~ Can’t explain it, but I really hate that, as a people, we have made everything about money. We worship money too much in Nigeria.

It’s disgusting.

Some content you just can’t see me open. There’s nothing the eazi dude and his wife are saying that I have any interest in

The kindest thing literature does is remind you that your peculiar little feelings have always existed. Someone, in some century, was equally confused by love, bored by society, tired of performing, and hungry for meaning.

You're a great man, don't reduce yourself to the status of a monkey by masturbating.

[Eni Adeoluwa @Enioluwa]

I read novels for entertainment. I’m not trying to memorise anything, and once I put the book down, most of the details fade away.😅

Ask me what happened a day later, and there’s a good chance I won’t remember. But while I’m reading it, I’m completely immersed; that enjoyment is what matters to me.

Everyone when you start doing what’s best for you instead of what’s convenient for them.

[Wholesome Side of 𝕏 @itsme_urstruly]

I love people who are intellectually omnivorous.

The kind who can discuss folklore, black holes, bird migration, poetry, and grocery store pricing in a single conversation without getting lost.

doomscrolling on twitter feels so much more productive than doomscrolling on tiktok bc it’s like i’m basically reading

[uniq @ethrealuniq]

i hate how social media makes people forget that life has stages. it's normal to be broke, to have broke friends or partners and yes it's even normal to be unemployed at times. these are phases we all go through.

some people are lucky enough to find good jobs at a young age and afford a certain lifestyle. others take longer and that's perfectly okay. we need to stop comparing ourselves and start accepting our journey. i just want all of us to be at peace with where we are in life while still working and striving for better.

@Wizarab10 @adexken Kinda reminds me of this quote by John Adams;
“I must study politics and war, that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics, geography and agriculture, in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, tapestry, and porcelain.”

[Deborah Chioma Adewale @DebbieAdewale16]

You cannnot carry your hair like this in Nigerian universities anymore, they'll say you look unkempt. We regressed so badly.

[Mofiyinfoluwa Odubanke. @__mofiyinfoluwa]

i remain absolutely stunned by the degree of perseverance needed to build a meaningful life

[Cowrywise @cowrywise]

A windfall is not automatically wealth. It only becomes wealth when it starts protecting you, paying you, and improving your ability to earn.

If you somehow find yourself with ₦20M, ₦100M, ₦1.4B or any amount of money you've never received as a lump sum before, your job is simple:

Make sure no one in your bloodline ever has to ask this question again.

Do not just spend it. Convert it into a system.

Here's how to think about it🧵

[sc @sxdiqcarter_]

I’ll keep saying it, a lot of you need to decenter that Instagram lavish way of life, so you can start thinking like normal humans.
You are a Nigerian , living in Nigeria, no special
talent or skill , fuel is 1300+, rent is skyrocketing everywhere, minimum wage is less than 100k. Trust me you are closer to being homeless than driving that 2025 gle.

[Merriam-Webster @MerriamWebster]

You are perfect.

[VEE. @veeiye]

I have no point to prove.
I just want to live a good life.

My heart to Niniola, the finality of death is one of the hardest things for we humans to wrap our mind around.
