As a Nigerian woman from an average background, your backup plan cannot be marriage. It's like building a house in a water-logged land. It will sink. Fight tooth and nail to make something of yourself. Leave an imaginary man out of it.

A few years ago I was utterly exasperated. I used to wonder how seemingly functional adults were applying shower gel and body wash to their bodies, mistaking it for regular body cream and lotion.

I don’t wonder anymore.

The "invisible guest theory" is a 25-year-old psychology experiment with a TikTok rebrand, and the actual mechanism is more useful than the viral version.

Cornell ran this in 2000. Made students wear a Barry Manilow t-shirt into a room full of strangers. Students predicted 50% of the room noticed the shirt. Actual number: 23%. Less than half what they expected. The researchers called it the spotlight effect.

The mechanism is anchoring. Your brain starts with your own experience of the moment, which is extremely vivid and detailed because you're living it, and then tries to adjust for how much less other people are paying attention. The adjustment is always too small. You feel 100% of your own embarrassment and assume everyone else feels at least 60% of it. They feel about 15%.

But here's what the viral version leaves out. Gilovich ran a follow-up and found the effect works in BOTH directions. People also overestimate how much others notice their positive contributions. You think your clever joke landed with the whole room. It didn't. You think everyone saw you handle that tense moment well. They didn't. The spotlight shines equally on your wins and your failures, which means both are mostly invisible.

The real freedom isn't "nobody's judging you." The real freedom is that nobody's paying nearly as much attention as you think, to anything you do, good or bad. Once you internalize that, you stop performing entirely.

If you eat all this and three more courses and still aren’t full might I suggest deworming pills?

if you listen to just the way you are, locked out of heaven, 24k magic, and leave the door open- and think those are all the same... then you're deaf

Unfriendly reminder that if you start reading now, you won't be jealous when people post their book wrapped for 2026 😌

I've read 100 pages of a new book just lying in bed

Don't let bad belle kpai you. Read a book. Maybe you'll learn something.

There’s a war on literacy, critical thinking, and being habitually occupied 😭

You won’t read and you won’t let the people who read have peace. Are you under spells??

We need a separate society for the illiterates.

[John Attridge @John_Attridge]

Reading fiction absolutely does reveal important truths about the world. For instance, it allows you to know that you are a better person than someone who does not read fiction

[Mini Skirt Connoisseur😮‍💨 @chioma_mmeje]

If those books were truly helping you, you would have been balanced enough to know you sound foolish.

Better open fiction because you are the one who’s wasting your time.

[Jola @Jollz]

Explaining the value of reading fiction makes you (the explainer) look silly. Just keeps staring till the mumu gets uncomfortable. Why are you asking me why I like reading fiction? What is it to you anyway?

[Goodluck @higoodluck]

Yes ! Audiobooks don’t count, ebooks don’t count. Heck even actual books don’t count.
If the author is not reading it directly to you, you’ve not read anything !!

God be with you if the author is dead.

[Adéṣọlá P. Bépo @PenielBepo]

I feel like, as humans, we should all stand for something. People should know what to expect from you.
“Don’t try that with her, she won’t take it “
“You can give him the job, he’ll deliver.”
“If he says he’ll be there by 8 a.m., take his word for it.”
Don’t be an anyhow person.

[rosegold @tobibiggest]

“Undone” being the term for things in their natural state is actually not okay

[Symoné B. Beez @SymoneBeez]

This is why you can't take the job application process too personal never know what kind of weird rules the hiring manager has on the other side. Cast a wide net, network and get referrals.
