Now that 2024 is coming to the end and Christmas around the corner, have you considered any donations to be given? If yes where?

Yeah, I've considered it. Mostly Internet Archive, I think they need money the most right now.

I'm donating on a monthly basis: To four NGOs and to the devs of the OS and apps I'm using regularly.

I've donated a decent sum of money to the food pantry at my church.

Not really donations per se, but I’ll probably re-up my giving to ProPublica and Democracy Now. An aggressive and combative press will only be more critical in the coming years. Fuck corporate media. It’s not in their best interest to do their jobs properly, so we need to stop supporting them with our attention, and instead support independent outlets with our attention and our dollars.

I always donate to a local activist group which focuses largely on health equity. I might also donate to NPR this year. And probably to one of the local groups which help the homeless, but my partner usually handles that one.
