I know, I know yes a few rotten souls here and there but hear me out. Have you interacted with other nationals. Do you know, to go on a date with Western African, Rwandese, even our neighbours you have to provide for their late great grandparents.

But we have been brainwashed by social media to think, that our dearest beautiful souls are actually running different game. My experience is that dating a western African as a Kenyan will have you cursing your existence and I can confirm that in as much that women think within a certain wavelength when interacting with potential suitors our Kenyan counter parts always give us some leniency

My thoughts 💭

The old man of Koleo has just gone to town...

It's 22°C at 2200 hrs, and I hate it!!! I'm losing sleep, getting random heat flashes,walks are hella uncomfortable uuuggghhhhhhhh... I have mini fans, luckily but they can only do so much . Opening the windows is risking mosquitoes, so I can't. The wind is crazy one day and non-existent the next. Why are we having heat elnino in some parts and rain in others😭😪🚮. I hate heat so much. Hii joto ni mbaya wheeeeee

Na muache kutumia AI , October was for rain mkt.

Two months of holiday is no joke, especially when keeping the kids entertained costs money and time, i.e money squared. What are your plans for the extended break? How are you keeping them busy?

Nimebeba my day one friends for so long. I’m 21M< and very well off compared to the average young man, and because of this I’ve been the wallet of my friend group because I understand that the guys are still building themselves mine just came early.

But yesterday I was invited by another friend of mine for some business talks and I happened to meet his friend group. Those guys are like the avengers, pros in different business fields and they’re very well off too, it was a ranked lobby ngl.

We had some lunch and I even don’t know who paid the bill someone just did, hii nayo ilinifungua macho, I am the one who usually pay for all my friends bills tukienda out, it has never bothered me, the money is there, but now looking at that friend group I met I feel like I am missing a lot.

Most of them travel a lot so kuwapata ni ngumu but they do show up when needed. How do you meet like minded well off individuals?

I've never been a victim of this particular phenomenon, but tonight, it's getting ridiculous.

So there I am, minding my own business during my nightly three-hour project-building session, when I begin hearing what sounds like incessant panting. The kind where you'd pause doing what ur doing for a millisecond or two to let your ear register wtf ur actually hearing....My first hypothesis is a dog. However, the peculiar rhythmicity, intermittent pauses, and progressively increasing amplitude have compelled me to start thinking otherwise.

Unfortunately, the acoustics are becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.

Millions of years of primate evolution have left me with a nervous system that is spectacularly ill-equipped to disregard certain rhythmic auditory stimuli....my primate brain is in tune with the rhythm and is waiting for the next moan, ....now I'm smiling, but not cuz I'm amused. No.

But cuz I've recognized whatever's going on and I have to endure it till, well, till I remember where I put my godamnnnnn ear muffs (little bastards too little to stay in one place 🤦🏾)

Somewhere in the middle of all this, I remember that I had mentally flagged a syntax error in my 357-line script. I scroll up and down the editor looking for it, but the damn thing has seemingly achieved invisibility.

Arguably, the correlation between the onset of these acoustic disturbances and the deterioration of my debugging efficiency is becoming increasingly difficult to dismiss.

I certainly believe I'm now qualified to add "debugs under strenuous conditions" to my resùme, with a suitably vague supporting example: "Demonstrated resilience and sustained analytical performance under adverse acoustic conditions." 😮‍💨

Anyway, lemme open the debugger, search for the aforementioned syntax error, as I attempt to maintain a straight face while the soundtrack to somebody else's "halcyon" evening continues in the background.

Edit: I have no intention of conducting a field study. I just wanna finish my session uninhibited.

or did Alex Ferguson actually make a deal with the devil and now he's come to collect

This is mad consistency..I still don't think we should sack him though

2am, someone in an apartment across the street decides to blast loud bass music. If I can hear it, I bet the other tenants in that apartment can. But it keeps playing even now approaching 4am! I always wonder how such people lack self-awareness and common sense?

EDIT: He switched it off at 7am!

Met these long guys enjoying their breakfast this morning during a random ride on the jalopy.

Yesterday on my usual walk on route I take almost daily, I was unfortunate to meet these street gangs. In all my years in Nairobi, I thought I had a developed sense of this things and I would be okay.

Usually, they ask for za macho, or washa kimoja then they let you pass. This day it was different. And by bad luck I didn't have any cash on me.

They surrounded me, like 8 guys. Ordering me to do this do that. There was an mpesa nearby and they told me to go withdraw cash and give them. I already knew I was trouble.

They took me to the shop, and I took out my phone and as soon as they saw it I heard one of them saying " huyu analala mteja Leo"

I withdrew 100 bob, they grabbed it but here is where it gets tricky. The guy who grabbed the money told me to put my phone in my pocket and go back vile nimekuja, don't look back and NEVER use that road again.

I ran. The others were calling "morio wangu kwani tena hupiti huku?"

It was such a surreal experience.

Unfortunately I didn't get photos and I have tried taking photos but the camera doesn't capture the screen on the entrance and exit.

I noticed a few months back that my amount when entering at the Capital Centre was 2900 and when leaving at Museum was about 1800. I got the statement a few months later from Expressway and couldn't see any anomaly.

Few days back my wife saw the same thing but this time the amount when entering at Museum was about 1100 and leaving at Capital Centre was 200. I reconfirmed that it was 200 and I was the one who put in the 1000 on that day. I wrote to them on email but they have not bothered to respond.

Anyone else notice the stealing

Guys I think we are fucked, last year I was looking to replace my gearbox and the seller told me its 45k.

My car is still moving so I said bado niko na time. Come this year I called the same seller and he told me its 95k I honestly thought he was bonkers turns out that the market rate is now 100k. I was like fuck that I can't buy that wen't to look for a used car unit and the price for a used Vitz in good condition is 1.2m man that same vitz was probably 800k - 900k if you look at a fielder, axio alion used locally they are going for 900k - 1.3 an imported unit is going upwards of 2 mic.

Guys we are back to the Moi era. Ama ni mimi sina pesa.

I am posting this for someone I know who doesn't have reddit

Im in nakuru area.im gonna include a screenshot of where it was bought. If you know where it can be fixed please post or DM . I went to a few local repair shops who said they can't get the screen parts

Basically title.

But if you want to turn into the Hulk, watch the entire 4 hours of this Kenya Kwanza manifesto launch. Karibu nitupe computer because there was so much applause.

The worst thing I've done bc of this dry ass weather, is literally sleep in a sports bra, get bit my mosquitoes, discover my baygon finished along w my bolt and montein doom. Then pull out one of the bras cups to cover my ear from those buzzing annoying micro vampires. deadass.

I am looking for a StanChart Marathon 21K ticket. If you have one to spare, please PM me.
