There’s a corner of the internet where you will find mostly good vibes. It’s typically hidden beneath the hateful comments and toxic news cycles that flood social media timelines. 

So instead of making you do some digging, we’ve collected some images from the Falling In Society Instagram page. You will find a variety of posts as you scroll through, but we’ve focused on those that bring nothing but cheerful positivity

If you’re looking for a pick-me-up for today, hopefully, this list provides you with that.

    If you’ve noticed how most mainstream media outlets seem to focus more on the doom and gloom, that’s because it’s by design. As psychologist and New York Times best-selling author Dr. Rick Hanson explains, it’s a byproduct of the nervous system’s evolution over the last 600 million years, where our ancestors had to be vigilant about their surroundings.

    “They had to avoid two kinds of mistakes: (1) thinking that there’s a tiger in the bushes but actually all is well or (2) thinking that all is well while actually there is a tiger about to pounce,” Dr. Hanson wrote.

    Dr. Hanson says this hypervigilance against potential threats wired ancient humans into overestimating threats while downplaying opportunities and resources. This mindset has been carried over into modern-day humans, who tend to gravitate toward bad news and overlook the positive aspects of things. Experts refer to this as negative bias.

    It’s no secret that consuming positive news and other types of content online uplifts the spirit. However, according to positive psychology researcher Jodie Jackson, it can also help restore your faith in humanity.

    “News stories that focused on solutions were shown to boost a person’s belief in their ability to make a difference,” Jackson explained.

    Absolutely true. I’m 75 and do that, my daughter is 42and does that and HER daughter is 18 and does that. So multigenerational.

    But of course, it would be impossible to completely eradicate the negative content pieces, especially since they’re the ones that bring in the clicks and views. This is why Jackson believes in these two worlds co-existing rather than competing.

    As she stated, “We need to notice achievements alongside failings in order to understand the world more accurately.”

    I just had to change brands. I know. Bad. Rill bad. But the heat in the desert in the summer is brutal and my car, bag and outside porch chapstick just cannot survive. So I have change. Twice a year. It's chaos. Chaos I tell you!

    When my son was young he wanted to know if I would have more kids beside him and his baby sister. I was like, no where would the baby have to sleep? In your bed? We laughed about it. It was a cute way to say I'm done haha

    When I was much, much younger, one of my banks put in an accidental $900,000 in my checking account. I didn't touch a penny -- not even of my own money; I was so paranoid; I waited anxiously until they removed it. But now, knowing what I know about banks? I'm not so sure I'd be that nice -- to be honest. They would have to PROVE that it's somehow not my money! I'm on the side of Gen Z and frankly, if I'd had half their burdens, I don't know how my life would've turned out. They got shafted. Samuel-Jac...2280e8.jpg Samuel-Jackson-Enough-6843ce72280e8.jpg

    The worst. Even a half hour is annoying. Best: you wake up to go to the bathroom, thinking it's probably less than an hour until the alarm, but when you check it, you've still got over 4 hours left.

    change the time between thr alarms. if the second one is even a minue earlier or later, they wont be able to sleep after it because their brain will be telling them something has gone wrong. they will be in a s****y mood after though so use my advice carefully

    And she is a very lucky person to have someone not only as thoughtful as you, but also someone who can articulate their feelings about the person they love. I hope you tell her that all the time.

    Bro when your fingers are as big as mine and you don't have a Blackberry you have to retype every d**n word three times. So if you're loquacious it can take like half an hour to send a text. Longer if you use words like loquacious.

    Actually, it encourages me to drink tequila and lose sleep. I suppose that, eventually, somebody will make money off that.
