http://greenwriters.com/2014/07/28/self-imposed-carbon-tax
A self-imposed carbon tax. July 28, 2014. In the meantime, I’ve come up with a plan for a self-imposed carbon tax (or perhaps fund is a better term), inspired in part by Daniel Greenberg and EarthDeeds. There are two areas that I’ve gotten tangled up in:. How many dollars to invest in work that addresses climate change (beyond my general attempts to live a high-quality, low-impact life and previously made charitable commitments). Where to invest those dollars. For July 2013-June 2014 (really ought to go ...

Why Isn’t Your Favorite Presidential Candidate Saying Anything About White Supremacy? | foodismurder
https://foodismurder.wordpress.com/2016/01/04/why-isnt-your-favorite-presidential-candidate-saying-anything-about-white-supremacy
Why Isn’t Your Favorite Presidential Candidate Saying Anything About White Supremacy? Party of the year. Bernie Sanders wants me to register as a Democrat so I can vote for him, which is absurd. He and I were in the same party – no party – until he wanted to be President. Changed, Bernie. That doesn’t mean I have to.

Food is Murder is the blog of Matt Chorpenning, who is the guitarist and worst singer in a band called Food is Murder (currently most famous for shitty covers of Radical Edward songs and intensely obscure inside jokes about bands). Matt has a fancy social work degree that allows him to run around trying to do good. He might even occasionally succeed at doing good, although he is kinda skeptical on this point. PS Matt is way into swearing and is only a little sorry if that fucks up your day.
