returning via browser one more time before my break (i swear) as ive been informed Posts have been deleted, and therefore i've chosen to do the same. i am completely speechless having learned a third party decided to get involved, simply to cause harm and nothing more.

Myste: In your darkest hour, in the blackest of night… think of me, and I will be with you. Always. For where else would I go? Who else could I love but you?

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

anyways this is partly why i havent been as active as i used to, due to my mental health taking a hit from paranoia surrounding socmed. i return to my hole once more ilu my oomfs

this is also the only post im making as i don't wish to engage in the rage-bait, however id kindly appreciate reporting and blocking @. a-nonymoususer1234 for attempting to stir up shit for no goddamn reason outside of having nothing better to do. we're grown ass adults with jobs, grow up

I don’t want this point to be lost in the discourse. Going digital-only means inequity for people who cannot afford internet or constantly purchasing new games. Libraries provide opportunities for people to experience games they otherwise wouldn’t be able to afford, and that will be lost.

My child loves going to the library and checking out a new video game every week. Going digital only eliminates libraries as a way people can access games.

Fix your hearts or die. You know how many of us joke that Pride month should be followed by Wrath? This year I feel a deep, burning fury towards all who use transgender lives as political propaganda. We are human beings. You cannot erase us. Happy Pride. Trans liberation at any cost. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

A digital illustration showing a knight in full armour. They are riding on a black steed which is mostly out of frame. The frame in question is green and shows a chain going around as a decorative element. That chain is broken by the knight's raised sword. From the knight's chest bursts a roaring flame in the colours of the trans pride flag.

FNAF is ontologically evil because it's so hyper-tuned for neurodivergent children to fixate on instead of healthy things like tertiary dragon ball characters, video quality, sora and riku kissing, color balancing and sonic the hedgehog
