She reminds me of a lovely Jeanette Winterson quote:
I know now, after fifty years, that the finding/losing, forgetting/remembering, leaving/returning, never stops. The whole of life is about another chance and while we are alive, till the very end, there is always another chance

There now follows a party election broadcast by the Count Binface Party, And if I do say so myself, it's a banger. #VoteBinface #Clacton

I know some people may have legitimate reasons for doing so, but to me, turning off WhatsApp read receipts signals a tiny bit of dishonesty. It's creating plausible deniability around whether they've read a message. I'd rather normalise, "I saw your message, but I'll reply in my own time." Let's just own leaving people on read. It's okay. People have their reasons for taking their time to respond.

Almost a month and I still cannot log into the @WOOLWORTHS_SA app. Don't even bother telling me to DM you: I have, and I have emailed, and still nothing. Guess I am no longer a dash customer.

Enjoy cooking?! I have a solution! Become the person responsible for planning, buying ingredients for, and cooking dinner every night until you die, and you too will not be able to contemplate a meal that accommodates all your children's preferences without wanting to end it all!

My middle and youngest son just had a huge fight on stage (their bedroom) about who would sing the chorus of Acquiesce, which somehow feels very authentic #OasisLive25

"One of the highest tariff rates, 50 percent, was imposed on the African nation of Lesotho, whose average citizen earns less than $5 a day.
Because Lesotho’s citizens are too poor to afford most U.S. exports, while the U.S. imports $237 million in diamonds and other goods from the small landlocked nation, we have reserved close to our highest-possible tariff rate for one of the world’s poorest countries.
The notion that taxing Lesotho gemstones is necessary for the U.S. to add steel jobs in Ohio is so absurd that I briefly lost consciousness in the middle of writing this sentence."

There are a million more things one could show here. The claim is so factually absurd it would be never-ending. South Africa has many serious challenges. But the idea that persecution of whites is one of them is just pure fantasy, laughable if it weren't so grotesque...
Joined @Discovery_SA bank on the strength of this offer. Did all the necessary, but two months later no voucher and no follow up to telephonic query. What's the deal?

No! No! Come on! You can't do this! You CAN NOT do this! What happens now? Governor? Who must I troll now about cooking, Kigali, Kagame, shoes, and tailor-made suits? You'd call & tell me to give you a break! I can't give you a break. Please come back. Come back. #TitoMboweni

Tito Mboweni was - despite being an excellent SARB governor and Finance Minister - a humble and cheerful man.
He brought so much joy by sharing his cooking, knowing full well he’d be teased and his X timeline is full of praise for people trying their best.
This is such a loss. 💔
Susan Hall retweeted
He was a good man, and a brilliant central banker. He made powerful policy changes with deep social impact, and he shared his heart with us on social media. We are richer for him, and poorer that he is gone. Rest in peace, Minister. Go well, Tito.
