17 Wholesome Posts I Saw On This Week That Were So Cute They Legitimately Gave Me A More Positive Outlook (At Least Temporarily)
The internet can be a cold, ruthless place... but not always. Luckily, the benevolent Julia (me!) has spent hours slogging through the remains of X (formerly Twitter) to bring you these wholesome tweets, because they brightened my day, so I figured they might brighten yours. Without further ado, enjoy!
1. This cozy evening tradition:
In the evenings I’ve been going for a very cold walk with my toddler in the carrier on my back, both of us bundled up and he tucks his hands between us and says “I keep you warm” and we look at Christmas lights in the neighborhood and stars and airplanes and he tells me which way…

2. This person's life, seemingly that of a side character in a Hallmark movie:

4. This stool has existed through centuries of people's everyday lives:

6. This, for some reason:
today i saw a group of 15 teenage boys hanging out after school in the whole foods cafe and every single one of them was eating their own personal rotisserie chicken

7. This, because the people we meet throughout life affect us in all sorts of small ways:
I fell in love with a boy once. Unrequited. I was so shy. His family owned a cafe and I would go most Saturdays to eat blueberry corncakes and yearn. Friends would accompany me and encourage me to talk to him. I never did. But every Saturday I make this breakfast for my kids. pic.twitter.com/9680ehPq6y

11. The care and pride Grandpa had in his work:
Just learned my grandfather who worked in a clock factory for 40 years kept a secret diary where he ranked every clock he ever made from 1-10 with brutally honest comments like 'This one's a disgrace. Hands wobble. 2/10' and 'Perfect tick. My masterpiece. 10/10'

14. This timeless relationship dynamic:

15. This person's son, who is so into history that he used his history-nerd prize money to buy himself a Loeb:
My son won the Senior Latin Prose competition, organized by the Faculty of Classics at the University of Cambridge last week. He used the gift card he received as a prize to purchase his first Loeb Classical Library book: Euripides, Cyclops. Alcestis. Medea. So proud of him. pic.twitter.com/AmDHkA3xOt
