The Good Things

[Soushi]

Hello Escapists.
Lets face it, the world can seem like a horrible and discouraging place some days. However, good news is the fuel that keeps people going and is what really ends up making a difference in the world. So, as messed up as this place is, what is some good news.
Responsible politics, humanities, advances in the human spirit, technology, ideas, statistics that show we are moving forward, equaility, anything that shows a positive upturn of the planet, please share it.
Let get together and show the hopeless that there is something out there worth living for, something worth saving. Besides, as nasty as humans can seem to be, as long as we have a perception of kindness and good, we have the capability to move forward in that direction.

Okay... GO!!!

Esquire Magazine comment on Canada as more than America's hat. Thats good news for us.

Cheese Toast from Sizzlers is what keeps me going.
Oh, and also deep and meaningful conversations at 2am under the stars drinking a cup of tea. Nothing is more peaceful.

Ummm...let's see. Good things. Ummm...well, Sindarin is good. Quenya is too. And The Lord of the Rings in general.

I found some cool videos for Sindarin as well.


I love Sindarin.

EDIT: The Tolkein video is Quenya, actually. My bad.

Be optimistic brother!

Just take some advice from the final strip of Calvin and Hobbes!

This comic strip made me cry out of pure beauty.

Tomorrow usually, and not watching or reading movie bob's stuff.

I'm an extremely positive person, and i've just gotten around to showing it more often. Plus, I have the attitude of "nothing is fact if i've experienced or observed it myself" Obviously I believe things I can't test (like going to the moon, etc) But it's always fulfilling to carry out an experiment my self. I like exploring, that kind of thing. Knowing theres always something new to do, learn, or see, keeps me going.

Waves.

Look. Beautiful, and will happily kill you if it gets angry.

Platypuses. And the Aurora Borealis.

I find little kids to fill me with a warm, fuzzy feeling that makes the sun shine a bit brighter.

These always make me think about how lucky we are to have gotten the gift of life:

Sex. Pizza. Girls. Love. Weed. Led Zeppelin. Sex. The Who. Parties. Friendship. Sex.

Valve is still making games (albeit at a very slow pace compared to other studios). Also, Duke Nukem Forever is actually coming out. On a more serious note...

Every night when I go to bed thinking that I had a good day, I have a little hope that the next day will be just as good.
