Some men are beasts while some women also deserve no pity!!! 😡

January 1st, I visited my parents at Ikorodu and around 9pm, i left their place and got home around 9:30pm. While opening the gates to drive in, i saw my NEW NEIGHBOR’S WIFE outside with a worried look...

 She quickly rushed towards me that is it possible I take her to Ikorodu that night? I was like Nooooo, do you want to kill me. Apparently, I really drove around ikorodu that day from Isawo to Igbo olomu to Agbede to Igbo oluwo visiting families, so I told her i’m tired...
She said no problem then, that she actually got someone to take her but the person is misbehaving. Since I noticed how unsettled she was, i asked why she can’t reschedule for next morning that it’s late. She said No, she must leave that night with her loads. Loads???...
Why do you want to leave with your loads? But you and your husband moved in just 3 weeks ago, what happened? She said she’s the only one leaving but she will be coming once in a while. I sensed that to be a lie, so my final statement was “If you can’t tell me what happened...
...I won’t move an inch”

I sensed there’s a marital issue but she wasn’t forthcoming with the story. I don’t want a situation where I will later be seen as the wicked neighbor who broke a home. I wanted the full story. She said i shouldn’t bother about the story...
That all she needed is for me to take her to Ikorodu. I said “NO”, then I drove in, parked and closed the gate.
Some minutes after I settled in, she came knocking but this time with a threat. Her words “Boda Ade, please come and carry me to Ikorodu, else if anything happens...
...to me, my blood will be on your neck o” whaaaaat?

I quickly opened the door and this time, she told me what happened. She had an argument with her husband during the day and it resulted in him beating her up with belt and punches. She showed me a deep cut on her knee which...
is as a result of a punch. So before the guy left home, he told her to pack her things and leave, that he must not meet her at home, else, he will kill her.

I angrily went inside, brought out my car key and told her to load the car up. I didn’t go into their apartment...
She brought out everything herself. The car was filled to the brim. So we set out around 10:30pm that 1st of January.

While on the way, she told me about how young their marriage is. She told me about how she lost her 10-month old daughter and for months her...
husband stopped having sex with her. She also caught him on several occasions on how he’s hitting on different girls, blue, green, yellow, any kind of girl and the painful part is that he wasn’t hiding his adulterous act, he was doing it in the open for her to see. 😮
I was angry but I didn’t give reactions. We drove drove drove drove drove drove drove inside inside inside inside inside inside Ikorodu till we got to her brother’s place with her things. Her brother and I unpacked everything while she was cursing, crying and all sorts which...
gave me the confidence that she was going to take up the case. She said nothing in this life can bring them back together. At a point, she danced that she’s free from abuses. It seems the beating has been happening for long.
Actually, I just wanna go home. It’s almost 12am abeg..
I set out on my journey back home and alas, i got home around past 1. Even though there was curfew, I got home. Adupe.

Some days later, my neighbor started coming home with different girls. Wawu. I didn’t care, we don’t have rapport and he doesn’t even know i was the one...
who moved his wife, so I didn’t care. I had inner peace.

Just yesterday night around 10pm, i heard a knock on my door, who’s that? I shouted.

The reply came in “BODA ADE, I AM BACK”

Back as how? Abi aye yin fe baje ni? She came back after all the curses and swears 😢
She came back with all the loads just as she left after 2 weeks.

I remember telling my mum what happened then, she prayed for me that day just because i took her away risking my life at the dead of the night, only for this lady to come back.

Sincerely, i’m angry. 😡
Imagine something happened to me that night while coming back, is this how they will both move on? 😮

The funny part is that she will tell her husband that i’m the one who helped her move. I have to be security conscious.

I’m very angry 😡 very very

The Nashville Operation - A Battle in the War

A thread exploring the Nashville bombing in the context of the 2020 Digital War (via SolarWinds) against the United States perpetrated by our enemies, likely China, Iran and/or Russia.


SolarWinds Hack

A digital "Pearl Harbor" moment for the United States, whoever was responsible had access to the keys to the kingdom for months during 2020, including sensitive military infrastructure. This is war!

