@jamescshoff @RyanTAnd Let me assure you, there are a bunch of kids watching Cardi B get song of the year for ‘wet a$$ p***y’ while Dr. Seuss get the Muppet Show get censored. Cancel culture strains a gnat and swallows a camel.

We have more Cases because we have more Testing!

@dailymaverick even if we agree on the sentiment, is calling someone a 'sentient naartjie' in the same sentence as saying 'Joe Biden has a narrow lead ... in Florida... by just 4%' not a great example of polarizing press coverage? I trust you guys to hold the center!

@AbsaSouthAfrica where can I find my IBAN number?

[Roger Curran @rogercurran]

Hey @madebygoogle when are we getting 'OK Google, boil the kettle' ? That would be a game changer.

[Roger Curran @rogercurran]

@TAKEALOT why is there a set of 'Everyday mini tarot cards' on the front page of your Christian Living subcategory?

[Roger Curran @rogercurran]

@google so appreciating the frequent, thoughtful updates to Meet, making lockdown conferencing better and better

[Roger Curran @rogercurran]

@Eskom_SA Has Eishkom received special allowances to reinstate the death penalty? Better hope its not loadshedding when they schedule an execution.

Hi @CapeTown7s, can I bring my <1yr old into the stadium for free, or does she need a ticket on Saturday?

[Eskom Hld SOC Ltd @Eskom_SA]

We regret that due to additional loss of units at our power stations, Stage 2 loadshedding will move to Stage 4 as from 10:00 to 23:00

@Uber Please send me a South Africa contact email to query a charge - driver arrived, refused to take the lift because of the destination (safety issue), now I'm charged a cancellation fee?!

Waiting for the day a conference anchor stands up after the plenary, and admits "mmmhmmm, tbh everyone, I didn't get much out of that"

[Roger Curran @rogercurran]

@Our_DA @helenzille Uhhh, no. When key leaders resign and all flag the same issue, then wisdom is to take notice, and consider carefully the allegations leveled against the DA. Also, this blog has a Trump'ist flippancy to it, it chastizes those who's opinion you suppose to change!?

[Roger Curran @rogercurran]

Reading @CyrilRamaphosa's weekly email, and see "25 years in", actually we're only 17 years in, we lost 8 years to @PresJGZuma. Two steps forward, one step back.

[Roger Curran @rogercurran]

@helenzille Its not just your opponents, its also people who voted for the DA like me. There's not future for a libertarian, lily-white lead political party in South Africa.

[Roger Curran @rogercurran]

@themehybrid is there a way of getting hold of your Admin-Access plugin, now that you've changed course? Even without any sort of support?

[Roger Curran @rogercurran]

@Vodacom111 I was promised 2-3 day turn around on my repair at Century City, but its been 3 days and Vodacom Insurance still hasnt even confirmed the excess, let alone started the work. I have had to chase for feedback, no one calls back. #job13174119

Welcome to my first weekly newsletter. Each week, I will discuss some of the issues that interest and concern South Africans, and talk about the work we are doing in government to tackle these issues. I hope you will find it useful. https://t.co/nAz3bXmNEK
