"Earn R100k online!" "10x your money in 1 month!" Scammers don’t win because they’re smarter than you. They win because they understand you. They know how to create urgency. Curiosity. Excitement. Trust. By the time you realise it…it’s too late. Introducing: Slam the Scam. 🧵

Ladies and Gents. Still need help pls. Do you have any mates who is a lookalike to one of the current Bokke players? A Bokkelganger? Will pay R2000 referral bounty if your guy is picked! Pls RT for reach. Dankie!

@DeanOelsch My Sealand one is gooood

One day when I’m done with agency life I am going to design the perfect travel backpack. I’m on my 5th and they’re all rubbish. As if they’re designed by people who don’t have backs.

Watch this session titled ‘Maximal Markets: DPI, Enterprise and Innovation’ on how Digital Public Infrastructure (#DPI) can reduce market dominance, support #innovation, and protect the #GlobalSouth from over-reliance. @SBharatam, @DayaRajiv, @mikestopforth Link: youtube.com/watch?v=RBca1i…

If you think the Indian broadcast is biased, don’t be ridiculous.

@Laurenterras @ExclusiveBooks Thank you so much for the support Lauren!

Embarrassed to admit I didn’t know about this book. Fixing that immediately — straight to @ExclusiveBooks after #PulseConference2026. @mikestopforth you are an absolute showman. Insightful, engaging, and impossible to ignore #pulseconference26

Before AI coding agents, I'd constantly have 2 or 3 side-projects that I would struggle to finish AI completely changed the game Now I have 15-20 unfinished side-projects

@DStvCare my DStv stream app on my smart TV's image is stuck on the blue circle. I can hear audio but no picture. Please advise.

The unofficial national anthem. Go Bokke! New work for @PicknPay.

@Uber_RSA I've been asked to verify all payment methods listed on the app this morning, have done so, but can't book a car. I get a can't process your request error. Now stranded.

Nothing bonds South Africans quite like the shared trauma of a Home Affairs queue.

Tonight I’m at @SuitsSneakers HQ (The Tryst Kramerville) for "52 Big Questions for Business Leaders" Book Launch with @mikestopforth! Looking forward to catching up with *all* the usual suspects. 🙌

The Funniest Golf Story of My Life - a thread to brighten up your Tuesday. Technically, it’s a golf story. But really, it’s a story about chaos disguised as golf. A few years back we arrived early, painfully early, like 6:45 early, to play Serengeti Golf Course near OR Tambo.

Modern parenting: my dog gets free-range, grain-free, air-dried, veterinary-approved, probiotic-infused amino-balanced R400/mg meals. My kid gets chicken nuggets and vibes.
