Mind your "yeah, but"s. Don't unnecessarily crush someone with negativity when they're excited about something or trying to be positive.
Someone in your friend group is REALLY excited that a popular artist just release a new song or album? Now's not the time to crush them by telling them how much you think that artist is overrated and that anyone who listens to them just doesn't know any real music. They're not hurting anyone, why make them feel bad or dumb just for being happy and excited?
Your co-worker tries to share something positive they read in the news, such whatever country you live in now has lower rates of alcoholism, or more trees than ever were planted last year in re-forestation efforts? Ask if yourself if it's necessary to "yeah, but" their positive news with a spin on making it negative. Is that helping at all or serving any purpose? In a lot of cases it's not helpful or necessary.
What do you really have to gain from crushing someone's excitement or attempts at being positive? Ask yourself what your real intentions are. Ask yourself if you actually have anything worthwhile to gain outside of crushing someone who was excited or trying to be positive.
And in the future, be more considerate of people who are excited about something harmless, or trying to be positive. You never know what inner pain or turmoil they could have in their personal life that they haven't shared with you, which they're just trying to get through with excitement and positivity. Consider being more supportive of their excitement or attempts at positivity in the future.
An invaluable skill I learned from the book How to Talk So Kids Will Listen And Listen So Kids Will Talk (the single greatest relationship/communication book I've ever read, BTW) is to respond with a "you" statement in situations like this.
Basically, if someone is all fired up about something that you don't care about, don't understand, actively dislike, whatever, you can still be considerate and just make a fairly neutral observation like "you really love _____" or "you must be so excited about _____" instead of dumping on their mood with your own negative opinions.

seeing discourse about “foreign films” is really funny when you’re not american
i saw a foreign film the other day. have you heard of Jurassic Park
the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.
btw it's so fucking stupid you can be anxious physically in your body even after you've decided mentally you don't care. I'm supposed to be in charge here
Persepolis
Rest in peace, Marjane Satrapi
We read Persepolis, and watched the adaptation, in the 10th grade, and it's stayed with me ever since. I'm eternally in awe of Marjane Satrapi's bravery and resilience, and may she rest in peace.
