Perks of Being Married to me:
- probably the most rational person you will ever know
- good cook and will ensure that you never go hungry
- will talk to every single cat she ever meets ever regardless of when or where
- very strong opinions on theories of time travel
Some of y’all forget the reason we have food safety regulations is because companies used to do things like adding chalk to spoiled milk so it looked normal.
Regulations don’t exist because governments enjoy them. They exist because pure unadulterated capitalism would kill us.
Having worked for someone senior enough - these people don’t run their own lives. They don’t cook. They don’t clean. Don’t do groceries. Don’t do the garden. Don’t pick up kids. Don’t fetch their own medicine or dry cleaning or correspondence. 60 hrs is doable. FOR THEM.
Let me explain Joburg traffic to anyone that doesn’t live in Joburg:
Work is 15mins away and I need to get there by 8:30am.
If I leave the house at 7:45am, I get there at 8:45am.
If leave at 7am, I get there at 8:40am
If I leave at 6:30am, I get there at 7am.

Hope the guys making this thing are recording a bunch of increasingly ominous audio logs about the process onto individual USB sticks and scattering them around the facility
Ta-Nehisi Coates in Seattle about the Democratic Party in this moment:
“If you can’t stand up against genocide, why should I believe you can stand up for democracy?”
I love how Trump really thinks white South Africans are going to abandon their stolen farms, winelands & beach houses to become refugees in America. What an idiot!
What I do know for sure is that there isn't a single Le Roux, Van der Walt, De Villiers or Joubert who will be leaving their wine estate in Stellenbosch to go be a refugee in the United States of America.
People need to get this into their skulls.
Train drivers are not overpaid, their unions have simply kept their wage in line with inflation over the decades. YOU are unperpaid!
