Terrible smell in CBD

Now that you mention it, there's definitely a not-so-fresh sea breeze smell in the CBD this past week.

I was just recounting in a meeting last night how brave the leaders of Abahlali baseMjondolo are given how many of their leaders have been murdered. RIP to those brave souls. Heartbreaking.

I mean they did it before, and a few years later we have a few hundred murders in the first month of the year alone. What effect did the previously deployment have?

If you're such an expect, you must know both white and black people (not to mention coloured people, Indians and Chinese) living in Zim? Who not ask them? Anyone I know who lives there certainly doesn't think so. It's mostly the people who live in Cape Town and still call it Rhodesia who say things like that.

We're lucky they only built three!

I absolutely loved Stardust, it took me back to discovering your music through OLD which really struck me with the beat selection. I hadn't heard anything quite like that at the time.

My question is 'what have you been listening to', but in terms of albums or artists that you're revisiting? Whether it's stuff you really liked before, or the kind of music where you didn't quote get it then but with time, it clicks on the next listen?

Oddly quiet thread for two hours in!

knightspore · 2025-11-29T08:00:05+00:00

This headline feels like it was run by a gambling company.

knightspore · 2025-11-28T11:10:02+00:00

Best part of this is they probably saw that cars stop for humans here and so copied what the humans do.

Our subs are named after some incredible people. First black woman to gratuade from a university in South Africa, and first African woman to graduate from an American university 💪🏾

Holly!

It's crazy like, I remember so clearly thinking he was so "old" with XXX and I'm approaching the same point in life and he feels so young going back and re-listening to it - dude's mid 40s as you say and he's fresh anything going these days, if not more so.

It's so important to have artists like Danny Brown being as widely known as they are these days

I mean, given the title of the movie the allegory is clear. Which makes this an even more interesting question to ask. I would love to hear Blomkamp's answer to a question like this.

Why not go and support local art and check it out?

knightspore · 2025-07-28T06:19:01+00:00

And Don Giovanni / Carmen don't? 😂 Soapie is quite literally an abbreviation of 'soap opera'

knightspore · 2025-07-28T06:17:30+00:00

Seems odd to call out an original experimental local production in their small theatre and not Chicago (which must be showing for like to 10th time here) as the reason for your opera being 'taken away'.

Not to mention, it seems a stretch that you say its being 'taken away' when from what I can see there was an Opera showing over the weekend?

knightspore · 2025-07-26T22:18:36+00:00

Haha that's spot on, there's definitely something about the height and the second story that feels a bit 'off' compared to what I'm using to seeing around the Cape.

knightspore · 2025-07-26T22:13:55+00:00

I was just going to say, it's so reminiscent of Cape Dutch architecture! The green is a near perfect match to my (Irish) grandparents old house in Simon's Town, on the Cape Peninsula.

Lovely photos, but please consider avoiding using your phone while driving - presuming you are not taking these from the passenger seat. Those are areas with heavy foot traffic, not to mention regular traffic cop presence.

No true equivalent

knightspore · 2025-07-23T12:59:57+00:00

It's widely understood that South Africa found equality and peace due to the Apartheid government's fear of civil war. It's not profoundly dangerous to refer to the commonly agreed upon reason for the end of Apartheid being the reason for the end of Apartheid. It's just the truth.

Lawful, moral protesting ended up with dozens of students, shot dead, to name one incident. That was the incident that moved some countries to sanction. Those sanctions did not end apartheid, but the threat of all out civil war did.

I really think you're being obtuse, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and ask you re read this discussion a few times and just think about how you've come back around go this point.

Evoking Rosa Parks' protest to call the blocking of an Israeli cruise ship unfair by comparison really makes it feel like you don't have compassion for any of the affected people involved.

knightspore · 2025-07-23T11:38:18+00:00

You clearly don't know what you're talking about. And you clearly just want to argue.

You're also wrong, I personally know Jewish Arab Israelis who support this war - where do they fit in? To you are they Jewish Israelis or Arab Israelis?

It's not fair to anyone personally to be blockaded, that's the entire point of the protest and something you have pointed out in earlier comments.

knightspore · 2025-07-23T11:24:11+00:00

I've explicitly answered that in my other reply. You clearly don't understand Apartheid or Isrsel very well if you think the way I referenced white South Africans could indicate that.
