She is a wonderful young lady. Garbagemen are some of the needed people that help keep our society running. His smile is warming.
You might cringe as we say "good vibes only", but this group honestly is that. The 1 million blessed members share uplifting content that might remind you what the simple pleasures of life are. We might as well call it kindness in images that hug your heart.

You can probably notice that most of these pics contain animals. Looking at cute animal photos can make your day better. Whether it's a puppy or a kitten, seeing something cute can quickly make you feel happier and more positive. But why does this happen? Well, it might be for a few psychological reasons.

That is what more stupidly rich people should do with at least a portion of their money. If they won't (and you know they won't), tax it out of the greedy MFs.

One reason cute animal photos make us feel better is because they make us kinder. That makes sense, as not everyone is naturally inclined to help others. Studies have also shown this to be true, according to the National Library of Medicine: "When we see puppies, our brains release oxytocin." This makes us feel loving and attached to those animals (and sometimes to other humans too). That's why many folks who work at animal shelters choose to volunteer – they want to help animals!

Looking at cute animal photos is a great way to feel happier. Cute animal pictures also help us deal with emotions and stress. When we see something cute, our brain releases a happiness chemical called dopamine. This makes us feel better overall.
Blessed Band-Aid
To date, I have never run across a bandaid that was that close in colour to my own skin.
me either, they are all a weird pinky orange colour and i'm a different pinky orange shade. I didnt even know they were supposed to match your skin colour. I just thought thats what colour they were,
Load More Replies...My partner had a much darker skin tone than mine (dark chocolate vs pasty white with purple blotches) and bought some bandaids that matched his skin tone. Since he passed I quite like wearing them. Not as a political statement, just as a reminder of how his hand looked like when holding mine. 😍
I wasn't paying attention and picked up a box with mixed skin tones, there are four different shades... I am as pale as it gets but wear them all. I usually buy fun ones (currently I have Batman and Hello Kitty) but they didn't have them in the big size I needed.
Load More Replies...I’m ashamed to say that as a white person, this had never crossed my mind. I’m glad that someone noticed and made a difference.
I had exactly the same response. (And I'm sorry I hit the down arrow--thought that was the "Reply" button . . .
Load More Replies...I always get the nice ones with cartoons on it even as an adult. They made me feel happy.
My favourite is the heart pattern I think it helps the wound to heal ♥️
Load More Replies...When I was a child, Crayola's "peach" color was named "flesh". Now they have boxes of crayons for just different skin tones. It IS getting better, just slowly.
If I'm going to buy Band-Aids I want cool ones with prints and color
Load More Replies...Even the supposed white ones have never blended in for me. I am way to fair skinned for those. Glad the band-aid people finally realized people come in multiple shades and not just that one "white" color.
The smallest things can make the biggest difference for so many people
But invisible bandaids and cartoon ones are still awesome :D
Love them too! Unfortunately the pad that goes on top of the wound is still white on the invisible ones. 😬
Load More Replies...That's awesome but also strange. I usually use the dirty bar rag and duct tape.
My brother did that one time when he couldn't find the bandaids (they were exactly where they should have been but oh well). I came home to a trail of blood down the hallway and over the basin and chunks of duct tape here and there. I ended up having to take it off because I was worried about his circulation, and the cut was so bad he needed steri-strips on it.
Load More Replies...I know it's not the same but my skin is so pale that no band-aid has ever matched it. But I am glad that they are making ones with darker tones for people with darker skin.
I could personally not care less what color my band-aid is, so long as it’s doing it’s job.
I'm so pale that bandages always make me look I have a reverse tan line situation going on.
It's about time. I'm 73. I thought of this when I was a teenager. I'm white.
My skin is white as snow and I never have had a bandaid even close to it. Therefore I use supercool children’s bandaids, such as spaceships, dinosaurs or even Peppa Pig 😁
Confession, I don’t really use skin tone bandaids. Why have a boring color that barely matches my skin tone, when I can have Pokémon, or Bluey, or Star Wars? I’m already hurt, I might as well make myself feel better by having a fun bandaid. Glad this guy found one he likes though.
I never thought it was to match your skin.. i thought it was the normal color of a bandage .I'm a pale white freckled red head and none of the bandages mached me ..they were too dark tan peachy colored. When my children were little I would just but on their bandages of batman star wars barbie dora.
It's the BLUE plasters (bandaids) that we have in the UK that worry me...
Ps... Yes I know that they are food safe plasters... Not for people with BLUE skin...!!
Load More Replies...No offense, but I didn't know the whole "bandage doesn't match my skin tone" thing was such a big deal.
It took a rather long time, finally it's a good thing, thanks !!!
it's a great idea.. happy some one decided it was a practical idea..
I saw boxes of these when I was shopping for band aids. All I can say is it’s about time!
It’s about time. My granddaughters are also thrilled with the Crayola crayons that come in different skin tones
Oh good, well at least they have custom colour bandaids now. Noone ELSE does, even children have to make do with whatever cartoon character they get, but since this black person is clearly more important than everyone else, I'm glad priority was given to him.
I saw some in Walmart and was pleased to see that they were in different shades to match other skin tones. It amazes me that no one thought of this years ago.
Amazing what we do not know about our fellow humans.Thanks for your gift.
Is it just me who's never thought of bandaids as being skin-colored? Or at least not white people skin colored? Because they're not, they're light brown. Bandaid colored.
Band-aids are supposed to be in your 'skin tone' but who's skin tone. Things like this are amazing and so worth it.
Never thought of this before. We should make them ALL blue. Then no one feels left out.
There was a New Yorker cartoon decades ago where a dozen people from all over the world are standing at a pharmacy counter, and behind the counter the cashier is telling his boss, "They all want flesh colored bandaids"
When I was a kid, 60+ years back, all bandaids were a beige-y color that matched no one's skin. I always wondered who they were supposed to match up with. I sorta thought they were supposed match white people, although no one was really that color. I wondered what kids with darker skin thought about wearing these beige things. And then they came out with Stars and Stripes bandaids and I bought those and any fun ones they had. I think it is great that they finally got a color that's right for someone!
And here I go buying band aids in blue and neon's with minions or dinosaurs or birds or cartoon figures.... I wasn't really aware anyone else wasn't as happy about band aids as me...
I've been using and stocking clear ones, but these are ten times better!
We need more of them. I'm always in the band aid aisle and have never seen them.
Cool I like that better than the 'pink' ones for Caucasians. I'm going to switch to yours just because.
How this is not EVERYWHERE I cannot fathom! Band-aids should come in a range of skin tone colors... wake up world!
Is this really something tear worthy? I've used clear bandaids before. All kinds. I've never thought about it?
If that is really that important - why not using color pencils on the bands before?
A very dark friend of mine got splashed with battery acid. As he began to heal, the scar tissue was coming in white. This upset him to near hysteria. So I handed him a black permanent marker.
Why would anyone care? Just get a SpongeBob one and go about your day.

