When the Justice Department indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center in April on controversial fraud charges, the storied civil rights organization faced a major threat to its lifeblood
— the flow of donor dollars.
Not because it was convicted or because the Internal Revenue Service revoked its tax-exempt status.
Not even because individual donors stopped writing checks.
Instead, three Wall-Street-affiliated grantmaking giants each made a decision,
one they ref…

Wall Street’s Nonprofits Use Selective, Opaque Logic to Defund Charities
A quarter of all individual giving in the U.S. is made through donor-advised funds. A ProPublica investigation reveals how these high-stakes decisions to cut off funding often leave charities, donors and the public in the dark.

Such a brilliant idea for charity shops!

By the way, #SGDQ starts tomorrow!
Sumner Games Done Quick is the summer half of the biannual charity speedrunning marathon, raising money for Medicins Sans Frontiers (Doctors Without Borders). If you enjoy videogames, it's always got at least a couple of really amazing runs to watch, and the way that the community has remained trans-inclusive in the face of gamer bro criticism is a beautiful thing to see.
Looking through the schedule (https://gamesdonequick.com/schedule/) there are some cool things like Okami, Lena's Inception, Timespinner, En Garde!, Dread Delusion, Pseudoregalia, Evoland, Backyard Baseball '97, Rose and Camellia, and more than is practical to list here...
Super Metroid low% Ice should be cool (hah).
Beyond enjoying watching the runs, I often find some new indie game I want to play in the marathon. Plus the community atmosphere of the longer RPG runs is super cozy, even from afar.
I'll probably be watching a bunch of stuff via VODs instead of live; once things are uploaded you can access videos right from the schedule is that's more your jam.

I even bought some actual books printed on actual paper. Its a bit sad, but DRM these days is somewhere between hard and impossible to break, unless you own Amazon hardware, and the trees will just have to take it.
They also don't drain the battery.
I think I'm moving to paper in general. Mostly only reading in bed anyway.
Which is ironic, because I will definitely take the paper books to a charity shop when I have read them so they will be shared whereas if they gave me a DRM-free copy I could read with my open hardware I doubt anyone other than me would read it.

I wonder if you could use this 'zipper' to make a portable platform. Flexible until zipped, then very rigid. Interconnected with now taut fabric for stability.
Seems like something a charity could give homeless people to be able to sleep on those evil 'anti-homeless' crap they put on otherwise flat surfaces.
