Zevenor Gordon, a sexual predator, has been jailed for 16 months for sexually assaulting 6 schoolgirls and women in London. Paul Powlesland, an environmental lawyer, is facing 2 years in prison for cleaning and removing garbage from the London river without a license. British justice system is broken.

The Laffer curve indicates that we have reached the limit of tax extraction in South Africa. Any further tax increases will result in us closing businesses and shrinking the economy and tax collections further. SARS knows this....do you? We taxpayers have power. Lets use it.

My mom passed away late April. A death certificate and death notice are not sufficient for @MTNza to cancel her month to month contract - they need a doc from the Master's Office - which can take up to three months (or more!). In the meantime, they still bill a dead person.

The best news!🤩

having our first trillionaire before everyone has access to clean water is a failure of the human species

The snake met its match 😂

@RealJamesWoods Welcome to short term thinking

So, @sarstax all you can do is to collect as much as you can AND how the money is used is non of your business??🥺🚮 Ordinary South African 🇿🇦 struggle to put food on the table while you are debiting us almost 50% of our hard earned salaries #TaxRevoltSA

Underrated life advice: Become generous with your assumptions. Assume they were tired, not rude. Overwhelmed, not careless. Preoccupied, not distant. This doesn’t mean tolerate disrespect. It means stop turning every small moment into a personal attack. Grace makes life lighter.

investing is important… but you need money to make money 💰💰 many people are better off paying down expensive debt, building an emergency fund & freeing up some extra cash you can’t invest money you don’t have

I have to say that Clarkson's Farm is one of the finest pieces of television ever created. I started watching it for Jeremy doing stupid Clarksonesque shit, but then it became something deeper and more important to an entire community of Farmers across the UK, and subsequently to us, those who forgot how important farmers are to our country. Clarkson himself, never afraid of being made to look like a knob, opened our eyes and his to the warts and all reality of farming. The show laughs and cries at and with him. Crafted drama could never carry the same pathos as watching a Journalist becoming a farmer.

More looting for the cadres. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤯🤷🏼‍♀️

@wottheberry Oh, he’s cheating already

my sister's fiancé comes from a wealthy family and insisted on a prenup before their wedding next month. he sat her down with his lawyer and basically presented a document that said if they divorce, she gets absolutely nothing.. even if she quits her job to raise their future kids. he told her it was just "protecting his family legacy." she didn't argue. she just handed the paper back and said, "okay, but we need to add a clause that says if you cheat, you owe me $500k for career damages." y'all. this man completely lost his mind. he started screaming that she was "money-hungry," that she didn't trust him, and that marriage shouldn't be a business transaction. funny how men are completely logical and pragmatic when they're trying to strip a woman of her future financial security, but the second you ask them to put a price tag on their own loyalty, it becomes an emotional tragedy. he didn't want to protect his legacy, he just wanted a free pass to behave badly without any consequences.

Honestly, racism is one of those things many Japanese people struggle to understand. If we see a white person, we think, "Oh, they're white." If we see a black person, we think, "Oh, they're black." If there were blue people, we'd probably think, "Oh, they're blue." And that's about as far as it goes. If someone is nice, we think they're nice. If someone is an asshole, we think they're an asshole. If we like them, we like them. If we don't, we don't. We grow up being told not to cause trouble, not to fight, and to get along with the people around us. Maybe that's why judging someone by their race feels so foreign to a lot of Japanese people. We're usually too busy judging people by whether they're good people or not.

My people 🫶

Good morning.

And on that bombshell…

R45.16 billion. Read that number again. Not stolen according to a court. Not recovered. Not returned. Not explained. Written off.

MASSIVE EDUCATION SCANDAL: 22,000 Ghost Teachers + 610,000 Undocumented Pupils Exposed! 😡 The Education Labour Relations Unit has uncovered a shocking mess in our schools: At least 22,000 teacher records that don’t match government payroll data. Over 610,000 undocumented pupils (both South African and foreign nationals). This means huge amounts of taxpayer money are being lost while our classrooms are overcrowded and service delivery collapses. #GhostTeachers #UndocumentedPupils #EducationCrisis #SouthAfricansFirst

Menopause is such a fun little season of life You're exhausted by 2 PM, wide awake at 3 AM, overstimulated by group texts, mysteriously puffier than yesterday, your brain clocks out mid-sentence, and you are one chewing sound away from a felony. I love that for us
