@washingtonpost You're only surprised by this if you're not familiar with the research. New post: battlebornecon.wordpress.com/2023/08/21/we-…

Researchers in Canada found homeless people who received a cash transfer spent it on housing and transportation over “temptation goods” like alcohol or drugs. wapo.st/45O7CuM

How do you do it?

Grocery roulette is a thing, but this is a bit much.

@Albertsons What I ordered: 1 lb. Brussel sprouts What I got:

@persphonesrage The fuck did you do?!

I take it back, head tattoos ARE shit. But I am the proud new owner.

New post! Rent control is *not* a good idea. battlebornecon.wordpress.com/2022/04/25/ren…

I did a thing! github.com/battlebornecon… I've used MyFitnessPal for years, but I've never liked the limited or the premium option for exploring my data. So, baby's first GitHub is just that: EDA and a dashboard for MFP users. Enjoy!

@MariaHaskins Nevada, the state. Ne-VAA-dah, not Ne-VAH-dah.

@persphonesrage I don't think so. Save yourself stress and money. @nikkidolson @TeresaB2009 @LadyVonBrant would you all like to weigh in?

what if we just got secret married? would it really be so bad?

@persphonesrage Welcome to a modern adult relationship

I think Berlin is getting another controller and a charging station for Yule. This mf really left me with a dead controller 🙄

New post! Let's talk about work in the wake of COVID - battlebornecon.wordpress.com/2021/10/16/do-…

@persphonesrage @nikkidolson @Snaxyrella If that many people are there is it really a secret?

@nikkidolson @battlebornecon @Snaxyrella Secret married with 5 of my favorite people as witnesses? In the Colorado forest?

I drunkenly changed my last name on Facebook as a joke with my boyfriend. My aunt asked me if I got secret married 😂 I have since changed it back lol

@nikkidolson @persphonesrage @Snaxyrella Well, that settles it. @persphonesrage as long as you tell @nikkidolson in advance you're covered.

@battlebornecon @persphonesrage @Snaxyrella Also I told Mom I was getting married. I didn’t just update my status lol

@persphonesrage @Snaxyrella @nikkidolson That's a shame. One more generation and it becomes a tradition. Or you get a small appliance. One of the two.

@Snaxyrella @nikkidolson It’s too late Facebook let me change it back lol I did NOT get secret married, as I googled eloping and name changes and that shits expensive.

@nikkidolson As long as the ball doesn't hit the net and stays in bounds, yes.

That’s legal? 😟

@carney Possible. As this work and the referenced materials are all 20+ years old, it very possible that newer research built on more recent data does show that. However, I don't think you're arguing in good faith, so cite or gtfo.

@carney Also, if anyone has a non-paywalled link for the paper referenced in the original screencap, let me know - Duncan, Greg J., and W. Jean Yeung. 1995. “Extent and Consequences of Welfare Dependence Among America’s Children.” Children and Youth Services Review 17(1/2): 1–26.

@carney If I believed for a minute that your interest in welfare reform was sincere, your repeated posting of a screenshot from a paper without context or citation fixed that in a hurry. BTW, same paper as yours - russellsage.org/sites/default/… page 123 (in text, 131 by pdf)
