You’re fully entitled to your child-free life, but not a child-free world experience. Children exist, they matter, and they are allowed to take up space.
South African Students, Lethabo Molobi and Johannes Jacobus Deysel have won awards at the 2024 Taiwan International Science Fair.
The Aspiring Scientists received the awards for their research projects.
All these human trafficking stories, I want to emphasise again: if you see a roadblock during this festive season do not announce it to warn your drinking buddies. Roadblocks are important tools for preventing or spotting human trafficking.
Anyway I hope my Coloured cousins see how hard others fight for our history and identity to be recognised, meanwhile back at home we want colourblindness when it’s convenient & we participate it anti-BBBEE rallies that seek to erase the racial historical context of SA’s economy.
South Africa institutes proceedings against the State of Israel before the International Court of Justice under the Genocide Convention and requests provisional measures
“I came here for a climate demonstration not a political view” is such a perfect demonstration of liberal, non-intersectional approach to ‘environmental justice’.
Y’all can say what you want about the Spur, but it’s truly a child-centred restaurant. They even have a breastfeeding policy! Kids get tagged when they come in, for their safety. They are designed so parents can see the play area. They have colouring in and face painting too!
RG Snyman’s tattoo artist gave 20 year old Canan Moodie a tattoo. I’m telling you Canan’s mom is messaging him now “and if RG says you must just off a bridge?!l”

Disappointing numbers for Beyoncé doccie
The Queen’s numbers are not moving in South Africa.
As of Monday (December 11th 2023), ‘Renaissance: A Film By Beyoncé’ has only made around R2,4-million — that put the film in the Top 20 nationally, which it has since dropped
There’s about to be a storm of whataboutery now that South Africa has invoked the Genocide Convention against Israel. Protect your peace, you don’t have to justify or explain or defend anything against Zionists hell bent on engaging disingenuously.
I told my helper today that she will only be off on Christmas Day and Boxing Day l need her back because for new year’s because we’re going away to celebrate new year with a group of friends and she told me that she has to be off on both holidays
Palestinians gathered today in Nelson Mandela Square, Ramallah, playing the South African anthem as a tribute to South Africa for its case against Israel at the ICJ.

Coloured people mustn’t involve themselves in this narrative. Not a single JSE listed company is owned by a Coloured person, CP represent only 4.9% of top management in SA, and 3.9% of SMME ownership-so I don’t know where this hiring power lies. Anti-Blackness is self-defeating.
The school feeding scheme was never meant for big business. It was meant to employ local community members and even parents who lived around the school.
My thing is the Patriotic Alliance is getting votes where there aren’t even any Coloured people?!
South Africans have really deluded themselves into thinking our problems start and begin with foreign nationals.
My psychiatrist charging 5K for a consult is wild, but is she worth it? Definitely. I think she charges too little for the change she’s made to my life.
Y’all are white washing Nomvula Mokonyane and I don’t like it. This is a woman who caused major damage at Dept of Water and Sanitaton and Dept of Environmental Affairs- including the Guyani water project! And was recommended be prosecuted for bribery and corruption at the SCC!
Convicted con artist Anna Delvey, who inspired Netflix’s 'Inventing Anna,' is set to speak to an MBA class at Harvard University.
Oxford University has also reached out to her for a speaking opportunity.

I just returned from Paris and will definitely get more information tomorrow, we truly cannot have Nigerians compete in our Miss SA competition. I wanna get all facts before I comment but it gives funny vibes already.
Why are you guys feeling sorry for Sihle Zikalala, a flood was happening in his province, people were dying, and he diverted a tanker of clean water to his house!?
Let’s do it for Marikana. For farm workers. For victims of gender-based violence. For the unemployed. For those without running water. For Palestine. For the Cape Flats. For children who die using the toilet at school. For those who have waited too long to see justice happen.🇿🇦
Imagine you were number 160 on the list, so yesterday when they predicted the ANC got 160 you were like thank you Jesus and now today it’s UIF for you.
I hope there is loadshedding all day at Nasrec next weekend. I hope they’re all forced to sit in the darkness of their decisions, literally, politically, and morally.

Lorenzo, this is a very disingenuous tweet. CT has additional capacity because, unlike other provinces, it has the huge 180W hydroelectric plant at Steenbras Dam, built in the 70s! By the Apartheid government.
The fact that Cape Town is on Stage 1 for today while the rest of the country is on Stage 2 is the difference in public and political leadership and public and political excuses.
You think genocidal graffiti against a heritage site (uct) facing the M3 is the same as a community doing a mural, in a residential area, against either their own wall or the wall of the council flats they’ve lived in since apartheid?
“Erase Palestine” graffiti reported at 12h20 and removed at 13h20.
Those calling for graffiti they agree with to be left alone will, I suspect, also celebrate that this one was removed quickly.
In fact, when an enabling rules-based process applies to all equally, and is

My new theory is that John was upset at what Helen did to Mmusi and is playing the long game. He’s actively decampaigning the DA as revenge for his homie. An ally.
Boycotting is working, I don’t often listen to the radio but was surprised yesterday to hear a Cape Union Mart radio ad for specials and encouraging people to come to the stores. We must be resilient, this one is especially hard for me cause I have a voucher & I ❤️ Poetry clothes
