Everything that can go wrong appears to do just that.

    Don’t want to be a toxic positivity preacher but what if due to our nature we simply pay little or no attention to things that go right?

      Yes.

      I always say the Internet is more vast than it is comprehensive. You will find infinite things. Infinite good things, but also infinite bad things, and infinite things on most topic.

      But certain actors on there have an interest to highlight bad things. That makes it real easy to slip into a negative feedback loop. And there’s so much, you will into a bottomless hole.

      And that’s when you always gotta peek your head over the horizon and look for things outside of your periphery. Because there’s more than problems.

      Even if you look back at where we’ve come from, the amount of struggles we’ve overcome already as a society is hard to fathom.

      My point is, either look for both negative and positive news accountings, or do neither and focus on a topic like games, or woodworking, or astronomy and just keep away from the sensational news pieces.

      There’s more to life than news anyway.

      These are the same creatures that go bellows over brimstone if they flip a water bottle that lands upright ?
