I’m Honestly Fed Up With All The Bad News, So I Illustrated 50 Of The Best Ones From 2019
We are often bombarded with fear-mongering and shocking headlines that make us feel that the world is falling apart.
However, while it’s important to report on problems and issues, I believe there is so much good in this world that it needs to be found and promoted just as widely.
Because of that, I started The Happy Broadcast. It's an anti-venom to the vitriolic rhetoric that pervades our media. Also, this year, I’ve illustrated even more happy news than in 2018.
We need more positive news to acknowledge that the world is actually getting better little by little.

When I'm working on The Happy Broadcast, I try to pick news that has an international appeal and touches themes like animal rights, climate change and science. News that shows how much we’re progressing on many fronts despite being often bombarded with few-mongering headlines.
I am so happy for their victory, but just find it bonkers that an indigenous tribe had to fight a legal battle to protect their land in the first place.
I think there are many reasons why negative news is dominating the media. It's like a sudden disaster a, it's more compelling than, for example, little improvements. Bad things can happen quickly, but good things aren’t built in a day, and as they unfold, they're out of sync with the news cycle.
As humans, we have this thing called “negative bias” that make us respond quicker to bad or dangerous situations. Nowadays, this bias is getting in the way of our happiness and well-being, and even our productivity because most of the narrative surrounding us (print, online or mobile) is that the “world is ending".
I think we should find a balance between negative and positive news. From politics to climate change and economy, negative and bad news surrounds us everywhere we go. A potential solution could be to limit the amount of bad news, basically slow down our personal news cycle, adding some positive news to our “news diet” to make sure that our outlook on the world is more optimistic. Also, it's very important to invest time to deal with misinformation and the reliability of news sources.
Hm, I think Sweden must have forgot to apply then. We dont have stray dogs, at least for decades. Any lost dog gets collected, if no owner is found it gets adopted via Animal Protection. I have seen one or two lost dogs, where we found the owner, but never a genuine stray.
SOOOO not against this! But....shouldn't it be equal pay for equal skill? (meaning, no race, gender, age, or any discrimination at all!) If you have more skill in the task, you get paid more, if you have less you get paid less. Plain and simple (yet I know it is more difficult to prove wrong-doing that way too)
AlphaPuck, you must not know anything about Capitalism. As a private entity, YouTube can do whatever it pleases. If it wanted to only post hate speech it could. If it wanted to be only cat videos it could. The government cannot tell YouTube how to run a business. As a publicly traded company, the SEC requires it to follow GAAP principals but nothing more.
Load More Replies...This isn't actually that good. A lot of these channels aren't white supremacist channels or inspiring hate speech. A lot of them are actually history and educational channels that have been automatically removed because they're discussing sensitive topics. The software that YouTube uses to remove channels is really bad and hurts more innocents than people who deserve to be kicked.
It's a blow for the white supremacists but it's also a blow for human rights in general. People need to be more careful of what they wish for because it could just as easily be them and their ideas on the chopping block. The answer to bad speech is good speech not less speech.
Load More Replies...First they came for the antivaxxers, and I did not speak out— Because I was not an antivaxxer. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. Banning people is a slippery slope.
Load More Replies...YouTube is also demonetizing a lot of really useful educational channels but they can work on that in the future. This is most definitely a great thing nevertheless.
The robot that controls demonetisation just needs to learn.
Load More Replies...Free speech is always a tricky subject. True believers of free speech will protect the rights of everyone, even racists, to say what they have to say. Allowing someone to speak their mind isn't condoning the ideas, but letting those ideas be expressed and discussed does help society. In an ideal situation alternative points of view get shared as well and a healthy discussion happens.
Free speech does NOT mean that anyone is required to give you a platform.
Load More Replies...Not a fan of this one, if you believe in free speech, then you believe in free speech. Nothing should be suppressed, if you don't like something, don't watch or listen to it. Before long YouTube will turn into a regular outlet for big cooperate news and propaganda just like terrestrial TV, and that was what made YouTube a success in the first place, it was normal people sharing their own thoughts. Don't let big brother claim all our freedoms in the name of censorship.
