According to recent surveys, there is more negativity on social media than ever before. It’s likely why seeing something pleasant and uplifting online feels almost like a rarity. 

Fortunately, pages like the Buzzplus Instagram account continue to uphold positivity. You can spend hours scrolling through and, for the most part, enjoy some laughs and good vibes

Here, you’ll find wholesome memes and posts about weird kiddie costumes for Halloween, boomers taking selfies, and pet cats adorably acting out on camera. As usual, we’ve picked some good ones that may uplift you today.

Standing out as a positive voice in a predominantly hostile environment like the internet can be challenging. However, taking full responsibility for everything you post could help shift that mindset. 

An article by the Ohio State University Library emphasized the importance of keeping things classy because every piece of content you create reflects you. It’s a way to build an online presence, and it always helps to put your best foot forward.

While social media and the internet are self-expression platforms, ask yourself a question before posting: are you sharing divisive or inappropriate content? 

The OSU article mentions the 24-hour rule. Give yourself a full day before posting something that may feel questionable. It allows you to mull things over and prevent damaging your online reputation, which could hurt your personal brand.

Wow! I'm a teacher too and I do this exact same thing too! I also give extra credit if they find the Happy Goat later.

APOD (Astronomy Picture of the Day) will pop easter eggs of animals within the scientific article describing the featured photo often enough to lure me into my two favorite pastimes - animals and astronomy. If you're interested in fantastic photos of the cosmos: https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html

Many of the posts and memes on this list are personal anecdotes that anyone can easily relate to. Vulnerability and authenticity are two traits that can help build a positive presence. 

As best-selling author and entrepreneur Lewis Howes pointed out in a LinkedIn article, authenticity is acknowledging and working to improve shortcomings.

Empathy goes a long way in keeping a positive online presence. Seeing disagreeable content is inevitable; how you respond to it matters more. As Howes advises, try to see things from the other person’s perspective. At the very least, give them the benefit of the doubt. 

“A little empathy can turn a heated online exchange into a constructive conversation,” he wrote. 

Now, let’s switch the conversation to you. Do you try to keep a positive online presence and put out more of these types of content? If so, how do you do it? Share your thoughts in the comments!

My husband announced his (voluntary) redundancy to work colleagues by sending an all staff email "master has given Mikey a sock".

Okay but I would be one to end up getting my eyes accidentally poked by the panda. Good wake up tactic though. I’ll buy one!
