Some thoughts:
-based on some examples of the SPLC making outrageous claims (especially against Sam Harris and Maajid Nawaz), I don't consider them a good place to donate anymore.
-Some carbon offsets were for me and my wife, hence x2.
-I want to look in to doing carbon offsets with other organizations to try to "diversify".
-In 2019 I went on a bit of a nonproliferation streak, which will probably continue.
-This isn't meant to shame anyone who can't afford to donate, and isn't meant to garner praise. I just think we should be more open about how and where and why we donate, and try to keep track of it.
