Imagine letting some tribal bigot online gaslight you that whatever your grand parents, parents & community told you about their Mau Mau experience is false. Wameita Mau Mau story za Jana.

If you were there at that time it would be 1801
Replying to @Mwendefrey
Mau Mau killed 1800 Africans and only 36 settlers. Put that into ratio if you understand basic mathematics. Quite a 'resistance' it was.

TW: mentions of rape. (Also with these cuckold fantasies the cheating spouse is always assumed to be a willing party. When the reality of it is, it's more likely for a boss to exploit the power dynamic to rape their employees. )
Cuckold fantasy aside. Y'all have never worked in cooperate huh? It sounds like y'all experience of the cooperate world doesn't go beyond Netflix. Do you know how draining that shit is? The hotel, flight etc is to make up for them depleting your life force& crushing your soul.

What pattern? What history? What is the gender of the person on State House making our lives a living hell? What is the gender of the majority of the political class crippling this country? Horrific compared to what, the utopia that is rn?
Replying to @SophieOrenge
The pattern is horrible. The history of women led counties are horrific. Gladys Panga is giving us PTSDs here in Homa Bay. Wadagi.

I would argue there is no line. And that anonymity gives you the freedom to be who you are at your core.
As much as Twitter seems to provide people with this pseudo anonymity, I’ll always hold myself to a certain standard. There’s a thin line between the kind of person you are online and the person you are in real life. I refuse to allow this app to turn me into someone I wouldn’t/

Idk what the additional amount distributed to the Black and PoC at his firm... What does this do exactly? Charge him more, sure but he's still walking around being hateful & causing harm. They did even check him on his racism. It's very masturbatory approach being anti-racism.
Racism is a very expensive trait. It can cost you. If you're racist you pay triple.

Smol smol edit: Of the 250,000 teen pregnancies in Kenya majority are evidence of statutory rape by adult men.
A reminder that 250,000 teen girls are impregnated every year in Kenya (mostly by adult men) 😰

I mean, did she lie tho? Don't be mad at her, be mad at the folks stealing your taxes instead of improving transportoon system & infrastructure.
Australian comedienne Anisa Nandaula is on the receiving end of Kenyan criticism. The comedienne made a joke about Kenyan roads to Maasai Mara that a lot of people did not take well. A lot of people argue that there is no joke in this piece, she just wanted to find a way to mention Kenya.

The hate was a dehumanizing one. It was not a human being they hated cause skin color. It was, they are essentially cattle because of the color of their skin. So milk produced by enslaved Black women was no different to dairy milk... Well, they likely treated the cows better.
I don't get how they white slave owners hated enslaved black women but forced them to breastfeed their kids

Too many people in the background were okay with letting her get hit.
He saw her hit that dodge and immediately knew he had no chance 😭

And it is why I don't trust anyone against sex education.
once again i believe a more nefarious reason sex ed isn’t prevalent in this country is that it would provide the kids with the ability to preempt, recognize and speak about abuse.

I'm not meant to take an imbalanced friendship personally?! I fully understand my friend's with children have a more strained schedule and as such our dynamic has adjusted to that. But, they aren't neglectful friends either.
If your friend has a baby and you don’t have kids, you have to be the one to put in more effort in maintaining the friendship. That’s part of being in mama’s tribe. Don’t take it personal if she isn’t hitting you up first. She’s raising a freaking human being lol

Another video where no one stepped in to defuse or stop him from hitting her... Fyi Shout out to her village, they did a great job making sure she can protect herself.
He saw her hit that dodge and immediately knew he had no chance 😭

That answers a question I've always had. I had assumed it would be poor etiquette to show up to an orgy when you just wanna observe/watch. You just have to communicate and get consent. Lovely.
This is why I’m never getting invited to an orgy
