Puts in perspective my "woe is me, I don't have counter space for a pressure cooker" whining...

  To me it puts in perspective my groceries. Sometimes I spend more in one time than the entire monthly budget a lot of these people have.

  What really put things into perspective for me was seeing how despite the terrible gap in living conditions the "families" category just showed a bunch of pictures and videos of what looked to me like perfectly ordinary families. It really helps show that people are just people and highlight the disparity of their circumstances.

    YES. Exactly. I’m loving seeing all the smiling people. This website is an amazing facilitator of empathy and a way to break down that “otherness” Nope - babies are still cute, and parents are still cooking amazing food all over the world! More of this.

  Why not just store appliances not being used somewhere else? For me the only things that stay on the counter are a kettle and espresso machine. If I want to make toast I’ll just pull the toaster out of the cupboard.
