Nigeria’s U-19 women’s cricket team just defeated South Africa and is heading into the semi-finals . Cricket in Nigeria is under-supported, but these girls are showing up and winning anyway. If you’re in Lagos, go support them live at TBS tomorrow. Let’s show up!

Since you do 9-5, you'll likely burn fuel at night mostly, say you use 5 litres and you burn on at least 3 nights out of 5 nights excluding weekends, a litre is 1300, in a month that's 78,000 Total so Far is at 193,000 You never send money home You never buy light You never buy new polo or Jean You never buy foodstuffs You go still save from inside Now imagine if your salary is 250,000 See, this isn't survival or striving, it's point blank suffering... #EndBadGovernment

I get sent a 7 gold video per week.

Tom Felton was 13 when they bleached his hair and handed him a decade inside the biggest movie franchise on the planet. By his mid-twenties he was parked at a dive bar in LA most nights, drinking pints before sundown with whiskey chasers. His agents, his managers, his girlfriend, his lawyer, they all showed up for an intervention. Sent him to a rehab facility in Malibu that cost $40,000 a month. He walked out after one day. He went through several more rounds over the next couple years. Then in 2021, he collapsed on live TV at a celebrity golf event and got carted off the course. He was 34. Emma Watson (Hermione in the original films) pushed him to be honest about all of it in his memoir. The book hit #1 on the New York Times list. In it, Felton wrote: “To this day I never know which version of myself I’m going to wake up to.” That’s the guy who just reached out to 14-year-old Lox Pratt, the kid cast as the new Draco Malfoy in HBO’s Harry Potter reboot. And he didn’t give him acting tips. He told Pratt “this is your journey,” then just gave the kid his phone number. In case he ever needs to talk. Radcliffe wrote a letter to the new Harry. Grint wrote one to the new Ron. All three original stars reached out. But i keep thinking about Felton’s version of this, because he’s the one who knows what the fame actually does to you when nobody’s watching. He’s 38 now and playing adult Draco on Broadway (literally 400 meters from Radcliffe’s own show, which is kind of wild). On a podcast this week he called the social media pressure these new kids will face “inconceivable.” When Felton filmed the originals, they shot on actual film. The mic boom guy was a 70-year-old rolling cigarettes between takes. No Twitter. No comment sections. No millions of people with opinions about a child’s performance in real time. The HBO series drops Christmas 2026. Seven seasons planned. A full decade of filming. Lox Pratt is the exact same age Felton was when all of this started for him. And the man who barely survived what comes after just handed the kid his number and said “I’m there.”

Really thought I’d be doing things like this mid twenties. Still in the teens. I’m grateful

And this is EXACTLY why we must acknowledge our privilege in life. It is NOT handouts and freebies, but exposure and knowledge. Stop saying you're not privileged... YOU ARE AND THEREFORE CANNOT RELATE!

Exposure is so underrated. There's Nigerian accounting undergrads who don't know the Big 4 exist.

It's right there!
