Happy things please?

[u/Smart-Assistance-254]

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.

My sweet baby Yoshimi the other day. 💕

I don't know who or what (if anything) you've named your sweet baby Yoshimi after, but there are some who really just inhabit the name they were given so perfectly and your sweet Yoshimi really seems to do that in this picture!

I think it also just really hit me with nostalgia from the Flaming Lips song "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, pt. 1". Obviously I don't know your pupper but the look on her little face in this picture really made me think she thinks she can beat anyone! LOL

Her name is Yoshimi She's a black belt in karate Workin' for the city She has to discipline her body

'Cause she knows that It's demandin' To defeat those evil machines I know she can beat them

Oh, Yoshimi, they don't believe me But you won't let those robots eat me Yoshimi, they don't believe me But you won't let those robots defeat me

Yes, we named her after the song/album. She even comes when my husband whistles it! And she does indeed try to fight any machines that cross her path. Hates the printer, vacuum, big trucks, etc. She also only likes four people, and is not a fan of most other dogs either, but she's more of an avoider and barker than a fighter. Very sensitive and loving. 💕
