Probably Hip Hop’s most exciting act in recent years, and by far my favourite. 🐊
I took a closer look at @officialdoechii’s Alligator Bites Never Heal, exploring this work as a continuation of rap tradition - and its simultaneous defiance of rules.

So grateful for @GabbySidibe breaking down the antifatness, colorism, shapism, etc. that so many of us experience in this world.
Similarly I know I’m stunning but not by societal standards and my treatment by others has been laced with antifatness.
This “betraying the flag” chat is motivated by blind patriotism. If u cared genuinely about the athletes in your country, you’d be more concerned about how underserved they are. But sadly sport is more of a nationalist project than a social one, and that is such wasted potential.

Gayton McKenzie has been an utter failure as a minister. I want him gone immediately

I have to commend the way you’ve responded politely to every single person complaining about the typo. I also think it’s so cool that they’re going so hard for the correction.🥹🫶🏽✨

She’s fought hard publicly and privately to continue swimming and advocating for the support of the code in green and gold. Given today’s story about the challenge the same team faces for world champs, I respect the call she’s had to make. All the best @TRSchoenmaker 🩷
South Africa’s most decorated Olympian, Tatjana Smith, has officially switched sporting allegiance to the Netherlands after World Aquatics approved her change of nationality.
🥇🥇 Olympic gold medals
🥈🥈 Olympic silver medals
🇿🇦 A South African legend
While she will now compete in Dutch colours and target LA 2028, Smith will remain based in South Africa, continue training with her long-time coaches, and support local athletes through the Lighthouse Sport Foundation.
👉 A new flag, but an enduring legacy in South African sport. 💚💛

And now we’ve lost Tatjana. Yho Gayton is one of the worst things to happen to this country. Ffs.
Swimming South Africa has informed team members that they will have to pay R55,000 for their flights and accommodation for the World Aquatics Swimming Championships.

Gayton McKenzie found money to take 20 fans and 20 artists to the World Cup, but where is the money for our swimmers? Olympic champions are being asked to pay R55,000 to compete. Please explain these priorities without insulting our intelligence.

@GaytonMcK you’re useless and I wish you’d just accept that and step aside ❤️
