Good picture. Together, we can punch the sun!
I'd be hesitant to generalize from normal people's motivations for giving to those of optimal philanthropists.
Do you think advocating optimal philanthropy is likely to yield greater returns than more direct ways to reduce existential risk? I could see it going either way, and it's hard to figure out what calculations to do to find out.
I decided to adopt "Together, we can punch the sun!" as a personal motto even before I scrolled back up and saw the relevant photo.
Now I just need to decide what it's a motto for.
It probably has something to do with that unpublished Gurren Lagaan crossover fic. ;)
