You can mock Nigerian girls all you want for lacking communication skills, but the truth is that Nigerian society is generally hostile to honest conversation.

The more Nigerians you deal with, the more you notice a pattern: people avoid saying things directly. They deflect, suppress, and sidestep difficult discussions until, seemingly out of nowhere, there's an emotional outburst.

Many of our siblings, parents, lecturers, bosses, and peers exhibit this trait to varying degrees: avoid, deflect, avoid—then suddenly, get mad.

It’s such a perfect metaphor to have something that gives joy to tens of thousands get ruined by one Republican billionaire asshole

You cannot spend years breaking a child's spirit and then expect a few words in adulthood to repair what took years to destroy. You cannot teach a child to fear your footsteps, your voice, your moods, and your anger, then expect them to see you as a source of comfort later in life.

“My coming in front of the camera was an accident. I was a writer. They pressured me to come in front of the camera because I was making people laugh behind the camera.”

i’m at the movies and it’s truly annoying to see how much some trailers are just revealing the entire movie. it’s been happening for a while but it’s so jarring every time

There’s never been anything attractive about the suburbs for me because I don’t have an obsession with mowing the lawn and I’m not afraid of people and diversity. If I want to escape, I’ll go rent a place in the French countryside for a month or two.

to be watched and not be seen
what a world we live in

to be loud and not be heard
what a life we are given

to be touched and not be held
what a love we’ve been living

to be out and still locked in
what a strange way of being

I Love Boosters still doing A LOT of packed houses on both coasts, in the Midwest, and in the south.

SOME are just finding out about the movie for the 1st time. Awareness is growing.

The genre of the movie is undefinable, our box office story will also play by unorthodox rules.
