@dammiedammie35 Quality of the “Stew”, quality of the broth, some bay leaves, thyme, and curry ‘ear’ and ‘dear’. Small smoke, should burn, cover with foil, or bags to cook on low heat when the broth is drying...ati be be lo.

@dotunjubal I had a Kodunmi classmate in High School that the Yoruba teacher was flogging and asked, “what is your name?”. Saying his name attracted more strokes because she kept saying, “Kodun e now” Lol.

@UjuAnya The whole idea of embracing diversity and differences is not forcefully blurring the lines but, accepting, dignifying, appreciating the diverse forms as they are. On the other hand, intent and context should never be disregarded...

@yemisichei Like! Nigerian schools conflict intelligence with sciences and diminish the importance of the Arts. And even though I was in the sciences, I didn't like that. I thought it took a lot to be in the Arts.

One of my biggest fear has been posing in the driver’s seat of a friend's car along a driveway. Them not being in the car, and another vehicle hooting for me to clear aside. And me confused and laughing because the car won't drive itself. The car won't drive itself, my darling.

Too much Social media is exactly like eating too rich, too moist, too sweet, too everything of a cake. Stuffing yourself at first feels good. And afterward, you feel less than good and realize that it would have been a lot better if you did not have so much.

Death tells you there's no time to sit around and ponder about how your life should go. It could just come hurtling at you. We actively never remember death, and it is the reason many of us live the way we do. And we will all die—life is only a state of death denial.
