Slightly off-topic, but does anybody know the best bang for your buck when it comes to ethical chocolate?

I'm having post-Halloween regret about giving money to Mars, but my young nephew loves chocolate (and so do I, frankly) and I want to be able to buy some on a semi-regular basis without breaking the bank.

LDS Tithing Lawsuit: Financial Transparency, Community Trust, and the Stakes for Charitable Giving

A high-stakes court hearing this week has put the financial practices of the LDS Church under intense scrutiny. The allegations center on how tithing funds, donations, and investments have been used and reported, raising critical questions about financial transparency. This case matters, not just to members of the Church, but to anyone invested in the ethics and accountability of faith-based…

I got in a discussion the other day about investing, because someone wanted to know why I had no investments and wouldn't stop till I answered them. I told them I cared about ethics, and they were like, "Well then you'll never be able to invest in anything!! And you'll be poor forever!!"

Is ethical investment (not just investing in greenwashed companies) possible, at all? or should i resign myself to 'being poor forever'?

This is SUCH a fascinating discussion. Which is why we covered it on an episode of our podcast! You can listen or read the transcript here:

Season 4, Episode 1: “Index Funds Include Unethical Companies. Can I Still Invest in Them, or Does That Make Me a Monster?” 

It's a nuanced topic, which is why I'm not going to try to condense it into a short answer for Tumblr.

An open letter to the U.S. Congress

IMPEACH TRUMP. AGAIN.

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

Beginning Day 1 of Trump’s second administration, Congress must open an impeachment investigation based on the following grounds:

1. Violations of the Emoluments Clauses The Emoluments Clauses (U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 9, Clause 8; and Article II, Section 1, Clause 7) prohibit presidents from profiting from foreign or domestic governments. The Founders understood these clauses to provide a critical safeguard against corruption, particularly corruption of the executive by foreign powers. Trump has violated these clauses by refusing to divest from his business holdings. At least five foreign governments pay a combined $2 million per month in fees for their units in Trump World Tower; and because all five of these foreign governments are currently paying Trump these monthly fees, Trump is in violation of the Foreign Emoluments Clause from the moment he took the oath of office.

2. Corrupt and Unlawful Campaign Practices Trump’s 2024 re-election campaign included violations such as offering regulatory favors to oil and gas executives for donations, coordinating unlawfully with super PACs, and accepting prohibited contributions from Elon Musk via X (formerly known as Twitter) and via Musk’s million-dollar “lottery” scheme that paid out prizes only to individuals who would publicly support Trump. He also engaged in racist, xenophobic rhetoric by referring to immigrants in Aurora, Colorado as “blood thirty criminals” from whom voters have to be “rescued”, threatened physical violence, including murder, against political opponents, a U.S. military commander, journalists, and protesters, and spread dangerous disinformation about U.S. hurricane disaster response among other things.

3. Abuse of Power and Obstruction of Justice Trump’s pardons for January 6 insurrectionists—including seditious conspirators—constitute an abuse of the pardon power. Trump himself engaged in insurrection on January 6, 2021, inciting hundreds of violent insurrectionists to storm the Capitol in order to try to overturn an election that he lost. His co-insurrectionists seized control of the Capitol, disrupted the peaceful transfer of power, assaulted law enforcement and journalists, vandalized the Capitol and individual congressional offices, and threatened the lives and safety of our elected officials and law enforcement. He has blocked investigations and accountability efforts, shielding himself and allies from the consequences of their actions in the insurrection. In the face of a president abusing his power, as he has done here, Congress has a responsibility to follow the mandate of Article II, Section 4 (the Impeachment Clause) of the US Constitution and initiate an impeachment inquiry.

Congress must act decisively: By initiating impeachment proceedings, Congress will uphold its constitutional duty to safeguard democracy and hold the president accountable. Failure to act risks setting a dangerous precedent and further eroding public trust. The time to act is now.

your path has nothing to do with anybody else, my friend.

if your friends are all graduating, but you aren't even close, or planning to? that's okay.

if your friends are all getting married, but you aren't in a situation or place for that to happen? that's okay.

if your friends are in a better place financially? that's okay.

don't get me wrong, it sucks fat balls watching the people around you have something you've been working really hard for/ something that you really want- but their success has no relation to yours. it doesn't mean that you did anything wrong, or that they did anything right. it's two separate stories that really have no relation to each other except for the fact that they live in the same dimension.

stop beating yourself up for shit like that. i promise you are doing a great job, and you're where you are meant to be.
