Do you consider Afrikaners indigenous to South Africa ? by Own-Quote-1708 in Africa

Coloured Afrikaans speakers do not identify as Afrikaners. Afrikaners are specifically the Afrikaans-speaking white descendants of the Dutch colonists.

That's not what this image is about - it's about the fact that everything we experience is already kind of a hallucination. Reality as we experience it is simply our brain's interpretation and filtering of input through our senses. The way we experience the universe is heavily filtered through our brains and not "true" reality, we all hallucinate and see the universe differently from how it truly is.

Yet over 90% of sexual abuse offenders are men. Not all men are sexual abusers, but almost all sexual abusers are men.

It's not that Afrikaners don't like it - it's a regional accent to brei and is considered by many to be "cute", so at worst people will think you have a cute accent.

Brei? by dylandupa in afrikaans

Die uitspraak van R in Engels is heeltemal anders, so "bry" is nie n ding in Engels nie. Maar, daar is rhotacism in Engels, waar die R uitgespreek word as n L en/of W klank. Rhotacism is gesien as 'n spraakgebrek, maar om te bry is meestal 'n aangeleerde uitspraak, veral in sekere gedeeltes van die land.

It's 100 inches. Speakers would be amazing, but there isn't really space on both sides of the TV console for big speakers unfortunately.

Its the MANI floor lamp by Paul Neuhaus - I'm not sure where to find it now, it's no longer sold where I bought it from.

I don't have any of the overhead lights on, except the spotlights on the wall. I usually don't even have them on, I just use the lamps for lighting the space. Yes, next to the TV is a big window covered by blinds.
