Man, I’m sick of Molly and her superior attitude. She legit thinks she’s better than Issa. #InsecureHBO
She was shook at the success of that block party. She legit expected (and probably hoped) the event would fail. She’s just looking for shit to be mad at. #InsecureHBO
Look out for friends who secretly want you to fail.

This weekend while at a petrol station, I struck up a conversation with the attendant, who proceeded to tell me that COVID-19 is fake, a ploy to get donor funds. That broke me, because my father died of COVID-19.
I also contracted the virus, and had to mourn my dad in almost complete solitude. I cannot think of anything worse.
And then there's the constant, all-consuming thoughts of how my dad spent his final days. Alone. Unable to be with those who loved him the most.
A video of Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko is doing the rounds, in which he claims that according to research from the World Health Organization, drinking alcohol kills the coronavirus that causes COVID-19.I looked into this and this is what I found.
In the video, Gov. Sonko says that he is including bottles of cognac in the care packages to be donated to the needy, because since hand sanitizer contains 70% alcohol, the cognac would also act as a “throat sanitizer” and would kill the virus. This is FALSE.
The WHO posted this on its Facebook page on March 30th. The post says that not only does drinking alcohol NOT protect you against COVID-19, frequent or excessive alcohol use could increase your risk of health problems.
These guys have clearly taken advantage of the time they spent away from socials to think about just how terribly they handled this following #MyAlwaysExperience.
I like that the beginning is an acknowledgement of the fact that people complained....and there was none of the “what are you complaining about” that we are so accustomed to.
OK. Caveat. I watch a lot of true crime and listen to podcasts that talk about serial killers so my musings are definitely influenced by this.
Thread
Every time I read about a murder that has taken place, and especially particularly gruesome ones, my first thought is always....has this happened before? Is there a previous case with a similar MO?
Then I wonder...does the Kenya Police/DCI have a special criminal profiling division? Where they take a closer look at these crimes and try and build a profile of the perpetrator?
So last week, Always invited me to a consumer roundtable to ostensibly have an open and honest conversation about my experience with the brand.
THREAD.
Let me first say that I was not happy AT ALL with how Always handled #MyAlwaysExperience. Responding to legitimate complaints with an influencer campaign without first addressing their consumers was a mistake.
I suffer from endometriosis. My period is hectic enough without having to deal with a pad that isn’t comfortable. Sadly, I didn’t have other options as other brands were not equipped do deal with my flow. So I stopped using Always Ultra and stuck to the Always Maxi.
I was talking to an old friend today. He is thinking seriously of leaving Kenya and making a go of it in another country. I asked where, and he said,
"Anywhere where I will not be scared out of my mind every time my kids leave the house."
That one got me. Just the other day, a study by the Spectator said that Kenya is the 7th most dangerous place to live in the world. Colombia is considered safer. COLOMBIA YOU GUYS.
This is why the #ClimbForJustice is so important. A group of passionate young Kenyans want to raise 50 million shillings in order to set up a centre for human rights, where power can finally be held to account.