SunGard + SolarWinds

SolarWinds software company is owned by same company that owns SunGard, which essentially provides data center services. A secure place to host internet servers with redundant power and "big pipe" data connections.

https://t.co/U3P3SrrkM1


SunGard Data Center

In Nashville, around the corner from their "big pipe" connection, AT&T. Like any data center, highly secure. Only authorized personnel can enter, and even fewer can access the actual server rooms. Backup generators are available in case of power failure.


If the SunGard hardware was being used to "host" critical command and control software related to SolarWinds, the US powers would be very interested in gaining special access keys that are stored on the hard-drives of specific servers.

So much #FactCheckBait being put out by IT Cell today and so many people biting.

What is #FactCheckBait? Fascists putting out tweets or messages with very obvious rebuttal properties. So non-fascists are distracted by rebutting or fact checking them. And the fascists get more name recognition. What have the top sanghi twitter accounts done other than provoke?

Why are so many sanghi bigot handles famous & well followed on Twitter despite having no notable quality other than getting called out by liberals? Cos that's all it takes. If they can fool liberals into QTing or even screenshot-ing them, they become heroes and then are like


Another example of #FactCheckBait. This sanghi wants you to identify them while pointing out the very obvious flaws in their logic. This sanghi is counting on it to improve their visibility. Don't give them that oxygen. Call them out like this, without IDs, if you must.


As pointed out by @bongopondit, peak #FactCheckBait was Ted Cruz saying rejoining the Paris climate agreement was about appeasing Paris not Pittsburgh. He knows it's BS. He's an evil psychopath but not dumb. He wants you to QT him and distract from his insurrection efforts.

We should stop confusing what someone was doing when we became aware of them with all they are capable of, interested in, or ever hope to be

Let folks have their many talents, interests and gifts. Life is far more fun with variety, loves.

A lot of folks have come to know me as an activist & I’m grateful that folks care to know me at all.

But I wasn’t born in 2014. I was a whole teacher, executive, policy person, speaker, arts and culture lover, reader, writer, woman of faith, fashion and more before 4 yrs ago 🤷🏾‍♀️

We rightfully complain that marginalized people are not allowed to be fully human.

But we internalize and transfer our oppression daily. It’s a smog. We all breathe it in & act it out.

And then tell WoC “girl ain’t you supposed to be a _______? Why you doing ____?”

Can I live?

And don’t go reading anything personal into this-this isn’t about me necessarily and it’s no subtweet (I try hard not to do that.)

I’ve just been observing that behavior more and more lately. Especially when it comes to marginalized folks.

Evolution should be our aspiration.

“Can’t knock the hustle” should be our anthem.

As long as someone isn’t bringing active and continual harm, why can’t they explore their many sides?

When I was 25, I worked as a legislative assistant in the Missouri General Assembly.

It was a dream job, honestly.

But that dream dissipated the day the #MoLeg decided to name Rush Limbaugh as an “honorable Missourian” and place his bust in the “Hall of Famous Missourians.”

1/

The Hall of Famous Missourians sits in the Missouri State Capitol.

There are busts of Mark Twain, Dred Scott, Josephine Baker, Harry Truman and other legends of history.

The day I learned Rush Limbaugh would join their ranks, I thought it was a joke.

2/

We received phone calls from constituents appalled that Missouri would honor a man who had become infamous that year for calling a college student a “slut.”

And who just that week had continued spreading the racist birtherism lie about our then-President, Barack Obama.

3/

What I learned that day is that it wasn’t *despite* his racism, but because of it that he received this award.

It’s because he created a universe where it was permissible to lynch with language America’s first black President.

4/

Several State Representatives and their staffers intended to protest the vote and the selection.

By the time we made it to the doors of the House Floor, we weren’t allowed in. It was Republicans only. The doors were locked and secured by the Highway Patrol.

Overall I think Labour will be a bit disappointed with how the ‘relaunch’ has started. Labour have given themselves a mountain to climb anyway through a year of inaction but the speech today lacked coherence, purpose and distinction from the government.

