With 28 Days to go, it seems like the South African National Hockey Team are having a hard time heading to the 2026 FIH World Cup.

They're trying to raise R2M between roughly 60 people.
That's R33 333 a head.

Considered in perspective that we have degenerates in government spending R436,619 a head for showboating at FIFA, some very serious moral questions arise.

You can't fund a national hockey player at R33K a head, but you can take some random podcaster on a trip at R440K a head.

Cool story, bro.

[Jordan Griffiths @JordiGriff]

R31 mil to spend on World Cup travel, tickets, suites, random exhibitions and some legacy soccer game.

-Olympic and paralympic team - always chronically under funded.
-SA Women's hockey team - crowd funding for the Olympics.
-SA Men's hockey team - self funded
-SA women's football team Banyana Banyana - continued payment issues
-National Netball team - heavily dependent on sponsors

But yeah, a good few tens of millions to spend on "exhibitions and stands".

I searched a Gaza war crimes archive for my family.

I quickly realized I wasn’t using it the way most people would. I wasn’t browsing it as an activist, researcher or journalist.

I was looking for my family.

My heart sank as I filtered the archive by the dates we lost them and searched for someone I loved.

I found footage I hadn’t seen before of the bombing of the Church of St. Porphyrius, where my cousin Soliman was killed.

I searched for the day my great aunt Elham was murdered, and the day Nahida and Samar Anton were killed by Israeli snipers at the Holy Family Catholic Church.

Eyewitnesses told us Elham was crushed by an Israeli tank. I have graphic photographs of her body that were sent to me by church workers in Gaza, but I found no footage of what happened.

It made me wonder how many people died without leaving behind any visual record.

The realization stayed with me.

Here was a digital graveyard where pieces of my own family history are preserved for journalists, historians, truth seekers and, undoubtedly, those seeking to exploit or consume human suffering.

I know I won’t be the only person to experience this. Other Palestinians searching for loved ones almost certainly will too. But it struck me that this is a form of grief that could scarcely have existed before our time.

It’s a form of grief I never imagined could exist.

A Cape wine farmer supplying his labourers with their daily 'tots', c 1952. The 'tot' system was an exploitative practice in South African, predominantly on the Cape wine farms—where labourers were partially paid in alcohol instead of cash wages. Originating during the colonial era, the system institutionalized widespread alcoholism and dependency, severely affecting the health and social structures of farmworker communities.

I’m sorry… the city of Cape Town approved a data center?!? As in the thing that is a massive water and electricity consumer… inside the same country that has a water crisis and is always at risk of load shedding… how detrimentally stupid is this city man, what the hell🫩
