Modern women obsession with "soft life" and "princess treatment" has made a whole generation of women completely blind to the brutal reality of what it actually takes for a man to provide that.
You are demanding a man be endlessly romantic, available 24/7, and constantly planning aesthetic dates, while he is literally in the trenches fighting a ruthless economy to build the very empire you want to rest in.
You cannot demand the spoils of war and then complain that the soldier is too tired to entertain you when he finally gets home. We want the absolute financial security of a conqueror, but we expect him to have the carefree personality and infinite free time of a golden retriever. A man cannot simultaneously be at peace and at war. If he is building your fortress, you have to give him the grace to be exhausted
What if the same place you scroll every day became the place you trade?
@baseapp isn’t just about conversations anymore.
It’s turning attention into opportunity.
Posts into positions.
Creators into traders.
This isn’t just another update.
It’s an evolution.
@base
I’ve been following a project titled "The New Vanguard" on @Artizen and I love what @enricodaveed is building because it reminds me that art doesn’t have to lose its soul to survive.

NYSC is not cruise.
A smart person knows this.
They use their NYSC to make their CV look better..
How...
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT SERVICE(CDS).
Some of you don't know that you can use your CDS activities as volunteering on your CV that's if you actually did something meaningful.
When you see fellow corpers trying to do projects.. they have a plan...a goal.
Some are targeting awards..
Some are targeting jobs.
Some want something to document for a scholarship they want to apply for.
You want to apply for a scholarship abroad to study adult education...
You are posted to a school..
You can talk to the community and organise classes for adults in that community who are interested..
Document it.
Now imagine applying for a programme under the Erastus-mundus or chevening scholarship that has to do with adult education..
You write in your statement of purpose how you organised classes for adults to help improve their literacy and then link it to one of the UN SDGs...
As a medical laboratory scientist, a nurse or doctor in a rural area..you can do outreaches during your service year..
You are a graduate of chemistry or microbiology with bias for research on the environment...
You can do a a chemical analysis of the soil or source of drinking water in that community..
You can do it in conjunction with other corpers in your field. Do it in form of a project work and keep it..
You can approach a private laboratory and talk to them about your plans and see if they can run the analysis for you at a discount..
Based on your findings, you can talk to the community about how to improve the situation. You can even bring the attention of the local government to it if the results are not too good..
Now imagine how good this will look on your CV when you are pitching for a scholarship?
I am not saying this will work..
I am just sharing ideas on the opportunities i see that fresh graduates can utilise to make their profile better.
This will enable us think outside the box.
It’s sad that in today’s world, society makes it seem normal to accept that you don’t owe anyone anything. The truth is that you do owe people to a certain degree and as do they, you.
For every help you are offered, every moment someone spent worried about you, every time they put your needs before theirs, every time they connected you to a life changing opportunity.
Because they also had the choice to not offer any help, to not be worried about you, to not put your needs before theirs, and to hoard every opportunity they get.
I think at the end of the day, anyone’s reason for doing anything, should always outweigh their need for external validation.
Show Dem Camp was one of the first collaborations I ever did as a new artist!
I’ll always miss the days we’d all meet up and vibe at the studio but I’m so grateful we’re still family. This album is stunning!!
Show Dem!!!!
Thank you for believing in me🕊️❤️@ShowDemCamp

I think we men need to talk more about sexual control amongst ourselves
There are habits a man must keep up if they want to be able to control their penile
- Don't watch porn. stop if you do. Seek help to stop or man up and just stop it if you're man enough
- Don't keep friends who always talk about sex, women, or materialism. there is a connect with high materialism & sexual anyhowness
- Quit or don't do drugs and alcohol. Drugs and alcohol will make you not think of reasonable things most times
- Read social rules and understand them. Rape is not just penetration. read & understand what it means
- Begin to put yourself in the shoes of women. If a stronger man rapes you from your anus, will you be happy? If a stronger man oppresses you, will you like it? See women's rape & oppression from that light too.
- Learn restrain. Restrain helps you build muscle for great habits. Stay sometimes and go vegan for a month. Stay sometimes and don't eat red meat for a month, etc etc. Or pick something you like and quit it for a month
- If you gamble, your ability to keep your emotions under check is in trouble. it may build you into a bad person.
Just remember, who you are is a cumulative.
Nobody is Just a good person.
A good person is a cumulative of many, so many good habits.
