The nazis were initially a fringe group. Radical ideas only need a few crazy people in power to take root. This talk of “but the majority…” is fails to acknowledge the power a few people with conviction can quickly gain if they go unchallenged and ignored on the basis that they are “just a fringe group”.

After 18 hours of fasting it’s like my hunger completely mellows out. Just in a state of focus and lightness now. Might just keep going.

The project is in full swing. I’ve got all the slides ready, wrapped up all the illustrations, 3D/2D, animations, design, logo, and brand identity. Even put together a quick promo video! Now I just need to catch my breath and put the case study together.

@facebook @instagram @Meta Just tried creating a new account for a new project on both Facebook and Instagram. Both were instantly disabled before I can even use the account. I followed video verification steps and did everything required. And now it seems there is no way of fixing this error. Seems impossible to get hold of anyone. This is such a bizarre issue - banning real people who are trying to create real account for real work. - Edit, and now im being spammed with replies. the irony...

@SimonPGrindrod South Africa is performative society. It pretends to be functional purely for the sake of appearances. There is no substance in the leadership. It is all a show.

@PresidencyZA @CyrilRamaphosa Communists are experts at obfuscation. Make the simple complex until eventually people think accomplishing simple things is impossible. This is how you demoralise people and make them passive.

I see a lot of negative feedback about Apple’s new UI updates. But you are missing the point. It’s not about glass effects or making every UI element transparent / shiny. It’s about liquidity, depth, and movement. UI that feels alive. We are entering a new era of interface design. What was once static, flat, and fixed is becoming dynamic, adaptive, dimensional. Flat design is over. And flat screens will be too. Sooner than you think. I think Apple’s new UI system is less about a visual update. It’s the first real step toward multimodal interfaces. Where components aren’t bound to a rigid screen but float, shift, and respond. They appear where you need them, and disappear where you don’t. It’s about removing unnecessary clutter and making human-computer interaction feel… well, more human. Just because we’ve spent the last decade staring at opaque UI components doesn’t mean it’s the optimal way to interact with computers. Sure, it’s not perfect, but it’s the first real step into a new era of UI. The future is screenless. And dynamic components are the new screens.

@DartsJey @paulg No. You were woke 200+ years ago if you were a Jacobin in the French Revolution executing people during the Reign of Terror.

@paulg You were woke 200 years ago when you spoke out against slavery, you were woke when you said women should have the right to vote, you were woke if you thought blacks should be allowed to go to the same schools as whites, in retrospect history will not be kind to MAGA.

Wokeness will seem such a joke in retrospect that many people won't believe it was ever a serious problem. Even many of the participants will forget. But it really was a big problem.

The shade being thrown at liquid glass before anyone has even tried it is misguided. @Apple is a great company. They have exceptional design talent. I'm sure they took things like contrast into consideration...

@LibertarianZA Evidence doesn't mean anything to communists. I don't mean that facetiously. They genuinely appear to be immune to the effect of being proven wrong. Quite fascinating actually.

Imagine having an innovative, hardworking tax base to shamelessly plunder and steal from for decades under the guise of transformation. It's one thing to be corrupt, but to be corrupt and steal opportunities from the very people you claim to have liberated is a whole other level of depraved. These guys couldn't care less about the masses. It's all just a game.
