The only reason you people are romanticising the idea of another global pandemic is because you don’t think the people that are going to die will be you and yours.

Foolish, short-sighted idiots.

You drink 8 glasses of water for clear skin and the only thing that got clearer is your pee. Your body already had enough water and just flushed the extra.

Your kidneys filter about 47 gallons of fluid a day. Around 350 water bottles worth. But only about half a gallon actually leaves as pee. The rest, 99% of it, goes right back into your blood. When you chug water past what your body needs, your kidneys don't reroute it to your face. They dump it. Clear pee is your kidneys saying "we're good, lose it."

A 2018 review from Charité University in Berlin looked at every published study on drinking water and skin. They found 216 papers. Only 6 had strong enough methods to count as real evidence. The conclusion: no solid proof that drinking more water improves your skin if you're already getting a normal amount.

One study that did find something (49 women in Portugal, 30 days, 2 extra liters daily) showed better skin moisture. But the gains came almost entirely from women who were barely drinking any water before the study started. If you were already drinking normally, the difference was tiny. Your body has a priority list for water: brain first, then heart, then kidneys. Skin gets whatever is left.

Researchers in Korea tested this head-to-head in 2024. One group drank extra water. The other just applied moisturizer. Moisturizer won. Skin dries out because moisture leaks outward through the surface. A $6 cream that seals that surface does more than 10 glasses of water your kidneys will flush by tonight.

I think the whole "water for skin" thing is a distraction from what the science says actually works. A trial published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that cutting sugar and processed carbs reduced acne. High-sugar diets raise your breakout risk by 20 to 30%. Skim milk is tied to acne too because it spikes a hormone that tells your oil glands to pump out more of the oily stuff that clogs pores.

The stuff your skin actually wants: fatty fish like salmon, zinc, vitamin A, vitamin C, and sunscreen. Not glass number eight. Your skin would rather you ate salmon and wore sunscreen.

First lecture of the semester.

Dr. Fashola is taking attendance.

He gets to a name “Tunde Aborisade” and calls it twice.

Nobody answers.

He marks it present both times.

Then he looks up at the class and says, very quietly:

"Row G. Back left corner. Don't sit there tomorrow."

Then he moves straight on.

No explanation.

Just continues down the register like he said nothing unusual at all.

We looked at each other.

Nobody spoke.

The seat in row G, back left corner, was already empty.

The Abayas I want, I cannot afford them. The Abayas I can afford, I don’t want them. Sigh

Give no second chances, we are fully aware of our actions and have considered the consequences beforehand and made a choice.

If after reading this and you know In your mind as a woman, no one can say this to you, just know you are the luckiest woman alive…

There is just a way your life will be going as a woman that certain talk or advice will not come to you…. That to me is an achievement
