I heard about the story on Twitter. The high-level details shocked me into insomnia early on Monday morning. Mind you, I saw no pictures or videos of the incident. Your account has sent me back into disturbia. So, we must now accept that SA women are justified prey to the predators that is SA men?

A man slit his ex girlfriends throat and killed her. He then posted a picture of her lifeless body on facebook. He posted a video justifying why he killed her then he hung himself. She was 25

Gwen it was terrifying and it didn’t even last more than 15 minutes but felt longer

We need to take climate change seriously 🥹😭 I live in Randfontein, and on Wednesday, a terrible storm hit. Some are calling it a tornado, others aren’t. Honestly, I don’t know what it was, but I experienced it, and I’ve never been so terrified in my life.

The state of South African politics is devastating. What I do know is that we need to get more involved as citizens if we really want things to change. Apathy doesn’t help, these things affect us daily

It’s so nice to be at the stage of a lifetime of a platform when everyone mostly agrees the people running it are working hard and doing a good job. Let’s enjoy that while we can!

There’s a guy on TikTok that seems to really have it in for TakeALot and how they consistently practice this awful exercise on its customers.

Here is another gentle reminder: Black Friday isn’t always the great deal it’s made out to be. Many discounts are inflated, with prices marked up beforehand to create the illusion of savings. #SouthAfrica

A gentle reminder: If you want that picture with Santa/father Xmas at the mall, go ahead and sit on his lap yourself! Forcing a child who is clearly uncomfortable or crying to sit on a stranger’s lap is unnecessary and can be distressing for them.

Took the kids to the Rosebank market today. I love meat, you can separate me and meat. This was delicious

In Zimbabwe , the government has come up with a regulation that will force WhatsApp group admins to apply for a license. The cost is between $50 and $2500. They claim it’s to protect people’s data and disinformation. But actually it’s an attack on free speech and a ploy to control narratives 😤
