This is one of the greatest gifts my best friend left me: the eternal gift of his voice. Even as his own life slipped away, he chose to inspire others, leaving behind a legacy of strength and hope. I will always love you, Abram. You were not just a friend, but a brother—a truly extraordinary soul who touched lives with your courage and kindness. Your voice will forever echo in my heart.

With a little bit more exposure, you will realise how deeply political it can be or already is. You can start by looking at the biases that the language models already carry. It’s not difficult to see.

Tupperware: More than just containers—it's the container of memories.
Tupperware is closing operations in South Africa by the end of December 2024. It’s not just the end of a business; it’s the end of an era that shaped childhoods, homes, and communities.
Let’s take a walk down memory lane. 🌍💔
For many, the iconic "pop" of a Tupperware lid closing was the soundtrack of their childhood. School lunches, leftover dinners, family picnics—it all came in those sturdy, colorful containers that seemed almost indestructible.
In South African homes, Tupperware wasn’t just about food. It was about love. The lunches our mothers packed in them carried not just sandwiches but care, warmth, and a bit of home. Every container held a story.
Remember the Tupperware parties? In the '80s and '90s, they were more than sales events. They were social gatherings, where women found community, empowerment, and independence. Mothers became entrepreneurs, carving their place in the world, one container at a time.
Earl Tupper created the first Tupperware in 1946 in the USA. He wasn’t just designing plastic containers; he was revolutionizing food storage. But it was Brownie Wise, a single mother, who popularized the concept with home demonstrations. A woman at the forefront—of course.
For our mothers, Tupperware represented resilience and resourcefulness. They saved leftovers, stretched meals, and ensured nothing went to waste. It was about survival and making a little go a long way. It was sustainability before it had a name.
Seeing Tupperware in our kitchens was like seeing an old family friend. Stained by curries, scratched from decades of use—each mark held a memory. We grew up, but those containers stayed.
As Tupperware closes its South African chapter, it’s more than a loss of jobs—it’s the closing of a nostalgic book. An end to a piece of cultural history that held our childhood lunches and our mothers' dreams.
But memories don’t close. We’ll still hear that “pop” in our minds. We’ll remember the lunches packed with love. The stories shared at those Tupperware parties. And the quiet strength of mothers who made magic with plastic containers.
Tupperware may leave, but its legacy stays. In our hearts, in our kitchens, in every meal that fed not just our bodies but our souls.
Thank you, Tupperware, for the memories. The end of an era, but never the end of love. 🫶 #Tupperware #EndOfAnEra

A significant democratic failure took place in this election. The government and IEC did not do all they should have to enable all South Africans who wanted to, to vote. Funding cuts, late and poorly communicated rule changes, operational failures on the day. How many people didn't vote because they were daunted by long lines or learned on the day that they couldn't vote if not at registered voting station? We need an independent study to quantify impact on turnout and learn lessons.

Please do not withdraw a portion of your retirement funds as per the new law. Any withdrawals will be taxed at your marginal tax rate. By withdrawing you will lose the future compounding growth of that money and you could be worse off in retirement.
PRESIDENT RAMAPHOSA ENACTS LAW ALLOWING EMERGENCY ACCESS TO RETIREMENT FUNDS
President @CyrilRamaphosa has signed into law the Revenue Laws Amendment Bill of 2023, which establishes a “two-pot” system that gives members of retirement funds access to retirement savings without having to resign or cash out entire pension funds.
The amendment law introduces a “two-pot” retirement system to address the concerns related to lack of preservation before retirement and lack of access to retirement funds by households in financial distress.
This retirement system comprises a savings and retirement component for contributions made after 1 September 2024, while historical retirement benefits will be housed in a vested component.
Individuals will have access to amounts in the savings component before retirement for times of financial distress, and the amounts in the retirement component are preserved until retirement.
The primary objective of the two-pot retirement system is to provide flexibility for fund members to access their retirement savings during emergencies, without necessitating resignation.
The reform introduced by the legislation strives to strike a balance between long-term security and immediate needs, recognising life's unpredictability.
It permits fund members to access a portion of their savings during crises, such as those seen during the COVID-19 challenges.
These changes ensure the retirement system remains responsive to diverse financial needs, supporting both long-term financial security and immediate assistance during emergencies.
Traditional retirement systems primarily focus on long-term savings, often lacking the adaptability to address immediate financial crises.
President Ramaphosa said: “While we are continuing the task of growing our economy to create more opportunities for all South Africans and reduce the financial vulnerability affecting many individuals and households, the new retirement system offers protection and dignity to those who need it the most to overcome financial stress.”
ISSUED BY THE PRESIDENCY OF THE REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA
