Be authentically you in every now moment! Looking back I distinctly remember my mom telling me to stop being dramatic or loud because, as she saw it, I was only seeking attention (don't hate on my mom, I hold no ill about it). I wasn't dramatic, or desiring of attention or outside validation but simply expressing my excitement about my world. So starting real young I would suppress myself for what I thought was the benefit of others. Turns out that was suppressing a grand design inside me meant to be shared.

While nihilism is defined as a viewpoint that rejects the existence of genuine values and beliefs and asserts the meaninglessness of life, the posts shared by the ‘Cheerful Nihilism’ Instagram account are not exactly focused on this viewpoint.
In their own words, “Cheerful Nihilism is just sparkling absurdism,” and absurdism can mean both—the viewpoint that the universe is irrational and meaningless and intentionally ridiculous or bizarre behavior. (It’s safe to assume that many of us have taken part in the latter.)
But today, let’s not focus on nihilism, nor absurdism. Let’s delve deeper into the cheerful part and focus on happiness instead.

Purpose? A cat's main purpose after eating and sleeping is to check out their territory, so they roam from room to room like a security guard checking to make sure everything is on the up and up. Then they eat and curl up for a nap.

YAY! I get to share something neat I learned years ago: Cats purr at frequencies that are scientifically known to maintain the health of bones, ligaments, muscles. Resting and purring is actually cat maintenance. It's also partly why it's just so friggin enjoyable having a cat purring and leaning on you - the vibrations and tones are literally designed to relax you. Funnily enough, this is not so effective when the cat snuggling up to you is, say, a cheetah or a mountain lion.... ;)

let’s all pause for a moment to consider the poetry of DAYGLOAYHOLE … my user names are so pedestrian in comparison
In a piece for Positive Psychology, behavioral scientist Nicole Celestine, Ph.D noted that the science of happiness is a rather new subject in the world of psychology, which used to mainly focus on the less positive aspects of life. However, nowadays, there’s much more information on what makes us happy and what we can do to continue to feel this way.
“The science of happiness has opened our eyes to a plethora of new findings about the sunny side of life,” Dr. Celestine wrote, before sharing some interesting facts based on research on happiness.
For instance, did you know that money can only buy happiness up to roughly $75,000? After this sum is reached, the monetary gains reportedly have no significant effect on our emotional wellbeing.
Another fun fact suggests that pursuing happiness through social means, such as spending quality time with friends and family, is believed to be more effective than other methods.

If you say "My friend is not here," that is a lie. You are deceiving the enemy. And it's 100% morally correct to lie in such a case. An ethical system that doesn't allow for it is wrong. Even if there are universal laws, there is no reason for those laws not to be nuanced. In other words, f*ck you Kant.

FFS. The Founding Fathers kept slavery and overlooked giving women the right to vote. I’m pretty “meh” about the whole American Revolution. As a woman, either way that war had gone, I would have been stuck obeying my husband or my father. As I see it, the American Revolution started because of rich white guys whining about paying taxes. Nothing has changed since then.
Another interesting thing about happiness is that it can, to some extent, be determined by genetics. But our experiences and our day-to-day lives reportedly play a more significant role than genetics does.
- Other correlational factors that affect our happiness include:
- Personality Type
- Positive Emotions Versus Negative Emotions
- Attitude Toward Physical Health
- Social Class and Wealth
- Attachment and Relatedness
- Goals and Self-Efficacy
- Time and Place.

When I found out that Ancient Greeks were aware of human-caused climate change and how we're still in denial thousands of years later, I realized that greed and hatred are the greatest forces behind our eventual extinction. Sure, it's ugly corporations, disgusting billionaires, and self-serving politicians who are at the helm of this sinking ship, but we, the passengers, tend to give it lip service without changing our habits and behavior. Let's face it. We don't deserve this planet.

I'd like to see your proof of that statement. The idea that human activities could cause climate change on a global scale emerged much later, in 1896. Egyptians did things to address local environmental issues but, there is a great deal of historical evidence of major pollution done by them including widespread deforestation and and a significant increase in environmental heavy metal deposition.

