The people of Eskom Se Push have made an app

Hey @SAReserveBank It’s past time you leave this app for Threads or somewhere that doesn’t have CSAM built into it (to say nothing of the Neo-fascism).
I got & blocked 3x robo call numbers TODAY from “debt review” companies - the last one even had the nerve to claim “you have been selected by your bank to pay less on your debts”. Something has to be done about this harassment of the SA consumer @NCRegulator @InforegulatorSA
I’ve had two more since this tweet. On Threads, people are telling me they routinely get 5-10 a day. @InforegulatorSA
I’m on the Do Not Contact list @SA_DMA maintains. But these companies aren’t members so it doesn’t apply. I’ve blocked 3x human caller and 3x robocall numbers this past WEEK. And my debt? Almost zilch. They’re blindly calling people, & lying to them about “being selected”.

This is yet another good example of why men are too emotional to be in leadership.

ALT The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling. By Jeffrey Goldberg

Trying to explain to *bank* customer support that there is no *insert or enter pin* option when you use your bank card on a TFL bus or in a tube station. It’s not a typical payment device. Fml. 🤦♀️
Reminder if you’re covering the new #CrimeStats : The murder rate is a pretty solid expression of the no. of murder victims. The rape & #sexualassault figures, however, reflect the no. of REPORTS. So a decline can actually (I’d say “likely”) represent lost trust or social shifts.
This country is so fucking unserious about GBV. Yes I know this could be read many ways, but it’s also indicative of a way of thinking that hurts everyone. Gross.

Pay attention to the conversation. If he never asks you a question about yourself or your opinion (it doesn’t have to be deep. It can be about a TV show even) then stop entertaining him