I don't think you understand the concept of free speech. Free speech means the government cannot imprison you for your political opinions, it doesn't mean private companies can't set their own rules and ban users who don't meet up with those rules. Like in school when teachers say you're not allowed to swear; they're not restricting your free speech, but telling you what the guidelines for that community is and you need to follow them in order to be a member of that community. Likewise YouTube as a private company is allowed to set up its rules and you're expected to follow them. YouTube can ban nazi s**t and hate speech and it has nothing to do with freedom of speech.
Load More Replies...As if they already don't? White people get banned from those sites for any possible reason. I once pointed out that black users kept making violent threats to me, and got banned for 30 days. Those sites definitely have an anti-white bias.
Load More Replies...Louis Farrakhan still has his channel up calling for the eradication of Jews, where are the censors?
Right, and now remove the anti-vaxx, flat earth, big pharma conspiracy and all the other loonies spreading misinformation. When will Facebook start cleaning their website?
Censorship mentality. You guys can't be real... You are the ones destroying our freedom by being unable to cope with some marginal behaviors and letting the elites control our culture and thoughts.
Load More Replies...Yet Antifa and BLM, violent terrorists both, will continue the cycle of hatred.
This is a terrible idea, who decides what hate speech is. There goes the 1st amendment
I know YouTube is a private company, however its traded on the public market; I understand that it may not be something we all want to hear (so don't look it up), but how are they restricting the right to freedom of speech? Now with a freedom comes the consequence but still. Let them post so we know who to stay away from.
Being on the public market doesn’t mean that a corporation must follow federal free speech laws. If you curse out your boss you are getting fired, public market or not,
Load More Replies...Problem is, they don’t know what real white supremacy and “hate speech” is compared to having freedom of speech and differing opinions.
knowing youtube it probably just banned channels using the ok hand meme
Unless they remove “RACIAL supremacist” content then it’s just part of the liberal ambivalent racism agenda. It’s becoming common for some black supremacists to come out of the woodwork now. And this supremacy clearly stems from racial tension. And the racial tension is being pushed by our leaders (media, govt, music..) I’m tired of hearing yokels say the n-word talking about dumb s**t like “shipem back to Africa”. So I totally get banning that content. I just don’t see a difference when some black person is talking about superior genes, melanin being some kind of superhuman feature that makes darker skinned people genetically superior is a supremacist idea nobody’s ready to talk about.
I agree, same goes with the “Dear White People” trend. Please don’t pigeonhole me...I can’t dance, I talk like a Valley Girl, I’m uncool, I eat mayonnaise on everything. Puh-leeze stop! It’s hurtful both ways, people!
Load More Replies...Ah yes, censorship, surely this won't be coming back to bite anyone in the a*s. All we can hope for is that if this is happening they enforce their rules fairly, black supremacists, nazis, commies, feminists, and all other hategroups.
Corporations are paying big money to have space on youtube since TV is dying. People are being banned because of political speech, not hate speech. What created youtube was cringe and political speech. Corporation Channels are being promoted artificially and freedom of speech is being censored, this is not to be celebrated, what ever happened to diversity. YouTube has become a tool of oppression.
Who determines what is white hate speech?.. and how about other races that engage in hatred...
THANK YOU. As if they’re the fount of hatred. It’s this group that gets the most attention, so they’re only caving in to pressure
Load More Replies...What is tough is that teachers and professors wanted to show historical German Nazi films and were unable to.
Let's not learn from our past, let's repeated it. How idiotic is that???
Load More Replies...entirely sick of the white man’s burden, myself
Load More Replies...it is basicly censorship. and not vieuwing other politic vieuws is a danger to a good democratic ruling
Yeah because free speech doesn't include the things that you disagree with.
Free speech only applies to the GOVERNMENT. Jesus, read up on the damn thing before trying to whine about it.
Load More Replies...How about removing ALL supremacist content and ALL hate speech across the board? It's not all just white you know.
knowing you tube it probably just banned channels that used the ok hand meme
Censorship is not good news. You need to have open debates and access to content if you plan to fight it. Daylight is the best antidote for hate. Censoring ideology just legitimizes its victim status and sends it underground where it grows, unchecked by intelligent debate.
