Great post. Thank you Daniel. Vonnegut Jr and Bukowski are a constant source of inspiration to my work. Their abstract creativity are something I aspire to, and even though their writing is not always 'relatable' it definitely makes me think about a variety of topics (from space colonisation to equity in the labour market) in a new light. 🙏
