I met a cat in a chip shop, rubbing against everyone’s legs. Apparently he was in there often and the delivery driver would drop him home.
Yeah, I was quite surprised by this as I’m so used to how capitalism ruins everything.

This is what I read and it was a shock to me that companies not only improved the quality of the cloth when they realised people made garments from sacks, but also strove to provide fashionable designs and wash-off labels. There are some really gorgeous prints on here.
Nowadays, it feels like they would make the original packaging more coarse, then sell the product with nicer packaging at a premium, whilst making sure their logo was indelible.
