After thorough scientific analysis, here are my findings.
This has gained a lot in popularity, and one of the things that has been bought to my attention is that my analysis is incomplete. So here you go:
I love how this meme has essentially been peer-reviewed and resubmitted with additional data

i really hate coming out but still want my extended family to know, so my mother took it upon herself to invent the game “guess which one of my kids is gay.”
the rules are simple.
sit down with uncle so-and-so
he says something about gay people in passing
my mom says “there’s a gay person at this table right now. guess which of my kids it is!
he looks frantically between the three of us trying to figure out if she’s joking or not and trying desperately not to offend anyone but also she won’t continue with the conversation unless he makes a guess so he has to make a guess
we all enjoy his discomfort immensely
This isnt coming out of the closet. This is coughing loudly from within the closet to scare the people outside of it, which is immensely more entertaining.
how much scarier would a frog be if it ran instead of hopped .. u just hear plat plat plat plat coming towards u and u look down and it’s a frog going at full speed
Literally anyone who’s read the results of any other time this experiment has been tried. Why are we still trying to prove the concept?
Here’s the link if anyone wants it!
https://www.newscientist.com/article/2242937-universal-basic-income-seems-to-improve-employment-and-well-being/
Finland’s two-year test of universal basic income has concluded that it doesn't seem to disincentivise working, and improves recipients’ men
We’re still trying to prove the concept because in the West, Big Business and their owners, The 1%, are screaming at the thought of having to give up a little money so everyone can get universal income that supports life - meaning jobs either have to pay you to put up with the literal shit or people can walk away from them without becoming homeless.
Our entire system is basically based on people being so afraid of homelessness and starvation that they’ll accept any shit job for shit pay.
Past experiments have shown that UBI:
Increases high school graduation rates
Reduces:
Domestic violence
Alcoholism
Emergency room visits related to mental health
Road traffic accidents.
All while not disincentivizing employment for most groups (the exceptions being high school students, who were able to focus on their studies, and new mothers…who were using it as maternity leave!)
People, for the most part, want to work.
UBI would allow us to expand the definition of “work.” If somebody can live off of UBI, then they can devote themselves to things which we don’t currently value financially such as the arts, raising children well, etc.
And if somebody wants to stay home and play video games all day…then so be it. Not that many will.,..and of those who do most will probably find some way to make that into their “work,” whether by providing play throughs and tutorials or competing seriously.
If somebody stops working all together as soon as they get UBI and stays home to play video games, they probably desperately needed a break.
There are so many people who are struggling with mental and physical illnesses, and chronic pain, who are still breaking themselves working because they don’t have another option - because it can take years to get on disability, and it’s not enough to survive on, so people keep going as long as they possibly can.
Even if it’s not a matter of disability, as such … people get burned out?
We’re not really built to do school and work with minimal breaks to the extent that we do.
Despite what our puritanical culture says, there’s no shame in needing a break.
The reason we don’t have UBI is not because it costs too much money like they say it’s because it would take away the leverage businesses have over their employees (starvation and death)
UBI would also increase art/culture of a country as well? Especially in the modern era where it’s easier to become an independent artist than it ever has been? Like if we had UBI here in the US, I’d probably quit my day job, and focus on my music and directing career. Live off the basics but I wouldn’t have to worry about constantly needing another 1099 contract set up, or I could spend my days rehearsing and practicing instead of needing to go to work to pay rent, and then being too emotionally exhausted to actually better my art.
I know I’m not the only artist in this position either. UBI would allow musicians, writers, actors, painters, even cosplayers or independent video game designers to focus on their craft, get better at it, and be able to live without a concern about the inconsistency that is “gig work”

unfortunately for everybody i will keep doing whatever i want
Mt. St. Helens
I’ll have limited copies of this in print at VanCAF17 this weekend, come see me at table D-11!
I hadn’t even realized that it’s the anniversary of the eruption today (May 18, 1980) - I think Mt St Helens herself possessed me to make this in a hurry.

I thought this was my hometown for a second
So this has actually been cited by academics as part of the major draw to online spaces is the fact that just existing in public is reacted to with hostility and punishment. Gretchen McCulloch discussed this is in her book Because Internet, citing research that shows teens and young adults want to be outside! We want to spend time in social places, it’s just that there aren’t any places to exist in public without being charged for it.
