It's entirely senseless tbh. But if you lack the willpower and courage to see suicide through, you must do your utmost to try and make your life as less punishing as possible. You are already here, you lack the constitution for suicide, so live. A little easier than yesterday.

I wonder if we laid eggs like chicken and had to sit on them for 21 days to hatch if capitalism would give us 21 days +90days maternity leave or they would tell us to carry our eggs to work

I just finished reading the Seven Husbands of Evelyne Hugo and wueh. Adi nimelia kidogo. It addresses 2 things that I deeply resonated with;
1. The realities of being in relationships with men as an ambitious woman.
2. Radical acceptance of self. The good. The bad. And the ugly.
I have a lot more to say but I think it speaks to every reader in a different way. I think every woman should read it.

We've seen so much death & grief in this country last 3-4 years. We've watched so many parents & families cry for their children in courtrooms & funerals alike.

For me, how a country values life is the measure of a civilized & developed society. It's tragic that we are here.

They are uploading the Rigathi Gachagua judgment on the CTS, page by page, a page per day. Let us exercise patience. It is a mere 390 pages.

I met a schoolmate this week who is now a relief worker in northern Kenya.

He told me something fascinating; something that haunts me since then.

"Do you know how we measure severity of hunger in pastoral nomadic communities?

We count number of mothers who have died. The more mothers dying of hunger the greater the famine.

Among the pastoralists, the womenfolk are trained from infancy to repress hunger; while men are allowed to 'act on their hunger' by raiding a neighbours' cattle.

There is a piece of cloth women are given before marriage for tying their stomachs to gird themselves against hunger.

Girls and women are the last ones to eat - they only eat after the menfolk have finished eating.

Paradoxically, it is women who are least vulnerable to hunger by death. They are accustomed to extreme hunger and have devised various mechanisms for coping."

Wow !

One of my biggest fears is dating someone who will post me on social media, and then cheat on me. Making me a famous fool.

This guy told me he wants to have a daughter first because girls tend to be more caring and look after their siblings more. I know he meant no harm it's just interesting how females even before theyre born are expected to serve others. Even in childhood.

When Carey Francis joined AHS in 1940, he was met by a strike over sugar in tea, if I recall. He sent the boys home, told them they had to be caned to be readmitted. They refused. He sent them back home and they had to reapply for admission. Some boys were expelled.

Some years back, there was a report of an AHS student whose back was broken by bullying from fellow students. Matiang'i rushed to the school to sanitize the reputation as "prestigious, comfortable and nice."

And former students who try to sue the school for injuries they suffered there are taunted by alumni who tell them that they won't get far since AHS alumni dominate the lawyers and the judiciary.

So I don't know what great history that the alumni are talking about. Or maybe being bright doesn't include historical intelligence.
