it’s such a difference when you are a rando who can survive on a bigass bag of beans versus a single parent with multiple kids – that was my original point. fucking silly they gave me this huge box of crap and the only thing food-like is potatoes.
same but with pixelfed, still just a PITA
yeah all ya’ll are badass, especially because it’s super important to help children in all their weird developments
i’m very pro food bank and pro mutual aid. we should always be having these conversations about allocation of resources. bless.
not complaining, friend. I do love to be critical, and I do wish they had asked if I wanted any toys. I now have several boxes of cornbread mix, among other weird shit from them – that does qualify as food.
when i was staying in a homeless shelter and i was halfway out of the shower one day i literally caught one of the same food bank guys fishing his insanely skeleton-like fingers through my little homeless man bag of toiletries. Also that man wears adult diapers and dumps them in the public fucking trash. Creepy fucking ghoul.
unfortunately nothing clever to offer. actually so far I can handle it. When the Food Banks are not even trying to feed children, shit’s getting scary.
the image that i failed to up load shows two huge boxes of cool, cheap-ass miniature-painting sets, which came from the fucking food bank. If it weren’t so misplaced and confusing I’d say it’s awesome. i used to build little intricate cars and planes as a child.
this is what they give you. tthi assuming it still won’t upload, i went to the food bank got a ton of cheesy cringy little toy things, pretty cool toys honestly, from an adult persprective. fucking inedible…
rest of it was fast food packets of honey, box of cereal, box of spahge, bag of potat.
Bag of potat is badass compared to a pile of fucking fruit roll ups
the per 100g price on the bottom is incorrect. they are 70 cents per 100g… or I’m too high. choosing by weight is literally the frugal method.
edit: try living out of a vending machine - if you only have a dollar, you should buy the item with most weight and presumably most calories
Pixelfed seems able to handle larger file sizes than lemmy, and the shitass Macintosh phone takes good pictures 9000 times heavier than necessary. Pretty crazy when you realize you have no idea who or what their motivations might be, but it does work
