We spend a gross amount of our lives these days staring at screens. And a disturbing percentage of the things that we look at—from news stories to social media posts—are downright terrible.
As cynical as we are, information scientists agree that it’s not healthy to consume a diet that consists of 100% disheartening words and imagery. Sometimes you need to look at something wholesome as an antidote to all the digital poison.
