This widowed Aussie old timer got more than he bargained for, in the best way possible, when he posted an ad to a local website looking for a new 'fishing mate'. 

The internet got a hold of his ad and recirculated it on sites like twitter and imgur, and before long he had been flooded with support and offers to go fishing.

Someone even went and started a gofundme for the old bloke to send him on a fishing trip.

From the description:

"We're just a couple of guys who have heard Rays story and want to see him have a good fishing trip.
At the moment the cost is to cover his return flight from Adelaide to Sydney and back home, accommodation, food expenses and any costs associated to get him fishing. Anything left will go to Ray himself or a charity if he chooses as such.
Should we raise above the required limit we can look at sending Ray around the country to fish with a few different people."

It's always nice to see people rally behind a good cause

We have some important news for anyone who just woke up from a coma: Keanu Reeves is the world's newest wholesome hero, joining the golden ranks of Bob Ross, Steve Irwin, and Stefán Karl Stefánsson. This adorable story from James Dator changes absolutely none of that. Keanu keeps proving himself to be worth our affection and we are so ready to keep giving it to him. 

Sometimes, you just need some goodness in your day. Enjoy this wholesome and feel-good stories! 

Zookeepers have strange and interesting jobs compared to what most of us do all day, so seeing them imitate animals makes us excited but also virulently jealous. Zookeepers at the Minnesota Zoo took photos of themselves as the animals they work with, and it makes us want to look for a job openings at the zoo. Our favorite is the millipede.

It's hard to remember to take care of yourself these days. Maybe if you had an adorable Twitter bot sending you emojis and reminders it would be easier. That's what @jonnysun thought when they created @tinycarebot.
