You can be good at what you do. And You can be popular for it. Try to be both, but if you can't, it's better to be good.

Trent Alexander-Arnold plays right-back for Real Madrid. Started home and away against Manchester City. He won the Premier League and Champions League at right-back with Liverpool. He’s used to dealing with pressure. He’s taken a decisive tournament penalty. He’s played in the World Cup before. He has occasional defensive deficiencies but he brings a long-range passing skill that few possess. Are England that blessed at right-back that they don’t need Alexander-Arnold? That he isn’t amongst the best 30 outfield players available to Thomas Tuchel?

The Afroman Trial. -Cops raid Afromans house for bullshit reasons. -Steal money, break his door, fuck his house up. -No criminality found whatsoever, no charges at all pressed on Afroman. -Afroman spends the next 3 years making songs that make fun of all the officers involved by name, even using footage of the raid from his own CCTV cameras. -Songs had titles like "Randy Walters is a son of a bitch" and "Lick Em Low Lisa" accusing one of the officers of being a lesbian and sleeping with the other officers wives. -During the raid one officer looked like he was about to eat some lemon pound cake sitting on Afromans counter, Afroman made a whole album calling the officer fat. -The cops get mad and file a lawsuit for defamation. -Afroman turns up to court in a whole American flag suit. -Officers performatively mald and cry while listening to the songs really trying to oversell how badly the songs upset them. -One officer was suing because Afroman made a whole song about him saying he was fucking the officers wife. When the officer was asked if Afroman was really fucking his wife, he said "I don't know". Nuking his own case and establishing that there is a non-zero chance that Afroman might actually be fucking his wife. -As his only witness for the trial, Afroman brought a deputies EX FUCKING WIFE. -The jury ruled completely in favour of Afroman. This entire thing has been a great win for free speech and absolutely fucking hilarious.

Not all money in your bank account is taxable income... Court warns KRA. There is a company called Konchor Kid Limited. Their business is simple. - They collect money on behalf of clients through its bank accounts. - Pass it to the clients - Retain a commission of 0.2% Meaning, - For every 1 billion they collect, - They earn 2 million shillings. KRA audited them. Saw their bank accounts. And went nuts. - How can billionaires declare an income of 2 million only? KRA became even more dramatic. - They baptized the difference of 998 millions as UNDECLARED INCOME. Then issued a tax demand of 345m. Konchor Kid explained their business model to KRA. - Bro, this billions you see here is not our money. - We only earn 0.2% They even provided client agreements to prove it. But the KRA officers salivating to beat their targets could not hear any of it. Konchor Kid ran to court. The court looked at the case and shook its head. Court affirmed , - The company had fully explained its nature of business. - It had provided sufficient evidence. - KRA had no basis to ignore that. The court declared KRA’s actions were unfair, unreasonable and illegal. As such KRA lost. Lessons. - The govt is setting higher targets for KRA every year. - KRA staff are under insane pressure to beat these targets. - So, KEEP RECORDS. Records. Records. Records. Records are king in tax audits.

You can’t even give your sick nanny a break from work, yet you guys call your employers evil for not giving you menstrual leave.

I am at peace knowing that from the onset this scheme was structured to fail and I talked about it for so many days. President and CS Health brag about 29Million Registered Kenyans while they don’t say that it’s only 5Million who contribute to the fund.

There’s a Moroccan proverb about three bulls and a lion. The lion promises the brown and black bulls safety if they don’t interfere when he attacks and eats the white bull. They agree. But soon, the lion is once again hungry. He approaches the brown bull and promises him safety if he doesn’t interfere to protect the black bull. The brown bull agrees and the lion eats the black bull without opposition. Eventually the lion, hungry again, attacks the brown bull who now has no one to defend him. His last words are “I was eaten with the white bull.”

You have to strongly rebuke anyone that insists they know you better than you know yourself

@saitonne 🤣

I almost want to ask how much did that country pay to host and for the cup ? Cause its ridiculous how determined they are to declare a victory via email

Today I$rael tried to kill me in a targeted airstrike in southern Lebanon as I was reporting on was the targeting of bridges and the forced displacement of 1 million people, an ethnic cleansing operation on a larger scale than the Nakba I have absolutely no doubt that this was deliberate. Despite claims there were no warnings ahead of the strike and no notifications sent to the Lebanese Army who allowed us to film As we have seen in Gaza they want to silence journalists who document and report their war crimes It is the western powers who provide political and military support for I$rael, arming it to the teeth to carry out genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing here in Lebanon. They are not simply complicit, but active participants and should be held accountable for their actions. But if I$rael thinks today’s strike will silence us and keep us out of the field they are very, very mistaken

@Samdenno Interesting. What kind of discoveries?? @KenyaCopyright

@danaceda I found it disturbing that discoveries are not protected by the copyright laws. How do we clarify this?

@DjFita1 Thanks for joining! (Yes, only humans can own copyright)

@danaceda I’m glad the issue of AI owning copyright is adequately being addressed on this space

@pauloko2000 Interesting question for @KenyaCopyright team to consider!

@danaceda On fair use , can parody works be considered as legal,not infirngement ?
