You cannot enslave a mind that knows itself, that values itself and that understands itself.

WhatsApp launching ads, contrary to the wishes of it's founders besides the new Meta AI button is such a bummer for an app that largely stayed off the ad forays of most social media apps, This Metafication of WhatsApp dissuades me from an ad-filled messaging and calling user experience.

When you find a gem, treasure it and take care of it. Rarity is powerful.

Do not indulge in dreams of having what you have not, but reckon up the chief of the blessings you do possess, and then thankfully remember how you would crave for them if they were not yours. -Marcus Aurelius

A good simple watch is a plus.

One of the first consequences of practising the art of spiritual love is that we discover how to be 'empty' of our own egos. We learn how to listen, to be patient, to want what is good for others and not to judge others or criticise.

Meditation is great for the soul.

Deferment is a negotiation tactic used when both parties have a power dynamic and acknowledge the mutual assured destruction clause quite intimately; devoid of that balance of power and leverage, I find deferment less efficient when non-peers are at loggerheads.

Half a week so far hanging out with pre millennial generations and gotta admit, I love their intuition on life stuff especially on the idea that we shouldn't delay moving on to the successive life stages lest your kid gets uncomfortable with you visiting with white hair. That's deep.

People watching is perhaps one of the craziest hobbies I have heard of in a minute

Reasonable Doubt is getting me hooked real slow; the lead counsel loving criminals is a bait for me - setting itself out to be great court drama and some dope interpersonal stories; easy going too.

There is usually an inverse relationship between how much something is on your mind and how much is getting done.

The consistent, unproductive preoccupation with all the things we have to do is the single largest consumer of time and energy. -Kerry Gleeson Getting Things Done by David Allen #booksky

I’m so old I think humans should be doing the writing and art making and computers should be doing the math.

Absolutely genius how Andor dovetails into this movie. An achievement of this scale has been rarely accomplished in any medium.

This partnership between Airtel Africa and Starlink is one of the best news for tech enthusiasts, health centres and educational institutions situated in rural communities and far flung areas too remote to install fibre optic cables. techweez.com/2025/05/08/s...

The art of resting the mind and the power of dismissing from it all care and worry is probably one of the secrets of our great men. - Capt. J.A Hatfield

Healthy skepticism is often the best way to glean the value of what's being presented - challenge it; prove it wrong, if you can. That creates engagement, which is the key to understanding.

Sharon Wanjohi skits at @comedycentral.bsky.social are comedy gold especially for most millennials where life milestones have become so Mt. Everest, you stay at base camp till it all suddenly makes sense - you are well adjusted for the altitude sickness you may as well just not summit it and ski.

I have always loved biking for the simplicity of it all: health benefits from exercise, economically a cheaper form of transport and an open book for adventure and travel. #Bikes

Cycling isn't just transport. It's a daily dose of movement that can improve cardiovascular fitness and support mental health. Investing in bike lanes keeps cyclists safe and supports active, healthy communities. #MedSky #EpiSky #AcademicSky

your body doesn't just reject food, it also rejects energy, if your body starts rejecting certain places, people, or things, trust it & listen

Never make plans with money that is not in your pocket yet; the chicks may never hatch leaving you at the building castles part.

The Venn diagram of people who leave their popcorn and concessions garbage in the seats and aisles at movie theaters and people who don’t pick up their dog shit is a circle.

The way #Andor released four 3-episode chunks as mini movies is a production and storytelling style that more shows should learn from. It’s really fun to watch that way.

No strings attached. #airforce1

Congratulations to the winners of Nature’s 2025 #ScientistAtWork photo competition. The overall winner is a photo of biologist Audun Rikardsen, taken by his PhD student Emma Vogel, scanning the waters for whales near fishing trawlers in the fjords of northern Norway. 🧵 #SciArt #Academicsky 🧪

I concur,Apple TV+ is indeed the new HBO.

you nerds only like Andor because it's well-written, beautiful to look at, and loaded with great actors.

The hyper-politicization of the Trump administration makes assessing his national security strategies difficult. Every time there’s a small breakthrough, the president hails it as one of the great deals of history. And sycophantic subordinates feed his desire for adulation with exaggerated praise

Going without is the price of simplicity.

So I binged Andor season 2, 9 episodes. My take. It is good but not as gripping as season 1. I appreciated how restrained the writing was and how some things are left unsaid. But I also felt like they played a bit too safe this time. That said the actors did a great job. 1/

I can’t see how we’ll ever be a grown up country if can’t acknowledge that migration has essential and beneficial impacts. The question is not whether there should be controls but if your starting point is immigration is harmful and integration impossible that will determine the controls you choose

Kiernan Shipka totally got me with Swimming With the Sharks. Probably watched all the six episodes given how suave her acting is.

“The distance between what is said and what is known to be true has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil.” This will live rent-free in my mind forever. #Andor