They are also demonitizing channels that are popular because the don't fit with their VERY liberal agenda
now waiting for the rest of hate speach anti christian anti white and anti conservative channels to be taken down too for equal rights
The people who OWN the damn thing gets to decide, that's who....just like YOU get to decide what type of speech is allowed on YOUR privately owned platform. This is not hard.
Load More Replies...Define "white supremacist content" and define "hate speech" and don't give me that youtube is a private company s**t. By law it's a public platform but right now it's acting like a publisher. This isn't good news, this is censorship and we can never celebrate the death of free speech.
Hmm define your terms. Your free speech might be the speech someone else hates and wishes to muzzle and deny your rights.
This is censorship - period. What will be next - removal of Christian channels for denouncing homosexulaity.
I may not like some messages but I much more don't like being told what I can talk about and what I can't, who gets demonetized and who gets artificially more or less exposure to viewers.
Load More Replies...It's really important to remember that white supremacy get people murdered. Of course it's only right to exclude that type of content.
So since Black Lives Matter “protests” only get people assaulted, I suppose that’s okay?
Load More Replies...I do not advocate for white supremacy but free speech is free speech. The entire concept of free speech is to protect speech that we do not like, speech we all agree with does not need protecting. Bad or evil ideas die when exposed. The proper response to speech you do not like is to present a better argument, not silence it.
Poor, cruel human beings, you never be free of each other hatred, because you do not respect earth and all the life it supports; you plunder, massacre, torture, and heinously kill every living thing, that is why you will never tolerate each other, will never live in peaceful co-existence.
Load More Replies...As long as there are "people" who are irresponsible, hateful, unethical, cruel, compassionless, disrespectful of any living, breathing, sentient being, the censorship, laws, and regulations are NECESSARY.
Load More Replies...This sounds good, but can be a very slippery slope if one does not go by the law strictly and instead imposes restrictions that would simply fall into freedom of speech. Who is it that will determine what is acceptable and what is not? Will it eventually lead to promotion of propaganda rather than being a platform for all law abiding individuals?
How is this progress? We're now one step closer to having a Ministry of thought, and do we really want YouTube to decide what is OK to talk about and what not? You don't solve hate by turning a blind eye, it's a long and painful process that we will have to go through one way or another. I understand that trying to convince hate preachers is like talking to a wall, but banning them is descending to the same level and creating an opportunity for them to have tighter communities, which will be more difficult to find... at least now we know where they are. We have a challenge as a society, are we really going to cower away and pretend that that part of the world doesn't exist??
Humans are incapable to rule themselves, to coexist in peace, that is because the human being is a virus which plagues our planet, not the species that shall protect ALL life. "I pledge allegiance to the fauna and flora, and all life it supports. One planet, indivisible, with safe air, water, and soil, justice, equal rights and peace for all." Take this pledge, you'll be better for it.
Load More Replies...The problem is that they are not just banning these channels, they are banning or demonetizing good people, right winged and conservative videos which are falsely being labeled as "hate speech". What constitutes as hate speech can be awfully subjective and is at the mercy of who ever is the last human to check on the bot's results when someone calls out unfair and unnecessary punishments. They probably need a more politically diverse cast to make these final decisions and it should be fine, unless it's someone unironically calling for the eradication of all blacks, whites, jews, christians and so on then there is not much room for doubt. lol
That old "what goes around, comes around" applies here: human beings are incapable to rule themselves and live in peaceful co-existence with each other - there's reason for that, the reality is that humans are vile species - human being is a virus which plagues our planet, not the species that shall protect all life. That is plain reality everybody can understand. Only the merciful can survive.
Load More Replies...THey better watch this one. I am against any race supremacy but I am white, and I know places like youtube are banning a whole lot of things THEY say is bad, but it is just people who have other opinions than they. LEt's not give them full reign here or something you might be passionate about may be banned!!! Banning things is always the way evil govts. take over. Keep America free, and let's work on putting better things on the Internet that will uplift and help the country.
right! it’s getting very Red China when we start filtering
Load More Replies...should be youtube is suppressing free speech, And propping up media-stream media s**t no one wants to watch anyways
Let's prop up media where everybody is respectful and objective. Media which report the truth, the facts.
