I hate the fact that I have to move my finger down to retweet instead of the previous format
@elonmusk needs to revert to the old design. I should be able to retweet a tweet in "one handed" mode.
@MisolaofJesus The British Computer Society officially retired and closed down the entire HEQ exam program globally. The final exam session took place in April 2026, and they are no longer registering new candidates or accepting project submissions.
That Pique's house with the sporting complex went for less than $20m
Why would somebody show you one plot of land and ask you for $500m and you pay? ๐๐๐๐

The system abroad has a way of wiring you into itself, whether you like it or not ๐
When I was preparing to move to ๐จ๐ฆCanada, I had already made up my mind that I would not start doing โsoft lifeโ immediately. I told myself, โOga, calm down. Manage your money first.โ
So before we even relocated, I bought my humble Nokia C22 Android phone. My plan was simple: use this phone for at least one year in Canada before thinking of upgrading or financing another phone. After all, phone na phone. As long as it calls and browses, wetin concern me? ๐
While researching before moving, plenty people kept saying: โBring an iPhone.โ โBring Samsung.โ โBring Google Pixel.โ โSome African phones no dey work well abroad.โ But one rare comment said Nokia works fine in Canada. As a loyal Nokia lover from way back, I said perfect. Problem solved.
Fast forward after landing. I was proudly using my Nokia C22 while my spouse came with a correct Samsung flagship phone ๐ญMy own mindset was:
โNo unnecessary spending until income starts entering.โ
Then, Canada telecom companies started their own gentle bullying.
First message:
โYour device may soon become incompatible with our network.โ I ignored them.
Second message:
โYour phone may downgrade to 3G soon. Calls and texts may delay.โ I still ignored them. Data was working. I said leave me alone abeg ๐ญ
Then the final boss message entered. They sent an email to our family account saying: โWe have detected an incompatible device on this account. From November, extra charges may apply if you continue using this phone.โ Ah!.
At that point, I knew: The system had finally defeated my โapian wayโ survival strategy ๐ญ๐
Luckily, around that same time, I had already gotten a job offer. So I just carried myself quietly to the phone store and signed up for a financed 2025 phone spread across two years. A, 2025, Pixel 10 Pro-XL, because of my photography hobby, I had used a used 2nd-generation Pixel that a friend sent me from Denmark in 2022, at a time I struggled to even buy a phone.
That was when it fully hit me: Once you enter this system, whether na phone, credit score, insurance, internet, taxes, subscriptionsโฆ everything slowly pulls you in ๐ You may think you are dodging the system.
The system is patiently waiting for you ๐
