Hello please tap in

I was at a ski resort last week and was going to head down a gondola, saw a mom and young daughter falling on the escalator (ski boots suck to walk in) and I quickly hit the emergency stop and they were able to get up once the escalator was stopped. No injuries and they were able to go down fine after collecting themselves. Always look for the Exits and E-Stops 👀

Quit my job as a senior engineer so I could drive my son to a school 75 minutes away in another state after he started having mental health issues. Drove him to school or picked him up pretty much every school day for nine years. Don’t regret it. That’s what you do for your kids. Also, my friend’s mother is dying of cancer in a town that’s a 10 hour drive from us. So my friend’s mother is spending a lot of time on the road to visit and stay with her mom. When she’s gone, I drive her son to drum practice. It’s a 75 minute round trip for me, but so what. You need to look out for your people…

Also there are new laws here in Oz now like the US that your not allowed to bag out Israel or the government on social media or you get charged and jailed, I stuck it to our weak ass government two days ago calling them all sorts of nice names lol

There a homeless man that I've recently discovered has a disability to, he sleeps across from my building under a bridge,there's a ritzy hotel and accommodation next door to where he sleeps, the people especially who live there drive past him everyday leaving their building no one stops or looks at him I was fucking discusted when I saw this so I go see him a few times a week now take him food drinks and tobacco he really appreciates it.

We've been carrying for a friend and former co-worker who lost his second leg to diabetes in September (he lost the first 20+ years ago) while his house is altered to accommodate a wheelchair. Everything from driving him to appointments to. Changing poopy diapers. No regrets.

I carpool my brother to his robotic team competition and be supportive of him doing them. It’s 2 hour drive. 4 hour round trip. I’m trying to do something that our guardian never did for me. So he doesn’t have to go through the same thing

Late to the party, but, last night I taught my brother in law that adults solve their problems with their words and logic, where little kids think it’s ok to use their fists. Corollary to that, used rationale that a core differentiator of Homo Sapiens from other bi- or quadri-pedal species is our ability to control our impulses. Felt very basic to me, but I guess that’s where we’re at with coaching young men these days. :/

Last week I brought a cake (French apple) for my coworkers. It's been a rough month for everyone, so I wanted to help with their spirits!

Well I don't know about the last week... but I think the greatest think I've done has been picking up a little 3 Month old puppy in Mexico out of the streets. I brought him with me to Germany. There was no way I was leaving him. He teaches me about empathy, true and unconditional love every day.

Served as the navigator while my girlfriend drove

Trying to spread awareness of the dangers of our country for marginalized groups across most of my social media platforms, even though I am at risk of speaking out as a neurodivergent BIPOC. Also in touch with several Discord communities and people in my town to see if we can be more organized and effective in surviving our current plight. Also teaching my daughter the reality of what is going on so that she is aware but also has hope for a better future.

My son is experiencing his first breakup in middle school as his partner is moving away. I made space for his feelings and said things like, “oh, yeah, this part sucks. I’m so sorry,” and not the myriad bullshit given to me. And we hugged and talked a lot about them. It’s been a few weeks with ups and downs, but slowly he is becoming his silly self again. I’m so grateful that he trusts me to share, very unlike my own upbringing. On my last day of work at my previous job, a pretty large group of my old employees got together to throw me a zoom party and gave me a card full of thanks for giving them their start, mostly non-white non-men. I count this as the greatest achievement of my career.

Make my lady dinner every night and her lunch for while she’s at work.

Had a frank and in-depth conversation with my mentee on how to watch out for and identify some of the specific sexist shit she's gonna have to deal with as she works her way into the tech industry. Forewarned is forearmed.

Picked up my friend's kid from school and made her dinner because she was stuck at work late.