Load More Replies...But they're also censoring channels that have a more conservative based opinion, even the most respectful ones.
Freedom of speech is important even to allow those twunts to speak. If you disallow their ugly speech, you don't know who they are when it comes time for fascist punching.
In Indonesia there are many hate speech by islamic leaders and YouTube do not remove them
This isn't "good news". It's news that supports censorship and oppression. What it means, is that white supremacists will band together in small private cells where they are completely secluded from outside influence. That means they are more likely to do stupid stuff and act out their extremism and commit terror. Google/YouTube is actually responsible for that by way of pushing them off their platform. That's not good news. That's news on how a freedom, the freedom of speech, is being destroyed for profit, while creating a more dangerous world in the process. Especially considering how Google is being completely biased on the matter, and not removing Extreme Left Wing groups, or extremely racist groups of other colours (they actually exist). This is purely virtue signalling that ends up making them into anti-freedom bigots themselves.
The government is not prosecuting them based on their speech, so no "freedom of speech" is being "destroyed"...since that freedom ONLY applies to the government and its entities. So sick of you racist apologists crying about your freedom of speech being taken away...and don't seem to even know what the damn term MEANS. Hint: a private company removing Nazi videos on its OWN platform that is in no way government affiliated is NOT IT.
Load More Replies...And it took the guts of a small nations Prime Minister for it to happen
Thank you Jacinda for being proactive and making one mans hate spark change
Load More Replies...Tariq Nasheed is still there. Imagine that. He is a black supremacist
Unfortunately, youtube is defining "white supremacy" and "hate speech" as anything that isn't Liberal Democrat-speak.
I don't understand how we go to the point where targeting specifically "white supremacist" content does not outrage everyone. I would prefer much less censorship in the first place, but what worries me as much as overt censorship, is asymmetry. What about promoting Marxism-leninism, promoting Bolshevism? Since when are those acceptable? Is it because this kind of hate is targeted against middle-class (in practice, because upper-class only in theory)? Is it because in practice in Europe and USA much of this middle class will be white conservative families? I don't like where this situation is going, I do not find censorship good news - it seems like it is smuggled among a lot of ecological and social good news, while on it's own is Orwellian.
YES YES YES! Now if we can just Face Book to give a sh*t and fact-check political content...
Unfortunately, they--like Patreon--have also banned channels and demonetized videos that were merely contentious, usually by those who are not in favor of Leftist policies and positions.
and so they should there is no place for these hate preachers and their ilk!
There are many more instances of hate and cruelty what should be banned, not just white supremacist content.
Thank you! We are held hostage by our values. We assume the next voice will be reasonable. We stand by the 1st Amendment while allowing propaganda to be disseminated to a desperate, willfully ignorant group of people.
Can the same be done for other extremist propaganda including from Radicalised islamists please?
It is not good.I believe in free speech and I think everyone could say what they think.Also Varg Vikernes's channel is shut down because of this thing
Why is white pride called and condemned as White Nationalism while Black Pride Gay Pride TransPride etc are celebrated and encouraged? Double-standard hypocrisy courtesy of the Project to Create Division USA.
This makes it seem that white supremacy is the only type of hate speech. That's not true.
I suppose if people don't understand the principle of free speech they deserve the real fascism that those big corporations are preparing for them.
And now big corporation gets to decide what is and what is not fascism. GREAT NEWS if you're a total imbecile or a drone.
Hope they do the equivalent for Islamic radicalisation. Has to work both ways.
Other than banning white supremacists I am not sure if this is good news. Virtually anything can be labeled as hate speech and banned this way. Orwell here we come :)
What about any other race supremacy? While, yes, this is great news, if a minority said what was said in the white supremacist’s videos, but directed at white people, would anyone care?
This could be good and bad. Any violent speech or speech about any human being more entitled than another should be banned. This should not be limited to white supremacy, examples that should included Are men say women don’t deserve soMething or deserve physical violence, or if religious beliefs proclaim the non believers should be physically punished either through violence or deprecation of basic necessities.
