Look at the popular vote. America didn't get more right wing, it just gave up on the national Democratic party. Trump lost 3 million votes... and Harris (and Biden), lost 15 million votes. That's what happens when you run the "everything's fine the way it is" campaign

I followed @jozivsjozi recently, and posts have now littered my feed. What a visceral representation of a city's decline. Why do we let such potential fall to ruin.

🌇 Johannesburg's Urban Decay This account @jozivsjozi is documenting the urban decay of Johannesburg by comparing Street View images from circa 2010 to today. Give them a follow and enjoy the decay...

Max Roser just published a great article in the New York Times, calling for a new international poverty line. He suggests a poverty line of $30 per day. Using this line, 83% of the world still lives in poverty. This is shocking. We are miles away from eliminating poverty.

Man, NZ rugby is in the mud. Declining participation doesn't help either

In the VAR era I think Henry would have 10-15 more goals on his tally too. So fast he was regularly flagged offside incorrectly.

No human being is illegal. The existence of borders implies violence necessary to enforce & maintain them. The USA created the conditions from which almost all migrants would be fleeing.

If you think there is any sort of pragmatic need for Biden to impose this border policy - you are a bad person! And a racist probably.

In recent times, nothing captures Africa's poverty, lack of infrastructure & lack of vision like global sports. If you deep it, it's so mad. For yesterday's UCL final, 60,000 Dorrmund fans travelled to London.

A timely reminder that performative activity on social media is not "action." Amal Clooney has been dragged continuously for the past few months for supposedly being silent on Gaza. She was diligently doing her actual job and making a tangible difference in the real world.

Amal Clooney announces the conclusions of the Panel of Experts in International Law, convened by @KarimKhanQC to advise on @IntlCrimCourt arrest warrant applications for crimes in Israel and Palestine. Read her @FinancialTimes oped. ft.com/content/aa2089…

On May 29, I'm voting for Rise Mzansi (national and provincial) and Zackie Achmat (regional). Here's why: 1. For starters, the ANC is corrupt beyond redemption, the DA is ex-growth as it doesn't resonate with most South Africans, and the EFF is nothing but loud populism. 🧵

I took this photo in Johannesburg during the 1994 election campaign. Note NP’s slogan. It’s been theirs and later on DA’s strategy throughout: Stop the swart gevaar, stop the ANC.
