of God's many creations...damnnit

and there i was bored as heck and flipping through my twitter timeline when i stumbled on the following back and forth in retweets:

person A: "awwww, you shouldn't have said someone is ugly...its just so mean"
person B: "being mean is not a criminal offence. besides if something is a fact, its no longer considered mean"
Person A: "sha know that we are all God's creations"
person C (from the blues): "yeah, all of us except Derek J"

well, look, y'all know i'm a lawyer and as inquisitive as they come so at this point i had one of two choices. (i) jump in and retweet "whats a Derek J" (cos it better not be a human being that someone would speak about like that) or (ii) just google it. and so google it i did...and i haven't been able to snap out of it. here is Derek J.




okay look. as everyone knows, i am all for the "do whatever you like as long as it hurts nobody" but c'mon! dude, seriously? so here's my ish right here...if you're gonna be a top-heavy, formerly muscular, big necked, cross dressing whatever you are, it may help to (a) do it in the confines of your home and spare the rest of the public the nightmare of having that mental picture in their head for the rest of their lives (b) at least look good in whatever it is you're wearing - losing weight perhaps? and (c) wear a damn bra. all of which mr. j above seems not to know.

but who am i kidding. in a world of reality television and people who are famous for no reason (thereby crowding out real talent), it has become more and more difficult to get noticed if you're not doing something outright ludicrous...and so the next generation has decided that it must erode what is left of the human sense of propriety by becoming wilder, freer and encouraging others to do same. so in some sense, since i hear mr. j is a 'famous celebrity stylist' i can safely assume this is done to get him some attention. if so, then it truly does work cos if he was dressed like every other guy down the road, i doubt he would have countless blog posts about him (sadly, including this one).

i find that from experience, women find this sorts of things completely hilarious and would be the ones encouraging him to be "different" but i dare say that the american society with its boundless freedom should have boundaries of public decency. i know you're prolly thinking "of all the things on earth that we have to be rightfully worried about, why on earth would anyone spare a thought for how another person is dressed?"...to that i have no response but i kinda get how someone would rightfully assume that mr. j is definitely not God's creation. its quite clear now why the good book admonishes that men should not wear women's clothes and vice versa...totally.

see y'all around peeps.


P.S: i stumbled on this right after the post...bum shorts! LMAO ROTFL...with the stomach hanging all around and a hippo neck. i'd give him a 5 for hilarity value.

Of #MoreThanPlatitudes

Look at this picture. That's one of the children being rescued from a collapsed school building in Lagos, Nigeria. You don't have a be a parent and I won't pander to your better instincts. Tell me this is acceptable or should be allowed to occur again. The President sent condolence messages and the Governor visited the site then said the state emergency services will do all they can cliched response. the end. and people moved on. The heartbreaking pictures of the children pulled out half dazed with cement dust all over their little noses (Exhibit A) did not let me sleep last night. I have gone to drop a comment on the governor's pages on all social media platforms that we need #MoreThanPlatitudes 🚫❌ We need to hear what policy changes are triggered by the death of these babies. The Commissioner of Education must address Lagosians and set up a project team with the Commissioner for Works or Town Planning etc to undertake an immediate structural integrity test

Dear Reader, It appears blogger.com is on its way out. It will always be my first intro to blogging and holds a special place in my heart. However I cannot run two blog sites at once and have to move away from here permanently. My new site is: https://simplyoroquesview.blog/ This will stay up as long as possible but with no further blog posts or updates. See you at my new site! RQ

of #BalanceForBetter

With the global movement shifting women forward, making them outspoken and addressing negative patriarchal activities that have gone on for decades...it has been a great year for moving women forward. The concept of gender equality is now universally accepted and even religious leaders have come to openly embrace the concept as not being against godly teachings. The place of the woman is now everywhere, no more is her definition of success measured by the ability to be submissive to a man or to cook and iron and clean. And although feminism is still under attack in half the world where conservative traditional way of life still holds sway, there has been immense improvement in female child education, reduction of female genital mutilation, plus girl child marriage and trafficking is being fought head on. It is a great time to be a woman. This year, companies and corporate organizations around the world are making a conscious effort to balance the pay gap in the workplace. When H
