OUR Zimbabwean multinationals are driving this! They’re funding it with the capital gains and corporate tax cuts they got because they said they’d invest in creating jobs. Which they did. In Namibia. In South Africa.
What’s left? Financial, business, medical, cutting edge high-tech? Wait til the geniuses selling out Zimbabwe learn they have business schools in South Africa , too. Financial service expertise. Remember, South Africa has a big trade surplus. Invested somewhere other than in Zimbabwean bonds….Want a explanation of free trade? Tech job in Zimbabwe = $5,200. Same job in Namibia = $3,000.

Conflict gives meaning to the meaningless.Without opposition, identity collapses. So we build one. We draw lines on maps, then forget who drew them. Every tribe begins as fear, then calls itself culture.We love belonging because it saves us from thinking.It’s easier to chant …
- We Turned Horniness Into An IndustryLet me explain this slowly, because if you blinked for five minutes in June, you might’ve missed the moment humanity officially gave up pretending it had standards. An actress, Sydney Sweeney, famous, attractive, very online-adjacent, partnered with a men’s grooming company called Dr Squatch to release a limited-edition bar of soap. Five thousand bars.
