Meanwhile en Armenia: - La oposición propone crear un "Ministerio de Mujeres insatisfechas" para mejorar las tasas de natalidad. - El portavoz del Gobierno les pregunta si van a estar sus madres. El resto es historia y una oda al parlamentarismo post-soviético. Enjoy.

This reminds me that planes are now flying past Talanta, which wasn't previously a flight path. Flight paths were changed, presumably, to show off the shiny new overpriced building which will be paid off by our great great grandchildren.
Tunajua manataka flypast pale Talanta on 5th Jan 👀✈️ Sasa tuipange ama? 😂

An apt borrowed description of our current existence under this government is that "we live by chance [but we] die by design"
This country.. you will die and just become a statistic on the news.. a building fell people still trapped, a bus killed 20 people.. and everyone is just.. only your loved ones mourn you, this country will kill you and not even say your name one last time .. 😢.

When this conversation comes up, I always go back to this really succinct quote from Fran Lebowitz.
There's a lot of gay ppl doing culture commentary now who do not know cultural references beyond the ones that have been memes on the internet. In previous generations being gay in that space was all about being a nerd about cultural minutiae of the past. That was the foundation

Your favourite cabro MP specialises in insider trading and share manipulation but is absent at any debate of substance in parliament. He's not your saviour.

Kenya doesn't have a traditional left/right political orientation which makes it challenging for people trying to draw parallels. Note: The last mainstream leftist politician I can think of is Jaramogi
Wacheni nisome juu ya hii presidential elections ya brazil juu sielewi how mumeamua Sifuna represents Lula or the left 🌝 and one cannot place Sifuna in the left/ right spectrum because he literally doesn't have any economic policy. (Yet?)

Remember Magnifica Humanitas , the encyclical on AI by Leo? Which other church has an actual position on it? What is your church's position on it? Does your church have the capacity to have a position on it?

Kenya is run by mad men. In 2018 logging had been banned in because forests were being depleted at the rate of about 5,000 hectares per annum. This led to an estimated annual reduction in water availability of 62 million cubic metres. But now @KIPPRAKENYA reports that “because the government lifted the ban on logging in Oct 2023 in commercial forests to allow “harvest of mature trees” the @KeForestService (KFS) produced a set of rules that will “guide” the harvesting of 5,000 hectares of commercial forests per annum of the 150,000 hectares of gazetted public forest” So how do you @KeForestService decide to harvest at the same rate that saw Kenya losing 62Million cubic metres of water annually? Have you lost your minds? If losing 5,000 hectares a year was a crisis in 2018, why is cutting 5,000 hectares a year acceptable now? Also who got the tender? I want to see something.

Every time I live through yet another Brazilian election I can’t but marvel at an electoral system that can count 120 million votes in a single evening. Take a bow, Brazil

Are we allowed to call the French protests the "Caucasian Spring" then send African reporters there for months on end to discuss political instability in Europe due to authoritarian leadership?
