    One of my local food banks has a community dinner once a month. The food isn’t anything to write home about, but it’s free.

      The food isn’t anything to write about

      Using that phrase in writing always tickles my funnybone with its inherent self-contradiction 😁

      Sometimes I think about how we might make a public dining hall that people would choose to eat at, rather than go as a last resort. Sort of how U.S. public housing is dumpy while some European social housing is actually desirable.
