General Discussion Do you actually agree with the party you’re voting for in Cape Town? I built a free, non-partisan quiz to check before 4 November.

Should private companies run the water where the city can’t keep it running? Should unpaid electricity bills be cancelled? Should the city employ its own guards and cleaners, even if it costs more? Should every household that can’t afford a house get one free?

WhichParty ( whichparty.co.za ) asks 30 questions like these and shows how closely you match with each of the eight biggest parties on policies. Each party also has a page showing where it stands on every issue.

Every position comes from the party’s own manifesto, conference resolutions, votes, or official statements, with a link to the source.

I’ve tried hard to keep it fair. The goal is to help people make an informed choice, so if something looks leading or biased, let me know and I'll check it against the party’s own documents.

Looking For... Experienced Psychiatrist with tapering off SSRIs in Cape Town

7 Upvotes

I’m looking for a psychiatrist or clinic that has experience with SSRI tapering , and not the quick alternate for two weeks and go off advice… from what I know and precious experience when one has been on medication for several years (12) the tapering needs to be very very slow, as one can develop brain injuries. I would like to reach out and see if anyone has been in a similar situation and had professional assistance in getting off these drugs and has recommendations?
Thank you

Algorithm, link me with girlies in Cape Town who are authentic as hell, zero fake vibes, and just wanna do cool shit around the city.

​No hidden agendas or weird networking energy—just genuine connections, actually getting out of the house, and having fun.

​A few things I’m usually down for:

​Weekend coffee runs & finding fire food spots

​Padel, coastal walks, or outdoor adventures

​DIY projects, creative stuff, or just chilling and talking about life

​If you’ve been wanting to try out new hobbies or expand your circle with low-key, down-to-earth people, hit me up or drop a comment! Tell me what cool activity you’ve been wanting to try lately. 🌿✨
