We may sometimes feel that we can’t do much as individuals, but humanity is made up of individuals; we can make a difference. As individuals we can influence our own families. Our families can influence our communities and our communities can influence our nations.

Went to get burgers because we were feeling a bit shit.
Lovely Muslim man behind the counter gave us extra chips, and says with a smile they’re doing random acts of kindness to make people feel better.
That’s my NZ.

A slew of reports in the press

But has it been screwing
Its users by doing
Appalling things knowingly? Yes.

If you don't smile at the noise the otter makes when chomping down, you're not human. Or otter.

@BillBailey thanks for a great show last night, top notch! My mind is still boggling about the rod Stewart mix-up - was she seriously confused, heckling, joking...? it troubles me that we may never know...

[Maree Cleghorn @muzlc]

@HelenaWiseman His article was such a load of confused random twaddle

Wonder what number of brown frozen “future banana cake” bananas takes you from merely optimistic to utterly delusional?
