Earlier today, I was thinking about creating more happiness for myself, when I came across this on BlueSky. It’s brilliant! We really can create happiness for ourselves. Doesn’t have to be a big thing. Admire some 🌺; soak in a 🛁; enjoy a yummy 🍮. Anything that adds a drop of happiness to your jar. 🫙

Fascinating chart with one outlier: Warren Buffett.
At the low end, giving 0.06% of one's wealth is equivalent to:
Net worth -> Lifetime Giving
50K->$30
100K->$60
500K->$300
$1M->$600
Most folks give far more by % in a *single year*.

Articles like this drive me fucking nuts, because how can you post a stat like "50% of Canadian women say they don't want kids" and state that they would if Canada became a place that "reveres motherhood," but never once consider they just...don't want to?

Taking an anti-vaccination stances against a treatment that saves the life of ONE IN FIVE HUNDRED KIDS and has no verified deaths involving healthy recipients is not just anti-science and anti-logic, it's evil. I have studied this disease too extensively to soften that word.
It's just evil.
