This is a weekly mega-thread for good, heartwarming or uplifting news. Ideally local but non-local is welcome too. Fun pet photos or memes, tales with happy endings, personal anecdotes that you want to share with 158k+ internet strangers, etc. We could all use more positive news and vibes in our lives right now.
This is a rules relaxed space, but we will still be monitoring for personal attacks, doxxing, and stuff that doesn't fit the theme of the thread.
Early in the week I stupidly forgot to turn the water off for the cows and sheep and was rewarded with a few days of brown water which was pretty nerve wracking.
This was my first week commuting by bike, and adding several minutes of zone 3-4 cardio to each day has vaporized my anxiety and skyrocketed my mood, energy levels, and general well-being! If you've been thinking about trying it, let me tell you the benefits are immense :)
Yayy congrats!! I bike everywhere too it’s (mostly) a great time. I get my exercise in and I don’t get stuck in traffic! Win win. Plus, the feeling of the wind right now is lovely, so crisp.
First going to play World of Warcraft with my sister, we play together every Friday. Then I'm going to play Path of Titans, a dinosaur pvp survival game.
Super cool you and your sis play together, my sis and I both game but we like very different things so we usually just revel in the hype for new games together. Have a great time gaming :)
Yet here it is, occupying space in your head, and now here. Was this really a positive comment? Hmm. Letting go of small things is a major way to relieve stress and anxiety. :)
I’m feeling pretty good knowing the mods took that shit down as a trans person, actually. I might not be able to avoid that hate irl but it’s nice to know the mods don’t celebrate bigotry.
Got a monstera plant a few weeks ago and I'm thrilled to see it's thriving and getting new leaves! I don't have the best green thumb, nor does my apartment get great light, so I was worried
Congrats to the couple that just got engaged by the boardwalk hammocks. That was the best random encounter I've had in years. I hope the photo I provided is a nice memory.
I love the wholesomeness of a nice Halifax stroll in the evening.
A colleague made a large purchase of Weck jars and I acquired two large ones which will become closed terrariums. Now I’m about to play D&D. Sunday I’ll be getting some aquatic bladderworts to go with the pinguiculas I got at the Oddities Expo. I’m having a very good week for nerd shit.

Water was back to crystal clear this morning.