An Ipsos poll from 2022 found that the things that give people the greatest happiness are their health and well-being (both physical and mental), their family, and a sense of purpose. Back then, three years ago, across 30 countries, roughly two-in-three adults considered themselves “happy,” with the Netherlands and Australia topping the list of countries with the happiest people.
According to more recent data, The World Happiness Report from 2025, Finland is the happiest country in the world, followed by Denmark, Iceland, and Sweden, respectively.

At 51, I have failed in both career and marriage, and I've come to realize that nothing I do will mean much in the long view of this time in history. I do care about my country and the world at large, but I am powerless in the face of broader issues I cannot in any way control. The world will go on with or without me, so fvck it, I will do my best in my own small sphere of it. I will improve the lives of those I care about and be nice to those I meet, but as for the rest, I have not the fvcks to give for most of it.

I went to a deli some time ago, and got a sandwich. When the deli-master had finished constructing and wrapping the masterpiece, he held it up and said, "Beg?" I thought it was an unusual request, but I'm an accommodating sort of person, so I held my hands up like a dog's paws, lolled my tongue out, and panted. He looked at me, confused, picked up a small paper bag with his other hand, held up the sandwich and the bag, and asked "Do you vant a beg or don't you?"

Peace and harmony can't flow properly through a cluttered space. Kind of like Feng Shui. I know it sounds dumb and whatnot but here is an example. You ever go in someones house that is a wreck, feces on the floor, dust everywhere, clutter. You feel tight inside, like uncomfortable. But someones house that is nice and clean and organized makes you feel at ease. Peace and Harmony man. I don't go as far as to face things in a certain direction and all that, but I keep a tidy house.

No, I can honestly say I haven't ever gone into someone's house with feces on the floor. I think my sister has, though. Pretty sure she felt hella uncomfortable. But on the other hand, I've been in houses that are clean and organized and I don't inevitably feel at ease, I feel that the person is a control freak and that if I touch anything I will be risking some sort of scene. Just one mug in the sink would counteract all that, but evidently our two choices are utter chaos or diabolical perfection. Not a fan of either. My search for peace and harmony continues....

I was approaching my neighborhood cemetery one night, when I encountered a group of teenage girls. They stopped me and said they were afraid to walk past the cemetery at night and would I walk with them. I agreed and, when we got a bit over half way, I said, "You know, I was always afraid to walk past this cemetery when I was alive, too."

Did anyone see ''Glitch'' ? A delightful Australian TV program about people coming back. It was produced for three seasons, but they weirdly were aired two years apart, in 2015, 2017, and 2019, if memory serves. Check it out on imdb dot com.

A lot of the admiration for people who suffered is just a mechanism not to admit and feel oneself how horrible they must feel. See all the praise for Gisele Pelicot what a "heroine" she was for going to court. Very likely a court case would have happened anyway (in Germany at least, the victim doesn't decide whether there is a criminal court case). Not to take ANYTHING away from her, she's great! But all those "what a hero!" posts - where was the "OMG, just imagine how horribly she suffered, imagine your spouse did that to you" posts? Way, way less! In focussing on her strength people didn't have to com-passion (!) for her suffering.

One of our cats never left the entire mouse -- just the tail. Evidently it was the tastiest bit, in her opinion -- or the worst, because she knew we weren't going to eat it. One expedition produced a whole row of tails left on the doorstep.

Cats bring humans dead animals because they think we're stupid and need to be taught how to hunt. But it's also their way of showing affection by splitting it with you for lunch.

Mom is right! (In my country, many-many years ago, children were told not to drink too much water, otherwise a frog will develop in their tummies. Now, people (including children, of course) are actually encouraged to drink a bit more. My mother mused now children will be told that they should drink more, otherwise the frog won't survive in their tummies.)

Ed Walker 8 months ago
This autumn, when you see geese heading South for the winter and flying along in a ‘V’ formation, you might consider what science has discovered as to why they fly that way. As each bird flaps its wings, it creates ‘uplift’ for the bird immediately following. By flying in a ‘V’ formation, the whole flock adds at least 70% greater flying range than if each bird flew on its own. People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going more quickly and easily, because they are travelling on the thrust of each other. When a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to go it alone and quickly gets back into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird in front. If we have as much sense as a goose, we will stay in formation with those who are headed in the same way that we are.