Freedom of speech? This is NOT a good idea: who are YouTube to judge what is good and what is not- they simply deliver THEIR agenda this way with censorship. Naturally, loving people keep away from hate speech....
They should turn their focus towards india too...especially the current ruling party
Good. Just hoping “hate speech” and difference of opinion aren’t synonymous.
Opinions which do not insult, offend, belittle, are objective and based on facts and truth. Yea right, that will happen.
Load More Replies...You Tube banns anything it wants to. They have no clear terms of service. Now they've stopped the guise and changed their terms to allow the demonetization of anything "non-commercially viable." The purges have been fairly arbitrary as of late and ultimately will only serve to help a better platform that respects free speech come to replace it. A large corporation should not have editorial control over all public discourse; that is detrimental to democracy.
Terrific! I do wish they would stop cutting out Christian channels! But then of course, it is Google!
MOST of these people were not hateful at all, they just had opinions Youtube didn't like. Youtube is a PLATFORM NOT A PUBLISHER.
Although this hate mongering needed to be banned in the first place, it is time for kindness to be spread, rather than all the negativity.
It must be kindness for all, not just to one's own kind, otherwise it will not materialize, as you can see just reading all those comments here. "I pledge allegiance to the earth, to the fauna and flora, and all life it supports. One planet, indivisible, with safe air, water, and soil, justice, equal rights, and peace for all." Let's just shake off that human arrogance and we all be free to live in peace!!!
Load More Replies...Go you tube. Now let’s get Facebook on board and we might get rid of Trump...
To that person who is for free speech: why did you down-voted Kristen's comment?????
Load More Replies...Now, if it only also banned misogynist content, that would be the biggest step to becoming the most progressive platform out there. Maybe it would finally force facebook to become less tolerant towards misogyny and every other kind of chauvinism.
I'd actually suggest banning sexist content altogether, not just that which is against women, have you seen how infested youtube is with feminist channels?
Load More Replies...That rule has also screwed over a lot of harmless channels so it's not really positive.
They should ban any hate speech, regardless of color. White, black, red, green - ban it all.
and then introduced the law which deprives of work many artists, doll customisers marking them as content for children...
Don't understand why anyone thinks this hate speech is in any way OK. It's NOT!
Who judges what is hate and what is free speech? Very precarious branch they are going out on!
But, according to their CEO in a recent "60 Minutes" interview, deciding which to remove v. Constitutional Rights is making this a near-impossibility; in essence, who decides?
Good for true hate speech. Unfortunately, too many Liberals think that sharing biblical morality on sexual behavior is also hate speech.
No Edward, it's oppressive, as not all religious "moralities" are humane and righteous. Religions committed, and still are, horrible violence, as that particular sexual behavior you mentioned committed none.
Load More Replies...They need to ban religious exclusivist content First. They don't have the guts or brains to do it I guess!
Exactly, religions have all that love and peace on paper, however, they are first not live by them. Did religion ever bring people together?
Load More Replies...Based on what kind of material? Who makes those decisions? I believe we still have freedom of speech, or did we lose that one already? Almost anything you say these days is considered hate speech. Does that mean Maxine Waters has to keep her trap closed, or is she exempt?
Only responsible and objective individuals should be granted freedom!!! Freedom must be earned.
Load More Replies...What about the black hate speech channels? All hateful content should be banned.
Taffy, if there's something to be proud off and that's not, just cruelty - torturing innocent animals for entertainment, for example bull"fights", that is a huge joy for them. I'm so grateful and admire those courageous people who fight against those atrocities.
Load More Replies...Yes, yes yes, let’s hope all other Social Media follow this and soon,
I hope they remove those black woman hate videos. So many pre-adolescent black females watch those and want to kill themselves by 11.
Who's to say what is 'hate speech' and what isn't? One person's gospel is another's hate speech. It's all a matter of perspective. Yes, banning does violate the 1st Amendment, no matter how much someone tries to deny it.
