Yardmas might not have a lot of sponsors but the overall experience is sooo much more valuable than stuffed goodie bags.

I really loved that Coca Cola activation on Lady Musgrave Rd with the mirrors today Brilliant idea!

Had to leave Machel 😭 how late do they plan to bring him on??? If his voice is gone just mek him rest and bring him a Beach Fete tommorow instead 🤷🏾‍♀️

Another year with my Jamaica Carnival paree. The long wait as the bands were late took some of the vibes out of the day, but give thanks we get to add another year together, building memories.

The place develop so much, I forgot RIO used to keep after carnival right infront of Devon House.

These bands and promoters keep sleeping on Nadia and the other female soca artistes. A male artiste will have one hit song for the season and he's here. The other songs he has nobody knows but consistent Nadia can't be here..

Unless it was made abundantly clear before purchasing that you can’t attend jouvert without your shirt, you cannot legally turn back a paying customer who doesn’t wear the event shirt.

A student today at my elite university admitted to me today that she took a class so she could work on reading for more than 20 minutes at a time. She can't read. She mainly skims and summarizes, she says and still gets A's. This student is, by professional standards, illiterate. Gonna have high GPA when she graduates. This conversation was had after 6 of 22 students dropped my course because the maximum reading per week in one week was over 100 pages. What people aren't grasping is that this is literally *dangerous*. These people are going to be come doctors, engineers, etc. They are - by any metric - vastly less capable than prior generations. These effects are cumulative over a lifetime. This grade inflation is part of the problem, but not even close to the entirety. And the problem obviously starts in K-12. Students don't know history because, you can't actually become historically literate on the advice of 'never assign more than 30 pages a week'. You can't develop any of the skills that came with literacy. This is, quite honestly, a civilizational catastrophe.
