I understand them like mad. Are you okay? Hosting a party ke? That co-worker is a hero in my books. Kai
I once had bedbug infestation at my former apartment. Nothing too much, just one here and there and I was worried it would multiple quickly
I confided in a coworker about it. Oddly enough, everything she told me to do worked well.
The following weekend was my birthday and I told everyone during staff briefing that I'd like to host them for a parlor party.
No one showed up from work.
Not a single person!
Not even the few ones I assumed were friends. Just excuses here and there which I understood
The Monday after my birthday, our boss apologized for not showing up at my party and it was because someone had hinted her about the bedbug issues.
Apparently, the lady I confided in had told everyone that I had bedbugs in my house and it was so much that their homes too might get infested if they attended my party.
The knowledge of people whispering behind me about it hunted me for weeks!
It wasn’t something much but she made a big deal out of it so much that they avoided me at work.
Omo, I learnt a very hard and painful lesson that time.

I totally disagree with this argument.
Corruption undermines everything! Almost every major problem we have in Nigeria is either caused or made significantly worse by corruption.
If we ask you how to build $800 billion economy, the answer would probably be to increase the productivity of our citizens. How do we do that? By investing in quality education and building a skilled workforce. But how do we achieve that when corrupt politicians and public servants are busy stealing the money meant for our schools, with little or no consequences?
You'd probably also say we need to generate more electricity. But just recently, the president had to order the clearance of grid infrastructure materials that had been stuck at the ports for 20 fucking years. Why???
There's no amount of patriotism, vision or passion that can make up for the billions stolen, misappropriated and wasted by the very people entrusted with managing our resources.
We cannot keep talking about improving productivity, education, healthcare, infrastructure and economic growth without confronting the corruption that continuously undermines our ability to achieve any of them.
Yup, Whilst corruption is a problem, it is not even top 5 of Nigeria's problems, any leadership in Nigeria that makes corruption a central issue for its campaign or rule will just chase shadows and waste everyone's time. Nigeria's central problem is a revenue problem, the country is just too poor for the kind of life we aspire for.
Our net budget is barely $40B, which is wholly inadequate and unacceptable for a nation of 240 million people. Nigeria needs a leadership that can grow the pie, to have a semblance of stability, we need a GDP of at least $800B, and a Tax:gdp of 15%, that will put government annual revenue from just taxation at at least $100B, we've wasted decades chasing shadows and spending what ought to be our seeds on ineffectual subsidies that only bred corruption.

Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026).

According to Haley, everything is fine in Gaza, the IDF is the most moral army in the world and Israel is America's closest ally, so nothing bad would happen to her

Insane way to end a sentence
Charlie Villanueva says a white player has never been the best player in the NBA.
“When was the last time a white player was single-handedly the best player? I love white people. My first nut was with a white girl, so why would I be racist? I’m not racist.”

Charlie Villanueva did not say a white player has never been the best in the NBA or make the quoted remarks. On the To The Baha podcast, he said he did not think a white dude could be the face of the league because "it's a Black league right?"
