Nobody talks about how scary it is to have big dreams when your current reality looks nothing like them.

[Lukas Not Podolski @OtitoNosike]

Big Mack, we both know why I don’t entirely agree with you on Pan-Africanism, or more specifically, with the way it is presented here. And the simple reason is agency. Your takes absolve the black man of almost every fault and place it entirely at the feet of the white man, and I refuse to accept that. Colonialism happened, I know. Neocolonialism is real, I agree. The interests of powerful countries in keeping African states weak and dependent are real. None of that, however, means we must pretend that every failure on this continent, or in Nigeria specifically, has a foreign hand behind it.

Is it the white man who caused Yahaya Bello to destroy the roads linking one community to another because he didn’t want the people there to vote for Natasha Akpoti? Was it the white man who caused the leadership of Kwara State to use containers—containers, Big Mack—as bridges? Was it the white man who made snakes swallow millions? Or governors celebrate road reconstructions, some of them literally spraying asphalt over debilitating roads and expecting their people to applaud? Is that also the white man’s fault?

I am an African, and I am proud to be one. But being proud of where I come from should not require me to become blind to the things we do wrong. Some of the behaviour of our own people is completely independent of the white man. How can a snake swallow millions? How can someone defecate into a gutter? How can someone deliberately demolish part of a road simply to remove the iron bars buried inside it? Is that also the white man’s fault?

At some point, we have to be honest with ourselves. The truth is that some of the failures we continually place at the feet of the white man are entirely ours. Emphasis on entirely. They are the products of our own choices, our own greed, our own corruption, our own wickedness and, sometimes, our own astonishing disregard for one another. We must own those failures before we can begin to fix them. Agency means accepting that we are not merely victims of history; we are also actors in the present. And until we learn to exercise that agency, we will keep blaming the white man for problems that, in many cases, only we have the power to solve.

A blockchain’s infrastructure is only as strong as the people helping secure and govern it.

That’s why @FourPillarsFP going live as an institutional validator on @injective is worth paying attention to.

This isn’t just another name joining the validator set.

Here’s why. 🧵

what do you have that you weren’t given?
what do you know that you weren’t taught?
humility is a favor to yourself.

I find it weird when people dimension a whole big drawing in scale 1:100 / 1:200. You should have partial plans at 1:50

[City! @dolapocarter]

You wey dey drive 2009 Corolla go dey fear to post video vibing to music in your car so them no go see you as broke when in reality you’re richer than 95% of Nigerians.

We set too much stupid standards for a poor country like ours

[Victor Odyssey 🧃 @VictorOdys]

Now this is a proper annotation of “pressure is a privilege.” Not whatever weird coercive arrangement you’ve got going on with that girl. 💀

[ROYZ @royzkingin]

What a privilege it is to be overwhelmed by an ambition of your own choosing.

"if your girl doesn't ask you for money, it's because she thinks you're broke."

omo, as long as she doesn't ask o. 😂

[Victor Odyssey 🧃 @VictorOdys]

It baffles me when I see posts like this and even worse when I see there are many others who resonate with the same idea. it's makes me wonder the kind of friends you guys keep and it's always makes the environment you grew up in too obvious.

[Tha One @_ThaLivestOne]

I learned you simply cannot be friends with ppl you have more than. And NO, not materialistic things. But, more morals, more values, more AURA…. Ppl will hate you for sh!t money can’t buy! You literally have to surround yourself with your kind.

[ຸ @fvckfemi_]

i think the love you receive from someone who knows how to be alone is the most sincere. a solitary soul loves u by choice and not out of need for company

[Ms.Ifss♡ @_ifssss]

some of you beg so aggressively that you’ve convinced yourselves that basic manners should be followed up with financial aid.

[snipes.art 👨🏽‍🎨 @_Sniip3rr]

The problem is you guys go on dates to make someone like you
You’re supposed to go on a date with someone that already likes you
