All of us want to do good! And with all that's been happening in the past few years, every kind deed is more than welcomed, no matter how big or small.
From spying on your friend's Spotify to check on their emotional state to disrupting an anti-abortion protest, there are plenty of ways to let people know you care. Some even choose very chaotic ones. As if they're acting solely as their conscience directs them, without any concern for what others expect of them.
The subreddit r/chaoticgood is exactly the place for all of you do-gooders whose methods are a little disorganized. This online community with almost 180K members is the place for you to post your chaotic actions.

No, You Get Candy!
The moderators of this subreddit explain that chaotic good is a character that "values freedom, for herself and others, and views the welfare of all as her business. She cannot tolerate cruelty or intimidation, and works to dismantle hierarchy and domination.”
Like stealing another person's underfed dog in order to save its life. Or dressing up as the Grim Reaper to remind people that there's still a pandemic going on. These are only a few examples of how this community does the right thing with little regard for laws and regulations.
Absolute Dominance
One of the subreddit's main symbols -- its name -- is a clear reminder of a popular fantasy tabletop role-playing game called Dungeons and Dragons (commonly abbreviated as D&D or DnD). As the title suggests, it's a magical world of over 300 creatures like giants, dragons, warlocks, dwarves and many more.
First published in 1974, D&D has long been part of popular culture and still remains one of the best-selling games in the US. During its forty years of history, the developers have created captivating board and video games, also novels written by its fantasy authors.

"We Have Found A Witch, May We [applaud] Her?"
As stated in their official website, “The core of D&D is storytelling. You and your friends tell a story together, guiding your heroes through quests for treasure, battles with deadly foes, daring rescues, courtly intrigue, and much more.“ In short, one player, the Dungeon Master, facilitates the game, controls the monsters and narrates the story. Others develop the characters and improvise on how they react to the story.

It's a great place to be anyone you want to be. Not to mention a perfect environment to discuss the concept of good and evil. Dungeons and Dragons even has an alignment system to help you create your little fantasy creatures. It also helps you categorize your character from an ethical and moral point of view.

In the original version, players were allowed to choose among three alignments: lawful, chaotic and neutral but since then it has evolved into nine alignments (and a 10th option for creatures operating on instinct, not moral decision-making).

You've guessed it, Chaotic Good is one of these alignments. In the official player's handbook, its even got a nickname—Rebel. These type of "creatures act as their conscience directs, with little regard for what others expect. Copper dragons, many elves, and unicorns are chaotic good“, as is stated in D&D's basic rules.

Genius Idea
Chaotic Rub
To get an idea of what such a character would look like, we could imagine a modern-day Robin Hood. Rebelling against authority as a way to protect the poor from poverty and suffering is one of his key traits. On top of that, he believes that the only way to do good is to dismantle the hierarchy and he can never be tied down to any organization.

Well, supernatural beings and fantasy worlds aside, we all know that it feels good to do good. The concept of “good“ might be thought of as something worth having or doing and enhances the life of those who possess it. But as the moderators of r/chaoticgood say, good is a relative term.

When we help others, we actually help ourselves. According to Dr. Stephen Post, "The evidence for the benefits of giving is now extremely powerful, and suggests that healthcare professionals might wish to recommend such activities to patients.“ Helping others fills your life with happiness, improves your health and can even make your life longer, as his research shows.

Another study came to a very similar conclusion; “doing good” may be an important avenue by which people create meaningful and satisfying lives. That's why so many people participate in meaningful activities such as volunteering. This only confirms that pleasure-seeking behaviors do not bring us as much happiness as... making others happy.

