I had terrible dreams. Maybe I’m too judgemental. It’s insane how people treat me. Anyway I met this person at OCAD workshop called Simu. He agreed to do a video with me let me interview him about South Africa and Donald trump. Then after a few months he like resurfaced on the web keeping chatting me up. I blocked several people him included on WhatsApp. He like find me through my phone number. I have to block him again. I got feelings it’s about that video interview I took of him. Is it jealousy? Is it animosity? Why are people so hostile? Etc.