I don’t speak english now but I learn and when I know，I come with you nude

My wife is not servant. It's still a partnership. We look out for and look after each other. I can't stand the "alpha male" bs. Lots of examples to give, but for today, I just made her coffee. I feel appreciated and I she does too. We're all equal, just in different ways. I'm not a spoiled child letting their mother do everything for them. I'm weaning myself off the toxic sites, but damn it's hard to avoid without totally disengaging, and we cannot do that.

Arranged for my 7yo daughter to meet with a biologist in her lab over the school holidays, as she is super interested in science and ecology and also an advocate of women in STEM (articulated as "girls are better than boys, so girls should be all the scientists")

Cooked dinner for my wife. Picked up a co-worker who was having a bad day due to a male colleague was getting on her case

Instead of finding financing for myself to get a transplant, I have been helping others at the dialysis clinic I go to get funding for their transplants. Since, I have been on kidney dialysis for 12 years, most people wonder why I would help them and not myself.

Doing my best to be there for my friends, especially women, to help with stresses and anxiety of living under this regime that, among many other abhorrent things, is determined to make The Handmaid’s Tale look like a happy Saturday morning cartoon. My 80 year old hippie mom moved in with me 3 years ago and I’m doing everything I can to help her, too. Sliding into fascism isn’t fun, but we need to be there to support each other and help push back in any way we can.

Little longer than a week, but had an informal meeting with the other techs in my clinic and shared salaries, revealing how little they'd been paying some people (primarily women), ended up leading to most of my coworkers leaving for better jobs with better pay and us short staffed, but I'd rather that than watch people get taken advantage of.

Helped a distraught Ukrainian woman who was mugged and her phone, cards, cash etc taken. Calmed her down, and accompanied her to make a police report. Gave her what I could afford to keep her going, and arranged for a woman friend of mine to bring her back home. Asked her instead of paying me back, if she would use it to help someone else out, given the opportunity.

Been supportive and taking frequently with my friends who were laid off. Making sure they were feeling good and helping them find new jobs and preparing them for interviews.

I rescued a mama cat and a couple of kittens from the bushes outside staples center here in LA (it’s called crypto.com arena now but I refuse to recognize that name and think the only acceptable name change would be something with the Kobe Bryant memorial in the name). Anyway the kittens and mama are being fostered by someone who works at the arena. I’ve taken them to the vet for vaccinations and microchips. And I’m planning to get them spayed (all girls) when they’re healthy and big enough.

I helped a dude struggling to get a mattress he purchased onto his pickup at a Costco parking lot.

One of the desk staff in my building is an older woman who recently lost her son. She loves my dog (Leo) so when I take him out when she's working, I stick around the lobby longer so she can give him treats and scratches. He loves the attention. She loves spoiling him. It's a little thing for me, but I think it brightens her shift.

I’ve been with my wife for just about 20 years. Every night I do all the dishes and clean up after dinner. We both wash and fold all the laundry each week. We hosted our tween niece this past weekend while her parents were out of town. My wife has been working like crazy so I took the lead on absorbing the kid’s cute-but-endless conversations about Pokémon and the Wings of Fire books.

I don’t think I did anything different. I just try to be a decent human being to everyone.

I helped my 92-year old neighbour reset his password and renew an insurance policy online, because they’ve moved to virtual-only services and he’s used to renewing in person with a cheque. He gave me a jar of his backyard honey as a thank you 😭🥹🥰

Wife is in a leg cast and I’m taking care of our 20 month old grandson. While his mom works.

I've been off work on worker's comp for more than a month, and I'm tying my best to be the cook in the house for my wife, and to handle more than my share of the kitchen cleaning (this always turns out to be the big housework item)

I took a homeless man to go get some food and a fresh set of clothes and shoes 🙂

I've been cleaning around the house and just taking on extra tasks to lighten the load. There's so much going on outside, it's important to make the home safe and warm feeling.

