Arefa’s Angels

April is such an important month in SA

Lmao😭😭

Worth remembering that child labour was only specifically outlawed in South Africa in 1998 through the BCEA. That is how recent some of our democratic gains are. We have come from far!!

There is no part of me that’ll ever be baited into engaging the opinions of a negro in coloured contacts, an inconsistent manufactured accent AND relaxed hair. Come on lmfao.

Lmao😭

Okay but her boobs are not saggy. They are just heavy and sitting pretty

Don’t get me wrong, having small boobs is amazing but I’m really jealous of the girlies who use their boobs as an accessory of an outfit. It’s so pretty 🌸🌸

What is the DA's obsession with tourism? Manufacturing and artisanal skills are regarded as an afterthought, as if the only purpose of this nation is as a playground for foreigners

Hmmm does she also peg him or is just like her getting the anal? Because if it’s just the latter then it is coercive and that’s scary.

recovering from a restrictive eating disorder (and i mean actually recovering not half assing it) will radicalise you so hard on this front. every visibly bony celebrity is currently hanging out in the eighth circle of hell. body and weight culture has gotten so so bad

There’s a certain kind of tall in niggas where I know if you’re past a certain height, the sexual chemistry won’t be intoxicating. The logistics I’ve observed aren’t seamless

I can’t get over how cancerian & venusian this whole look is. so divine!

Americans are generally very weird about age gaps

Grapes taste so good my God

Going for this look while basically every other celeb is ozempicing themselves into a bag of bones is so cvnt

there’s so many places we need to visit bafazi 🥹

This is what thinness supremacy does. It's never enough. With the rise of Ozempic, previously fat or chubby people are getting thinner, causing already thin people to feel the loss of status and exclusivity, so they get even thinner

The people in this photo aren't friendlier than you. Their apartments are just smaller. So small that Parisians basically gave up on living indoors and moved their living rooms onto the sidewalk. And that was the whole plan. In the 1850s, a city planner named Baron Haussmann tore apart medieval Paris and rebuilt it. He widened streets into boulevards, capped every building at five stories, and added one rule that explains this entire photo: the ground floor of every building had to be a café, a bakery, or a shop. The apartments above were intentionally tiny. Some were single rooms carved out of old mansions. No garden. Barely any sunlight. A private balcony was something most Parisians would never have. So the café became home. You ate breakfast there. Held meetings there. Received your mail there. By the late 1700s, Paris already had close to 2,000 of them. In 2002, there were still 1,907. Even now, after years of closures brought that number to about 1,410, the coverage is absurd: a 2020 city study found 94% of Parisians live within a five-minute walk of a bakery. When COVID shut indoor dining in 2020, Paris ripped out parking spaces, turned them into outdoor terraces, and let 9,800 cafés and restaurants keep them permanently. An American sociologist named Ray Oldenburg wrote a book in 1989 called The Great Good Place. He had a name for spots like the Parisian café: "third places." Not your home, not your office, but the casual in-between spots where you actually get to know people. Cafés, pubs, barbershops, the corner store where the owner knows your name. His whole argument was that American suburbs were built with only two zones, your house and your job, connected by a car. No sidewalk café, no place to bump into a neighbor by accident. The U.S. Surgeon General declared loneliness a national health epidemic in 2023. Being alone all the time is as bad for your body as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Half of American adults say they feel lonely. Weekly socializing dropped from 5.5 hours in 2003 to just 4 hours in 2023, and it never bounced back after COVID. Americans between 15 and 29 now spend 45% more time alone than they did in 2010. The scene in this tweet looks like a personality trait. It is a 170-year-old engineering project that works exactly as designed.

South Africa's history curriculum is set to undergo an overhaul. The changes aim to make the subject more African-centred in classrooms. The proposed curriculum, which would be compulsory, includes teaching South African history from before 1652. brnw.ch/21x1rLe
