There are about 10,000 TB cases in the US every year. Instead of demonizing marginalized people, you can help change that by encouraging your 15k followers to call their Congress members and demand that they save USAID, NIH, and the CDC. Thanks!
meme. One astronaut looks at the Earth and says "tuberculosis is in the US?" A second astronaut behind them points a gun at the back of the first astronaut's head and says "always has been" A plot of tuberculosis cases and rates by birth origin in the United States from 2010 to 2024. Cases go down from 2010 to 2020, then start rising again. The majority of cases are among people not born in the U.S.

Marco Rubio wants us to think that letting babies get HIV is a core national interest of the United States
just text: Those programs "spent tends of billions of dollars in ways that did not serve, (and in some cases even harmed), the core national interests of the United States", Rubio wrote.

New #p4a2025 plot available: you can see the bump in views when your video gets featured! You can tell it had a pretty huge effect on my video. tbfightertofu.github.io/p4a/charity_...
a plot of likes, comments, and views as a function of hour of P4A. Likes, comments, and views are pretty much flat the whole time, except for a sudden jump right at an arrow that says "featured"

A message for #Danaher:
Brian David Gilbert holding a large sign that is resting on top of his round glasses. He has his mouth wide open in an O, and his eyes are wide open. Photoshopped onto the sign is "TB testing shouldn't be a luxury"

Okay, last updates to my #P4A website, just under the wire:
1. You can now filter the table by tag, and you can filter out charities that aren't eligible for votes this year
2. Plots!! tbfightertofu.github.io/p4a/votes.html
a table of charities, tags, annual revenue, and other stats. The tags are links, and the title of the page now says "health", and all of the charities have the tag "health". There is also a link saying "include ineligible charities". All charities in the table have a video this year. a plot called "votes and views". It shows comments, likes, views, and votes slowly increasing from hour -72 to hour -30, then a big uptick in likes and views from hour -30 to hour -13. There are 600 comments, 7000 likes, 78000 views, and 62000 votes at the current time, 13 hours before the start of Project for awesome.

And if a video has been featured on the website this year, it'll show up in lime green!
a screenshot of a webpage titled Limbs for Life, like the screenshot in the previous post. This one has one video, but it is in a lime green box and is labeled "featured on website at 2/11/2025, 7:50 PM"

Clicking on a charity will give you more details, including when they've received grants from P4A before. I recommend visiting the website of the charity before voting, which can provide more context that videos don't always share, such as religious activity. 3/
A webpage with the title Ecology Project International. In yellow, a box says "environment." Blue links go to vote, website, charity navigator, propublica, and guidestar. Annual revenue, a list of grants, and number of videos are linked. In the bottom is a box with the title 2025, and six video thumbnails, titles, and users.

If you'd rather browse #P4A charities by topic or size, here's a table. You can sort by any column or search using the search box! tbfightertofu.github.io/p4a/charity_... 2/
a table with the columns charity, tags, annual revenue, total grants, number of grants, most recent grant, videos this year. There is a search box. The first charity shown is habibi works, with the tags art, human services, and refugees.

Voting is open for #P4A2025! If you're looking for charities to vote for, I've built a site for people who are feeling lucky. tbfightertofu.github.io/p4a/roulette... 1/
a screenshot of a webpage showing 11 buttons. In the section called moderator's choice, the buttons are featured video and random video.

You can search for charities by name or category, and you can sort by number of videos, charity size, and how much P4A money they've received in the past. You can also go deeper into each charity and see video examples and links to charity ratings sites. tbfightertofu.github.io/p4a/charity_...
a website titled "Against Malaria Foundation". It shows tags Health, Malaria, and Voluntary Health Associations in yellow bubbles, links Website, Charity Navigator, ProPublica, and Guidestar and blue bubbles. It shows Annual Revenue: 62 million dollars, received 8 grants totaling 200 thousand dollars, and a list of dates and values. At the bottom of the screen are thumbnails of youtube videos from Project For Awesome 2024.

Nerdfighters! I hope you're working on your #P4A videos. But if you're stuck trying to figure out what charity to pick, or need some video inspiration, I made a website for you. tbfightertofu.github.io/p4a/charity_...
a screenshot of a plain website titled "P4A charities". It shows a table that lists charity, website, tags, annual revenue, total grants, number of grants, most recent grant, videos thie year, videos since 2024, and last featured.

P4A video is done 💪💪💪I can't wait to see everybody's videos! Get cracking, folks, because the charities you love deserve a spotlight.
a screenshot that reads "your video will be set to public on January 25, 2025 at 6:00 AM," above a video called "APOPO - Project for Awesome 2025". A cute rat on a purple background peeks out of the corner of the thumbnail.
