Very articulate description of the current mess in South Africa, but ALSO very much applicable to Or her regions of the world. Please read and share: www.instagram.com/p/DaI9-SIjVQ...

The Augrabies Falls in Northern Cape South Africa is magnificent after recent floods.

Dog decided he could climb trees today so good luck to the squirrels.

Charlize Theron on the Night Her Mother Killed Her Father in Self-Defense Unfortunately, this is not an isolated story. These things are prevalent in a lot of homes. Women really get a very, very unfair shake, even in this country. Nobody takes it seriously.

I watched the movie Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight based on Alexandra Fuller's book of the same name. It was phenomenal. Should have been an Oscar contender especially as it's all carried by a 7 year old actress. On Netflix in my country. Watch it if you can.

Read and share. Ironically, IMO, South Africa's list of future threats ignores the one element that will exponentially exarberate those actually listed.

Happy New Year from the tip of Africa.

MacGyver resource guarding the Christmas tree because he knows there’s a present or two for him.

Ahead of the G20 summit in South Africa, women staged a lie-down protest in Johannesburg to protest gender-based violence.

Pigeon.

South African government declares gender-based violence a national disaster. Protesting works. Well done to the women who made this happen. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Today, the same day as the G20, South African women are boycotting shopping, staying home from work and wearing purple to protest gender based violence. www.okayafrica.com/fed-up-with-...

I love Joanne Harris’ daily descriptions of her shed. But today my timeline got weird…

When the sun turned black and red the moon…

Can we maybe just skip to the part where the good guys win and everyone lives happily ever after?

When we toured the Vatican in 2023 our lively young tour guide had such reverence, respect and true admiration for Pope Francis. Thinking of her today.

The South African ambassador to the US has been kicked out after accusing Trump of “mobilising a supremacism against the incumbency”. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Just finished the HBO Mary Tyler Moore documentary. Die-hard feminists may disagree but I think she did a huge amount to normalise single, working women in society. All over the world. She’d be so disappointed to see everything going backwards.

Trump allies are trying to takeover the DC Bar

Here I am again, unscrupulously pushing my baby. Please repost and order (only if you can afford too and are interested). Many thanks for the support, love you all so much. I would be eternally grateful for some of my BIG account friends could post to their friends too. Linda💞🧑‍🦼💞

Do you hear the people sing? Singing the song of angry men. It is the music of the people who will not be slaves again.

Don’t want to be a conspiracy theorist 🙄 but is it weird that God is sending this snowstorm this week?

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

I can’t actually believe The Girls on the Bus wasn’t renewed for a second season. Having just watched the last episode I feel like the bad guy won all over again and no one can stop him. Pleeeez pick it up, someone!
