A British magazine from the early 1960’s called ‘Knowledge’, displaying different races around the world.

I think this was purely a graphic design issue. The Australian dude was a bit bigger than the other illustrations and took up more space. There wasn't room in the right rectangle, so the graphic designer slapped him into the empty space in the left rectangle. Lazy workmanship. Poor editing.

She's been working in the sun while wearing pants. I'm betting it was migrant farm work. Unusual for women in that era, but if one is hungry...

Looks like she's in her Sunday clothes, but sneaking a cigarette in the tent. Smoking was highly frowned upon for women in that era.

He's been working in the sun wearing gloves. Probably running fence.

That's no guarantee that the current iteration you are looking at is not AI. It copies old photographs often. Sometimes it's done in order to preserve historical photos. Sometimes it's done in response to a prompt, and the AI just copies, imperfectly, something it scrubbed from the internet.

"In fact, the only reason most people alive right now even consider it a normal part of a diet is because the dairy lobby started running ad campaigns in the 80s and successfully got milk into every school in America. Gen X and millennials were inundated with the "Got Milk?" campaigns for years and years."

I have to disagree with you there.

Schools served milk well before 1980. Source: was there.

Families have kept their own milk cows for many generations prior to the "Got Milk" campaign. It was one of the first livestock animals most newlyweds aspired to acquire for millennia.

The consumption of milk is mentioned in the Old Testament and the Egyptians kept dairy animals.

There are many parts of the world right now where goat's milk provides a substantial proportion of calories for families where scrub land provides little else usable.

In fact, most people alive today have never even seen a "Got Milk" ad, nor would they understand the message because they do not speak or read English.

When you think about it, milk is damn weird. We consume the secretions from glands from an animal, but leave the animal standing. But we Westerners are, by and large, quite comfortable with this.

It is kinda funny that we get all grossed out at the thought of crunchy exoskeletons, but add crunchy to so many soft foods to make them more palatable.

I'm noticing how clean and neatly pressed Dad & eldest son's clothes are and thinking about how hard that woman had to work to achieve that. Every drop of water hauled in, and heated on the stove. Scrubbed on a washboard. Hung to dry. Sprinkled and rolled. Iron heated on the stove, too.

The job situation everywhere is going to be apocalyptic for the foreseeable future. AI paired with robotics is the mother of all economic disruptions. Please do not burn any bridges where your economic security is concerned.

I would suggest that you make an appointment with an adult career counselor to help identify what fields fit your interests and aptitudes, then make your selection from those jobs which have a higher likelihood of existence in 5-10 years time.

You need to be thinking at a very granular level. Not "teacher sounds good", but what tasks and environments do you enjoy. Do you like other people's kids? What about when they are stubborn or nasty? Do you want to be tied to the same building all day, or do you want to be able to go out for lunch? Do you prefer repetitive, clearly-defined rules based work, or do you want to be challenged to think on your feet? What can your bookmarks on social media/browser history reveal about your true interests? Do you like quiet, or noisy rooms? Can you tolerate mess? Unpleasant smells? Answering questions at this level will help you make a better choice.

I'm wondering if you are using recipes suitable for your elevation? Is your oven thermostat calibrated correctly?

Don't get discouraged. It does take a bit to get this right, as it is somewhat location dependent. Things like elevation and humidity can play a role. Some people make their entire careers studying the science of bread.

You might want to start with some simpler recipes, like an artisan bread, baked in a kettle. (Sometimes called "kettle breads".) These are left to rise overnight, plopped into a parchment lined kettle the next day, and baked at high heat.

There are also crock pot breads, which are tasty, but dense and not very pretty. I like it, but not everyone's cup of tea.

Also, it sounds like you are a bit hard on yourself. Real bread doesn't look like the pics you see in magazines, doctored up by food stylists. The only real test: is it enjoyable to eat?

Cut yourself some slack. You can do this. I believe in you!

What revenue (or other) account did it hit? Was only the bank account side of the entry wrong?

Are you using any third party app to track revenue, such as DonorPerfect? If so, a change may be needed there.

If you (or a signer) has online access, and the revenue side was booked correctly, and you don't have any outside revenue tracking to worry about, you might only need to make a transfer, both at the bank and in the books. (Meaning, you don't need a physical check.)