I'm realizing more and more how men are afraid to be feminists. Even if they managed to overcome the brainwashing inflicted by right-wing influencers, the most they'll say is just "I support feminism." They will avoid outright saying they are feminists. And their support will only go as far as telling their partners and female friends "they are right to be angry." I realized that is not enough. More men need to be okay with saying they are feminists. More men need to join the battle and deny the patriarchal standards that are destroying both their own lives and the lives of every woman around them. So I thought everybody needs to see men who aren't afraid to fight for women's rights. We have to show that it's okay to fight for the rights of every living being, even though we ourselves aren't a part of that group. I wanted to start by showing everyone that there's nothing wrong or performative about identifying as a feminist as a man. On the contrary, it's a very basic requirement if we're claiming to be supportive of this struggle against oppression. Identify as a feminist, spread awareness on the fight against patriarchy, and support anyone and everyone who stands against oppression. Break the chains of being just an observer in the battle <3

I bought my girlfriend apple and honey flavoured teabags because she was just getting over the flu as Rosh Hashanah began and I wanted to make her recovery festive.

I surprised my dad last weekend who lives in a different state and grilled us some nice steaks. I hadn’t seen him in over 2 years so it was really nice

Chocolates and favourite half baked cookie dough ice cream. Made coffees - always! Helped plan future business ideas. Just generally have a lovely time with my wifey type person!

I went and picked up, and then watched both of our kids by myself for the evening, even though it was supposed to be my wife's day to do pickup. I did it so she could go have a belated birthday dinner with her cousins, and because she's a fucking rock star mom who deserved a break to get some time just for herself 🙂

My department head said that a professor was "too emotional" with her request to offer a new course next year. He deemed a first year political science course on gender and violence "too controversial". I'm in my early 30s and starting my third year as an assistant prof, but being a dude offered me a more valuable voice than her 10y+ of experience at the university. A few Y chromosomes speaking up was enough for him to—in his own words—"give in".

I have no lady and no kids. I assume that's how I fight the patriarchy: (i) zero likelihood of inserting my patriarchal appendage into a lady's body, and (ii) null probability of raising a bad boy. On a more serious response, I just try to be a decent person and be kind to anybody no matter whether other people ruined my day earlier. I know that's the bare minimum, but I guess an autistic childless single man has no other way to be "less shitty".

I've been taking care of my mom's dogs while she's been in the hospital. She ruptured her colon at the beginning of the month, and is only now well enough for the next step in her journey: long term care.

I helped get my neighbor’s friend back into her wheelchair. She’s had a stroke and was kicked off Medicaid and thus out of her nursing home. They were going to take her to a homeless shelter in Baltimore but my neighbor who’s known her for like 60 years took her in until they figure something out. It’s more than she can handle, quite frankly, but I told her to call anytime she needs help.

I’m a member of a Reddit community dedicated to reporting and banning misogynistic, harmful, and CSAM pages users and subreddits. I spend just a few minutes every day on there clicking that report button. It may not be a big contribution, but together our group has been able to take down a few hundred of the most disgusting and often illegal pages on Reddit.

Everyday I share knowledge of some sort. Mental health worldwide is in the dumpster and people don’t step out of their echo chambers for clarity.

I'm letting the nanny stay at my home, rent free, until she finds a place for her and her son. She just left her religiously fanatic MAGA husband.

Helping a friend of mine learn about firearms tomorrow so she can defend against someone who violated a CPO and tried to get her daughter. Stood up for my lgtbq rugby team last night when some locals tried to claim the field we have a permit for, without losing my temper and slapping some white trash. Offered financial assistance to a friend of mine who is struggling with workers comp, and offered help last night when one of her cats was sick.

My partner recently broke their ankle at a roller derby tournament last month. Since we're long distance it has been hard but every break I've got from work I've been travelling to them, helping take care of things around the apartment, cooking for them, and taking them to appointments. When they have an appointment in my city, I've done everything I can to make them breakfast before I go to work, get them comfortable, and entertaine them. I just got off work and I'm going to make them a tonne of homemade tomato soup with garden fresh tomatoes since they're in town for an appointment and I want to give them something to go home with!

