  1. "The #EffectiveAltruist movement has had a terrible year. Its most prominent member, #SamBankmanFried was just found guilty of all 7 charges against him. But the FTX fiaso wasn't the only scandal that rocked EA.."

  2. TIL that Sean McElwee, the now disgraced Democratic pollster and think tanker, is an EA (#EffectiveAltruist) wapo.st/40C1dzP

  3. I just wrote an article for #EffectiveAltruism forum about the work @trans_rescue is doing to help at-risk LGBTQ+ people of all sorts escape Uganda. I had the opportunity to talk with @AnneOgborn about what's needed to safely transport someone out of Uganda and help them get settled and on their feet in their new country, so if you're curious about Trans Rescue's work, it may be worth a read.

    For any #EffectiveAltruist folks here on Mastodon, my takeaway was that, because Trans Rescue was in the right place at the right time with existing expertise and resources to help LGBTQ+ people in East Africa, they're able to do this important work very cost effectively.
