I speak Afrikaans with my dad, German with my mother, English with my younger brother, Afrikaans with my older brother, and they all speak differently with each other, and this is just a normal day in our family life. #languages #growingupmultilimgual
Oh my god. I'm in 4 languages mode at the moment. I speak Portuguese and French to my family, Spanish to my partner and English to everyone else. My brain will explode 😂

Facebook is down — and maybe that's a good thing.
Big Tech has found a winning strategy for monopolizing our attention. What if it's also making us less moral and empathetic? The consequences would be catastrophic, @SigalSamuel writes. vox.com/the-highlight/225852…

Food for thought for all us journos in the MENA region. This is how to start fixing #journalism in the #Arab world. Such an important piece by @ARahman_Mansour link.medium.com/1eW7edxESV
"Barling insists that he never expects a future in journalism that’s completely human-free." Oh well that's a relief....😑😒 Journalism has become a veritable s#*t show, so now we're in this situation. circa.com/story/2018/04/10/p… #journalismjobs #AI #FakeNews
In 2018, 18% of MENA funding deals were in startups with at least 1 female founder. Female-only startups accounted for only 3.5%. BUT it's more than the 2.2% of funding that went into female-only startups in the US. MENA winning? @MAGNITT #femalefounders magnitt.com/research/startup…

We all start the day with a cup of #coffee ☕. But did you know that the word coffee in almost any #language comes from the Arabic word "Qahwa" قهوة? #WordOfTheDay #NaTakallam

Well this changes everything... 😱💁♀️

Well impressed by @kathilynnaustin and her gutsy and detailed investigation into rhino poaching in SA #FollowTheGuns. #CarteBlanche. Stop gun manufacture & trade = this and majority of world’s problems solved. xitter.gq/carteblanchetv/status/…
Tracking the guns recovered from rhino poaching incidents leads us to some kingpins fuelling the poaching. #CarteBlanche
