At that time, I will select 5 authors to each receive 1 share of SBI for their participation! I’m looking for a thoughtful comment, and engagement with other community members!* *** *** ### You may be asking yourself, what’s an SBI Share?! > Steem Basic Income (@steembasicincome) is a social experiment to bring a basic income to as many Steemians as possible. Members join by sponsoring others into the program. Steem Basic Income is delivered through providing regular upvotes to member content. When I give you a share of SBI, you’ll be getting a lifetime of support from the @steembasicincome project, including PERMANENT upvotes! Head on over to their page to find out more, or join the group on [Discord](https://discord.gg/M5BxTAS)! Rather than just rewarding authors with quick gains, I want to help you build long-term sustainability on steemit. <3 *** ### Now that we’ve gotten all the rules and explaining out of the way - here’s my answer to my own question! One of the artists I most remember having an impact on me when I was young was Groucho Marx, of the Marx Brothers! *** https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-RsgcTOHbE *** I was first introduced to Groucho and the Marx Brothers as a child when my uncle started sending me VHS of their movies for every holiday. I grew up with Groucho’s sharp wit, endless puns, and constant wordplay. Coming out of the vaudeville tradition, all of the Marx Brothers are seasoned performers with many talents. Some of my witty banter and way of speaking still stems directly from this early influence! #### And that’s all I’m looking for! Share a piece of content and write a few thoughts! :) If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask ‘em. Looking forward to talking about with all of you! *** **Check out more of my work @lilyraabe and below:** [The Future is Female: U.S. Election Results - many firsts!](https://steemit.com/news/@lilyraabe/the-future-is-female-u-s-election-results-many-firsts) [Chasing Wild Horses in South Dakota | Photo Album](https://steemit.com/adventure/@lilyraabe/chasing-wild-horses-in-south-dakota-or-photo-album) [Making Terrariums | Photo Album and Tutorial!](https://steemit.com/gardening/@lilyraabe/making-terrariums-or-photo-album-and-how-to) [Salty Dog | Entry to @Axeman’s Seascape Contest](https://steemit.com/adventure/@lilyraabe/salty-dog-or-entry-to-axeman-s-seascape-contest) [Exploring Yellowstone National Park | Photo Album](https://steemit.com/adventure/@lilyraabe/exploring-yellowstone-national-park-or-photo-album) [Two for One | A QUIET PLACE Movie Review (entry for Steemitbloggers Contest) + Halloween Watchlist Results!](https://steemit.com/steemitbloggers/@lilyraabe/two-for-one-or-a-quiet-place-movie-review-entry-for-steemitbloggers-contest-halloween-watchlist-results) [Exploring the Lewis & Clark Caverns in Montana | Photo Album](https://steemit.com/adventure/@lilyraabe/exploring-the-lewis-and-clark-caverns-in-montana-or-photo-album) [I Have a Long-Term Relationship with Marijuana](https://steemit.com/naturalmedicine/@lilyraabe/i-have-a-long-term-relationship-with-marijuana) [Quick Trip to Franklin Falls | WA State](https://steemit.com/adventure/@lilyraabe/quick-trip-to-franklin-falls-or-wa-state) [Ultimate Halloween Watchlist Contest - 6sbd to giveaway](https://steemit.com/contest/@lilyraabe/ultimate-halloween-watchlist-contest-5sbd-to-giveaway) [Exploring Crater Lake - one of the 7 Wonders of Oregon | Photo Album](https://steemit.com/adventure/@lilyraabe/exploring-crater-lake-one-of-the-7-wonders-of-oregon-or-photo-album) [Exploring Ruby Beach on the Olympic Peninsula | Photo Album](https://steemit.com/adventure/@lilyraabe/exploring-ruby-beach-on-the-olympic-peninsula-or-photo-album) [A Summer’s Worth of Adventures | Photo Album](https://steemit.com/adventure/@lilyraabe/a-summer-s-worth-of-adventures-or-photo-album) [Offering an Explanation](https://steemit.com/community/@lilyraabe/offering-an-explanation) [How I Got Here: a poem about existence](https://steemit.com/poetry/@lilyraabe/how-i-got-here-a-poem-about-existence) *** ![falllfooter.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmf31mzU5e467CNAbtW35CHB8DAEjahdpF7nXTbSmeku8g/falllfooter.png) *** [
