We see a LOT of articles about how everything is going bad these days but can you share any positives that are happening right now to balance this out and give everyone a little bit of an uplift?

Advances in science/medicine…and if everyone had equal access to these advances–or even the basics–that would make it even better!
The most positive thing I see is technology may yet again save us again. By us I mean the USA and by save us I mean a novel technology. A tech that will be kinder to the environment, create more wealth that in turn creates more jobs, and provides a path for young people to escape debt while becoming established. It happened in the 1980s & 1990s with the computer revolution and the internet. Things were similar to today (though not as bad) and the USA was hitting a wall when it came to a better life. That changed with the Information Technology revolution and I hope it will happen again today. Putin and Xi must bite the pillow to see Musk shooting rockets into space weekly and now Brant & Bezos have joined the party too. The revolution may come from somewhere else, but where ever it comes from, I hope it improved the lives of everyone. History repeats itself, don’t fail us now history!!
Oh I love this! Today in the modern world, I have been able to talk to my grandparents more, and my uncle. I can keep track of my friends and check in on them when I feel as if they someone to lean on. Overall, while I seem unsociable- and I am as an introvert- I actually have managed to have a full and sociable life thanks to our tech!
Anti vaxxers screwed up US healthcare system aside, modern medicine.
Although there are a ton of conditions we cannot cure and/or treat all that well there are many more that we can. Medicine has come a tremendous way just in my life time. It’s got farther to go yet, especially when pseudo science is thrown into the mix. But we can cure and treat more illnesses, injuries and diseases now than when I was born.
I don’t have to sweep. Because of Roomba and a nice vacuum that can go on wood/tile, too.
