When people call from charities asking for donations or for me to increase my monthly contribution, I get high off the change in their mood when I can say yes. They always sound tired and hopeless while trying to hide it at the beginning and then they're so energized and I can hear the smile in their voice. It's like "fuck yeah, I did that." I have no idea what the success rate is for those calls, presumably low, I might've just made someone's whole day and helped a good cause at the same time.
Fuck altruism purists. I say it's right and good to feel good about doing good.
P.S. join me and donate to a Native charity this Thanksgiving.
