I’ve learned that checking comments in UpliftingNews is often counterproductive. Uplifting news, then someone posts a comment that just invokes depression all over again. Yes, I am directly referencing the user above you’s comment as one such comment—though just in case anyone is curious I didn’t downvote (in case one shows up), on topic, probably correct, and I don’t see anything on the sidebar saying depressing comments about how bad the thing the good news is opposing is would be against the rules.

So why am I in the comments now? Unfortunately bad habits are hard to break.
