Have just been reminded that it's the anniversary of us losing Kurt Vonnegut.

I am a fan & in particular try to remember his advice to notice when things are good & to say "If this isn't nice, what is?"

I scribbled this on the day he died, & posted with the words "Kurt is up in heaven now" & was roundly attacked by someone for saying such a thing about a humanist, until I pointed them to the anecdote about how it was his favourite joke.

Anyway, read his books.

They're good.

Kurt Vonnegut's books were how I finally found a name for my beliefs: humanism. His writing had a profound effect on me. He is missed much.
@JillsJoy Absolutely get this, he was ace.
