Great moments in U.S. History.

Comic panel showing the Kool Aid Man walking past children with Benjamin Franklin. A child asks, “Excuse me sir, aren’t you Benjamin Franklin?” Franklin answers, “Yes I am. I’m also hot and thirsty.”

I've been researching the idea of Unconditional Universal Basic Income since 2013. Here's a collection of findings I've compiled from various UBI experiments and studies of cash transfer programs around the world. This will be a VERY LONG and ongoing thread focused entirely on empirical evidence. 🧵

OBSERVED EFFECTS OF UBI

No significant reduction in labor supply (38 studies meta-analysis)

Increased self-employment (301%) and part-time employment (17%)

Slight decrease in alcohol and tobacco use (31 studies meta-analysis)

New mothers extend their maternity leaves

Birth weights improve due to better maternal nutrition

Graduation rates and educational outcomes improve

Hospitalization rates decline (8.5%)

Crime goes down (15%–42%) especially illegal hunting (95%)

Domestic violence decreases (30%–51%)

Trust increases (13% in politicians | 6% in other people)

Home ownership rates increase (17%–26%)

Food security increases as does consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables

Improved cognitive functioning (43%) and personality traits (31%)

Savings go up, debts go down

Happy Summer Solstice! May it be mellow and joyous! ”Summer Horns” Oil on board (Painted during a lazy summer some years ago) Fun fact: I picked up some acorn caps to use as reference for the mouse cymbals, and a real life mouse stole them from my studio

It is sunset on a golden Summer day. A faun in an elegant red coat prances among the trees, playing tunes on a curling golden horn. But not your ordinary faun with ordinary goat horns! This one has proper horns! Brass musical horns, that is: growing from his head in complex spirals. He is accompanied by a musical mouse playing acorn-cap cymbals.

Matthew Lillard criticized the industry for prioritizing celebrities over voice actors in animation: “The ability to carry a film, as the lead of a film with only a voice, is a power very few people have. The idea that they keep hiring crappy celebrities to carry huge films is killing us.”

Kwame Ture, 1969 “Many people want to know why, out of the entire white segment of society, we want to criticize the liberals. We have to criticize them because they represent the liaison between both groups, between the oppressed and the oppressor.”

At our city-owned grocery stores, staples like eggs and bread will actually be affordable. And we're going to do it the right way, without cutting workers' pay or dignity. Because in the wealthiest city in this country, buying groceries shouldn't be an unsolvable equation.

Talked to an HVAC guy who's working two jobs to pay rent. He has no savings and worries about retirement. Tariffs have made it hard for him to import parts. Then this big strong guy who never cries, he said, he said to me, "I just wish Trump's signature was on the dollar." Then he burst out crying.