What happens when you see a cute picture? Even though they're not real, they make our brain's pleasure centers light up in a similar way to how pictures of human faces do, thanks to the visual part of our brain.

"It's really easy to take and share photos online nowadays – they're like the pictures of our lives," explains Jo Hemmings, a psychologist. "But because it's so easy, we often forget to look back at the pictures we've taken. This means we miss out on the happiness they can bring."
"Research shows that having actual photos in our home gives us a good feeling. They remind us of the people and things we care about, making our connections stronger!"

We trained our dog to sit using treats, so for the rest of his life if he wanted some of your food he would wait patiently until you noticed him and then very pointedly... sit.
Here we come to the conclusion that looking at wholesome pictures is mentally good for you. But it's not the end - you'll find plenty of cute pics that will hug your heart below.

NOOOO! I was HALFWAY through the pictures, clicked out for a while, then came back and there is only 50 posts instead of the full number! I HATE that BP shortens posts. If you POST 150, KEEP 150 INSTEAD OF CUTTING OUT HALF OF THE PICTURES!
It lets you click on the “originally had 150 images” thing on the bottom to see the rest
Load More Replies...The REASON that I had to take off my glasses and wipe my eyes with my sleeve is because it's dusty in here.
Don’t search up and watch “wish you the best” by Lewis capaldri music video. It will break you