So it seems that the ends justify the means after all. It all becomes even more magical when the nature of chaotic good acts become alive in real life. Just remember, kind deeds make everyone feel a little bit better, so do one whenever you get the chance. Even if it's in the most chaotic way possible!
I Will Sponsor Your Child To Do This
Causing A Kid-Riot With Happy Bananas
The teachers a spoil sport. Kids need to learn they can't always get what others do and from a young age.
Sounds like you need to decorate 25 bananas for class -- one for each student!
OMG too much of a ruckus over a painted banana!? It makes you wonder what kind of gray prison-barred hellhole that classroom must be! This has got to be in some Southern U.S. state -- from my experience down there all most of the schools seem to care about there is controlling the children, could give a damn about them learning anything.
I used to draw Mario Bros scenes on my son's napkins when making his lunch when he was in primary school. He was the envy of his lunch table even though my drawings weren't great.
report that teacher immediately!!! i will explain the reason and significance later. Trust me!!
Gonna bet a parent was the one that instigated the ban cause makes her little angel jealous.
No teacher has such dictatorial authority. F**k their opinion, keep doing your art.
You're a bad teacher if you can't keep a class of 6years olds under control.
Ugh, schools are ridiculous about this kind of crap. They're SO worried about little Jack or Jane getting their precious feelings hurt or feeling left out, or worse, offending their mom Karen, that if everyone can't have something, than nobody can have ANYTHING. Kids need to learn that they don't always get what they want. That there's always going to be other people who have something better, or who have more than they do. That's just life. So is disappointment. So are hurt feelings. Nobody WANTS their kids to be hurt. And of course it should never be done on purpose. But when these things happen-in the normal course of life, NOT in extreme situations like bullying, etc-we should use it as a learning experience. We should use it to teach our kids how to roll with the punches and move on, and/or what they can do to better their own situation. Kids NEED to deal with all of that stuff sometimes, to learn to be healthy, well-rounded, productive adults. Otherwise they just end up as cod
Also, as an aside, teachers are so worried about kids getting jealous, that they banned BANANAS. Painted ones, but still, she banned freaking BANANAS. But yet they don't care if a kid is being bullied to tears every day. They will focus on asinine, stupid, idiotic s h i t like farking BANANAS, and ignore the kid in the back of the classroom who is taunting and poking and laughing at another kid, driving that poor kid into literal depression. Until that kid can't take it anymore, and finally snaps on his bully. They literally force bullying victims to take things into their own hands, because of their inaction. And then the VICTIM gets punished! It's unforgivable. Meanwhile they force a loving parent to stop doing a sweet thing that makes their kid smile, because the other babies got butthurt. Zero tolerance, my fat A S S.

How lifeless must your class be for a painted banana to cause a ruckus?! And, by all means, let's ban something that might enliven a child's imagination, sheesh. Check out Rebecca's artwork at her Twitter link (under the picture) if you're looking for a smile. Such wonderful, whimsical paintings and drawings, marvy!
You should make one with flash(sloth from Zootopia). I can hear Flash calling to Zac already

I hope that he means it in a caring friend kind of way and not trying to take advantage of her when she's vulnerable. It's hard to tell just by the post. EDIT: Thank you to the people who pointed out that I just made an assumption in regards to the person's gender. My sincere apologies, I should know better. I have no excuse.

Good Guy Tipper “Doesn’t” Tip *wink* *wink*
I used to be a carpet fitter and one day an old lady gave me a tip of a folded bunch of notes. When I got in the van instead of £1 notes she had given me ten £20 pound notes. This was in the mid eighties and was probably the equivalent today of about six hundred pounds. I went back to the house and her daughter had just turned up. When I told her she said it wasn't the first time it had happened and gave me one of the notes. I worried about it for quite some time after.

The world is full of very good people, and these are the ones we need to hear more about.
Example: The case of Hamburg-based politician Andy Grote, who was insulted on twitter as a "Pimmel" (lit. "d**k" although slightly different connotation... but fairly tame as insults go). Police went full force against the writer of that tweet - search warrant, phone confiscated, all that noise. Because someone called a politician a d**k on the internet. Made the news all over Germany and now there's a subtle war raging in Hamburg with people leaving stickers that quote the tweet all over the town. Put up a huge sign, even. Police keeps removing them or covering them up... but, unbelievably, they keep reappearing... ;)
Load More Replies...once, my friend (who lives in the south) f*cking scaled a building to steal and burn a confed*rate flag :D
your friend is amazing! Tell them thank you for their hard work!
Load More Replies...An example of chaotic good that I would do: breaking into peoples hoses to pet their dog and leave positive sticky notes behind
That didnt happen for me, might be a problem on your end, I think it's been happening for other people too. .maybe you can contact the help line?
Load More Replies...Yes. just like those 'criminal' partisans and "terrorists" of WW2. Nothing but shameful lawbreakers. There is a huge difference betwixt law and justice.
