Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the various toxic behaviors that are not so slyly passed off as "virtues." Nothing quite brings the blood to a boil like someone who is out there putting on the act like they're all high and mighty, while in fact they're just stinking everyone else's existence up with toxic nonsense. So, if any of these ring a bell, they might bring back to mind that time you found yourself in the presence of someone who was just too clueless to recognize they were bringing everyone else around them down.

You be the judge on whether this Shopping Cart Theory holds any weight, when it comes to measuring whether a person is good or bad. The reality is, one might best be considered a good person if they do the right thing when no one is looking, or they have nothing to gain from doing it. So, I guess, an egoless act of kindness, generosity, and just trying to promote the well being of another.
One Tumblr thread leads into another, and they're all focused on honoring the strangeness of human beings. It's a fun shift in perspective to consider an alien fleet arriving, chatting it up with some humans, and ultimately being impressed/baffled over how humans pull off the crazy stuff that they do. Maybe aliens are the normal ones.
Yes, doing good stuff recklessly. That's one way to go about spreading love and kindness in the world. Approaching those moments when a stranger might be hurting for an act of generosity, not from a place of judgment, but love, is where it is all at. This Tumblr thread captures some of those moments when the good energy was being exchanged between human beings.
Sometimes it seems like the world is trying to bring you down, but it's healthy to keep things in perspective with wholesome memes and moments to fill up that health bar. So kick your fears and doubts in the crotch with some blessed images to light up the world with wholesome.
When this guy got looped into a baby birthing that he wasn't a part of, he still went down to see the new baby. Because why not? It makes you feel good to see random strangers making connections, especially with good humor involved, like this understanding customer who got a messed up pizza order.
This may come as a shock, but sometimes good things happen. And sometimes when bad things happen, people still care about each other. The idea is sort of foreign to us, but it's probably healthy to be aware of happy things sometimes. For more, here are wholesome memes to give your day a healthy pep talk.
We live in the middle of chaos. These people decided to throw some good energy into the mix with gracious acts of selfless kindness, and often times, without even gaining anyone's recognition. Next time you find some money conveniently lying around on the ground, consider the possibility that someone else left it there for you! Sometimes it takes a person with something extra, to make that move, to roll the dice, and say f*ck it to fate. We salute you Chaotic good people, you keep us on our toes.

Amou Haji is an 80 year old man who has chosen to live a solitary, nomadic life in Southern Iran. He hasn't bathed in 60 years and smokes a pipe filled with animal feces. Haji believes "cleanliness brings him sickness," according to the Tehran Times.
Though his chosen lifestyle may seem a little off, including eating his favorite meal of dead, rotten porcupine, Haji may be happier than many who live that of a more conventional lifestyle. He says the lacking of material possession actually makes him happy.
