I’ll be the first to admit that 2018 sure felt like a flaming pile of garbage. In between our nation’s vast socio-political divide, the state of the environment, and the passing of many beloved public figures, it became easy to forget that good people, good actions, good things—abound in this world.

But also, these 45 things happened:
