“humanity is inherently selfish and bad” bbbrrrghuhjfkg. humanity is seeing a stranger’s grocery bag break open on the sidewalk and harvesting fruits and veggies from the branch-like cracks of the asphalt for them, just because you can. humanity is helping a lost child find their mother on a crowded beach, looking for the ladybug-patterned parasol with their hummingbird-small hand in yours. it’s an elder’s fingers wrapped around your arm as you help them up the stairs because the elevator is broken, and feeling like you’re doing exactly what you’re supposed to be doing, like this is what you would’ve been doing had you been alive centuries or even millennia ago. there will always be a heavily pregnant woman who will smile at your when you give up your seat, a nice blind man in the fruit aisle who will ask you to please pick the riper plantain for him, a tired cashier whose face will light up when you compliment their tattoo sleeve. humanity is connection
the good place writers really just said we will write a show so good so fresh so original so funny so clever so compassionate so full of new n interesting plot points n characters and we will develop the characters so well and the plot will be well written with meaningful n clever plot twists and we will have four seasons of it and end it like we always planned instead of milking the show’s popularity and tbh fuck other writers I RESPECT YOU!

Garden of Earthly Delights (details) by Hieronymus Bosch, 1490-1510.
