TikToker @millyg_fit was rebuked by numerous strangers after offering to purchase their groceries for them in the London Sainsbury store, eventually opting to buy some goods for a food donation bin.

It's becoming a popular trend to film yourself doing good deeds to get clout on the internet.

It's called performative kindness.


Amelia Goldsmith filmed herself trying to pay for patrons' groceries in a Sainsbury, London store,but she was turned down by every person she approached.

Goldsmith approached three different people and every one of them turned her down. The first man appeared to be angry at her offer, the second person turned her down instantly and the third told her there were people who were more deserving of her charity.

Goldsmith didn't want to leave the store without doing some act of kindness so she purchased some pasta and canned sauce and put them in the store's food pantry bin.

in hindsight i can see why people can react differently to this, but my intentions were purely to brighten up someones day💕 i’m still super happy with what I ended up doing and i’ll do more of it for sure #storytime #vlog #makesomeonesday #foodshop

The comments on the video largely criticized Goldsmith.

It seems the consensus is filming the good deed and searching for someone to help in a wealthy neighborhood are not the best approaches to helping someone in need.

Design For New Commemorative Coin Featuring Trump Just Dropped—And People Can't Believe It's Real

On March 19, the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts (CFA), comprising people appointed by MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, unanimously approved a final design concept proposed for a 24-karat gold United States semiquincentennial commemorative coin.

Instead of featuring the Declaration of Independence or some other images central to the foundation of the nation in 1776 or more universally recognized symbols from the last 250 years, the CFA chose a sketch based on a photo of Trump leaning over the Resolute desk in the Oval Office for the coin's obverse or "heads" side.

Gavin Newsom Said What We're All Thinking About Trump's Decision To Deploy ICE To Airports

After President Donald Trump moved to deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports amid a partial government shutdown that has caused exceptionally long delays at TSA lines nationwide, California Governor Gavin Newsom pointed out exactly why the move is so troubling for citizens and non-citizens alike.

ICE agents are still getting paid during the shutdown, unlike TSA agents, who are currently working unpaid and struggling amid the affordability crisis. News outlets have confirmed ICE agents have been deployed in airports that serve Democratic strongholds, particularly John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia Airports (New York), O'Hare International Airport (Chicago), and others.
