• Happy Easter! Here's what we have going on at The Bell Tree:

Place your random thoughts.

I ordered Nintendo Switch Sports, and I am hoping it arrives tomorrow. Also, some presents for my mom (expensive ceramic tableware) will arrive tomorrow.
 
Can't wait for my DVDs, can't believe my eyes and brain I found a place that sold them!

I feel like Charlie Day is even stranger. All I can think of is his performance in Always Sunny in Philly. 'I hope the Princess makes lotsa milk steak!'

I feel like they looked at this scene and said "hey look it's Luigi!"

Its amazing how things in the world don't ever improve.

I mean things definitely do improve. But it's probably harder to see when you lump all of the negativity into it as well.

The world is not perfect, but it's a hell of a lot better than it was 100 years ago and so forth. Just in the early 1900s you could be out of luck with a simple illness that didn't have a cure yet (which we do now have) Infant mortality was so high because children at that age could not fight off the infections and illnesses. I remember during a school field trip seeing a bunch of old tombstones from the late 1800s and early 1900s of children who were only 1-4 years old. There were just so many. We've come a long way, but yes we can still do better.

I don't want to debate this since I know this is one of those "sensitive topics" but its just that everytime I watch the news there is always negativity. Maybe because the media just likes to focus on that more too often.

I think that may be the case. Negativity tends to sell more often. I heard somewhere that social media sites like Twitter use the algorithm so that trends that they know people will react more harshly to will end up on the trending/front page opposed to something more positive.

It seems to me that drama and negativity is what gets all the clicks and attention.
