So I wanna start a thing. I call it .

In your time zone between the hours of noon and 5 PM, find only the best, funniest, lighthearted articles, videos of sneezing cats or whatever ridiculous thing cheers you up a little.
Gloom scrolling and doom scrolling is all we seem to be able to do lately, and it's not good for our psyche, so time to change up the narrative I say.

Leave the extremely ill-mannered manchild behind, leave politics behind, leave the wars behind, just for a little while, and since it's gotta be noon hours somewhere in the world, if it kicks off, this hash-tag could be something like a glorified happy RSS feed you don't have to look too hard to find.
My hope is, that it brings you some enjoyment.
I can't start with my first article yet because it's 04:37 as I post this.

The other, darker side of my idea is just one character different, and that's .
The darker, less savory side of life.

I've no idea if this is silly or not, you decide.

Guitar Center is Replacing Instruments Lost in L.A. Wildfires With New Initiative

While organized sports, celebrities, and businesses have been rushing to try and make Los Angeles County whole again after the recent spate of wildfires, Guitar Center is playing its part, offering to replace lost musical instruments.
Trying to make a living as a musician is famously challenging, and if one were to lose a $2,000 guitar or a $6,000 piano in the recent blaze, one can only imagine what that might do to them.
Through the Guitar Center Music Foundation, the instrument supplier is inviting working musicians to apply for a special one-time grant to replace instruments and gear destroyed by the fires up to $1,500.

Given the horrible world events of the last few days, it seems to me we need more than ever.

@saltphoenix I would ttoo, I've just opened a search for the former anyway, hoping someone will start to populate it in-time. Excited to see if it takes off at all.

@FreakyFwoof Love the idea for both moonscrolling and noonscrolling!

@FreakyFwoof I love the idea! I might schedule it on my calendar when I don't have anything else at local noon. Will try to find something to contribute in the next 3-1/2 hours.

@FreakyFwoof nope, I think it's a perfectly good idea and excellent for mental wellness.

@FreakyFwoof Welp? It’s half past 11 here. Guess it’s not time yet. :D

@FreakyFwoof Ha! I love this! Let's see what I get with this then!
