all bad things and good things and neutral things are henceforth BANNED.
only 🐡 things can stay.
Knowing the malleability of the human mind, I'm trying to condition myself into being happy when bad things happen. Since we live in a world of shit where the media obsesses over every single negative, this goal is logical, in a pragmatic way. As long as the news focuses on the bad, it only makes sense to condition myself to have a positive response to the most common stimulus. Why become "numb" to the negative aspects of the world when you can turn them around and make them into personal positives? I'll know I have succeeded when an erection and a smile is my natural response to the next mass shooting.
