hot weather snack: get some nice sweet grapes and pop them in the freezer. because of the sugar they turn out like slushy capsules

here in za there are KYC services commonly in use for ID verification that i assume would be contracted. generally you upload a selfy with your ID document in view and a clear copy of the ID doc

houses are only part of the issue, there's lots they could be doing (stellenbosch and drakenstein too) but they don't. there's also a lot they do that they shouldn't, like approving development in the flood plain

literately every winter in #CapeTown the stories of "oh noes, the poors are getting flooded" roll in. and every year the question "so what is the city going to do?" is met with "do? they're the poors. that's what happens" ~ https://groundup.org.za/article/flooding-in-strand/

zuma is just better at it

this is the mistake people have always made with zuma, he's not playing the same game. he's manipulating the structures around him to get what he wants. he doesn't care one way or the other about the elections, only that he gets a pardon and that his people get back in power. so if he can apply pressure with a performance about voting issues, he will. once cyril is gone, those complaints will disappear

the goal is to unseat the ramaphosa faction in the ANC. they don't need evidence, they just need the ANC internal structure to rearrange a bit
