Say what you want about South Africa, but man does it tell a story well. Amongst the master storytellers must surely be the Keiskamma Trust, pictured here a detail from the mesmerising 'Keiskamma Guernica' on exhibition at @VisitConHill - it'll remind you why you do what you do

I posted yesterday about a cat saved from the rubble in Turkey who refused to leave his rescuer's side. The rescuer's name is Ali Cakas and he adopted the cat, naming him Enkaz - "rubble" in Turkish. May they have a happy life together! 📷- jcacs_1/ Instagram

@__maintenance @SarahKSilverman Gaza is nothing but civilian infrastructure. It's 2.2 million people jammed into a tiny piece of territory.
@__maintenance @SarahKSilverman Apartment building are not military targets...and if the Mossad's Intelligence was so good it completely missed this Hamas attack what makes anyone believe they know the targets are in high rise flats
Israel only shoots at military targets, but they KNOW they keep those targets in populated areas - so the question is: Why are military targets more important than human life?? Why retaliate like this? Just more murder more bodies more hate. My heart bleeds for all the innocent…

@rid1tweets At the time evidence supported that. And at they time we needed them most they still protected many. The vaccines are still safe, however less effective at reducing transmission *because* of variants. They are still effective against progression to severe disease. > however>
@rid1tweets Being sent on conspiracy groups as some kind of evidence -It isn’t. It’s a std clause. It means govts are responsible for compensation. It doesn’t mean adverse events aren’t reported & acted on. Also doesn’t mean post marketing surveillance is neglected. legalwise.co.za/help-yourself/…
