Some of my favorite people here are those accounts the majority overlook and would claim as “uninteresting” or “boring” persons. Be yourself. Friendships are only rewarding when people accept you and value you as you are… otherwise you’re just roleplaying. You’re doing yourself a disservice.

If "all people probably need is a little help, and its wrong for people to hoard that help" was actually internalized in the US, entire power bases would collapse.
One of the retirement porjects is a book on how a rabidly Christian nation obsessed with sin turned Greed into a virtue.

We have enough evidence for UBI in general that this policy should be a given. But the difference is, to understand UBI works is to believe that people are fundamentally good. And a big chunk of society is built around the belief, *must maintain the belief* that people are fundamentally bad.
"By the end of the two-year period, 94% of participants reported they were housed."
A million pilot programs show the same thing: when people are given enough money to afford housing, homelessness ends.
Other supports matter, but housing comes first. Not policing. Not moralizing. Homes.

Honor has no price tag. It is bought only through actions, through conducting yourself with integrity, with kindness towards others, with ferocity towards those who promote hatred and bigotry. Nor can anybody, no matter how wealthy, buy it or take it from you. Honor is priceless.

Calls for civility are often weaponized by abusers, by bigots, by those who would oppress you. If it is considered impolite to speak out against dishonor, then it is time for a true warrior to be rude.

The Trump era in a nutshell:
Ordinary citizens are holding ICE accountable, while large law firms are doing nothing.
Small businesses are speaking out, while large corporations remain silent.
Independent media show moral urgency, while legacy media reports "both sides."
