All of the items on left are base level emotional feedback/adrenaline/dominance postures -- requiring nothing but "join us" effort to feel the jolt. Items on the right require more effort and ability to slow down and reason for our reward of "joining a community".

BK, you hit upon something that a friend and I discussed about a year ago. We were talking about the TIkTok Ice challenge where people raised money for charity. Then there were all these dangerous challenges, like the tide pods.

We then thought, how about challenges for collecting the most trash off of streets? Be it by pound or cubic feet, probably the latter as the picture of mounds of trash would be more likely to go viral.
