Author and illustrator of all the books you like. No, not that one. No, not that one either
This is such a good point. Many of us remember a time when we had free food, shelter, education, and healthcare—and we still elected to be bussers and baggers and babysitters and probably other things that don't start with b.
I remember having a UBI. It was called “living with my parents,” and I had all my food/shelter needs covered, plus free access to a (shared) TV, music, books, a library card, cars I could borrow and more.
I still worked drudge jobs, because I wanted to buy lots of comics and take girls to movies.

Always grinds my gears when people say "No one would work drudge jobs if there was a UBI"
But even staying completely capitalist, I disagree. If I received a baseline living-wage UBI, and then I was offered REWARDS for drudge jobs, I'd take it! I want to save up for treats and travel and hobbies!

Got pretty excited when I overheard my wife tell my son to "Convert to radical form" but it turns out they were just doing math?

Nothing on television, when I was a kid, got me more excited than this.
And it was shown multiple times during the holiday season.

I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

"This could take down Democrats, too."
I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office.
Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.
