There is good news out there, it’s just a little harder to find those wholesome stories these days. People are stepping up and being the best versions of themselves, but all you hear about are folks panicking and buying up all the toilet paper.
In times of crisis, we have to be better. We need to lift each other up because it doesn’t seem like our governments will. It’s on us. I hope these people inspire you.

I just heard a story from a friend that her landlord is halving her rent for two months and giving her back the majority of her security deposit now to help bolster her and her roommate’s incomes since they work in retail and food service. Honestly. This is how you fucking do it.
