Laugh or log off

Spending time online lightheartedly

Hi there,

We all have a choice when it comes to what we consume online. We don’t have to engage with every content, information, and platform available if we choose not to. Just because it’s there doesn't mean it deserves your attention.

Below are five things I thought were worth sharing this week:

1. There is so much negativity online. There is also so much positivity. We can choose to engage with the digital space in a lighthearted way. Or, we can just walk away. Laugh or log off: A mantra for having a good ol’ time online.

2. One of the best laugh-out-loud, feel-good, quirky novels out there: The 100-year-old man who climbed out the window and disappeared by Jonas Jonasson. It’s never too late to start over.

3. Laugh Factory’s YouTube channel. The best stand up comedy clips online. That's it.

4. A quote I want to share this week:

   “A good laugh and a long sleep are the two best cures for anything.”
   — Irish Proverb

   Laugh a little. Sleep a little more.

5. Reddit can be positive (shocker!). Memes can be wholesome. Instead of an article, I’m sharing with you /r/wholesomememes, a Reddit community for those searching for a way to capture the virtue on the Internet.

That’s all for this week!

Thank you for reading, and please share with anyone you think may benefit.
