Help a Nigerian trans woman get back on her feet. She is sick, unable to work, & exhausted what she had seeking care, and is now in debt. Please, even money for food will help.

There is literally a massive election going on in China RIGHT NOW, with 2.6 million grassroots representatives being selected by one BILLION registered voters.

hillary was thrown to his death by christians who said he was gay. they also showed up at his funeral and mocked his family! did that change your view of christianity too? or is your outrage selective?

Trying to use feminism or atheism as a cover to recruit me into your empty, purposeless bigotry will not — and never — work because we do not operate from the same level of empathy, logic, or nuance. My criticism of Islamism is institutional, not essentialist. The same applies to my criticism of any other (religious) system. It’s why some of you can claim to hate Iranian leadership because of its position on women’s rights, yet celebrate or look away when the US rains bombs on scores of schoolgirls. You are so blinded by hate that you don’t see those girls as human beings anymore because, ultimately, you want all Muslims dead. I am not like you. I am not one of you. Go to hell.
Class interest. I got to this conclusion from a conversation I had with a friend of mine who’s Yoruba. Realized he can think of me as his friend even though I’m Igbo. While thinking of Igbo political participation in Lagos as a threat to his ethnic nation. He’s not from Lagos.

people with an internalised colonial hierarchy of language get all the more pained about pidgin because it seems 'derivative of english' but stays within a functioning linguistic system that remains open yet opaque & untranslatable, hence it clashes with their gaze of sovereignty

One of the most effective ways to keep people from questioning an unjust system is to convince them that their ability to survive it makes them morally superior to those who can't.

Dear Africans,
It is in our best interest that we don't get over slavery and Colonialism!

i think leftists are the only people who understand how the free market works
MY FATHER IS 63 AND JUST TOOK HIS HOUSE OFF THE MARKET BECAUSE NOBODY CAME.
Not a single walkthrough in five months.
He wasn't flipping it. He bought that place back in 1996, raised four kids inside it, and needs to downsize because his hip is shot and maintaining a two-story yard is impossible now.
Zillow just released data showing why nobody showed up.
840,000 active buyers nationwide. Lowest number in over a decade.
1.38 million sellers.
Over half a million more people trying to get out than get in.
Here's what killed it. Run a $450,000 mortgage at 7.2%.
Pay every single month for five straight years, never miss a deadline, and you'll still owe roughly $425,000.
Five years of hard labor. Twenty five grand of principal paid off.
That's not buying a home. That's renting capital from a bank while paying property taxes for the privilege.
So my father sits in a home he can't sell, can't maintain, and can't afford to leave. And the young buyers who want it can't afford the interest.
THE SYSTEM IS BROKEN. ONE GENERATION CAN'T BUY IN AND ANOTHER CAN'T ESCAPE.
Nobody is coming to save it.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Zillow did not release the cited data on 840000 active buyers or 1.38 million sellers. Redfin estimated ~929000 buyers and ~1.51 million sellers in September 2026; Zillow reported 1.39 million homes for sale but no matching buyer total.

Personally, I am tired of pretending people I am ideologically opposed against are not intelligent. Pretending people with questionable values, morals or politics are handicapped intellectually (or in whatever we are evaluating in) is intellectually dishonest and lazy.

One day I will write an essay on the classes of Nigerians we have. Breaks my heart how we live in a Nigeria of layers. How is it that 60yrs after so called Independence you still have communities that look like something from the stone age? And how these folks are treated like...
