But this is not only a black problem. No, it is a human problem. There are people worse in mentality than blacks, the blacks just stand out because their skin absorbs too much sunlight- they can't even give ordinary sunlight back to the atmosphere, they absorb everything then get black from the selfishness. Black is beautiful my arse! No race is beautiful unless they radiate beauty. Thats why blacks look ugly, and whites look beautiful- it is about the heart! If Abraham Lincoln did not have support from fellow white people, the abolishing would not work. Just look at that- millions of whites ready to die for a bunch of slaves who cannot even reward their sacrifices. Now you, a modern Nigerian, would sit down there too terrified to liberate your own people, too stingy to support another person trying to do it, too selfish to work for the great good.

I agree with your writeup except for this part, shows you're no different, brilliant and radical? Yes, but still brainwashed like others with no real grasp of history & probably suffering from an acute case of self hate. Nothing as worse as an European mind in an African body. It's a travesty.

Try and study more, maybe you'll discover how the current state of world affairs happened due to deliberate actions & the consequences that followed. While you're at it, keep a lookout on how it affected the psych of the population. Japan , SA and India are notable mentions.

Which way Africa by Basel Davidson is a great way to start, Smart ass.

how does 6kg carries you for 6 months all those got me tire. I trace the holes with water and can't find any leak. Make I should change the regulator.

I morning and evening and sometimes afternoon. I don't cook beans often.

I don't cook unnecessarily or should I say I cook in bulk. E.g Do everything in the the mornings ( afternoon+evening food is ready and placed in coolers) & just do some warming in the evenings.

Might be your regulator though if there are no leaks.

SpongeBob0006, noticed you sent me a mail, I don't have access to it, Reach me through the email address in the first post on this thread.

6kg lasts me 3months. It sometimes depends on the gas station, some of them tamper with their equipments. My supplier uses an automatic gas filler machine which also has a digital scale so you know you're not being cheated.

Lagos as a whole is just stressful... whether island, mainland or offland... people are becoming to much here, you can't go anywhere without holdup.... reason i don't even drive often these days...you go just weak....one Sunday night i just drove to chicken republic 10mins drive coming back i spent close to 45 mins....any small thing can cause traffic...i just tire.. sometime later i might relocate to my beloved iB or maybe go start up in abuja..Lagos is just nah...Gidi & stress na 5 & 6

Have you been to Epe, offland right? Nothing like stress here, Easy on the fallacy of hasty generalization.

Reading the comments on this page & shaking my head. I have no problems with the private cars but have you people entered any danfo recently? These things are mostly to generate revenue for the govt.

ArewaTech1:
I'm from the North bro. that's how it is. at least in our tribe/family.

I'm a Fulani. so make sure you avoid our girls
if you don't want to be the 1 doing all the 4 things I mentioned.

and I'm pretty sure it is the same amongst the Hausas.

You didn't outline what's expected of the women ( behaviors, attitudes & responsibilities) in return. I'm sure he would likely change his mind when he finds out they are different from the type he rolls with.

We're not in a woke society. Like one poster said, In Nigeria/africa marriage is all about control. I fully agree except with the way she potrayed it. Few women can handle power/wealth without misbehaving, look around you or towards the western hemisphere.

A man has to have a modicum of control over his affairs, mind you I'm referring to control=firm hand & not the typical outright master/slave relationship. Everyone recognizes that subconsciously, even the so called women who are loudly against it. Listen to a woman's words at your own peril. Men lead, women follow. We're not equals, the Ukraine situation just exposed that woke ism shit! Hypocrites!

Most Nigerian men do not hate working class women, what they don't want is someone with a lot of ego which is quite common among these kind of ladies. When a typical woman makes more money she feels she doesn't need a man, women like this like to upset the cart with needless drama or power tussles.
Marriage is not a competition, women like that should grow balls & remain single, adopt children or look abroad for emasculated men that would allow such nonsense. It's not by force to get married. The nunnery is always open. Most men don't need their women's money either but there are certain conditions the man should be able to count on you to serve as a backup temporarily but we all know how 90% of such cases end. What's the use of marrying such a woman then if everything is one way? Getting a baby mama is better then.

So men go after the unemployed humble type but the only mistake they make is not setting up those women to work under them in their business/work remotely from home to improve her capability to support the home, a woman can't have two masters & still function effectively at home, yes you heard it right. Ever noticed why most women respect their pastors/bosses more than their husbands? There are natural reasons for all these.

Make sure the business is in your name/you own it to avoid the kind of tales we read of foolish ignorant men in the Romance section. If you're lucky to have one of the well brought up & evolved women who don't see men as competition or a tool to be used & discarded, she can have her own businesses & your full support.

One man I know sells gadgets, His wife works there with him, he can travel/look after his other businesses in peace, nor would she give him Yeye excuses when they get home.

So it's up to both genders to know what they want & follow it but unfortunately most folks live on auto mode, na anywhere belle face is their life rule, no definite plans, nothing.

If you want a traditional man, prepare to be a fully submissive traditional wife.

You want a partner? Make sure you're one also in all ramifications.

Want a man to lord it over, find a gigolo or something, many guys are up for that.

Most women prefer the first option but would typically try to have their cake & eat it at the same time. Want to be taken care of as queens without rendering any serious responsibilities/services like a Chihuahua.

Ekende:
May I ask how one deloads emotions?

You can channel them into strenuous aggressive exercises like punching bags in the gym, pushups, short sprints or any other activity till exhaustion. Crying works for some etc. There is actually a more detailed study about this topic & healing traumas through inducing involuntary body tissues shakes but I'm too busy to dig it out. Basically the premise revolves about how animals who just had near death encounters have been observed to handle the emotional stress by shaking their bodies & moving on with no issues. Humans also have a similar mechanism.

