Voices Raised in JoyPunk
I didn’t coin the term JoyPunk. I don’t know who did. But I know I’m not the only one carrying it forward.
JoyPunk isn’t a brand or a movement with a founder. It’s a frequency. Something artists, writers, makers, and everyday humans have been in tune with long before anyone gave it a name.
That’s the part that matters most: JoyPunk is communal. It’s cooperative. It is a chorus, not a solo.

@autisticompulsive @3goodthings
Toxic positivity isn't my jam either, especially if you have chronic illness/pain/hadship etc. but what i like about 3goodthings is that especially on hard days it feels like my own act of personal rebellion to give the mean ol' universe middle fingers up and be like "Yeah but that tiny orange was the bomb! and also my socks are fuzzy and some people are good so you lose!" i practice joy as a form of defiance :D is #joypunk a thing?
