One night. Just after lockdown, I got very bored. It was like 11 pm.
So I got dressed in a tee and tracks. Put my running shoes on and started walking. While listening to an audiobook.
I walked from Maitama into Wuse 2. I really enjoy walking. Anyway when I hit that Paygreens
I unknowingly ate grilled crocodile riblets. Went back for more cause it was too sweet. I thought it was chicken, only for me to see crocodile. We move sha.😭😭😭😭
I cannot begin to imagine the pain of the Palestinians - they are collecting what they can find of their families in bags, they are digging for each other in rubble, they are adopting children left alone in this world, they are taking time to save animals and continue to
We're watching an Israeli genocide of Gaza.
1⃣ Killed 1500 Palestinians, 450 children, 248 women (and counting)
2⃣ Cut off food, water, electricity to Gaza. Without electricity, phones aren't charged, Palestinians can't record, & Israel can commit genocide in peace.
3⃣ Demands "evacuation" of over 1 million Gazans from the North to South Gaza, while bombing them along the way. This is cover for an impending bombardment and potential ground invasion.
4⃣ Dehumanization of Palestinians by the Western PR machine & media, effectively easing the way for genocide
5⃣ Killing journalists (8 so far) reporting on Israeli crimes, including @Reuters' Issam Abdullah today
6⃣ Targeting hospitals and densely-populated areas with white phosphorous, a chemical weapon
This is the history of genocide you read about in textbooks. God is watching. Be on the right side of history.
To the suddenly concerned & praying:
Our Palestinian casualties are always your footnotes. The daily humiliation of occupation ignored. The aggression by settlers and soldiers alike on holy sites and souls. The annihilation of entire families that follows. The devastation of whatever scraps remain in the open air prison of Gaza. Unsustainable & inhumane. So if you’re waking up to a sudden interest in the region and want to know what’s been happening, dig a bit deeper than 2 weeks and try to read beyond the headlines of a media that has been dehumanizing us for decades.
BRICS is so Pareto compliant. When you look at the stats, it’s just a bilateral association of 2 heavyweights, with 2 okay friends and 1 poor friend pretending to be rich because they hang with rich people.
I saw a Dua earlier, i love it soo much i want to wish it on everyone one reading this right now “ May the resources you need to do life with ease be at your disposal and may Allah continue to ease your affairs “ Ameen.. Eid Mubarak 🤍