I talked my sister through deciding whether to euthanize her dog. She recently divorced her husband and both her daughters left for school so the dog was the last of her family left at home. Rough day but she took a couple days off work to spend with Roxy and will put her down next week before the tumors on her lungs become too painful.

It’s my bedtime so I’m pausing to go to sleep, but you bet your ass I’m reading every single one of these comments in the morning. This is helping so much already ❤️❤️❤️🫂🫂 love you guys

My neighborhood is consistently raided by ICE. I’m a designer by trade. Made some easy to read know your rights cards in English and Spanish for my neighbors and passed them out or placed them in their mailboxes. They want us ignorant, we fight back.

I’m a lawyer and helped my ex-SIL complete her disability paperwork after getting a devastating stage IV cancer diagnosis.

I’m baking my lady an apple pie right now! I usually handle dinner, and she’ll bake from time to time, but I wanted to do something special, and I’ve never made pie crust before, so I thought I’d give it a try for her since she’s been working her ass off to launch her business.

I buy flowers every 2 weeks for my partner. I also make her coffee every morning before I leave for work.

Im a novelist, but on the side I work at a highschool as a para educator. Very soul sucking and constantly leaving me on the verge of burnout, but in my spare moments, I hang out in the library and help our librarian and freely give advice to kids interested in writing. Last year, I met a young trans man, senior, who started college yesterday. I read his poems and stuff and then noticed him with his wrestling team mates in the gym after school when I was lifting. Helped him with his squat, told him he was a renaissance man cause he’s got the whole Greco-Roman wrestling thing going on plus a high level of intelligence. I said “bro, are you submitting your poetry anywhere?” And he gave the responses you’d expect of a writer and a burgeoning man in every sense of the word who also happened to be socialized as a girl growing up, and still by his parents to a degree. I said “part of being a man is going after achievements you’re not qualified for. Look at all the dumb fucks in office.” So, he submitted his writing. Got scholarship money for it. Did well in some slam poetry competitions. I got him a fountain pen and a leather bound notebook for a graduation gift. He said I was his mentor for some reason. And yesterday I chatted with him about school and asked him if he’s finding community, which he is. And even though that librarian I referred to is gone, the new one is great, and I still help her out everyday.

Hedonism is resistance, i staff a kink convention on setup/breakdown crew that was last weekend. Supporting education and breaking patriarchal norms is resistance, I introduced 2 people to your content within the past week. Supporting small businesses is resistance, I bought my intoxicant of choice from a small business owned by a local black woman in the area instead of the chain a few blocks away which is generally cheaper.

Every morning I tell my internet workout something to motivate and inspire them to get them through the day. And I tell my family I love them everyday and I will be there for them no matter what.

A baker I know had a medical emergency for her cat and had a raffle fundraiser for free cookies for a year. I bought $100 of tickets even though she lives in another city and I couldn't reasonably pick up cookies from her. I wasn't the only one - she closed the raffle early because she raised twice her goal.

I had a friend call me last weekend around 5 am. She had been drinking all night and when I answered the phone she just kept repeating “please help me”. I was beyond worried that she might be suicidal and had done something that she might not come back from. After about 15 minutes of reassurance she was able to take some deep breaths and started talking to me about why was on her mind that has her so distraught. We spent a total of about 2 hours on the phone. She’s ok now she just had a really shitty night.

I let a friend stay at my place to get away from her folks who were driving her up the wall.

Been doing everything in my power to take care of my 26 year old son that was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Had it removed 3 days later. It's been a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Just thankful we live so close to the best doctors. Will always watch out for my kids.

