Person Invites People To Share The Saddest Facts They Know And Boy, Do They Deliver (40 Pics)
As much as we’d like to be cozy, comfortable, and content all the time, that’s really not how the world works. Life is full of sadness—it’s an inseparable part of the human condition and we need to learn to embrace the less-than-savory parts of life alongside the pleasant ones. You can’t have happiness without sadness and each gives the other meaning.
Redditor Graham_craker invited their fellow internet users to share some of the saddest facts that they know in a viral thread. And, we’ve got to say, these hit hard. Really, really hard. For instance, the recording of the Kauaʻi ʻōʻō bird singing its mating call and not getting a response because it was the last of its kind, hit me in the feels so hard, I just want to curl under a warm blanket and eat ice cream all week long.
You might end up feeling blue just like us and Eeyore the Donkey. Remember to upvote the facts that made you appreciate life and how fragile it is even more as you scroll down. Just remember to grab a pack of tissues because you might end up tearing up. (PS—here’s a wholesome post to pick up your mood afterward.)
Of course, constantly living just with negative emotions and nothing else isn’t good for your mental health. Bored Panda spoke about depression, how to recognize it, and how it doesn’t always look like sadness with Emma Morton from the University of British Columbia. You’ll find her insights below, so be sure to read on, dear Pandas.

There's a recording of the last Kaua'i Oo bird singing before it went extinct. It was a mating call sung by a male bird. The song has breaks for the female bird to respond. There's no response because the male Kaua'i Oo is the last of its kind.

Laika, the first dog to be sent out to space, died alone up there. She had no idea what was happening and I still find it extremly cruel that she got sent to space "for science". Poor Laika :/
Morton from the University of British Columbia explained to Bored Panda that depression doesn’t always look like sadness, even though some people assume that it does.
“While teariness and low mood may be a warning sign of depression, people may seem more tired or mentally ‘scattered’ than usual, lose interest in their usual hobbies or activities, become withdrawn, or change their sleep and eating patterns,” the researcher went into detail about how we act when we’re depressed.

Nope. Dodo birds got extinct because rats ate their eggs. Humans did accidentally bring the rats into their habitat, but they didn't actually go out to hunt them to extinction.

We hunted them to near extinction and the rats which we introduced to their islands finished them off. Humans are 100% responsible for their extinction.

Morton warned that those of our friends and family members who are constantly talking about death, expressing hopelessness about the future, or increasingly use alcohol or other substances may be “particularly at risk of suicide.”
However, it’s not always easy to recognize depression, as some people can pretend that everything is all right, even though they’re not doing well at all. According to the professor, perfectionists are especially prone to doing this.

Cats are the most euthanized pets in shelters even over pitbulls.
I worked at an animal shelter when I was a you g lad and every f**king time someone came to adopt a pet it was a dog! I even heard a family say “ we want a dog only cats don’t love you”
I socialized many of their cats and most of them were so sweet, and cuddly and made me just so sad inside everyday watching people adopt dogs and ignore the cats. This was a no kill shelter but still it was so heart wrenching I quit because of that.
Cats do love you back you just have to earn their trust and they show it differently than dogs. All animals show love in their own special way.
Foxxy (The Original) 3 years ago
The biggest issue with cats is they can breed more often than dogs and people just don't want to get their cat desexed. The number of cats needing homes is far greater than dogs needing homes.

“People with perfectionism may invest a lot of energy in keeping up appearances, so this is not always easy for friends and family to detect. If someone you know experiences a lot of pressure or stress in their work, family life, or relationships, it’s important to listen for the signs of toxic perfectionistic thinking, and to show you care and express your concerns,” the researcher said.

On december 5 1942 in Auschwitz-Birkenau, after the round-call of the morning, which was atrocious since you would need to stand still for hours until the count matches, the SS took the entirety of the women camp moved them in front of a ditch within the camp and asked the 6000 present alive women to get naked.
Then, the SS armed with whips, pistols and canes got over the ditch, made two parallels lines to create some sort of corridor. Then they screamed the women prisonners to jump over the ditch and run through the corridor of SS soldiers.
During the run, the SS with the whips and cane struck/whipped/pulled away all the women they deemed "unfit for labor" due to sickness and physicall exhaustion. Out of the 6000 women that day, around 1500 made it to the end of the corridor without being pulled away : They were the lucky ones and the camp commandant made a speech sort of like "You were chosen to live".
The 4500 women pulled away by the SS or who couldn't jump far enough to pass the ditch were pushed into trucks and send to the gas chamber. They apparently screamed like banshees full knowing they were sent to their death.
Very few women survived from 1942 to 1945 in auschwitz, but the detail of this day is present in the few books/testimonies from survivors because of how horrible it was.

