i wish all affluent people who are in college and make nonstop jokes about being poor a very understand that poverty is not a temporary condition

if you are poor for four years and know the exact date at which it will end, you have not experienced poverty.

this is the same reason that "politicians should have to live a month on minimum wage to see what it's like" doesn't work. poverty is a lack of resources beyond monetary ones. it's not having family members you can borrow money from. it's not having a place to stay if you were outdoors for a bit. it's not having the nice kitchen equipement with which you could make food more cheaply. it's having to buy cheaper things which will break sooner because you can't afford the better ones.

the bit about knowing the end date is not a semantic point to make me feel better. if you know you'll be out of this soon, it enables you to make choices you otherwise couldn't. you can splurge on pizza delivery or spend half your paycheck on good shoes because it isn't real. if a crisis comes, the irreality of this situation allows you to deal with it. you can ask your parents for money, you can stay with someone for a while. impoverished people can't.

i think a lot of times otherwise progressive people come out of college more classist because they think they know what it's like to be poor now, and they made the right choices, so why doesn't everyone else? you weren't, and you didn't. poverty is more than that.

“im fine, but poor me another drink? Cuz i do like to unwind sometimes but seriously, i’m fine. nah, grab the brown bottle i don’t drink wine. I don’t drink often nah only from time to time, like 6am to pm 9 it helps the back pain and heart aches. But what ? what does it take ? shit at least 80 proof till i’m standing on the roof ready to jump howling at the moon arms spread like a hawk touch down in a dirt bed the corn stalk do you hear it? the world talks talks when i sit and i walk so poor me another drink so i cant hear so i cant think till i stumble and fall wake up one day and remember it all till the day of the future time poor me another drink, till my arms spread like a hawk cuz for now i’m fine”

i like how writing realistic worlds and characters is so important for so many writers to the point where they agonize over it. meanwhile lemony snicket was just like “death to reality. im gonna write this whole ass series and with god as my witness, absolutely fucking NOBODY is gonna act like a person.”

Daniel Handler, after downing whatever the hell he was on: The baby has piranha teeth and can take a trained swordswoman in a fight.

All of us: Fucking genius.

There are so many things that are TOP quality about this. The business with the mic rope. The bounding across the stage like an excited puppy or a newsie. The Voice™️ that is so synonymous with John, you know, the voice of a guy who sells ice cream at the soda fountain in the 50’s. The analogy itself.

It’s all so beautiful, such peak humor and content.
