We bought it at goodwill on a whim knowing nothing about it. Good to know about your other suggestions. Thanks!

I read Second Hand by Adam Minter. Apparently it’s all the rage in some developing nations. To the point where the antique store owners he interviews in the Midwest have a direct line to some dude in Africa.

Yeah Starbucks literally partnered with the Orion homeless youth shelter in Seattle to train teens to be baristas.

Due to instability during their upbringing, for some of these kids just being able to show up at a certain location at a certain time is a job skill they’re lacking. Yet there’s a little half-Starbucks on site where they can learn that and more.

Tried clicking "hot" since "active" got a little stale. Saw a few interesting links, but before I could click anything, they all got pushed down by a dozen new links. Is there a way to freeze it until I refresh?
