bit (drinking huel)

Just donated. Don’t know if that means I qualify as terminally online; but at least it will help animals! Props to the organizers 🫶

I was the one who came up with "Vegan Hot Ones" so if we don't hit that goal it means you personally hate me

It's kind of annoying how idealic Vermont is when it snows

Maybe I'll never go viral because all my hot takes are about analytic philosophy

Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is probably my favorite comic of all time

I think it really captures, sometimes subtly, a kind of hopeful existential I deeply feel -- while also making Supergirl unbelievably cool

Kieron Gillen wrote an entertaining Professor X in his final X-Men series, and then somehow radically one-uped himself with Etienne Lux