Starmer is (funnily enough) making a lot of the same mistakes Corbyn made in 2019. He is listing a ‘bold’ set of policy proposals that come across as disjointed and lacking connection to Britain’s priorities.

The policies themselves were basically good, I wouldn’t argue against them. But I would cringe whenever Labour came out with spending proposal after spending proposal in 2019 without any rationale or connection to a larger economic strategy. That’s what Starmer did today.

The questions that voters will have about Starmer’s speech are the same ones that voters will have had about Corbyn’s 2019 manifesto: why are these policies your priority, how can we afford them and why aren’t we doing these already?

The first one needs to be answered by diagnosing Britain’s problems and their causes. He doesn’t have to diagnose all of them. For the purpose of today he could have picked three that feed off each other: inequality, stagnant income growth and stagnant productivity.

Hello, writers! How about a thread on LITERARY AGENTS? How to get one, how to talk to one, how to keep one happy. Spoiler alert: I am 100% pro agent and can't imagine not having one on my side. 1/

Why would you want a literary agent?
* you want to be traditionally published
* you want someone experienced to help guide your career
* you want to learn how to edit like a pro
* you want to sell foreign and movie rights
* you want answers to your newbie questions 2/

Why you might *NOT* want a literary agent:
* you want to self publish
* you're not willing to compromise on your edits
* you don't think their expertise is worth 15% of your advance
I... can't think this way. Literary agents have been crucial to my career. 3/

So, how do you get a literary agent?
1. Have a finished, revised, edited, polished manuscript.
2. Write a query letter for your book
3. Send your query to agents who rep your genre and are open to submissions
4. Repeat steps 1-4 until you're offered representation. 4/

So, let's go through those four steps. First of all, you must have a finished, revised, edited, polished book, and it must be sellable. That is, you can't sell a 600k picture book or a 40k adult Fantasy, etc. You must read extensively in the genre you're writing. 5/

Raja asked why he performed magical acts, does he expect anything from him or people of Madurai.

Siddhar laughed & replied to Raja that he was from Kasi. He had heard a lot about Madurai in Kashi.Also told that this place is a Mukti Kshetram,so he had come to stay here.

Siddhar asked Raja if he has the capability &power to give anything that he asks for. Siddhar told King that he has power to do things even if he think of it.Siddhar asked King to ask whatever he wants & it would be provided, whatever these people had asked, they were granted.


Abhisheka Pandyan was shocked to receive such a reply from Siddhar,& he decided to test the power of this Siddhar. By that time, Raja saw a person in crowd having Sugarcane.

Ameda Temple
Ernakulam, Kerala 🚩
#keralatemples

Ameda Ksetram is located in the banks of Vembanad Lake. Temple is very unique and Powerful Sarpa Kavu.
Parashurama did Prathishta here. Vilakku which was lighted by Parasurama is still seen inside the temple.


The oil from this lamp is given to bhakthas for recovering from illness.

Sthala puranam says that, Once, when Parashurama was travelling through Kerala, he reached this place. As it was evening, he stepped into the Lake for Sandhya Vandanam
At that Sapthamathrukkal 👇


(Brahmini, maheshwari, kowmari, vaishnavi, varahi, indirani and chamundi) were travelling there on a tortoise through the water. The tortoise was unable to move, because the Water had made its way for Parashurama. The place where the tortoise became Still came to be known as 👇


Aama Ni Nidayam' ( Aama means tortoise) and later become ‘Ameda’. Parashurama came to know about the journey of Sapthamathrukkal. Thus, he did Prathishta for the Sapthamathrukkal here.
7 forms of Aadi Parashakthi are Sapthamathrukkal. Veerabhadra and Ganesha have Sannidhi here.


The main Garbhagriham in the temple is the Sapthamathrukkal. There are Sannidhi to Nagas, Nagayakshi and Vishnu too. Sarparadhana or snake worship is done here. Naga Panchami is famous here. Those who have Naga Dosham come here and get relieved of their Doshas.
