On the other hand, if you believe the people on the street as real-seeming people on a real-seeming street, when they say "Look, up in the sky!" and see something weird, you're more likely to buy into the weird thing as real, because the people and place and their reactions make sense.

I just watched an orangutan tie a knot. You should see it too.

A public call for donations linked to that list may work well too, maybe linked to an updates on purchasing. People like to give things, which works well sometimes, but I’ve been reading about Grenfell again and the whole donation chaos part sticks in my mind. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017...

Community applauds generosity but says need is now for warehouse space and boxes to hold donated items, as well as cash gifts

Please ask them first! Some libraries aren’t set up to process & catalogue donated books even if they want them, they buy books shelf-ready with catalogue records instead, & disposing of unwanted books (for whatever reason) costs libraries staff time & money when they usually have little of either
