Indigenous Land Dispute Dogs Amazon's Africa Expansion

Amazon's new African HQ, a $300 million development is set to be built on historical South African indigenous land.

“The area, at the confluence of two rivers, is the ancestral home to the earliest Khoi and San inhabitants in Southern Africa.

It carries cosmological, spiritual and environmental significance to these indigenous groups.

Following the victory against the Portuguese, the Khoi later battled against the Dutch in 1659.

After the Dutch prevailed, it is where colonial administrator Jan Van Riebeek launched a campaign of land dispossession, an event that researchers and activist say laid the bedrock for what would become apartheid white minority rule years later.

It is also where the Dutch East India Company, a colonial mega-corporation made up of Dutch trading companies in the 17th century, first brought in slaves to farm the land from countries including Malaysia, Madagascar and India.

Plans include turning the 15-hectare riverside area into a mixed-use development made up of offices, shops, a hotel, a gym, restaurants and conferencing space as well as affordable housing.

Amazon is set to become the development’s main tenant, with plans to build a 70,000-square metre Africa headquarters.

LLTP have proposed honouring the Khoi and San history by constructing a heritage garden, a media centre, an ampitheatre and naming internal roads after indigenous leaders.”

Italics mine, bc you  have got to be shitting me.

Question: How does the company Amazon die? How does their expansion end and crumble?

Janelle Monae coming out as non-binary is super, super important to me as a black femme and I sincerely hope that you all boost them just like you boost white trans people who come out. 

man, I have very little sympathy for people who’re like “I gotta let them play in traffic, my cat WAILS and acts MISERABLE unless I let them outside!” 

because like……….so does mine? at a certain point each day Grim decides she wants out, and until that happens she a) follows me about SCREAMING, and b) sits atop whatever I’m doing and bites my hands. this is not an exageration

wanna know what I do? I take her out. either supervised in my backyard or on leash in the front

she naps in the sunlight, eats copious amounts of grass, rolls in dirt, and murders butterflies. after 15-30 minutes (equivalent to the time you’d spend on a neighbourhood dog walk) I take Grim back in, and she happily sleeps/plays/cuddles indoors for the remainder of the day

it’s legitimately low-effort

bold of you to assume i dont eat soup through a straw

On a scale of 1-10 how edible are you? I have this nice soup recipe that I’ve been wanting to try for a while now and I want to add something...unique to it.

USE ME FOR BULLION

The fact that I reported a puppet account for saying Black people deserved slavery and was given a bullshit "that's their opinion" response yet staff has deleted 3 of my Black mutuals on the same fucking day tells my that @staff is racist and that Black Excellence banner is only for fucking show. Y'all will let Black bloggers be harassed, but God forbid one of them says fucking white women. With fucking full blown pesos and white supremacists on your fucking site too. Hope your building blows up

im not a doctor, im just also a mess of shitty cartilage, and this is my experience, so like, dont quote me or anything lol

neoprene knee braces and ankle brace work pretty well, but i can never sleep in them, its just very uncomfortable, it gets really sweaty and kind sore. ive not yet tried elbow/shoulder/wrist braces, but i imagine its a similar experience. they do limit joint movement to an extent, but that means it can also be hard to go about your business. i think id recommend full on braces for liek, exercising, and particularly wobbly days. on better days, flex tape works pretty well

hope this helps!

dumb question but do those joint braces keep your joints in place and could i use them for subluxations
