omg me too 😂 BUTTERFLY IN THE SKYYYYYYY 😭😂
When Shonen protagonists use the power of friendship to charge up their fireball uppercut.
what's a Shonen protagonist?
Basically DBZ derivatives, they start playing uplifting music when the protagonist is about to face defeat to smash the villain in the face.
and this is powered by friendship? ❤️ that does sound wonderful!
I was the weird 4H mom
hæmophiliacs, homosexuals, heroin users, and Haitians
I would love all those kids just the same ❤️
in case you actually are curious about 4H:
4-H is a U.S.-based network of youth organizations whose mission is "engaging youth to reach their fullest potential while advancing the field of youth development".
The goal of 4-H is to develop citizenship, leadership, responsibility and life skills of youth through experiential learning programs and a positive youth development approach.
Its name is a reference to the occurrence of the initial letter H four times in the organization's original motto head, heart, hands, and health, ...

I pledge my head to clearer thinking,
my heart to greater loyalty,
my hands to larger service,
and my health to better living,
for my club, my community, my country, and my world.
it can be a pretty cool organization for kids, depending on who leads the club your kid joins, but there are usually several clubs in an area that your family would qualify to join. we landed in one with other nerdy, neurodivergent families, and it was a great experience.
Live theater, especially a big-ass production with lots of singing and dancing makes all my "humans are cool actually" diodes explode and I always end up sobbing.
me too!! 🥰 people really going for it and giving it their all gets me too, especially a group getting after it as a team ❤️ gorgeous
i almost cried tonight watching a little surprise thing for a friend's birthday. one guy improvised a song on his keyboard for him and everyone was just super there for it. it was great
omg 😭😂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ that sounds amazing
it was so precious. i am very grateful for the people around me
Where I live, my apartment balcony windows overlook a school bus stop. It's a very racially mixed area. Lots of young first-generation immigrants as well. Seeing the kids from all those different religions and ethnicities talking and playing together is heartwarming.
Trans joy
ikr 🥰 we watched this video a couple weeks ago of a dancer pre-, during, and post-transition, and the way his movements changed made me cry ❤️ he was so much more confident and bold once he was free to be himself
Genuinely made me cry, trans people are so precious
Whales.
Its something about how graceful and beautiful and HUGE and social they are. I'm tearing up as I write this but thinking about their family structures, language and ancient migratory patterns really fucking gets me. I hope we figure out how to talk to the whales, I want to tell them I love them and I'm sorry for what we are doing to them.
Elephants do the same thing to me.
me too!! they give off such a vibe of deep wisdom, there's just so much intelligence and spirit in their eyes. I want to hug them 🥰
Getting texted back right away
Those videos where a kid asks their step-parent to adopt them.
aaaaaaahhhhh those get me too!!! 😭😂 and the ones where the step-parent surprises them with the adoption papers too, omg they absolutely destroy me 🥰😭 so beautiful
I haven't felt this joy for a long time, but I remember the last time was when the children were playing football.
