The shopping cart was created by Jewish inventor Sylvan Goldman, born in 1898 to Jewish immigrants in Oklahoma. After serving in WWI, Sylvan opened a wholesale fruit and produce store with his brother Alfred. During a trip to California, the brothers observed the rise of a new concept in shopping: the supermarket, which introduced the convenience of having a variety of products all under one roof. Soon, they purchased several grocery stores and markets across Oklahoma, pioneering the supermarket concept in their home state. In 1934, Sylvan purchased the struggling Humpty-Dumpty grocery chain and noticed that customers were limited in their purchases by what could fit in a handheld basket. His idea was to combine a carriage with a wire basket, and so, in 1937, the shopping cart was born. The rest, as they say, is history. Sylvan revolutionized shopping, and today, on average, Americans use 15 million shopping carts each day.

Would You Rather...
A: Invent a technology which otherwise would never be invented that revolutionises warfare, leading to countless casualties in the near and distant future but your immense personal financial, political and other gain
B: Replace the leader of your country with your favourite character from the last media you consumed, and their political party with that characters friends and allies
C: People across the world begin transforming into evil monsters themed off their personal problems when subject to extreme negative emotion over long periods, and dubious magical creatures travel the world to recruit magical girls to fight them (you are in now way forced or obligated to take part in either side of this, and are immune to becoming a monster yourself)

A proper screen recorded WIP of my tablet holder arm mount (with the articulating part heavily-inspired by Woby’s camera jig). Last thing to 3d-model is the ball joint that will attach to the part that holds the tablet. Stay tuned..🛠️🤖

Coming up in Journey To Excelsior!
Two and a Half Scientists: Alvin sets out to prove there can be more than one scientist in the Seville family. Simon and Dave struggle to adapt to this change. At the same time, Brittany fails to help Alvin become popular again. This convinces her that there’s more to Alvin’s change than self improvement and she gets Simon convinced too! Meanwhile, Theodore and Jeanette struggle to smooth things over between their bickering siblings. Then, Eleanor decides to go punk to try and be noticed. It’s a WILD ride.

I have the gift of desiring, of inventing more and more desires, of never knowing satiation and dullness. And I am cursed with the lack of genius for renunciation.
