Hi Sun International @MillionThrills Please explain why your marketing hasn't been updated since October 2025? Mia was a great @Official_MissSA but why did Qhawekazi not get a similar opportunity for machine promo videos and you're still running this one?

Missing Eusebius McKaiser. We probably would have had a book, Could I Vote PA or Could I Vote Action SA by now. In time for what looks like being a chaotic election season

I’m not an expert on bad first dates, but this might be the funniest 😂 Jay Leno went into the audience to find the most embarrassing first date that a woman ever had. The winner described her worst first date experience. There was absolutely no question as to why her tale took the prize! She said it was midwinter, snowing and quite cold... and the guy had taken her skiing in the mountains outside Salt Lake City, Utah. It was a day trip (no overnight). They were strangers, after all, and had never met before. The outing was fun but relatively uneventful until they were headed home late that afternoon. They were driving back down the mountain when she gradually began to realize that she should not have had that extra latte !! They were about an hour away from anywhere with a restroom and in the middle of nowhere! Her companion suggested she try to hold it, which she did for a while. Unfortunately, because of the heavy snow and slow going, there came a point where she told him that he had better stop and let her go beside the road, or it would be the front seat of his car. They stopped and she quickly crawled out beside the car, yanked her pants down and started. In the deep snow she didn't have good footing, so she let her butt rest against the rear fender to steady herself. Her companion stood on the side of the car watching for traffic and indeed was a real gentleman and refrained from peeking. All she could think about was the relief she felt despite the rather embarrassing nature of the situation. Upon finishing, however, she soon became aware of another sensation. As she bent to pull up her pants, the young lady discovered her buttocks were firmly glued against the car's fender. Thoughts of tongues frozen to poles immediately came to mind as she attempted to disengage her flesh from the icy metal. It was quickly apparent that she had a brand new problem, due to the extreme cold. Horrified by her plight and yet aware of the humor of the moment, she answered her date's concerns about' what is taking so long' with a reply that indeed, she was 'freezing her butt off' and in need of some assistance! He came around the car as she tried to cover herself with her sweater and then, as she looked imploringly into his eyes, he burst out laughing. She too got the giggles and when they finally managed to compose themselves, they assessed her dilemma. Obviously, as hysterical as the situation was, they also were faced with a real problem. Both agreed it would take something hot to free her chilly cheeks from the grip of the icy metal! Thinking about what had gotten her into the predicament in the first place, both quickly realized that there was only one way to get her free. So, as she looked the other way, her first-time date proceeded to unzip his pants and pee her butt off the fender. As the audience screamed in laughter, she took the Tonight Show prize hands down. Or perhaps that should be 'pants down'. And you thought your first date was embarrassing. Jay Leno's comment..... 'This gives a whole new meaning to being pissed off.' Oh, and how did the first date turn out? He became her husband and was sitting next to her on the Leno show. 😂

Good people need to get involved in politics. Ultimately, the solutions to this country’s challenges lie in politics. The idea that you can simply work hard, make enough money, and escape to the suburbs while the rest of society falls apart is not only myopic, it’s also delusional. No man is an island. Look at places like Nigeria. Despite all his wealth, Burna Boy has to buy petrol from a 20-litre container instead of a proper petrol station. Money alone cannot shield you from a failing system. Suburbs in Joburg are experiencing water shortages. Many residents believed their wealth would insulate them from poor governance and incompetent leadership, but the reality is that when institutions fail, everyone feels the consequences. That is why it is crucial to encourage capable, ethical people to step into politics. Real change will only happen when good people are willing to take responsibility and lead. Join politics.

We are sending our kids to school to memorize facts that AI can retrieve in 0.3 seconds. We're grading them on essays that AI writes better than their teachers. We're preparing them for jobs that won't exist by the time they graduate. The entire education system is training humans to compete with machines at what machines do best. That's not education. That's sabotage. The schools that survive will teach thinking, not memorizing. Creating, not repeating. Discerning, not obeying. Every other school is a museum that doesn't know it yet.

It is with profound sadness that we honour the passing of Dr Diana Ferrus - cultural icon, literary giant, and cherished member of the UWC community. Her words restored dignity and helped bring Sarah Baartman home: uwc.ac.za/news-and-announcem… #IAmUWC

Wow. The xenophobia from many South Africans is intense now. Are we really going to deny someone healthcare? Is this where we are now? Do we really dissolve our humanity at the altar of nationalism? Really?
