I am love ❤️.

Unpacking some of my wedding gifts, some odd 29 years later... Things were really good quality back then. I keep enjoying them more and more as I go along. I have a few more boxes to go through in the coming years.

@gitts Gituma, wishing all the healing you need and all the very best 💖.

It really concerns me how social media has slowly changed what it means to be a 'good' person. Before it was determined by your actions to your immediate community. You helped an old person or child cross the road, you shared a meal with someone, volunteered etc.

Now, we are in the age of 'morality of takes and opinions.' Which is very curatable. Because we are largely connected virtually, seeming good is more important than doing actual good.

I could contribute nothing to my immediate local community but will be termed a good person because of an opinion I have or identity I claim. I am a good person because, I have the appropriate flag, right political slogan, a social issue in a far off country that costs me nothing and...Tada!! I am one of the good ones.

Conniving people have noticed this. That morality can be worn like a digital dress and then be an a**hole to those around you. They have taken advantage it to devastating effect and it takes a lot of effort to believe their victims.

Anyway, can we just get back to the morality of action over that of opinion.

This happened to me last year at a Naivas in Eldi. A barcode of something I had in my handbag, and which I bought out of the country, triggered their tu security systems.

[Sholla Ard 🇰🇪 @sholard_mancity]

Naivas and Quickmart, there’s something strange happening at your stores that many Kenyans can relate to, but few talk about.

How does someone walk into your supermarket, go straight to pick milk, pay at the cashier, and then, on the way out, the theft alarm suddenly goes off?

Suddenly, everyone is looking at you.
Security stops you.
Your bags are searched and even humiliated.

And for a moment, you’re standing there trying to prove you’re not a thief.

Many Kenyans know that feeling.

That confusion.
That embarrassment.
That anger.

And what makes it worse is that in many cases, it’s not even because of anything taken from the supermarket.

It could be a book bought elsewhere.
Shoes bought online, e.g., at Jumia.
Earphones from China Square.

Yet the alarm still goes off, and you are the one left embarrassed.

So what exactly are these systems detecting? And what do you want Kenyans to wear when going to your supermarkets?

Because if items bought legally somewhere else can trigger your alarms, then innocent customers are being humiliated for no reason.

And supermarkets have CCTV.
You can verify what someone picked and paid for.

So why is the first response to search and embarrass the customer instead of checking first?

A lot of Kenyans have gone through this and kept quiet because it’s embarrassing.

But it keeps happening. Many are traumatized to the point that they even avoid certain stores.

This is not just about security.
It’s about dignity.

And customers deserve better.

[Daughter of the Soil @giobunei]

@Wordslinger__ @KenyaAirways In CBC are there any specified grades for aviation? Coz the grades for admission to pilot school haven't changed, C+ and pass in ENG, MATH, PHYC, GEOG. Therafter airlines like KQ can hire them once they get their CPLs.

[Daughter of the Soil @giobunei]

@Wordslinger__ Would.
