Literature is humanity’s longest conversation with itself about what it means to be alive. It has been going on for thousands of years. You are not late, you are not unqualified, you are not too much or too little or too broken. Pull up a chair. This conversation was always about you.

@__Zeena I have read it and would not recommend 🫣 I found it underwhelming tbh, with one big WTF moment that I still can’t make head or tail of 😂 I would be curious to hear your thoughts though.

This is so sad! It was a wonderful and valuable establishment for hook worms like me. I even had my engagement photos taken there 🥺 the rate at which we’re losing independent bookstores across the country should have us all concerned.

End of an era...One of Joburg most-loved bookstores, Bookdealers in Melville forced to close & leave their premises of 35 years, due to their landlord wanting them out. They will share some space at the back of The Sourcery coffee shop.

gotta start rewarding my intuition with gratitude, instead of the grief of feeling bad for being right.

Instead of worrying that humanities degrees don’t prepare students for jobs in today’s world [product managers finance consultants startups], we should worry that we’ve created a world with such little value for literature, art, philosophy—anything that expresses the human soul

Happy Worker's Day, and be aware that the DA has opposed the newly gazetted Fair Pay Bill. As it stands, employers can request your payslip and use that during negotiations. This has resulted in a huge pay disparity between white and Black Workers. This bill will stop that.

If you’re frothing at the mouth because I keep pointing out the evils of apartheid and how they can’t be compared with our present reality that’s fine. But don’t tell me your opinion of my lived experience. And NO - we shall NEVER forget.