One of my neighbors has a nine year old daughter who has a very rare genetic condition. She's not expected to live much beyond her mid - late teens. The girl doesn't know and believes she's a perfectly normal child. It's heartbreaking to hear her saying that she wants to be a hairdresser when she grows up. She ain't never gonna grow up
However, not everyone will be up to sharing what’s going on in their inner world of emotions straight away, so it’s important to be patient and polite but persistent. “People might not open up the first time you ask, so continuing to check in regularly and establishing yourself as a safe person to talk to is important. These can be challenging and stressful conversations to have, so it’s important for loved ones to get support in asking these questions and look after their own mental health.”

There is a remote island in the south Pacific that had a lighthouse built on it in the 1700s. The keeper kept a cat to keep him company. Everyday the cat would bring the keeper a dead bird. The keeper had never seen birds of this type before, so he kept the tiny carcasses to show scientists who'd be on exploration ships. The scientists determined that they were flightless songbirds - the only known species of flightless songbird ever discovered, then and now. One day the cat just stopped bringing the birds to the keeper. One cat caused the extinction of an entire unique species. No one ever saw a living specimen and no one ever heard their song.
Foxxy (The Original) 3 years ago (edited)
And this is just one of the many reasons cats should not be allowed to roam. Cats and foxes are responsible for the extinction of many animal species. Whilst I don't like the idea of culling cats and foxes, it is necessary to protect thousands of vulnerable animals. Especially in Australia where a lot of our animals are small and many without defences.

Life can be heartbreakingly unfair. A friend‘s sister suddenly passed away because of a heart attack last summer at age 40, leaving behind a bright, young, then orphaned son. My friend and his wife immediately took him in, gave him a home, and cared so much for him. They were very careful, loving, and considerate. They found a preschool for him, went to therapy with him and participated in it in order to support him getting through the trauma of losing your only parent. In December my friend passed away because of a heart attack.

And if u don't go uni at all, you may still be more knowledgeable than those around you , wherever that may be. Hard work always pays off. The degree to which is does depends on luck and a whole load of factors but it still leaves you better off than where you were before.

I learned this yesterday. Here in Czechia, during communist dictature in 1950's, pregnant women imprisoned for political reasons had no medical assistance during birth. Their newborns were also not given any medical care nor food. Many of the mothers were unable to produce milk due to starvation and most babies died in one year. Sometimes guards would take newborn from the mother and lock them in two separate cells, forcing the woman to listen to her child cry and die. The worst part is that it took 40 years for democracy to be restored so noone was punished for these crimes.

The 1943 Bengal Famine killed 3 million people. India was under British Colonialism at that time. Most of the food ration that should have gone to those affected, went to the British Army who already had a surplus amount of food. On being asked about it, Churchill has been quoted as blaming the famine on the fact Indians were “breeding like rabbits”, and asking how, if the shortages were so bad, Mahatma Gandhi was still alive. Now, most economists argue that the famine didn't happen due to less rain but because of policies passed by Britain under Churchill.
Christina Uhlir 3 years ago (edited)
As sad as it is, one thing is true: people are breeding like rabbits, even faster, in India and elsewhere, and humans never go extinct like poor animals do. Pope Francis told folks in South America, that they don't need to reproduce like rabbits; again, these are countries where women do not have rights to decide how many children they want to have; abortion is, of course, illegal even in cases of rape and incest.

The saddest fact I know: The 'No Child Left Behind' act started a trend of providing funding to schools based on how well the students perform on standardized testing, in an effort to incentivize education. In reality, poor schools perform poorly, and therefore become poorer schools after funding cuts. Even worse, significantly low-testing individuals in decent schools can be forcibly transferred to another school in the middle of the year so that they don't count on either the sending or receiving school's annual roster for grading/funding purposes. The underperforming individual now has their year interrupted, loses contact with friends from their last school, and typically has to travel further to get to their new school...all of which contributes to them learning even less. The 'no child left behind' act has actually driven schools to deliberately and selectively leave children behind in order to get more funding.

The only animals I've seen that haven't attacked a meal with enthusiasm were sick or overfed. Pets on normal, healthy diets can be enthusiastic about food. Also - "starved for hours"? Most pets wait almost an entire day between mealtimes (breakfast & dinner) & for some pets it's better to feed them once a day because of their metabolism. Are you implying not feeding a pet for a few hours is "starving" it? Are you implying a pet should be constantly snacking throughout the day, lest they be unfed for a few hours?

The animals in pet food commercials are starved for hours prior to taping. To make the product seem 'wonderful' as the animal attacks the meal with enthusiasm.

The only animals I've seen that haven't attacked a meal with enthusiasm were sick or overfed. Pets on normal, healthy diets can be enthusiastic about food. Also - "starved for hours"? Most pets wait almost an entire day between mealtimes (breakfast & dinner) & for some pets it's better to feed them once a day because of their metabolism. Are you implying not feeding a pet for a few hours is "starving" it? Are you implying a pet should be constantly snacking throughout the day, lest they be unfed for a few hours?
