People who do GRWM to work have TIME, Real time. Every time I wake up for work, I have less than 30 mins to be ready, and every second is accounted for. The day I add "good morning guys" to my morning routine is the day I'm officially unemployed.

We don’t talk enough about how being a child free, single woman who makes a decent living is such a SUPERPOWER.
I can just wake up and decide I’m going to Paris, without thinking about how, what, who,when and why.

That tweet is probably projected pain - crying out loud to a deeper pain.
We go to about 5/6 years ago (2019/2020), she tweeted about how her mother takes care of so many kids which aren't hers but just unfortunate kids whose parents can't afford to take care of them. We underestimate what that does to the person's biological children and how much it takes away from them.
Watch her content at the village and there's always many kids there,which she spoke kindly with and to a great extent, with love. I do not expect such a person to author anti-conception tweets, so I would (nonchalantly) analyse the possible psychology that I can think of surrounding the situation.
Have your mother raise hundreds of kids made by irresponsible people who can't take care of them by themselves. You'd have that dormant anger and frustration about conception, which will leak out here and there, sometimes without noticing. It shifts your perspective about having children and becomes almost a trauma. The idea of having a child will trigger you because all you'll remember is your good-hearted mother who is burdened by kids she didn't make.
Your mother can't live a life you think she deserves, because every possible penny goes into food for the team - which is number 2 need on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. More pain is that the money you send her, for herself, is also spent in a way you feel deep down is unfair. Those children also become your responsibility.
It doesn't matter whether she's at the village and you're in town. She's living with that burden on a daily basis and she hotspots it to you everyday when you speak to her. You are kind of also dragged in this burden because you can't detach from your mother. Whenever you speak to her, you hear those responsibilities in the background. Whenever you want to see her, you have to make peace with seeing them too. It's like dating somebody with many many kids.
It gets tricky when you wanna have a child, and you think about your mother wanting to be with her grandchild. You can't take care of your kid the way you'd wish to, as that means you have to either discriminate and have your child enjoy things the other kids don't have, or buy for all the 10 kids in your mother's care, or let your kid not have fancy things and eat fancy food and just be like the rest of the crew. All those choices are undesirable.
That can be damaging to somebody. At times, there's nowhere to release that background anger since these are just innocent kids. The normalization of burdening people with responsibilities that aren't theirs especially when it comes to taking care of children they didn't make is also very common, which leads to our parents suffering and sacrificing their lives to take care of children made by whoever.
Social media has become the only place since I can't say it in my mother's face. Sometimes such can come out through shade or other ways. That doesn't mean the person hates kids. They can actually love kids but hate the idea of making kids you can't afford to take care of.
That tweet to me, just like the 2019/2020 tweet, is leaking pain. It's a valid projection, but we're more damaged today as a society. Wherever you express yourself nowadays, you're rubbing on somebody's fresh wound.
My professor used to say, ‘Everything is hard until it’s not.’ I didn’t understand it back then, but I understand it now. The beginning is always the hardest part, but with consistency, the difficulty gradually loses its grip.
There was a time when medical professionals stood at the very peak of society’s moral and ethical pyramid. Nurses carried an aura of discipline and compassion that could be felt from a distance. Doctors inspired confidence before a single word was spoken, before a single wound was examined. Such was the weight of their calling. https://t.co/POp0P8UD44
I'm not usually comfortable taking pictures with witnesses, but I'll make an exception today.
Gen Mkhwanazi, on behalf of families affected by drugs, communities ravaged by gun violence, and a country crippled by crime, I say THANK YOU 🙏 #AdHocCommittee"

Journalism vs State Security
We should understand not only how Journalism works but also how State Security works.
Firstly, we should clear the misconception that the Journalist was pushed out because of the question. That's a lie, colleagues. We all can see in the video. The security apparatus reacted to her movements.
The president was kind. She spoke to her and guided her that it was not time for press conference, so the opportunity to ask was not denied. It was just not the right time for questions of any sort. You can see even Security were calming her down to just listen, but she was just asking for her phone, which she was told she'll get it outside.
That was not right of her. Journalists mostly bully people, invade privacies and perimeters. It's part of their work, but also understand that other people have their work to do too, parameters, as well as that your aggression will not always be met with grace.
On security: never make funny movements around a president, especially not one that had misterious car accidents and smokes coming out of her car. To state security, you're a threat if you cross the perimeters. Some of you will one day die because of ignorance.
On security: even if you're searched, there are so many ways to kill a person. It's not always with traditional weapons like knives and guns. The world has advanced and state security cannot assume and undermine that a journalist is not trained somehow.
It can also be that the move can be seen as a test to see how State security operates and where the weaknesses are. Jemima may not be the killer, but she can be used to test security. Provoke and we study, even for 5 years. State security can be getting studied through numerous provocations and crossing parameters to see how security reacts, how fast, etc. That is how security would interpret her moves of trying to follow the president.
You need also to understand that state security aren't serving Netumbo Nandi Ndaitwah. They're serving the portfolio of President. They're trained, educated and are doing their job. They don't even need the President to tell them what to do. They make their own judgement and in fact they most likely instruct the president which is the safest way to move.
Let's not play around in the name of journalism. You don't have immunity to move around however you want around a president simply because you're a journalist.
Not chased out because of the question. It was because of her movements.
ACC is an independent organization, that was established in 2003… and in all its 22yrs of having open offices, 2025 became the year it’s said;
“This is our mandate, and we gonna live up to it fully”
What a wow. A woman really makes a house a home.
