This is what I try to always tell people: food banks can do way more with your money than you can, due to bulk buying deals. And they can do way, way more with your money than with the canned goods you didn’t want to eat
spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

oh. I just realized watching this video by a woman who might be in her 20s, maybe early 30s, has a perfectly stone-smooth forehead and her eyebrows don’t move. Vampire or Botox?

a year later a giant part of the US economy is built on this notion most people don't care to know how to do basic things, want to be lazy, unprepared and incapable, phoning it all in. part of my doubt about a future for mainstream AI is I reject that premise. most people really are better than that
Apple's brand marketing history, Our Users Are
-Revolutionary visionaries (80s)
-Like Picasso, Einstein "think different" (late 90s)
-Cool creatives (iMac/iPod)
-Successful, high status (iPhone to iWatch)
-Unprepared bad workers, office loser, can't read/write one line emails (Apple Intelligence/AI)

The right's obsession with SNAP recipients buying popsicles is a modern version of a centuries-old tradition of scolding the poor for what they eat. It mimics verbatim Victorian complaints about the poor indulging in tea and sugar, mistaking consumption as a cause of poverty instead of a symptom.
