I love the confidence of whoever wrote the script for all these Made in China tiktoks. They're really gonna undo hundreds of years of brand building with this line, "Close your eyes...imagine your luxury item says Made in China instead of Made in Europe, does it feel cheaper?"

Gladiator II and the Roman empire is now my actual Roman empire 😣😖

Unbelievable, but revealing. The Francophone African nations in the CFA are a joke: Translated from French: I translate the final communiqué of the extraordinary session of the conference of heads of state of CEMAC into easy French: 👇🏽 Guys, our CFA monetary situation has become untenable. We have invited the local French authorities, and asked the highest authorities of the IMF and the World Bank for Africa to be there to tell them that our situation is really not going well. Do we devalue, or do we change the parity to have a floating exchange rate? They just told us that it depends on us. We need to know what we want, but in the meantime, they ask us: - to stop running too many budget deficits, and therefore spending money that we don't have; - to stop selling government bonds and treasury bills to our banking system, because we will expose the banks to sovereign risk; - to demand that our international raw materials exporters repatriate the foreign currency they obtain because it is this currency that is lacking today; - to insist on the Fund that they have committed to setting up for the repair of mining sites that have been destroyed. We will put this money in an escrow account, perhaps to protect ourselves, and then in the meantime, we will think about what we want, and when we know, we will let them know and then they will help us do it. - to make available to them, without cheating, the official budgetary statistics, and then they will see with us to “help” us get out of there. Otherwise, it's really hard! We have to go somewhere, but as we ourselves don't know where yet, here is the advice they gave us. This is what the final communiqué says without diplomatic and administrative verbiage to confuse people. The full communiqué is available in my Telegram channel. t.me/ladamedesochi/…… I will reserve the explanations about the Fund and what insiders will do as a result of this for my subscribers on X/Twitter. Finally, can someone explain to me what the big red riding hood is doing in the photo and even in the room at a CEMAC meeting?

Please stop advertising this app. It doesn't work, it never has, and the way you advertise it everywhere makes us expect it to work. Please just help us and take down the misleading claims, it's costly how you take us for granted because you're some sort of monopoly.

The real innovators and problem-solvers of our economy are in the weave and wig business 💪🏾

You're never fully dressed without a pen!

Never have I ever adulting edition, where you say amounts you've never seen on a water bill and see if anyone puts down a finger 😀

@Opiaiya He's using something near-sacred to millenials to make an emotional connection, establish familiarity/ friendliness and gain instant acceptability for his message. It's brilliant. But still, it too fits nicely in crazy.

President @BarackObama has made it easier to follow this campaign season which has mostly been filled with crazy.

@mahiribooks @JrTwinamatsiko @RuthKemirembe1 I've used their concierge service before 🙋🏾‍♀️ it's affordable and faster/more reliable than ordering on Amazon

@JrTwinamatsiko @RuthKemirembe1 Following closely, we’re always glad to receive feedback 💪🏾 We will share though that our concierge service is where our typical nuanced readers order, given the cost and volumes required for certain titles.

Y'all readers, where do you buy your books? I can boldly state that the best 10 books across all genres of the last four years are not in Uganda's bookshops 🤦‍♂️ Oba we're all reading Graham Green, Sun Tzu and that 60's thesis on Fanon?

Luganda gospel songs hit different. And yes, I mean the kadongo kamu but-add-a-choir type of music.

Jazz events in Kampala = posers and mid music. 'Meh' overall.

*Highly* recommend! One of my sisters turned me on to their body lotion and I can proudly say I'm currently using their foaming face wash, face fluid and hand cream as well. I love it when local brands get it right, it makes me feel like we're all winners!

Chai Garden Tea over Kericho Gold any day!

Guys, I tried this, and a few hours later I'm here writing apologies. Don't be like me. Keep it professional 😭

I'm giving the veneer of professionalism another like 5 minutes, but after that I'm going primal. Like the no-nosence Ugandan woman that I am 💅🏾

Seriously, leadership is different from politics. Everything I know about politics I learned from the corporate world. But leadership? Everything I know about that I learned from the church world. It's because leadership is spiritual y'all. The weight of it is other-wordly.
