Rose Richards (PhD) (#BLM always)

#10YearsAgo I frenziedly wrote the draft of a book and then froze and put it aside because I feared the consequences. I've picked it up again this year, because I have accepted that it needs to be written. Not writing it is an injustice and collusion. #writing #chronicillness

I published an #autoethnography article about living with #KidneyDisease, #HealthCareRationing and #Dialysis in #SouthAfrica. I'm currently in #KidneyFailure, after losing my #Transplant of 33 years. I have care, but many don't. The article's #OpenAccess. ajod.org/index.php/ajod…

@ShowmaxOnline Please help. I'm locked out of my account because I forgot both my password and email and I can't find a human to speak to. How do I access my account please?

@antonioguterres For those wondering "Article 99 states that 'the Secretary-General may bring to the attention of the Security Council any matter which in his opinion may threaten the maintenance of international peace and security." This calls for a resolution and vote at the security council.

I've just invoked Art.99 of the UN Charter - for the 1st time in my tenure as Secretary-General. Facing a severe risk of collapse of the humanitarian system in Gaza, I urge the Council to help avert a humanitarian catastrophe & appeal for a humanitarian ceasefire to be declared.

@TheNomadicKing Salty

Do you prefer sweet or salty snacks most of the time?

@Eskom_SA #eskomsalaryshedding over 40 000 employees and nobody can fix the problem, and now they got more money, let's start salary shedding at Eskom and see how quickly they fix the problem and they still want trillions to fix it were is all the money gone. Retweet please

@Eskom_SA @Kgosientsho_R what the hell is happening @eskom do you guys realize the impact this is having on our economy. Businesses are struggling and closing because of the impact of load shedding.I don't usually complain but this is too much. How do you lose 5 generation units in 1 night

@CareersSA1 @Eskom_SA And he'll be earning a fat bonus, while retailers struggle to survive and many people go hungry

@Eskom_SA Eskom must fall…And to add salt to this is that we have a Minister of electricity who’s clearly done nothing

#LoadsheddingUpdate Friday, 24 November 2023: It is with great regret that due to the shortage of generating capacity and emergency reserves, Stage 6 loadshedding will be implemented from 12:00 today until 05:00 on Monday. Eskom will publish a further communication today and continue to closely monitor the power system.

@Llekamania_ @Eskom_SA To be fair, @Eskom_SA has united the country - against them

@Eskom_SA I miss the days of #StrongerTogether

@RyanLaatz14 @Eskom_SA And we'd see some changes happening pretty quickly

Off to America. It's #BIMSWeek o'clock! #BlackInMarineScience 🌊💙🇺🇸🇿🇦

@writinglab_rose ma. my friend and myself are cleaning up public spaces and beautifying them with geometric art through our ngo @shapesorg . we would use more supplies as we are doing this indipendently. do bless us with a retweet as well. thank you

@BokRugbyBlog Or "wyd kant". Either way if a South African was going to insult someone we wouldn't use the c-word. We have our own terms. People don't always speak English.

Bongi tuned “wit kant” - which as we all know was to alert the #Springboks we lost the ruck and the ball was now on England’s side. Why doesn’t the Daily Mail and the rest of the English media learn abit of Afrikaans before attacking a good man’s name - #StrongerTogether #RWC2023
