For a while now, I've been juggling AI automation, creating AI videos/stories, and posting consistently across multiple platforms. In the process, I neglected my X account.
So, starting today (July 1), I'm challenging myself to post consistently on X, connect with more people, and document the journey.
Day 1
Here's what my dashboard looks like right now:

I'll be sharing my progress weekly... or maybe daily. 😅
Let's see where consistency takes me.

Good morning. Please remember that these two women and some kids are still in captivity. Kindly reshare if it gets to your timeline. It costs you $0.00💔🤦♂️
My wife gave birth yesterday.
Today, while we were filling out the paperwork for the birth certificate, I told her I wanted us to do a DNA test before I signed anything.
The smile disappeared from her face immediately.
She asked if I seriously thought she’d cheated on me.
I told her it wasn’t about accusing her of cheating. It was about certainty.
She said, “After everything we’ve been through the pregnancy, the doctor appointments, the sleepless nights you choose now to tell me you don’t trust me?”
I explained that women never have to wonder if a child is theirs. Men don’t have that same certainty, and a simple DNA test removes all doubt forever.
She burst into tears.
The nurses looked at me like I’d just committed a crime.
Her mother walked into the room a few minutes later, found out what happened, and completely lost it. She called me insecure, controlling, and said my wife should never forgive me for humiliating her right after giving birth.
My own parents had the exact opposite reaction.
My dad said every man should do a DNA test before signing a birth certificate because “trust isn’t proof.”
My mum agreed and said if hospitals made DNA testing mandatory at birth, nobody would have to feel personally accused because it would simply be standard procedure for everyone.
When I tried explaining that to my wife, she said that wasn’t the point.
She said if I truly trusted her, the thought of needing a DNA test would never have crossed my mind.
I told her trust and verification aren’t the same thing. We insure our cars even if we don’t expect to crash them. We wear seatbelts even if we trust our driving. To me, a DNA test is just another form of protection against the tiny chance that something could go wrong, whether it’s infidelity or even a rare hospital mix-up.
She said comparing our marriage to an insurance policy was one of the most insulting things I’d ever said.
Now she refuses to speak to me.
Her family thinks I’ve destroyed our marriage over paranoia.
My family thinks she’s overreacting and that if she has nothing to hide, taking the test should be no different than any other routine hospital procedure.
At this point, I’m honestly wondering if hospitals should just make DNA testing automatic at birth for every baby. That way, no husband has to ask, no wife feels singled out, and everyone leaves with complete certainty.
So… am I being unreasonable, or should DNA tests be mandatory before any birth certificate is signed?
