One of my favorite quotes of all time is "you can't beat a man who refuses to stay down."

@_ema_nuel People tend to underestimate Aang as well as airbenders in general because they never fight to effect destruction. Aang never fought to kill and rarely fought to hurt. That's why people think almost anyone with a greater show of force could floor him.

Unfortunately, as you get older, you gradually become less interested in new music and keep going back to the old favorite songs you once loved.

@Osinachi_W Nas laid the blueprint with Rewind. And he did it as far back as 2001. He didn’t just rap backwards chronologically. He built an entire crime narrative that still made perfect sense in reverse, line by line. Cole's Disc 2 Track 2 is impressive. But Nas invented the play.

@youfoundchika Jcole did that though and did it while maintaining a single rhyme scheme

Nas' Rewind is the greatest storytelling rap song ever made. The song is constructed entirely in reverse chronology while remaining perfectly coherent and gripping. Anyone can rap. But to tell a story backwards with precision and clarity is a masterclass in lyrical craftsmanship.

The Taliban have a truly brilliant plan for Afghanistan’s women: ban them from education past primary level, forbid them from universities, then slam the door shut on medical, nursing, and midwifery training as of late 2024. All while insisting that only female doctors & nurses can treat female patients, because decency and Islamic propriety demand strict gender segregation in healthcare. Genius, really. What better way to “protect” women than to ensure that, within a few short years, there will be virtually no qualified Afghan women left to provide the very care their own rules require? Male doctors cannot properly examine or treat women without risking violation of those same modesty rules and women often refuse or cannot access male providers anyway due to chaperone requirements and cultural barriers. So the Taliban have engineered a perfect catch-22: no male care allowed in practice and now no new female providers being trained either. Existing female healthcare workers are ageing out, burning out, or fleeing the country if they can. Current female medical students were turfed out mid-training. Midwifery and nursing programmes, already scarce, are now closed entirely. The predictable result? Skyrocketing maternal mortality, untreated gynaecological conditions, women dying in childbirth or from preventable complications because no female professional is available nearby and rural areas turning into death traps for half the population. Yet the Taliban still claim this is all for women’s honour and protection. One might almost admire the sheer audacity of the hypocrisy, were it not costing thousands of lives. They have decided that female illiteracy, poverty and death are preferable to the horror of a woman learning how to read, work, or save another woman’s life. It is not merely cruel, it is spectacularly self-defeating lunacy dressed up as piety. The rest of the world watches, issues statements, and occasionally wrings its hands, while Afghan women pay the price for this masterclass in regressive logic. The Taliban really are as stupid as they look.

@DStvNg @DStv_Ghana Hello. Your DM is not open. I'm having an issue with my DStv.

#afcon2025 checked in. @dstv_ghana, you’re welcome to join the watch party 👋🏾📺 #afconfamilymeets

I start typing something about the state of this country and I don't even know where to start from or end. Has there ever been a more useless, tone-deaf, and incompetent government in modern-day democracy than Tinubu's government? This is diabolical!

Osimhen was like "sorry I missed one goal, please take two."

Damn.

metaphorically, i'm the man but literally i don't know what i'd do Twenty One Pilots —Ride

Faith.

@MTNNG why are you guys stealing from me?

50 push-ups for every indiscretion.

“O wow! So sorry about that; hopefully you get that fixed soon. Anyway glad to know you're okay, you had me worried a bit when I didn't hear from you for 2 days”

She will not have the opportunity

Either way we crash like water.