Made coffee for a lady friend recently, and also made a donation to a fundraiser for families fleeing Gaza City

My younger brother is 18 and I’ve been terrified of him falling into the alt right pipeline. Our parents are very religious and we were all raised conservative. I haven’t wanted to outright confront and ask him about things but I’ve been slowly talking to him about politics etc and I’ve been extremely happy to see his reactions to things. I’ve also been encouraging my wife’s younger male cousins to be feminists and care about those around them.

My 3 year old niece LOVES me, and every time I see her, she acts like my sister doesn't exist anymore. She just wants to play for hours on end and it's exhausting, but I do it with a smile! Also, I got myself ice cream after a crappy day of work a few weeks ago. I could've been selfish and not gotten my daughter anything, but I got her a cup and put it in the freezer for when she came home from work.

Brought my gf breakfast in bed this week, I constantly cook for her, I make sure she knows she’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever met every day. Recently I’ve started showering at night so I can have a lil extra snuggle time with her in the mornings. I love her. I’m gonna marry her.

This weekend I went grocery shopping to get normal meal prep stuff. I’m a single guy and only need to cook for myself and I go shopping on the weekends so I’m not in a rush. I finished putting my groceries in the car and was moving the cart to the cart area(something I always do. And if I see a cart that can be moved there too I do it) when I saw a disabled woman putting groceries awkwardly in her car. I immediately went and asked if she needed help and she said no, so I asked if she was sure and she said yes. I really reluctantly said ok and went back to my car. But I waited to leave until she finished and looked like she didn’t have any problems. Coming from someone who had a disabled mom growing up, who has sadly passed away in the last year, I really try to go out of my way to help when I think someone needs it.

A friend got a really big medical bill from an ambulance that save her son, send her a transfer immediately without accepting a no for an answer. This should not happened. I hate medical bills.

Tried to understand how a teenage girl felt in that time and gave my daughter a girl day from her easier high school day. Trying not to be a shitty dad who doesn't understand girls things.

I literally just had a conversation with a friend of mine (we’re late 30s men) about how he felt when getting hit on by gay guys, and how relentless they can be even though he is straight. And I said “so now you can empathize with women, right?” And there was a very long silence on the other end of the call, until he finally said “… that’s a good point.” So hopefully I helped change a mind today 🤞

Being a driver to my elderly folks, and trying to spend as much time with them. Love making my mom laugh

Bought my 16 yr old sister flowers to show her an example of how a proper bf should behave especially since I’m her older brother.

My ex came to pick some stuff that I was getting rid of. That same day, our car broke down, and we *really* needed to go a few towns over to get our papers apostilled. Despite already being on the highway, he came back when I called and asked him to drive us there. He didn't complain or ask any questions. He was just like "give me a minute while I find an exit, I should be there in less than 30". We kept him the whole day - driving us there for 2 and a half hours, plus 2 and a half hours more on the ride back, and another 2 and a half hours for his ride back home. It still means the world to me that he did it without a second thought

My wife's best friend had to move back to Spain and had spent last week with us. I got my wife a train ticket to go be with her the last 48 hours as well, then made up a work trip down to the same area to pick her up.

Been helping a friend leave a manipulative and toxic boyfriend for months and this week she finally took the courage to jump, helped move her in during his workday to a new apartment

I stretched my wife’s legs last night because she was feeling sore after working out and then working all day

My younger sister is going through a tough stretch at college and so I recorded a voice memo and sent it to her reminding her how much I love her and how much she inspires me with her strength and how I know she can do hard things.

Um. My cousins wife is having their first kid and I did research with her and cousins on baby stuff that they might want or need because they weren’t sure what was good or bad

Not a big thing, but just making sure my kid has a sounding board for all the things that are driving them crazy. I don't like not having answers for everything, but I'm glad they're not bottling things up.

Every morning I make coffee for my lady and on the weekends I make her breakfast. I am the one that mostly cooks the dinners so there that also

helped a friend with gas money so they could get to work and then get their kids

She was feeling in a funk, bought flowers and picked up Starbucks for her
