If Mbappe leaves to any team. He’ll someday be wanting to join PSG back because i don’t think he’ll get the same love he gets from france. By that time PSG has 2 championships league and he still will have 0
After seeing Hon. Rebecca Kadaga’s post about what she called a “dragging party” for the newly elected Speaker of Parliament of Uganda Rt Hon. Jacob Oboth Oboth, I decided to research more about the practice. This is what I was able to find out.
Dragging a newly elected Speaker of Parliament to their chair is actually a symbolic parliamentary tradition derived from the British Westminster system. The ritual represents the Speaker’s initial reluctance to accept the position.
Historically, the Speaker’s role was risky because they were responsible for delivering Parliament’s messages and complaints to the King or Queen. If the monarch disliked the message, the Speaker could face severe punishment, sometimes even death. Because of this, newly elected Speakers would traditionally pretend to resist the appointment and be physically “dragged” to the chair by fellow lawmakers to show they were accepting the role under pressure rather than volunteering for it.
Today, the practice is purely ceremonial and serves as a lighthearted tribute to that history. Once elected, the Speaker is gently escorted or symbolically dragged to the Chair by fellow legislators to officially assume office.
The amount of men who are DONE with modern dating right now is insane. Not bitter. Not lonely. Just over it.
Men are walking away. Not because they’re broken. Not because they’re angry. Not because they can’t get women. Because they’re exhausted by the game. They’re done with low effort. Done with entitlement. Done with women who bring nothing but expect everything. Done dating apps. Done with chaos disguised as chemistry.
They’re done tolerating disrespect for access to seeks. Done pretending mediocre women are prizes. Done investing in people who don’t reciprocate. Done accepting treatment they’d never tolerate from anyone else. This isn’t bitterness. This clarity. This is men realizing that being alone is better than being drained. That peace bears companionship if companionship costs sanity.
They’re not lonely. They’re selective. They’re not giving up. They’re refusing to settle. They’re not broken. They’re done accepting broken women. Modern dating requires men to lower standards, ignore red flags, accept poor behaviour, and be grateful for scraps. Most men played that game for years. Now they’re walking away.
Not because they hate women. Because they’re exhausted value themselves more than modern women value them. And that self-respect means refusing to participate in a system designed to extract from them while giving nothing back. The amount of men checking out is unprecedented. And it’s not weakness. It’s wisdom. Just over it.
This kid walked right up to the Hollywood legend Sylvester Stallone and delivered the full Rocky speech in person. Pretty wholesome.

anyone with a good grasp of luganda can understand some shona, chichewa, and some ndebele

SIGNS OF A HIGHLY INTELLIGENT PERSON:
1. Talking to Themselves:
Average people often look for others to validate their thoughts.
Intelligent people can think through problems by talking to themselves, almost like holding a private meeting in their mind.
2. A Unique Sense of Humour:
Their jokes are often clever and layered.
Not everyone understands them because they rely on deeper thinking rather than simple humour.
3. Strong Observation Skills:
They notice details quickly and analyze situations fast.
A classic example of this trait is the fictional detective Sherlock Holmes.
4. Learning From the Past:
They don’t dwell on regret.
Instead of saying “I wish I hadn’t,” they focus on the lesson and move forward.
5. Open-Mindedness:
They listen when others speak, especially if there is value in what is being said.
They are less likely to be swayed by manipulation or empty rhetoric.
6. Limited Negativity:
They avoid unnecessary negativity.
Instead, they think through possible problems in advance and plan accordingly.
7. Determined, Not Stubborn:
They stand by their ideas but are willing to listen.
If communication doesn’t solve the issue, they simply walk away.
8. Comfort With Isolation:
They often enjoy quiet time alone, sometimes listening to instrumental music to focus and think clearly.
9. Managing Anxiety:
Many intelligent people experience some level of anxiety, but they learn how to manage it rather than letting it control them.
10. Intentional Loneliness:
Their solitude isn’t about sadness.
They spend time alone to reflect, think, and reconnect with themselves.
11. Personal Obsessions or Collections:
They often have a strong interest in something, whether it’s collecting items or deeply engaging in a particular hobby.
12. Strategic Reading:
Instead of reading everything word-for-word, they focus on the parts of books that contain the information they actually need.
Whatever idea that is in your head, don't ask anyone, just start. The faster you can validate it, the better.
It has never been so easy to validate ideas than now.
By validation I mean, building a small MVP, testing if users want it and if so, build, if not, pivot or move on to something new.
Kenyatta University is advancing medical device innovation in Africa!
Following the successful launch of our Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering in Medical Device Innovation (MDI) programme in January 2025, we hosted a productive courtesy call from the Invention Education (IvE) Project, supported by the Lemelson Foundation.
Acting Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Administration and Finance) Prof. Paul Okemo (representing Acting Vice-Chancellor Prof. John Okumu) received the delegation, including Ms. Maggie Flanagan (Senior Programme Officer, Lemelson Foundation) and Ms. Maryanne Muriuki (External Engagement Director, IvE Programme). Present from KU were Dr. Kenneth Iloka, Prof. Lucy Kathuri-Ogola, Dr. Susan Musembi, Dr. Peter Kamau, Dr. (Eng.) June Madete (Co-Principal Investigator, IvE Project), Dr. Gladys Mwangi, and Dr. (Eng.) Daniel Oyoo.
Key discussions centered on:
> Strengthening strategic collaboration
> Formalizing the partnership via MoU and MoA
> Expanding curricula
> Enhancing entrepreneurship pathways for MDI graduates
This partnership is building a robust talent pipeline in biomedical engineering and medical device innovation right here in Kenya.

You’ll never forget the people who watched you drown quietly. You only asked for a place to rest for one night and they went offline. That’s when God enrolled you in the school of solitude.
That night you slept outside because no one opened their gate... that was your graduation. Pain became your mentor.
Rock bottom is the strongest springboard to greater heights, if you don't forget the lessons.
