I'm 27 this year.

I've always been a bright kid from my childhood. But since I turned 16, I gave into vices, stealing, fighting, alcoholism and different sexual acts.

I wasted my years. I could have learned online skills or even real life skills.

I just started learning digital marketing. How can I make up for all this lost time??

Just why me!!
What do you mean by why you?
It's your decision. Live with it.
I stead of just why you, why not start by disassociating yourself from your group of friends.

Uour friends define you. If anybody around you don't bring good positive vibe around you, leave and move on. As you strive to do good,good and quality productive people will magnet towards you

cococandy:
It’s a type of breadfruit with much smaller seeds than regular breadfruit. I’ve only ever seen it in the east. The seeds are what we cook and eat. Main method of cooking it is in a soup or porridge form. In a porridge, it has the same texture and mouthfeel as black eyed peas.

I think it’s very delicious.

But I don’t know if it’s something of an acquired taste so have an open mind if you ever come across it.😊

Descarado over to you
grin
Funny you.

Edo people have the tree(some parts) but they don't eat ukwa. A sis who was a teacher there made so much money with this. Said, it will fall decay and rot in the farm. So she always tell her students to take her to ukwa tree.

Ukwa is a balanced diet on its own. The only thing packing is veggie. It's what you prepare for your father inlaw specially. I can say it's arguably the most expensive food in Nigeria. Trust me, it's that expensive. It doesn't swell up when cooked. So you have to buy lots.

In igboland the way one prepare ukwa will tell you were the person came from.
The picture up there is how anambra people love their ukwa. Just plain filled with water.
Imo(Coco) make ukwa porridge, so sweet. I think the sweetness is in another level. Abia and imp are the same. Enugu is more like anambra. Ebonyi, I don't actually know.
Ther is also cooked corn mixed together with cooked ukwa( our grannies can do that, it takes ages to make that)
Ukwa takes time to cook. Some put ash or potash. One maybe lucky. I cooked that one with pressure pot.
You can roast it like groundnut, eat with palm kernel or coconut. Check out igbo ladies who sell groundnut, you will see roasted ukwa too on their stand or tray.
So you can imagine my happiness when I got it. It took me straight home. And my annoyance that my family looked down on it. tongue cheesy

I'm not in Nigeria. They will not work in Nigeria due to differences in power voltage and with blenders with this level of power, I doubt it. Idk if a converter would help, however.

American appliances work in Canada, and vice versa. The new model I just bought from their new line came directly from their headquarters in Cleveland, Ohio, as did the A3500, and the label on the outside box has "USA/Canada" on it, which means it/they will work in either or both countries.

I called them this morning to ask if they ship to Nigeria and was told they don't and have never shipped to Nigeria, unfortunately. The lady said they actually no longer ship internationally but only within USA and to Canada, that other countries would have to buy them from their distributors, which are listed on their website.

Idk if you bought your A3500i from them (https://www.vitamix.com/us/en_us) when they shipped internationally to the UK or from their official distributor in the UK (Devaney & Co. Ltd: https://www.vitamixuk.com/), but if you bought it directly from them, you could've called them about the dry container not working and it's possible they could've done something to help, even a year later. The company's customer service is top notch and always kind.

If the dry container didn't work, it was likely the wrong container. The dry grains container for the Ascent Series is the "1.4 Litres Dry Grains Container with SELF DETECT" (https://www.vitamixuk.com/product/1-4ltr-dry-container-with-self-detect/).
K thanks.

1) I don't understand this sentence. IF you're claiming women work longer hours for less, that is wrong. In any workplace women likely work fewer hours than men.

2) Men have never been GIVEN the upper hand by any human or political bias.

Nature gave men the upper hand....bigger muscle mass for example. When it comes to IQ, averages are the same for both genders but males tend to have higher presence at the lowest and highest IQ percentile, while women have higher presence in between.

For most of human existence, muscle mass was the most prized commodity and conferred superiority and power. By the way, men with small muscles and physique were just as powerless as women back in those days.

As humanity grew richer, more jobs that needed brain power and less muscle became available and women could participate MORE in the economy and earning money. So today the women are a near or outright majority of law and medical graduates in the USA (makes sense because those require average or a bit higher levels of intellect) while men are the majority of self made billionaires and millionaires which likely demands exceptionally high IQ or aggressiveness.

Anyway these are elementary things that most educated people should know by now. For the record I couldn't understand much of what you wrote sha, hence I picked two that were clear enough...I think. So ignore me if I didn't get your points.

Good Luck to Nigerians.
It's straight forward answer. Women can take longer hours like men. The rest of my jargon is what I have been re- echoing here that irk me so much irrespective of how I presented the points.


Don't know why after so many yrs in this forum, folks still identify me as a male.

Foreign Affairs › Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by descarado: 1:16pm On Dec 10, 2024
Gerrard59:
That's not entirely true. Single women out earn married women and almost equal if not equal in most cases with married men. In some cases, they out earn single men. The obstacle to so-called parity with men in earnings is because of the motherhood tax/penalty

Even in Nordic countries, the headquarters of feminism and gender equality, men outearn women largely because men take up more harder jobs - which are usually highly lucrative, e.g oil rigs - and work longer hours - overtime pay. This is because of hypergamy as women desire men who outearn them.

This singular gender pay inequality was the reason I reasoned that feminism is one of greatest scam to have been birthed and opted out of the ideology.

If you want to earn as equal as a man doing the same job: take up longer hours, study quantitative courses, don't have children and boom! You will earn as equal as a man. Lesbians do so. See evidence: "What’s behind the lesbian pay premium?" - Financial Times.

There is nothing like gender pay gap. It's a terrible lie that has gone too far.

cc: IbeOkehie
Women take up longer hours and earn exactly what men earn as long as women are employed in that line of work.
Where do you live?
The only thing you can say is when they're is an opportunity to grow, men are mostly considered cos of motherhood except women whose kids are no longer dependent on them.
Also a mother can afford to chose staying closer to her kids than career development and expansion. Aside this, women and men earn the same where I live except in sports and news media.

Feminism of old is good. Women were treated like property. They fought, protested. Eg, in uk,women do not vote until one lady fought and took it to the street with other women. Unfortunately, she died before it was implemented. In BBC male anchors are paid more than female. These are what feminists should fight for.
Today, especially in usa, I don't know what feminism meant to them.
If feminism is fighting for a trans man to compete in an all female sports and use women toilet, that is not feminism but wokeism.

I expect females to champion female related problems where men are given upper hand but women are the one supporting these men to take over what rightfully belong to women. The question is why should women support men to use female toilet or compete in an all female sports?

That is not feminism. American feminists should go back to the table and rediscover themselves. They are the reason the world don't take feminism serious anymore.
Oh, I forgot, since they worship celebrities, they are following their footsteps.

Most of the anti men feminist celebrities have one thing in common, failed relationships and marriages. It's simply spite not genuine concern. And the masses are following them.
Fight for more maternity leave grant, pay, no dismissal cos you are pregnant, take a sick leave with pay cos your child is sick, company bending to your will cos your kid comes first eg, they book training during your day off when it's school run.
Stuffs like this and more are what feminists should fight for.
If they had brought stuffs like this on the table,they will win the masses. Not drags performing in church during children programme and teacher telling children it's OK to feel different. Female teachers o. Talk of freedom gone too far.
I always come in peace.
