So as the host why didn’t you get both of you food so by the time she arrives you can both eat? I’m so confused. He keeps saying my food. I’m not even talking from a gender space. You are hosting her. Feed her and yourself.

Normalize texting first to ask if you can call (unless it’s an emergency)
Some of us have anxiety & phonecalls are a trigger.Some of us need readiness & consent to talk to people,even friends or fam. Actually a thing.

I was today years old when I learned that there is a gender-neutral honorific and it is Mx. Even being non-binary and being queer we still learn. The pain of being forced to tick ‘Ms’ on stuff is unreal. I am Mx Thishiwe Ziqubu. I prefer the pronunciation ‘em-eks’. 🙌🏾

I’ve written every day since I was 8. Even if it’s a paragraph, I write. I meditate and do breath work as often as I can - even when I’m not cast in anything I do drama work. & then knock on doors till my fists bleed. When no one will open, I try to create myself. I pray, phahla.

Hi everyone. Please don’t share your concepts with producers unless you are asked to. Initiate the conversation on email without sending your story and if you are invited to share your synopsis, only then go ahead. This protects you as well as the producers. ❤️ In Love and Light
