I can’t believe we’re two months away from 2027 and the easiest way to save something as a PDF is still to lie to your computer and tell it you’re about to print it.

Fuel prices are escalating , cost of living is unaffordable, GBV and femicide is at an all time high, but you’re complaining about people washing their ass? Bye😭😭😭😭😭😭
Work places they have their own prayer room, special toilets “bidets installed”, specific microwave & fridge. If it’s team meeting they order pizza from only halaal restaurants only. Meetings rescheduled to accommodate xyz.. Why is it shoved down our throats?

our South African calendars are set up to follow Christian events…. Like allowing someone to go to mosque on a Friday for an hour is not that big of an inconvenience lol
The entitlement is actually insane. Imagine being in a workplace where an entire meeting has to stop because someone needs to pray at a specific time, and everybody is expected to accommodate it without question. Imagine changing examination schedules around one religious group’s requirements. Now imagine a Christian asking for an entire meeting to stop because they need to pray at a specific time. Would that same accommodation be extended, or would they be told to manage their religion on their own time? Religious freedom cannot mean that one religion’s practices become everybody else’s responsibility while everyone else is expected to keep their beliefs private and out of the way. If we are accommodating religious practices, the principle should be applied fairly, not selectively.

South Africa is one of the most religious-tolerant countries in the world. We celebrate Eid and Divali and Yom Kippur just like we celebrate Good Friday and Christmas. They are all moments where there’s good vibes in SA, even for atheists. The campaign to divide us will fail.

yes it really is that simple 😭
do people really think that companies selling us halal food is because of some grand scheme to convert South Africans to Islam? no. it's because companies want money from Muslim people as well. capitalism.

this South African halaal food discourse is making me feel some of type of way I can’t describe because I’ve never seen this much open vitriol towards Muslims in this country

first time I’ve heard that all too well is considered rock?
Rolling Stone names “All Too Well (10 Minute Version)” by Taylor Swift the 33rd best rock song of the 21st century. 🔗: rollingstone.com/music/music…
