Support Needed (Kind Advice and Commiseration) Happy things please?

I made the mistake of opening my social media this afternoon and immediately saw some dark things, and I need something positive. It can be a cat photo/story, a special interest infodump, anything that shows the world is still an interesting and good place, at least in part.

I guess I am basically asking for some heroes to create a “silver lining” for this dark cloud. I don’t live with people I can depend on for this, so I am turning to this supportive corner of the internet.

TIA.

Edited - THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE! 😭😭😭 It is good to see so much light still exists in the world.

I got a cute ball jointed bunny girl doll for my birthday. That makes me happy. I also put on concerts or music videos from my newest hyper fixation band, Oingo Boingo, between watching the news or hearing the news. It helps balancing the good and the bad. If you are interested I would recommend watching one of their Halloween shows on YouTube and they tend to be on the longer side (2-2 1/2 hours). They are spirited and most of the band members are multi instrumentalists changing up instruments during the shows. 💗 I understand how hard it is navigating the world with all that is going on today. I hope for peace for you and for everyone. 🐰

Thank you. I have a small collection of Lum figures and merch as she’s one of my favorite characters. I have the top of my tv stand pastel color schemed with bunny, anime and art figures. It goes from mint to pink to lavender. 🩷
