The pain you feel when a celebrity you admire might be a total a-hole is acute.
Looking up to someone, believing you are in on the joke (not naming any names), even fancying them (again, no names) and then finding out they could be grossly abusing their power is horrible.
Of course, your own pain is incomparable to those who are the alleged victims. And your pain can be slightly assuaged by the hope that these revelations might lead to palpable change.
But, it's still depressing to see this seemingly never-ending list of idols and icons be revealed as sub-par human beings.
Thankfully, to remind us all that there is some good in the world, people are also coming out with their own allegations of niceness against celebrities.
It is also worth noting that just because someone does something nice, it doesn't mean they aren't capable of bad things.
But, it's still warming to hear some tales of friendliness, especially since it's Monday.
A call-out from one Twitter garnered hundreds of responses that warmed our hearts greatly.
Thankfully, the likes of Mindy Kaling and Kesha are getting good press.
Though they have passed away, both Robin Williams and Carrie Fisher got a call-out for their kindness.
Obviously Tom Hanks was on the thread.
Mara Wilson, star of Matilda is a wealth of knowledge regarding celebrities with favourable disposition, giving Danny DeVito, Salma Hayek and more honorable mentions.
British treasure David Tennant was thankfully on the list.
And many, many more...
Yes, it's slightly depressing how grateful we are for these Tweets. But during this long, dark slog of very bad allegations against the rich and famous, they've at least helped warm our hearts.
