I wrote an essay about #Uganda-n #arts: what's been, what is, what could be; and my ambitious hope for our generation. Writing this essay challenged me in ways I didn't know it would. I hope it challenges and inspires other creative artists. Read, let me know your thoughts!

@Grounded510 “Depth over speed”, precisely. And yes, thinking is dwindling. Most users opine just to opine. Now, add the proliferation of visual ‘content’ and social media visibility (become-viral-at-all-costs) as a source of overnight social and even economic validation. It’s grim.

@BeingEdna In a world full of short clips and noise, Substack feels like a safe space for real thinking and deep writing. It’s rare to find platforms that value depth over speed. Do you also feel like real writing and critical thinking are disappearing from social media?

God, I love Substack. The writers are writing. The thinkers are thinking. The yearners are yearning. The teachers are teaching! A whole lot of intellectual hope in an era that threatens critical thought.

I am allergic to egg white. I land in Entebbe and wolf down not one but TWO rolexes before reaching home. I spend TWO weeks paying : first two days I throw up EVERYTHING I eat. Rest of the days my skin breaks out in these horrible boils I used to get as a kid - #MyselfToBlame

As more and more people use and misuse AI, skills like critical thinking, responsible innovation, philosophy, communication, are even more crucial. The gap is already widening between these skills before AI and after, so there is a real opportunity here.

We have a revolutionary obligation to defend Cuba. When Africa called during our fight for liberation, Cuba responded with it's soldiers and military arsenal. They shed their blood with our forefathers, they left Africa with no ounce of minerals, but some in flag drapped casket.

Am I cold, or have you facilitated the departure of my intentionally cultivated warmth, inevitably giving rise to the side of me that I have until this moment, been successfully taming?

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.
