Loadshedding is so much more than simply “not having electricity”. It’s a productivity issue, it’s a safety issue, a health issue, and and and and.... it’s a bloody CRISIS but it’s being handled like a minor inconvenience.

Don’t do your will at FNB, they name themselves as Executors and they charge the maximum executors fee. Even charge R800 for photocopies when handling the estate.

Guys, do your Wills. If you're an FNB client and you don't have any complicated circumstances (sole parent, spouse's you hate etc.) you can do it via the app.

Pregnant woman today said she had to come out to the shops because her husband isn’t used to getting groceries and won’t know how to pick bananas properly - #COVID19 not only showing how unsustainable capitalism is but also how fucking risky patriarchy is.
