Sometimes the food is the vessel to help build a relationship. That relationship is what can also make a difference.

Has a piece of visual art really affected anyone's life significantly? Music, yes, but visual art at most gets a "hmmm, that's cool" from me

“Artists” like Twombly drive me insane. Recent “artwork” of his sold for millions. One of his masterpieces was red swirls. RED SWIRLS.

Sometimes i think people in STEM are pretentious then artists remind me they also exist.

When you don’t know where or when your next meal will be, it’s hard to think about let alone appreciate anything else.

Written by a moron, Art dose nothing to change the human condition. Mostly it is a wast of time.

Much like spelling apparently.

Not only is food obviously more important, but those that have never known poverty gain important perspective through volunteering.

The only thing art ever inspired me to do was to develop marketable skills so I could feed myself. Now I feed myself and other people, too.

But why are we we all listening to a dildo? I only follow butt plugs on social media.

Aren't but plugs just specialized dildos?

I heard they already have plenty of volunteers at soup kitchens this time of year, but they could use them the whole rest of the year.
rshini
it's the same with blood donations and disasters. Blood has a limited shelf life, so they can't even save the excess donations for lean time

I lol’d till I remembered we’re broke as a joke, those white & orange crayons starting to look like sweet potato casserole y’all

Cheap bread, vegemite, cheese. I picked it all up for like $8 or so, i've been eating it for about a week.
Kage197
Whoa sorry man, I'm not so off myself otherwise if offer a pizza or something. But also I'm sure ordering a pizza from Au in us wouldbealot$
stinkingyeti
Thanks for the offer. Oddly enough, it's quite easy to do, when i've had good times i've done it for others, and otehrs have done it for me.

Those white and orange crayons are a weeks rations in the field for a Jarhead

Feeding the hungry is a waste of time. They're just going to be hungry again in a few hours.

My dad told me his mom would look at soup-kitchens and would ask what happened to the job center? This was back in the 80’s FYI.
Ctiyboy
i don't think that person has ever actually volunteered their time for a productive endeavour like a soup kitchen in their entire life.
IntoxicatedTaterTot
As someone who used to eat a soup kitchen, I can def say that this person can go heck themselves. I ended up volunteering there after.
dasbounty
How about inspiring well fed people?

Art is pure luxury (not to confuse with entertainment and decoration which are important as soon base survival is secured)

Teaching one person to paint could save millions of lives. We should have known this earlier.
Crimpwithyourthumb
For those of you that see these post and think Trolls. Way to be an optimist, but wait. You’ll see that fade to seeing less often than not
NoSleepTilBrooklyn
I spend 20 -30 hours a week working in a soup kitchen and food pantry. Maybe I'll suggest we start offering art instead of food.

Survival tip #46: always keep a small art collection with you in the wilderness for an emergency life changing experience.
MalcomReynoldsWrap
Seems to me that going from "about to die from starvation" to "not dying" qualifies as changing one's life.
kasaku
Is volunteering at a soup kitchen really the thing that stops people from dying of starvation.
deadlysneeze
Its the kindness that plays in tge long game. Contagious and effective.

Hunger is a hell of a drug.
Batonrougeisnotsobad
And are we sure feeding people is the least productive thing one could do? My stick figures aren’t going to change a life or fill a tummy.

To be fair, if you die you are also “no longer dying.”

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him to paint and he might become famous 100 years after dying of starvation
dazedNconfuzed
Build a man a fire and you warm him for a day. Set a man on fire and you warm him for the rest of his life.
Anononononon
The trick is, teach him to paint then set him on fire after he paints a handful of pictures. They will be worth more.

Though the local homeless shelter seemed to frown on the idea. I never did get my lighter back...
afriendinneedsafriendindeedafriendwithmemesisbetter
Unfortunately for many it just means it changes to "not about to die of starvation, but dying for other reasons"
cntdn
Have they tried... not being homeless? I hear that being poor is entirely your own fault, and you can just go and get rich with hard work.
SomeOneYouMayKnowOrNot
Shit, why not just get a small loan of a million dollars?

Going from hungry and suffering from malnutrition to momentarily full & a hopefully a little healthier and stronger.

fucking artists can be so full of themselves.
CatEyebrows
It's one of the only fields in which one can declare themselves an expert with absolutely no training or education. I'm an artist with 1/2
CatEyebrows
I have an MFA. I don't tell people I'm an artist because it gets used by too many stupid people. I tell people I'm a painter.
theproofisinmypudding
This isn't quite the same thing, but I'm an English major and I have to stop myself from rolling my eyes in lecture sometimes haha
Ryanator50
as an artist, who has been in groups of artists... yep
grinchfeets
I remember eating taco shells with mustard because i had nothing else. Worst times ever.
BruhReallySnapped
Well I hope you’re doing better now :)
grinchfeets
Much better, thank you!! I am now in a place where I can give back to those going through the same. Never forget where u came from, right?:)
BruhReallySnapped
Absolutely! And thats amazing :)
