Star-studded Time's Up charities spent big on salaries, little on helping victims @Alyssa_Milano @MiraSorvino @GloriaSteinem https://t.co/m5kM0W1UjE via @nypost

The organization, which is comprised of the Times Up Foundation and @TIMESUPNOW, raised $3,670,219 in 2018, its founding year, but spent $1,407,032 on salaries and only $312,001 on the @TimesUpLegal Defense Fund for people who have experienced sexual harassment.
Time’s Up Now, the lobbying arm of the organization, also spent $157,155 on conferences “designed to build community and spark critical conversations about gender equity,” tax filings show.
In addition to posh conferences, Time’s Up Now spent $288,007 on advertising, and $940,328 on “legal” costs, with the majority of that figure ($719,522) going to Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer, a multinational law firm with a powerful lobbying arm on Capitol Hill.
Time’s Up Now also spent $58,395 on travel and $112,435 on Rally, a public relations company, according to tax filings.
The Encino-based organization was founded by lawyers and Hollywood producers and drew on the star-studded backing of Gloria Steinem, @Oprah Winfrey, @jes_chastain, @RoArquette and Mira Sorvino in the wake of the 2017 Harvey Weinstein scandal.
Time’s Up’s “global leadership board” includes Sorvino, who said Weinstein sexually harassed her in a hotel room in 1995, and actress Alyssa Milano, whose viral 2017 tweet urged women to come forward if they had been sexually harassed.

Time’s Up Legal Defense Fund spent $1,747,635 to help “3,000 individuals” in its first six months in 2018, tax filings show. The Time’s Up Foundation pledged $132,575 to that fund while Time’s Up Now earmarked $179,426, tax filings show.
The lion’s share of the defense fund money came from outside grants made to the Law Center, federal filings show.

While both groups are non-profit, only donations to the Time’s Up Foundation are eligible for tax deductions, the group’s website says.
Typically, politically minded non-profits set up a lobbying arm and a charity in order to raise awareness, influence legislation and also raise cash. Donations to the lobbying arm — Time’s Up Now — are not eligible for tax deductions.
Time’s Up Now took in $3,308,568 in 2018, while Time’s Up Foundation raked in $361,651, according to tax filings.

While Time's Up Now is non-profit, only donations to the Time's Up Foundation are eligible for tax deductions.
Calls and an email to Time’s Up seeking comment were not returned last week.

A brief analysis and comparison of the CSS for Twitter's PWA vs Twitter's legacy desktop website. The difference is dramatic and I'll touch on some reasons why.

Legacy site *downloads* ~630 KB CSS per theme and writing direction.

6,769 rules
9,252 selectors
16.7k declarations
3,370 unique declarations
44 media queries
36 unique colors
50 unique background colors

PWA *incrementally generates* ~30 KB CSS that handles all themes and writing directions.

The legacy site's CSS is what happens when hundreds of people directly write CSS over many years. Specificity wars, redundancy, a house of cards that can't be fixed. The result is extremely inefficient and error-prone styling that punishes users and developers.

The PWA's CSS is generated on-demand by a JS framework that manages styles and outputs "atomic CSS". The framework can enforce strict constraints and perform optimisations, which is why the CSS is so much smaller and safer. Style conflicts and unbounded CSS growth are avoided.
