The comments are full of things like “you should’ve had them give back to the community” suggesting college students “already do plenty for themselves” and it just hits home for me how much we as a society can’t tolerate people just enjoying themselves.

"Joy is not scarce. There is no natural limit on it. It is not a zero-sum game. When we’re joyful, we increase the chances of those around us feeling joyful as well." Ingrid Fetell Lee aestheticsofjoy.com/2022/10/29/why…
