Trillionaires shouldn't exist. Even the idea of it is utterly obscene.
Damn!!
Oh, holy shit! Andy Serkis is about to lose his title of best South African accent by a non-South African in a movie. Rosamund Pike has a movie coming out soon where she plays a South African, & this is her, off the cuff, teaching a journalist how to do a South African accent.
The people here have been stealing gate motors in my neighbourhood. Some members of the community long framed the thieves as Zimbabwean & Malawian migrants who occupy the pavements looking for piece jobs. The WhatsApp group has been silent since this image was shared.
Gate motor thieves - nailed.

Several SA hotel groups now only have fridges - as a guest convenience - in their premium rooms. So this nice empty space remains in their standard rooms as a reminder of more generous times and bit of a middle finger to guests wanting to store their drinks, meds etc
People keep telling me, “School shouldn’t expose kids to new things or it might put them off learning forever.” My friend, it is LITERALLY the purpose of school to acquaint them with things they might not encounter otherwise. A good education will awaken their lifelong curiosity.

The President of the United States was ordered by the court to feed starving Americans and he’s fighting it. Let that sink in.
🤣 Some A-grade trolling right there.

Funny how after a terrible night, the GOP's first order of business is making it harder to vote instead of making grocery prices lower like they promised.
Trump to Senate Republicans: "We should pass no mail-in voting."
When I fetch my son from school, I spend up to 15 minutes just standing outside taking in the trees, clouds, birds, and view - it is magic!
🚨 GEN Z IS PUTTING THEMSELVES IN “TIMEOUT” - AND CALLING IT HEALING No phone. No TV. No music. No food. Just silence. They’re calling it “raw dogging boredom.” 15 minutes of sitting completely still with zero distractions. Some say it’s weird. Others say it’s genius. Is this the dumbest trend yet or the smartest thing we’ve seen in years?

Why Huawei’s Founder Isn’t Among China’s Top 20 Richest People Huawei’s founder Ren Zhengfei is not on the list of China’s richest — even though Huawei’s revenue is more than 100 times larger than companies like Cambricon, whose founder is on that list. In the 1990s, Ren Zhengfei introduced a unique ownership structure at Huawei. The company belongs to its employees. Out of Huawei’s 208,000 employees, more than 150,000 are shareholders. Ren Zhengfei himself now holds only 0.65% of the shares — the remaining 99.35% are owned by the employees. Independent from stock market fluctuations Not controlled by any family or single person Driven by a system where the employees directly benefit from success The result? Remarkable motivation, deep loyalty, and a true sense of ownership across the entire company. In my view, this makes Ren Zhengfei the greatest entrepreneur of them all — not because of personal wealth, but because he built a company where collective success outweighs individual fortune. #China #Huawei
I always see parents in morning traffic or at school drop offs safely buckled up and their toddlers sitting unrestrained in the front or back seat.I’m really just wondering why this is the case. Why do we not restrain our children in the car?I’m really just trying to understand.

Larry King trying to interview Eric André is one of the funniest things I've ever seen
🤣
If you feel like you're bad at your job and it's making you depressed, just consider that, as the investigation of the recent heist revealed, the password to access the Louvre's videosurveillance system was "Louvre".

Kroeber: In the longer run, China has scored an important win by using its rare-earths leverage to force Washington to back down on export controls for the first time. The days of the US being able to sanction China with impunity are over. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

I'm not letting this go. It seems like it should be a much bigger deal that the President of the United States admitted on live TV Sunday night that he has no idea who he's pardoning — that he only pardoned a crypto fraudster because his sons told him to. Why is the media ignoring this corruption?
😂
this is just nine inch nails