Do you know history at all? Do you know what happened when hitler started his hate speech against jews, minorities etc? And banning it doesn't violate the 1st Amendment- youtube isn't about your Amendments- it's worldwide. It's not all about you. Take your Amendments and stick it up yours already. The world doesn't revolve around you anymore, neither you're great anymore. Go whine somewhere else.
Load More Replies...so by the logic noted in comments below, all of these "white supremacists" (says who?) are calling for violence? i hope they also go after black lives matter "fry em like bacon" content creators and anyone who says scary things that might not be part of the mainstream media narrative
I don't believe it. They will only ban content by Peripheral little known groups. Pretty sure they won't be banning videos of Trump rallies,
Stop watching them then, I never encountered such content browsing the site for years.
Load More Replies...maybe the supremacists are just jealous that the darker- skin- colored peoples ancestors have a better skin tan than them
Not sure why you needed to specify your race, whites are just as capable of being wrong on a fundamental level, I guess it maybe makes your situation a bit sadder, hating yourself that much...

General Zod, that's not true. The defining rule is POWER; when power shifts the one who was oppressor becomes oppressed, and the one who was oppressed becomes oppressor.

Although the use of solar panels is green, many solar panel manufacturing processes are not. To create a solar panel, caustic materials will emit greenhouse gases. Plus less than 11% of each panel has salvageable metals so they're not very recyclable once they're usable life has expired. Most people aren't aware that the 'green' alternatives often aren't.

It is necessary, because often private investors will support male entrepreneurs over female entrepreneurs. This happens mostly due to people in power currently being predominantly male and as many studies have proven, men are much less likely to believe that women are capable of success in a serious work environment. This can be ascribed to both deliberate and subconscious sexism. It's the same argument for why people of ethnicities other than caucasian should be given benefits that equalize the playing field. A group in power will not willingly give over their own power.

It's good to see someone wanting to spread good news! Sad that so many people had to add negative comments to many of them, kinda missed the point didn't they?
This is the most amazing post I read in the last few years!! Thank you for gathering such valuable content and making such beautiful, interesting illustrations!! Love the way each pic is designed. Please make it a video and I'm sure many will watch it.
What about stop complaining about bad news, and get to work to fix what's bad in the world; then, there would be only good news to report. Get involved.
Thanks Bored Panda, much good news, also, great information !!!
I think a balance is better. Transparency reduces corruption. Confidentiality "divides and conquers" unity in humanity. All CULTures reduce free thinking and truer happiness. Imagine developmentally disabled having equal power and wealth to intellectuals.
When I read these good news headlines, it helps me realize that we are making progress. Yes, there's a lot of bad news in the world, but good news is just as plentiful when we look for it. Good news is healing. I'm sharing this on all my social media pages!
Lifted me ... made me smile. Thank you for sharing such great news.
Best news I've read in a long time. Thank you this has given me hope for the future and made me happy.
Love the illustrations and news they represent. Would like to have a link to the original news story for reference plz
Thank you Mario. A good effort was put into this and it was very interesting. Just a pity our world is so distorted that these things happen once in a blue moon. We can have the world be mostly fantastic and turn things around. But we have to withdraw from bank issued money. This is imperative if we want peace in the world and in our lives because banksters will bleed you dry. Yes even you.
Awesome post -- I agree that there's WAY too much negative bias on the internet. One of my favorite pieces of "good news" from this year is that the European Investment Bank, the world's largest multilateral lender, recently announced that it will stop funding fossil fuel projects by 2021 and divert those funds to renewables instead. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-climate-europe-eib-idUSKBN1XO2OS
I love it, now this should inspire all countries to follow, not just one!
Thank you! If we keep this up maybe the future generations will actually have a planet
There's been a ton of great news lately though, communists got BTFO'd in a lot of western countries, the US economy is doing great, brexit is finally going to go through without impedance. Overall SJW's are losing and the people are regaining some of their power.
This made me feel good!! I do wish I hadn't read some of the comments though. Just be happy with the good stuff!!
That was a tonic. I am going to save it to look at when I get down about the state of the planet.
