Dear Menstruation, We need to talk. First of all, I respect your consistency. Every month, no fail. You don’t even send a memo,you just show up. That’s commitment. But can we address a few things? 😢 You already take bl00d. Fine, we’ve accepted that part. You already bring cramps that make us question every life choice we’ve ever made. We’ve managed. You already come with fatigue that turns a simple flight of stairs into Mount Everest. We’ve coped. So my question is,why the extra? Why do you always have to announce your arrival by redecorating our faces with pimples? 🥲😢 Is the bl00d not enough announcement? Is the back pain not loud enough? Do you really need to leave souvenirs on our cheeks and chin for the whole world to see? We are already dealing with mood swings, cravings, and the fear of staining white. We are already calculating pad money. Please, can we sign a peace treaty? Take the bl00d, take the cramps if you must, but leave our faces alone. We are managing enough. Let us at least keep our glow. Yours sincerely, Every girl who has checked the mirror and said “God, not again” few days before you arrived. Ladies, what’s the most annoying thing your period does to you apart from cramps? Afoma Aghadi Afomachukwu

Nobody likes you when you're depressed. Plain and simple. We can talk all day about mental health and how important it is, but the moment you are depressed, people start to distance themselves. They see you as negative, a burden, and someone too heavy to handle.

Being able to tolerate the sound of your own voice in a video is probably the highest form of self acceptance.

Write that down. And don’t ever forget it.

Social media was ready to crucify the girl who cooked pepper soup for her boyfriend and his friends only for them to die shortly after. They accused her of killing them and it was full-on gender wars on X that day. Turns out she's innocent, it wasn’t the soup— it was something much more sinister. Let’s talk about carbon monoxide poisoning. Thread 👇

By the way, The idea of a “new year” is a complete social construct for us to plan/organise our lives as human beings. There is nothing about today that makes it new or different from yesterday. The year is only new if you think better, plan better and do something new with it.

The thing dey always funny me. The funniest part is when the feminist complain that Igbo men are controlled by their mothers but then cry when you ask them if they agree women are the problem 😂😂
