Attended a beautiful art exhibition at Nairobi Gallery by Stan Lusega.
His work is inspirational and my favourite piece is titled "Under Construction".
Tribute to My Grandmother
It is with profound sadness that I pen this tribute to a woman who shaped our lives in ways no one else could. Our grandmother lived a long and beautiful life, imparting timeless values that no amount of money can buy; kindness, generosity, love, care, and humility.
I remain eternally grateful for the gift of education she made possible; it is the weapon I will carry forward to navigate the world in her absence. Through her countless stories, she opened the door to our larger extended family and taught us strength and resilience in the face of difficulty. She exemplified what excellent parenting truly means; a standard against which all others will be measured.
Your legacy will forever live in our hearts. We will guard it jealously and pass it on to our children and generations to come.
Thank you, Grandma. May your soul rest in perfect peace.
Bob Mueller was one of the finest directors in the history of the FBI, transforming the bureau after 9/11 and saving countless lives. But it was his relentless commitment to the rule of law and his unwavering belief in our bedrock values that made him one of the most respected public servants of our time. Michelle and I send our condolences to Bob’s family, and everyone who knew and admired him.
I got this statue of Barack Obama for my Dad a couple months before he died.
He was suffering from cancer and immobile. He loved the Obamas, just the sound of Barack's voice calmed him.
Dad placed it on the table in front of his face. He looked at Obama constantly in his last weeks and hours alive as his condition worsened.
He said during his darkest moments at night Obama's face calmed him.
So it's very special to me. It's on my bedside table.

I have been an X Premium Plus subscriber since September 2024.
I was verified in June 2021.
I have 2.3 million followers and I would like to share an observation I have noted here on X.
I know this post will be deboosted.
In recent months on X, there have been growing complaints from African users and creators about reduced post visibility and uneven treatment, particularly over the past few months leading up to early 2026.
Africans on X have their posts deboosted and denied visibility.
Probably, it could be algorithmic manipulation that prioritises "nonsensical" or low-value content (like rage bait, low-IQ comics or trivial topics) for African audiences while suppressing more intellectual or substantive discussions from Africans.
Non-Africans' (especially Americans') intellectual content and viral political posts flood African timelines, but the reverse doesn't happen. This is the deprioritization of African creators on X.
A bigger flashpoint has been X's creator monetisation program, where many African creators reported receiving little to no payments in the January 2026 payout cycle despite reporting considerable engagement.
Every hour, I receive 3 or 4 of these OnlyFans slop in my DM yet when my followers DM me, their messages bounce or remain undelivered.
When I asked @X why Africans are being pushed to the bottom of the barrel here on X, I was told,
• Africans use bots and spam to cheat the algorithm.
• Africans don't have "interesting" information that generates engagement.
• Only 1% of Africans on X are verified, therefore, less prioritisation.
I find these excuses to be flimsy and bordering on deprioritization of Africans on X.
X is a global platform, and it should treat Africans the way it treats the rest.
@elonmusk and @nikitabier should look into this.

"Both the longest-lived and the earliest to die suffer the same loss. It is only the present moment of which either stands to be deprived: and if indeed this is all he has, he cannot lose what he does not have."

If I could send my 18 year old self a message, it would have three parts:
1. Prestige is often mistaken. Follow curiosity instead.
2. There's no way to avoid hard work. It's not sufficient, but it is necessary.
3. Don't take your parents for granted.
Excuse me @Safaricom_Care what is happening to the minutes that I had on postpay? I had more than 20,000 minutes, how do I have 71 minutes left? Where have my minutes disappeared to?
