Happy Heroes Day

[Pascal M. Okorobe 🇺🇬 @Okorobe_PM]

New day, same struggle!
@MinofHealthUG a hungry, angry and disgruntled Doctor is a danger to the patients. Doctors are not slaves. Can you yourselves work for free for a whole year?

An attack on intern welfare is a direct threat to patient safety. Fatigued, underfunded, and unsupported interns cannot deliver the optimal care that Ugandan citizens deserve.
We call upon the @MinofHealthUG to fulfill its constitutional mandate to safeguard our intern doctors.

Experiencing a sharp pain when taking hot, cold, or sweet foods? You may be dealing with tooth sensitivity which is a common concern for many.
Consult your dentist for proper assessment and relief, and take the right steps to protect your smile.

Hold off on brushing after acidic food or drinks! Your saliva needs time to neutralize the acid and re-harden your enamel. Brushing too soon can actually wear it down. Wait 30-60 minutes to protect your smile. #OralHealth

FRIDAY NIGHTS: WHEN WE OWED YOU NOTHING!

There was a time in the 80s, when #Kampala weekends had a clear destination, and they still do - and if your stars aligned, your shoes pointed straight to Chez Joseph on Kimathi Avenue.

Opposite @KCCAUG , the place stood like a nightclub and a social sorting hat rolled into one. You didn’t just enter - you qualified. Money helped. Connections helped more. Confidence? That was your wildcard. This was the most popular hangout joint for the youth back then.

Inside, the formula was sacred: blue, red, yellow bulbs… a mirror ball spinning like it had secrets… and at the far end, the DJ box - where DJ Telematch (Mukiibi) conducted the night like a high priest of vinyl. When he dropped a track, it was no longer a dance floor -it was a declaration, like he did one night when he dropped 'Jack the Groove' by Raze.

But before all that glory and celebration0? Survival.

Because not all of us arrived fully funded. Some of us passed by the shadows of the old Ministry of Labour building - near that legendary old abandoned trench - now Workers House, that looked deep enough to swallow your future - where a quiet economist of the night sold K. Yes, Kasese (Waragi). A glass. Maybe a Fanta or a Mini would set you on the path to happiness. Add lime. Suddenly, the world made sense -and more importantly, you had courage capital.

Then came “Footsubishi” - our hybrid transport system. Meanwhile, the chosen few rolled in -borrowed or “temporarily reassigned” father’s car - packed like a matatu of ambition. Driver brings the ride. One friend brings the entrance fee. Another negotiates with the kanyama at the gate. Teamwork made the nightlife work.

Inside? Ah. You bought one beer at 11pm - and nursed it like an investment portfolio till 1am. Holding that bottle wasn’t thirst. It was status. You danced not because you had much - but because, for those hours, you lacked nothing.

Then the morning came, uninvited but inevitable.

You walked back up Kimathi Avenue, eyes red, spirit undefeated, past the early church goers, the saints at Christ the King Church. They stared. You stared back.

Under your breath: “Why are you looking at me?”

Their eyes said “Bambi.”
Yours replied -without words - Do I.O.U? Not today.

Because Friday night had cleared all debts.

At least until next weekend.

When injustice becomes normal, responsibility extends beyond the perpetrators. My thoughts in today's @DailyMonitor

[Maria Dubovikova @politblogme]

One of the most heartbreaking examples of nonverbal communication to emerge from Iran.
I cannot call this a mere propaganda piece. It is the unbearable truth, laid bare through the profound art of cinematography and animation.

He was the most powerful man on earth:

Marcus Aurelius.

He wrote "Meditations" to keep himself sane while ruling an empire. He never intended for it to be published.

Here are 8 of his best short ideas from one of the greatest stoics in history:
