My family revitalizes abandoned homes, maintains them, and rents them fairly. I'm very proud of our work.

We also play games of all descriptions, especially on a table.

I like math and science most, but am interested in everything.

Senseless arguments!? You came at me! Don't start nothin', won't be nothin'.

You didn't say that before, we've only just started talking. And yes, these charities have been this way for a very long time. Which is too say: far from perfect. I'd rather such wealth not concentrate in the first place. No one should rely on the beneficence of the rich.

Lots of rich people (or their kids) found charities (in name at least), maybe they do some good, but they're still in charge of the money; they haven't "given it away," not really, but their tax burden goes down as if they have. I'd rather they pay taxes and let the public (in theory) have control.

I used to work in a very specific medical billing subsidiary of United Healthgroup. We gotchu.

That's not charity, dude. Take a meeting with MacKenzie Scott. Or heck, just write the check to her instead.

Oh my god! *WE* are the doctors too! (Not me, I'm sure, and probably not you, but, y'know, us.)

This is a great theme for
• a children's book
• a web comic
• a cartoon show
• a boardgame
• a videogame
• a weird action figure collection
And I want them all.

I did the math and that is an infinity percent increase.

*write, obviously, but wow what an annoying typo that is.

At least we can take that graphic and teach it to our children. It's not good enough but it's all I've got.
