Potential is like clay. Without direction and consistent effort, it’s just a lump of dirt. @nwavemagazine

Everyone wants someone to be obsessed with them - until they’re jumping over your garden fence to steal your clothes off the washing line.

I’d like a healthy amount of romantic interest please.

[- Adé @_Xuest]

@Urfv_shammy As someone who has had a stalker; I promise you don’t want someone to actually be obsessed with you.

@faesuwa My beloved. My heart. My angel. The one who’s smile melts away my worries. The one who’s light teaches the morning where to start and end.

@LordCrypto_ @Movie_Icon It’s crazy that the people with training and lethal weapons are allowed to be scared. But the unarmed child who doesn’t understand what’s going on - is expected to remain calm?

There no logic in that.

Only time I’ve finished a half in more than 2hrs was the time I literally almost died from dehydration on the course.

Finished in 2:18:00.

My average is 1:40:00

Pb - 1:35:43

Trying to go sub 90mins before the year ends.

@kalakirwan Sub 2hrs?

A lot of women don’t see men as human tbh.

I think that’s why some of them call for male babies to be killed or locked in prison until they can earn human treatment.

Just gotta pretend those women don’t exist and continue with life.

[- Adé @_Xuest]

When women look at you and linger…what does that mean?

My instinct is always to assume the most neutral intentions possible at the time.

[- Adé @_Xuest]

In a generation where desire is almost always communicated through lust or lust-adjacent behaviour; it’s gets very lonely if you don’t naturally feel comfortable doing that.

My desire looks more like curiosity than lust, but apparently that makes me boring.

@ronokojie Praise kink in the office is an interesting choice

Singapore has no minerals. Japan was bombed to rubble in 1945. Vietnam was at war for decades. All three built cities with parks, public squares, functional public transport, and green urban spaces that serve their people.

Walk through Accra, Lagos, Nairobi, Douala, or Kinshasa and find somewhere to sit that is not a shop, a bar, or a church. You will not find it.

These cities sit inside some of the most fertile, green, tropical land on earth. And somehow every trace of it was designed out of the urban experience. No parks. No shade. No public squares. Nowhere a person can simply exist without spending money.

The geopolitics argument runs out when you look at who recovered from worse and built better. We are collectively and embarrassingly disorganized and we need to start saying that out loud.

Change does not start with governments. It starts with enough people refusing to accept this as normal. Share this if you agree. Talk about it. Demand better from your city.

@justvuyi_ Can’t let your social connection be streamlined into just one individual.

Friends and family must be part of the equation for a truly healthy relationship.

@present_malone @_benjvmins_ Because wisdom is not a function of aging but of considered and intentional self directed cognitive maturity.

Translation: being old isn’t the same as being correct.

@dxnixrl @hawillisdc @aChildOf2Worlds I tried just not taking things seriously, but sometimes it’s a trap.

But taking everything seriously is also a horrible experience.

12 stitches in my knee.

Dr said I can never wear shorts again. 😢

[- Adé @_Xuest]

@Hannah__O As in.

Kinda feel like the guy who already graduated but the only bar in town is a student union bar.

[- Adé @_Xuest]

@femiiiszn @sijisaid Those things are inherent threats to a capitalist economic system so….don’t hold your breath.

[- Adé @_Xuest]

@jvcx213 @aChildOf2Worlds You can be in love and immature at the same time.

You can live deeply and be unpractised in the correct ways to show up.

Doesn’t mean the live was fake, just means the love wasn’t ripe.
