Proof of the indomitable human spirit.
Rules:
- Posts must inspire hope or highlight the beauty of existence
- Posts and comments harassing or antagonizing a real person will be removed
- Posts mentioning religious topics are allowed but religion should not be the main point of the post. E.g. “God’s beautiful world” is fine because of the “beautiful world” part, but “God loves you” isn’t because religion is the focal point
- Posts and comments judging group of people in negative way based on stereotype will be removed.
- No posts with toxic positivity. All human emotions are valid.

There's nothing you can do - you do what you can. Got it, just do nothing?
I know this is a joke, but I think the real point is anti-dooming. Your mind feels like there’s nothing you can do, but it’s hyperbole. There’s always something that can be done, and even just brainstorming what those things are in a hard time can help lift your mood. And it’ll help even more if you actually end up doing them!
