I used to tell a joke about Polyphemus, but Nobody liked it.
I have a joke about Odysseus, and by the Fates, I'll come back around to the punchline soon enough.
I've got a joke about Echo but you've heard it before.

If I spend the time and effort to cook for more than myself, I shouldn't even have to *think* about the cleanup, much less see it or do it.

Too many treat having kids like checking off something on a make-believe Life “To Do” List.
That creates lives that are ruined *in advance* and uses resources that are already spoken for to ruin more.

It’s almost impossible to fiddle with benefits like SNAP in a way that matters.
Getting on them in the first place has always been deliberately difficult, so I never bothered.

I’ve been a chef in restaurants with Michelin stars.

All very true. Orgs that have the purchasing set up already will do far more good with cash.
Similarly, orgs like Meals on Wheels often need volunteers to deliver the food they *do* have.
Speaking from experience- I run MoW for my city all by myself. See what's near you, and if they need help.

If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples
