Happy News
Aren't we all tired of reading miserable news every day? And we cannot even be sure if they are real or fake. So I was thinking about throwing some (in your opinion) positive headlines out there, unfortunately not real though. I'll be happy to see ya'll's headlines you would like to read in the newspaper one day. It could be about baby giraffes, politics, the environment, unicorns, yourself, close to reality or not, what ever you got in mind.
Bitcoin goes up to $10000?
Donald Trump resigns?
Dog saves baby's life?
Law about less sugar in processed foods?
Dream on, be creative and Steemit!
Writing this a video comes to my mind :
Ah ha ha, I love the Yes Men.
"Pope encourages all countries of the world to provide adequate family planning and female health provision, including legalisation of abortion"
The Pontiff tells speechless reporters that whilst he does not condone abortion, considering it a grave sin, he realises that it is more morally offensive to criminalize and vilify young women who may in turn risk their own well-being in seeking back street procedures, or self-medicate with pills procured via the internet with no medical supervision. "It's a bit like the criminalization of drug-use you see", he explained, "criminalizing plain ordinary people just hurts society, hurts tender little souls and exacerbates pain and addiction". He explained that he realised that it was really quite unreasonable to dictate what they could or could not do with their bodies, just because of his own moral prognosis. "Yes I am the voice of God on earth" he said, "but we are all God". He reflected that perhaps the centuries of patriarchy and repression of women and their rights throughout the centuries by the Catholic church could in some ways start to be compensated for by conciliatory gestures from here on. "It is the Age of Aquarius after all", explained the Pontiff, "and surely empowering our sisters is one of the surest ways to address some of the more serious issues we are facing in today's age of ecological crisis and inequality. We are together".
(for sure this is a controversial contribution but I'd find it good news!)
I'd find it great news, too! Thank you, this is awesome, made my morning!!
"Recent survey finds that most people are planting food gardens and really aren't too fussed about the new iPhone"
A recent poll run by London newspaper finds that increasing numbers of British are reducing the hours they work and opting to live in Tiny houses, consuming less and spending more care free time with friends and family, and also joining in hoards to local gardening schemes.
Interviewing local Londoner this person said "Yeah mate, I realised that I was just slowly dying inside working a job I hate to buy shit that didn't make me happy that probably some poorly paid and poorly treated factory worker in Taiwan had made, to spend my time staring at a tiny little glowing screen. I mean stuff'n'technology is great n all but you gotta get real and spend some real time in the world with real people sumtimes innit." Mr Bradley had recently changed part-time in his work and was spending more time walking in the park with his dog Molly and helping plant carrots at his local allotments. "Yeah mate", said Mr Smith, "no-one really noticed it but it just started to sorta slowly happen, people talking about how shit capitalism is n' all innit, so they was just starting to do all sorts of urban gardening schemes an that n I just found it well inspiring".
Local supermarkets are noting marked reductions in their grocery sales and blame it on the green-fingered movement. CEO of Tesco laments that "it almost like a return to the pre-industrial age when lazy peasants would shirk about following their pigs up country lanes whistling and relaxing, it's a disaster for the economy", he becried, "we might need to lobby the government to bring in some sort of anti-allotment law or something along those line". He suggested that the supermarket industry might ally with pharmaceutical firms, who also are feeling the pinch now that use of anti-depressives has dropped by 50% in Britain.
There are emerging disturbing reports that similar patterns are emerging in other post-industrial and industrial nations such as the USA , China and Germany.
