Dark energies I don't touch. I'm here to connect and laugh with really amazing people. I'm very content and have no problems, I will not argue to prove a useless point. Kiss and don't tell 👑 – at Sandton, South Africa

THIS IS HOW WE SOLVE UNEMPLOYMENT! NATIONAL GOVERNMENT, WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN DONE? WHY ARE WE SHIPPING RAW MATERIALS EVEN IN 2026? Please share. Our unemployment is at its highest, solutions are here in plain sight, and nothing is being done.

How it feels when you’re the best at what you do, and they keep overlooking you because of your skin.

"I remember working at SPAR. I remember requesting leave for my exams, and when I handed in my timetable, my manager became rude and agitated when he realised I was a Law student. He shouted, “Why is she here if she’s studying Law?” From that day onwards, the toxicity and abuse towards me only got worse. It felt like everything was being done to make sure I quit. And yeah, I did. I’m humbled by the experience. Today, I’m a qualified lawyer."♥️
