Tell Me Something Good

Today I am sad. I'm having a bad spell with my back, etc. and wasn't able to be as active as I would have liked while my mom was visiting earlier this week. Then someone I considered at least a friendly acquaintance said something so racist that I no longer want to know them at all. I won't post the gory details, but it was demeaning to my neighborhood and the majority of the people who live here. I'm almost a hundred percent sure that the person doesn't read this journal, and am not trying to be passive-aggressive or make anyone play the "oh no, was it me?" game. On the off-chance that they do see this entry, on behalf of my neighbors, Chris, and myself: Tough titty, said the kitty. Your bigotry sucks.

I'm tired of pain and so tired of people being uselessly ugly to each other. However, when I search the Internet for heartwarming tales that will renew my faith in humanity, they all seem to have the unswerving moral of "AND THAT'S WHY YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST LOVE JESUS (OR ELSE YOU'LL GO TO HELL)." I mean, I love Jesus, but even I don't want that shit. So how about some personal heartwarming tales? Did someone do you a kindness? Did you see something that made you think, "Hmmm, maybe the world isn't completely irredeemable?" Tell me about it; I want to know. Failing that, I'll take your favorite Trollface/Rage Guy comics.

I even tried taking some pictures of new kitten Alexa, but she would look dead, then jump up and do something adorable as soon as I turned the camera off. Sigh.
