Who exactly are you meant to raise an appeal with through this page? Where is the submit button? Why am I only allowed to chat to an agent when they can't help with the issue shared? Come on! This is pointless! How is anyone selling on Amazon? @amznsellerhelp

Growing older is such a fascinating experience. I've gone from having mild lactose intolerance to having full-blown allergic reactions to dairy.

you just have to get really good at continuing

Somewhere in your 20s or 30s you’ll get the opportunity to rebuild your life after a negative loop, heal from what broke you, live in your own space, reconnect with your discipline, and learn to love yourself again. It’s very important that you see that journey through.

@ICEKREAM_MAG @KFCSA It has to be the Portuguese prego because the Portugueset's know what they're doing with their sauces. It's just the right amount of heat and delicious flavour. It's the perfect upgrade to a KFC burger

It’s so insane watching RHOB S1 and seeing the episode with the medium. She really told Kyle her and Mauricio would have nothing in common once their kids grow older and now we’re watching that play out.

Fezile Dlamini spent R9.5 million of his own money over eight years building Green Scooters. The IDC allegedly approved R69.9 million for a white-owned Cape Town competitor during the same period Dlamini’s applications were being declined.

A PARTNERSHIP MADE IN HELL: Guys, what demon is presiding over South Africa mara?

Since when is Tropika an alcohol bev?

Clover knows full well this brand is deeply associated with children and family life.

if he brings out the child in you, you're dating a man. if he brings out the mother in you, you're dating a boy. if he brings out the inner man in you, you're dating a loser

I don’t know, I just keep coming back to this idea that children are supposed to outgrow you. That’s the whole point, right? You give them everything you didn’t have & pray they run farther than you ever imagined. You hand them a map & whisper…please, find the roads I was too afraid to walk, let the world be kinder to you than it was to me, step into the future like it’s yours, because it is. And honestly, the idea of being jealous of them feels so backwards. Because a parent who envies their child has forgotten the assignment entirely. If my children surpass me, GOOD, that means the story didn’t end with my mistakes. Envy has absolutely no place in a room where you’re teaching someone how to grow. I want them to take every beautiful thing I ever did & every bad thing I survived and use it as scaffolding. Please, climb so high the sun is forced to learn your name. Please, fly so high you never have to look back to see where I stopped. And if all I ever do in this life is give my children the ground to launch from, then that’s enough for me. More than enough.

You’re 35. Someone raises their voice and suddenly you’re 7 years old again, sitting at the kitchen table, trying to disappear. Your brain is literally reverting to the age you were when the original wound happened.

Neuroscientist Joseph LeDoux at NYU found that your brain has a fear shortcut. Sensory information hits your amygdala (the brain’s alarm system) before it ever reaches the part that thinks logically. The alarm fires in about 12 milliseconds. Rational thought takes over 250. In someone carrying old trauma, the alarm wins every time. Your body reacts before your mind even knows what happened.

Bessel van der Kolk’s team put trauma survivors in brain scanners and watched what happens during a flashback. Three things go wrong at once. The amygdala floods the body with stress hormones, preparing you to fight or run. The prefrontal cortex, the part of your brain that says “calm down, you’re safe, this is 2026,” goes quiet. And Broca’s area, the region that lets you put thoughts into words, shuts off entirely. Van der Kolk compared it to having a stroke. Trauma survivors sitting frozen and silent in emergency rooms aren’t choosing not to speak. The brain region for language has gone offline.

The missing piece is the hippocampus. It’s the part of your brain that tags memories with a time and place, filing them as “this happened years ago.” Chronic stress hormones physically shrink it. MRI scans of PTSD patients consistently show this. When your hippocampus can’t do its job, your brain stops distinguishing a 20-year-old memory from something happening right now. That’s why a slamming door in 2026 can put you right back in a room from 1998. Your brain genuinely cannot tell the difference.

The CDC ran the largest study on childhood trauma ever done. 64% of American adults report at least one adverse childhood experience. Those who had four or more were 12 times more likely to attempt suicide, develop depression, or struggle with addiction. The annual cost: $14.1 trillion.

The good news: this isn’t always permanent. A study of PTSD patients found that after treatment, the hippocampus grew back by 4.6%. The part of the brain that files memories as “the past” can be rebuilt.

SA DIGITAL PANTRY LAUNCHED

South African entrepreneur Meshi Qwelane has launched FOOBA, a digital food pantry platform designed to combat household food insecurity.

The app allows users to save as little as R5 towards a "digital pantry," ensuring funds are reserved strictly for groceries and protected from non-essential spending.

The platform also connects donors directly with vulnerable families.

With the average food basket cost hitting over R5,300, FOOBA provides real-time inflation tracking and budgeting tools.

Millennials are the elite generation because they cranked out 12-page essays the night before they were due. No ChatGPT. No Claude. Just lo-fi beats playing in the background, Black coffee at midnight, footnotes that were somehow correct, and pure delusion. Grade was an A minus. Period.

@feziledhlamini_ Fezile this is a very detailed report on the journey u travelled, very disappointing on the part of the IDC and SEDFA. But I am inspired by your tenacity & resilience, would like to meet to see how far u have gone. I will in the meantime forward this threat to a few guys i know

@IDCSouthAfrica @CyrilRamaphosa @Mashstartup Did we put in work? Yes. Through the support we applied for from the @IDCSouthAfrica, we hoped to make history as the first black automaker in the auto hub of the country. But you know, the IDC hates that. The saga continues.