This should be printed and bound into a children’s book annually! I would totally buy it for my nieces and nephews
Reading this just made me feel sadder! How can homo sapiens have developed so much technology and yet remain so stupid! So sad...
Thank you sooooo much. I bet there are plenty more of these positive news. If we could concentrate on those instead of bad news, scandals, fake news and all the bs we are exposed to everyday, the world would be a better place. I applaud your dedication.
This was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL. Thank you so much for taking the time to put together and share this positive news with the rest of us.
Nice list of happy events except don't see why Taiwan would be happy about joining the morally depraved countries that support homosexuality.
I have been plagued with depression for weeks. Blah. I cry every morning. This morning, it was finally about something good. Thanks Bored Panda for making this the top story in my email.
When you are bombarded with stories of decline, loss, and hopelessness it is easy to think "Why bother" - this is why we should bother! Perhaps the news channels should take a leaf out of Mauro Gatti's post and throw us a sucess story once and a while. Thank you
I've been reading a lot of pessimistic stuff lately, so this really helped me out. Thanks. :)
Love these happy, good-news stories; keep them coming to preserve our sanity!
Thank you for Real life giving News Strange to Feel so starved Overwhelmingly Grateful for a glimpse of life giving World issues included in the news For the eyes ask us to consider: the addiction to trauma can be Starving this species Reading what feeds us life may be more critical to survival than Tracking the enemy.
3 things to say! 1. All of this is magnificent! Bravo to all 😊👏🏻 2. It’s so sad to see the differences between parts of the world-some make fake islands for flora and fauna while some are getting electricity. 3. People are awful. To even come to this state,to destroy everything on their way... In any case,kudos for all the positivity here 😊
I am sad to see the us very low on the list of contributions. We as a people need to start to fight again for the rights of our children, grandchildren, etc. We expect them to respect us, when we do not have any respect ourselves. Let us make 2020 a year where there is more good news than bad.
Fantastic !!! Thank you for this very welcome GOOD NEWS ✨⭐️🌟💛 I love positive movements !!! Signed: a Dutch artist living in the midst of the frequent strikes in Paris.
This gives us all hope and inspiration to make a difference. Thank you. Plus the drawings are so adorable. Had a smile on my face the whole time while reading the piece!
Thanks. I sometimes think networks, including weather channels, search out the most Godawful stuff they can find. A little "fair and balanced" would be nice . This helps.

And I'm glad that I read it yesterday when there were over 100 posts and not just the 50 that are left now...
Load More Replies...Posts like these give me faith in humanity. Don't get me wrong, it's important to be informed about world issues, but it's nice to escape that every once in a while and know how far we've come.
Life is calmer when people take care of their little spheres in the world and stop obsessing about the whole world. People who mire themselves in the world's problems start to see people as the enemy.
Load More Replies...WOW!!!! This may be the best boredpanda post EVER!!!! Boredpanda needs to post more like this.
Thank you. I really needed this. My faith in this world and humanity has been at an all time low lately. We all could do with more good news in the world.
quick share these for when they suddenly don't exist anymore

Load More Replies...This is a great post and many of these are amazing things, the problem is that the more we keep people alive and the longer they live the bigger the population gets which isn't sustainable. So it's a double edged sword. It's a catch-22.
Really fun, informative, and feel-good post. Needed this today.
Thank you, these are great. I would love to have each meme linked to a reliable source so I can happily spread them around with the source link! What you think??
Thank you very much to make me happy today! Btw, #39 and #46 are the same...
It's good to see someone wanting to spread good news! Sad that so many people had to add negative comments to many of them, kinda missed the point didn't they?
This is the most amazing post I read in the last few years!! Thank you for gathering such valuable content and making such beautiful, interesting illustrations!! Love the way each pic is designed. Please make it a video and I'm sure many will watch it.
What about stop complaining about bad news, and get to work to fix what's bad in the world; then, there would be only good news to report. Get involved.
Thanks Bored Panda, much good news, also, great information !!!
I think a balance is better. Transparency reduces corruption. Confidentiality "divides and conquers" unity in humanity. All CULTures reduce free thinking and truer happiness. Imagine developmentally disabled having equal power and wealth to intellectuals.
