  1. @JonathanMBR It seems Peter Gregory‘s death in the #sitcom #SiliconValleyHBO wasn‘t far fetched then, unfortunately the great actor Christopher Evan Welch passed irl as well.

  2. @JonathanMBR
    It seems the #Ruto #colonialist #government has no idea, how #Kenya functions and what keeps normal people fed.
    Or, they do, but don't give an eggplant, cos they are willing servants of big #corporate masters.

  3. @JonathanMBR #italy was humbled and put into it's borders. If I remember correctly, #ethopia was one of the 4 countries worldwide, which never got colonized.

  4. @JonathanMBR
    Merely swapping one #silo for another, seems to be an #oxymoron, no?

    In today's increasingly tech-enabled world, should we not be supporting more practical workable solutions?

    #free, #libre & #open works.

    I love the #Gurunsi style home covered in an undulating black-and-white check pattern. The optical illusions that visually distort the shapes of the walls are such a fun effect. I also like the parts of the design where it seems like one of the ladies said, “these few squares here, they need to break the pattern by having designs inside them, just for fun.”

  7. Hi @JonathanMBR . Today was rent payment day in Ghana. Ouch! I can't support anymore African footballers at this time. But I'm interested in learning about Kenya football and which teams you watch.

  11. Meanwhile, in #Kenya, public transport is going on strike due to the price of fuel (half-understandable but half-overkill)

  12. @ZekuZelalem @algeria I’ve been reading you articles. Nice to see ppl like you connected. Also @JonathanMBR and @kari. You can ad for our #Algerian instance #DZsocial if you like. ☺️

    We need more local communities and local infrastructure.

  13. There are some terrible things going on right now in Kenya due to a controversial finance bill, leading to mass protests, protesters being shot by police and an official state of emergency being declared. The parliament is on fire.

    For a Kenyan voice on what is happening, recommend following:

  15. Following my earlier post today on the #Kenya #Drought ⬆️ i just wanted to add this @mongabay report on #Turkana people having to switch from #Pastoralism to #Fishing in Lake Turkana as pastorialism is no longer viable for them given the ongoing, devastating drought. Let’s make a collective effort to get the experiences of people already so deeply impacted by #climateEmergency #ClimateCrisis heard in our #ClimateDiary @JonathanMBR

  16. Mixed feelings.
    On the one hand, I wish African countries to have their own industry, otherwise neocolonialism will never end.

    On the other hand, SUVs are really one of the last things humanity needs at the moment (a product of US fossil capitalism aiming at frustrated urban middle and upper class dudes) and I wish that all companies producing them to go bankrupt as quick as possible. A strong car industry is also a political liability: these guys lobby the governments away from meaningful environmental protection,

    I heard that Kenya's urban population is very quick in adopting small electric vehicles like e-scooters, so maybe there's a window of opportunity. But China dominates the e-mobility industry because of reasons, so it won't be easy to build up alternatives.

    And although I don't have any sympathies with international investment funds losing money, it's a bad signal and African industry development will have it more difficult to attain funding.

    Haha, although I thought that I don't know what to say, I said already too much 😅
