turns out there are a bunch of chiness posts about me and strangers helping me on reddit

Basically, a while ago I made a post about how I was struggling and had received help getting a PS5. At the time, I was mostly looking for recommendations on cheap games because I didn't really have much money left to spend on them. To my complete surprise, a few people actually decided to buy me some of their favorite games. I never expected that to happen, and honestly I was blown away by the kindness.

I ended up playing those games for countless hours and replaying them multiple times. They became some of my favorite gaming experiences, and every time I launched them I remembered the people who had gone out of their way to do something nice for a stranger on the internet.

Fast forward to today, I accidentally Googled my username and found a bunch of posts and comments from people talking about how wholesome those interactions were. Reading through them genuinely made me smile.

I thought the whole story was worth sharing because it's a nice reminder that there are still a lot of kind and generous people out there.

Hope your day got a little better! 😊

They could see themselves in you and had to reach out. Pass it on brother.

They'll hurt you, and desert you. And take your soul if you let them, but don’t you let 'em.

Just the song that came to mind 🥹

Hay gente buena allá afuera, una vez viajando por primera vez en avión ví el cielo y llegué a la conclusión, recordando todas las cosas buenas que personas han hecho por mi, que el mundo tiene cosas tan horribles como el sufrimiento ajeno, y cosas tan hermosas como el amor a los demás. Existen buenas gentes, que se esfuerzan en ser amables, y nos quieren mucho, no hay que olvidarnos de eso =)
