@JohnAmaraa My favorite so far is TÉMI and Fallen Deity. I'm geeked by the use of religious figures, which absolutely tickles my brain. I'm still reading, been a bit distracted the last two days. I still want to send you more of my thoughts in a personal message when I'm done 💜

Ngl I’m still mind blown that 201 people want to read my poems. I’m so happy we came across each other this way. Y’all are the realest !

Some African writers without publishers are trying to get readers, like me. I’m offering my poetry book to the pirates and captains quite literally for free Read and share with your friends, I will appreciate as much criticisms and feedback I can get. selar.com/0e077r

@fatherrwethu I appreciate this so much, thank you 💜 I'll need the reminder to be patient, but I'm genuinely excited.

@Charls_Heart Along with the other reply, don’t be scared to make mistakes! Be patient with yourself and try conversate with those around you who speak the language you’d like to learn. Practice practice practice! It’s really fun, and it’ll make you feel very collected to your community!

I think we should redirect that energy to white South Africans who can’t speak anything but English and Afrikaans. SAWUBONA UNJANI NIGGA!

@KINNEYCTRL @fatherrwethu Oh, my weakness is soapies, thank you so much for the brilliant idea 💜 I'm definitely going to rely on online tutoring.

@Charls_Heart @fatherrwethu learn what is spoken in your area. there are lots of tutors online and irl who can give you one on one lessons and immerse yourself in the media of that culture (like soapies)

@tlouxjinx Hating men is not enough for me anymoreeeeeee

what in the actual fuck

shiiii I may have to do a calypso cosplay

@luvrgworl Your tweet is literally art.

@Charls_Heart lmaoooo u fully get it 😭😭😭

if I’m on my period at twigs I’m free bleeding in that bitch

@uppitysouthy Of course, it's a man making that comparison.

How on God’s green earth are those two things equivalent? 😭 Don’t you guys get tired of trying to equate female sensuality with the behaviour of cruel males? Booo!

@Amahashi_ Never trust an influencer shilling products they're paid to shill.

Insinuating mental issues because you're too dumb to defend your classist double standards? Peak stupidity. Intelligence? 'Error 404: thoughts not found.' I bought the Mr Price skincare because the REVIEWS ARE VERY GOOD, coming from average black SA girls just like me. My crash out was mainly about how paid partnerships turned genuine hype into something untrustworthy. Then here comes the airhead train: 'Why Mr Price skincare? It's not supposed to be good.' That's classist af!!! The Woolies Glow Toner trended with good reviews, but others said it burnt their skin. No one questioned 'Why from a food store?' No brand shaming. Got passes because you guys regard W as a high class store. The stores that you deem low class get 'why there?' while others don't. Emphasis on store shaming over product failure. But next time please refrain from engaging in topics beyond your depths. Y'all are drowning and it's not cute

@luvrgworl Manifesting this so hard, wtf, she'd actually be perfect to play Betty Boop.

cute n silly betty boop movie w quinta brunson, let’s make it happen

@AnarchSoul @knifedog7 The way I struggled with the amount of S' and T's in Statists 😭 sounds like I'm trying to imitate the sound of static.

@knifedog7 As an anarchist, I want to live in a stateless world, so I've added statists to my hate list :)

The 10 things I hate the most: 1. Transphobes 2. Homophobes 3. Pedophiles 4. Sexists 5. Racists 6. Conservatives 7. Capitalists 8. Statists 9. Clergy 10. Rude people

Unrelated but there’s a website called Varsity Vibe that offers all SA students discounts @ MrP, HnM, Cotton on, Factorie, Refinery, Superbalist,MrD, KFC, H&M, The Fix, Puma, Typo, 🤭🤭Sorbet, Burger's King, Nando’s, Takealot etc Please Utilise It as Much as you can.❤️ Here’s the link to the website : varsityvibe.co.za/join?ref=NOLOW4

@uppitysouthy I am green with envy right now. I hope you had the best time, I'll live vicariously through you for now 😊💛

Muizenburg beach! I smoked a blunt then went for a swim in the ocean 🐬

@ZapLoaf @auntyowls @ABorlandFan88 @etherealabby @missus_wormy You are very welcome! Screw AI forever ✌🏻

@Charls_Heart @auntyowls @ABorlandFan88 @etherealabby @missus_wormy This is better than asking an AI Thanks 🔥

the quirky derp chungus-ification of female autism is the worst thing ever. it’s like how goth was sexualized and turned into a porn category. just gross.

@trottuman That's all I do 🤭

Normalise interacting with people you aren't moot with

@ZapLoaf @auntyowls @ABorlandFan88 @etherealabby @missus_wormy I looked for one identical to the one my mom always makes, I'd have to translate her recipe. This one is exactly the same as hers, except sometimes she'll add ham or bacon. Pardon my eagerness to share. Cheesy Savoury Zucchini Quick Bread share.google/uIkINrj92L7lEP…

@VeronicaHo27513 @f0220m Black people are still being oppressed on a global scale.

@f0220m Whatever happened hundreds of years before I was born is not my problem.

"white people need to show up for black people the way they show up to be entertained by black culture." oh Brooke Davis always dropping gems 👏🏾

@VeronicaHo27513 @spicebae_ This is rooted in your own racism and lack of empathy. If you're willing to write off an entire demographic of people based on a few interactions with a few rude people, you're prejudiced. That's not a valid reason, and this rhetoric needs to end.

@spicebae_ Sometimes, it’s hard to show up for a group of people that actually hate you. I’ve come face to face with it a lot in my life and I can tell you now….black people don’t “show up” for me. EVER. Respect is earned, not given freely.

@55mmbae I was literally looking for recommendations for black authors. I feel like the universe intervened, or my phone is fully just spying on me. Thank you so much! 💜

Black women authors you should be reading 🧵
