In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.
KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.
His reply was a doozy.

The most telling statistic I have ever hear is that poverty decreased during the pandemic heights because we were just doing direct payments. We basically had a national UBI pilot and ditched it because Biden wanted to restore status quo ante instead of leading a 21st century New Deal transformation
At some point people need to learn that the poverty rate is mostly about the safety net or lack thereof and not the economy. The economy was doing historically well, real wages rising for the first time in decades, etc. And poverty rose because pandemic safety policies expired.
A new Census Bureau report establishes that poverty increased over the course of the Biden administration.
The data is yet another rebuke to the politicians and commentators who insisted economic conditions under Joe Biden were great.

the urge to respond to every "do you remember the 21st night of september" meme with, "yeah cause it's my dead dad's birthday" but not everyone has dead parent club humour

looked up the clip just because sometimes people change his words for captions that end up innocently reshared, but upon finding it decided to share the video because hearing him say it makes it 1000% more definitely true and everyone will listen/believe more than reading it written out

I think it's because I'm older now and also lived through 9/11 in this country but I just find USian Islamophobia extremely pathetic and I think that the Islamophobes are losers, lol. But I imagine younger Muslims are definitely fed up with this current virulent manifestation.
I am so, so tired of the absolute gutter Islamophobia I’ve been seeing around lately. The shit people feel comfortable saying out loud is absolutely insane

anyway this is just like the infamous tweet where a guy was like "why don't they just add a simple fact-checking layer to chatgpt?" the model is not capable of noticing when someone is having a break from reality! if it were it wouldn't be doing this in the first place!
