Sometimes..
I page through my prefrontal cortex
like a codex written in fading text
contemplating substance abuse
Sometimes..
I pinch my carotid artery
like my life depended on it
contemplating letting go
Usually..

The irony in Malema saying "you are losing your organisation because you are protecting one individual" will never be lost on me

This, summed up in 2 pics
Hate the game, not the player.
The DA did not make the rules and have also been at the receiving end of dirty coalition politics.
Yet... only the DA is portrayed as the bad guy.
I wonder why.

Accurate observation: Male prefer reading books with a male protagonist.
Inaccurate "not a single boy/man" generalisation.
Bullshit Conclusion: "they've been taught (to) hate anything feminine".
Women generally read a lot more than men. A LOT MORE.
Most men, not all, but me included, when they read prefer to read a book with a male protagonist, only because I like to be able to identify with the character. Not because "I've been taught hate anything feminine".
A young poet (Aaron Barry) pretended to be βa gender-fluid member of the Nigerian diaspora,β (Adele Nwankwo) and wrote intentionally bad poems. He got 47 of them published.
And this "Poem" ππ½ was nominated for a 2025 Best of the Net Award.

A statistic that sounds fake but isn't: Not one single white American man born after 1984 has published a work of literary fiction in The New Yorker.
It's not because they stopped writing. It's because The New Yorker has refused to publish them. The publishing industry has blacked out a generation of male writers & then they wonder why boys don't read.
A binary summary of SAn Politics:
Bloc 1:
Genuinely diverse support base. Wants to root out corruption, focus on service delivery, and build a better future for all SAns.
Labelled: "The Enemy"
Bloc 2:
Priority No. 1: Consolidate the Black vote!
Labelled: "Progressive"
There I thought that parody was dead..
ActionSA will agree to the DA forfeiting their majority in Tshwane, if the DA agree to forfeit their majority in Johannesburg.

Herman Mashaba and Michael Beaumont willing to agree to Nasiphi Moya for Tshwane mayor if DA agrees to dump Zille as its mayoral candidate for Johannesburg. news24.com/politics/coalitioβ¦
International CAPS LOCK day was 22 October..
Outside of that, I recommend sentence case for improved legibility.

If the press don't attend the EFF Pressers, how else are the Bloody Agents supposed to give Malema rope to hang himself?

Now we know the Springboks' weakness.
Give them a 52-0 lead and they immediately stop playing. There for the taking.

This is brilliant.
Agreed: We need economic cooperation, not racial exclusion...
I don't however think "build" means what Marxists want it to mean.
What Build means:
1. Design, budget, plan, and get approval for the build.
2. Dig and lay the foundations.
3. Build the walls brick by brick.
4. Build the rooms one by one.
5. Complete the roof, plumbing, and electrical installations.
6. Painting, landscaping, compliance certs...
7. Furnish, decorate and finally move in.
8. Maintenance.
9. Maintenance.
10. Maintenance.
What Build does not mean:
1. Give me what you built.
2. What's maintenance?
Another uncomfortable truth about South Africa: white people still hold a disproportionate share of the country's wealth and economic power.
You can dislike that reality, but you cannot build an inclusive, prosperous economy by pretending they don't exist. We need economic cooperation, not racial exclusion...
Summary of the GNU:
1. When a DA minister / MP came under mild scrutiny (Gwarube & Malatsi). They lift the GNU veil and blame the DA.
2. When an ANC minister / MP came under serious scrutiny (Mchunu, etc. etc.) They close the GNU veil and blame the DA as members of the GNU.

And to think the ANC is in charge of the IEC...
That takes some doing.

Let me tell you the reality of this country. I'll give you an example from my own estate, which is predominantly white. I would estimate that at least 50% of the white residents here are struggling financially. Some can barely afford their rent.
The other day, a white neighbour actually approached me to borrow money to buy groceries just to get through to month-end.
Drive around and stop at a traffic light on Beyers NaudΓ© Drive. You'll find white people begging on the streets too. They are also dealing with unemployment, debt, rising living costs and financial hardship, just like you and me.
And here's something people don't talk about enough: there are black residents in my estate who are considerably wealthier than some of their white neighbours. Some earn massive salaries, while others run successful businesses.
So where do we get this idea that every white person is rich and every black person is poor? Wealth is not distributed according to skin colour.
Yes, South Africa has serious historical economic inequalities, and wealth remains concentrated in relatively few hands. But that doesn't mean every white person benefits from that wealth or has a trust fund waiting for them.
**Not every white person is related to Johann Rupert!** π
Let's stop treating ordinary people as representatives of wealthy families. Poverty doesn't check your race before moving into your bank account. πΏπ¦

The current decline of ANC can be traced back to the Zuma presidency which slashed job creation by 50% and plunged us into an unemployment crisis.That administration went on to entrench austerity policies whilst destroying state capacity and institutions. Both of them did this.