Nobody shouts at me. Bosses study people also.

But just in case, Just keep quiet and let them keep ranting, do it everytime until they get it makes them look foolish to everyone else, The smart ones would calm down. Hope you know how to deload your emotions though instead of bottling them up, I personally don't take most things personal or seriously, I'll just sit & study you like a totally boring specimen.

OYENIYIJK:

Bought this domain at Sav and outbounded like 3 times, no replies. Let it expire, sav deleted it from my account and the status changed to "redemption period". Didn't delete it from my afternic account as usual only for sales alert to show on Monday. I was like nah, this one don go but I remembered epik redeeming a case like that. Chatted up Sav support after seeing it met the requirements, they billed me $80 & redeemed it instanta, no locks, quite fast support also. Thank God for oyeniyijk that helped fund my PayPal asap, Nigerian banks would have done their usual. Hope the story helps someone. If una like, no read from page 1 or sleep on namepros.

brijibs:
Good morning and thanks so much for this.
Please, do you have any resources for graphics design? I'd like to learn that too.
If you have any tutorials or you can point me to where I can get some, please do.
Thank you once again.

https://helpx.adobe.com/africa/creative-cloud/tutorials-explore.html
https://helpx.adobe.com/africa/creative-cloud/user-guide.html.

Use YouTube regularly & search for graphic design resources on Twitter, they get shared now and then.

Note: you'll learn faster trying to replicate designs done by others.

Think I should follow this OP. Not saying this out of spite but you'll probably still come here with another issue which is another opportunity to learn for others who do not want to commit the same mistakes you're making.

Your marital journey & the possible ending is quite predictable for discerning minds after going through your threads but as for you, you're learning & would learn by experience.

I would like you to place special focus on the words of karle.b astra.droid, toks2008. You're taking advice from women about women, I laugh. You will learn. Talk is cheap.

My own take: Take your sister outside and pay. I could talk about the future, or even when it would be you at the receiving end but I'll hold my peace.

[s]Come to think of it, I actually know someone in your exact shoes, older and is known to help every family member (both sides) that goes to him for help. The wife knows better, the man junior sister handles most of their baking needs today(private/ceremonial)[/s]

But screw all that, let's all ignore the elephant in the room and talk about business without sentiments.

Most people who have observed and experienced human nature understand that principle. People like you to be below them or on the same level, only few evolved ones really wish you the best.

You'll be shocked at the changes in behavior of some of those you see as close friends even family when you make the mistake of letting them get a whiff of your achievements that makes it seem like you're doing better than them even if in reality they are doing quite better than you. Envy is really a widespread thing, I also envy but not to the detriment of others, My reasoning is since they don't have two heads, I should also put more efforts in my endeavors. Not start giving them cold shoulders or trying to pull them down.

But it's good to post once in a while, It helps to identify such folks. Take note, Categorize and go back to posting memes.

Look for introductory courses in the mentioned skills, go through them and choose.

For UI/UX google the Accenture user experience course (free)

For cyber security try cybrary.io

You can check Coursera, Udacity, Udemy etc for the last two.

Lastly, it would be easier if you find a career path you have a passion for and develop skills in it.

Alphaman007:
Nice thread, I'm also in design pal working on the grabby app stuff

More ink to ur pen don't let ur hands tire out


...can we chat on WhatsApp

Depends on what you want to talk about. I'm easy to reach here than on WhatsApp.

Bloody antispambot, think I'll just drop hints on how to craft a resume, cover letters & job searches post.

For the resume look for the 1 page template that contains only your details, experience, skills & education/certification in the link below.

The work experience part is very important, be brief and write in quantifiable terms e.g I designed websites vs I designed 3 websites that increased user conversions by over 50% for a Proptech company.

Also Search for information on how to make your CV a t s compliant*

Cover letters distinguish you from other candidates, I scored interviews back to back when I started putting more focus on it. Don't copy and paste. What I mostly do is visit the company website, read up on their values etc and look for stuff that would attract their interest. Like if you're a UI Designer for example, go through their website, look for shit you can improve and word it into your cover letter e.g "I noticed the navigation/color/design on your website www... is this and this, As a UI designer working for your company, I would have done it this way and that..,., infact check out this refactoring design I made of your site for comparison.

They would know you're paying attention. Make sure it contains a brief intro on yourself, your values, boast a little and talk about your capabilities and hammer on the value your would bring to them. No-go lie o. Oyo is your case during the interview.

Find a template and always edit to your taste. I'll edit and post a sample later.

Damn, days just fly by when you spend most of the time in front of screens. Living the dream in front of a box , Life of the 21st century man.

Been busy learning webflow, reading, working on my portfolio, other stuffs while still trying to lead a remote team for the DesignPal project mostly consisting of total newbies and some with a little experience. Phew!

Next time I'm going to be leading a design team, I'll either be totally ruthless in vetting members or reach out to reliable folks I've come across to form a handpicked team, I'll take an eager newbie that shows up everytime than a lackadaisical professional. Sure I already made enemies with the members I booted out and replaced Machiavelli style. No time!

Nothing beats having folks driven with the same intensity on a team. It's like a pride of lions conquering everything they come across.

Well, let's talk about resumes, cover letters and job searches.

Go and buy either of the following

Rogaine
Kirkland Minoxidil
Avila Beard oil

The first two are guaranteed, Can't fully vouch for the last. Search for the side effects too & how to identify originals.

If dollar is causing all this, hope withdrawing dollar at the counter won't be a problem too? This govt want to kill us.

Nope, never had a problem withdrawing.

For others, start using PayPal to receive some sale proceeds. Use that to renew & buy domain names. This country is something else.

Really? Search for vaginal dilation videos for transgenders on either 4chan/reddit. Let's see if you would even look at a woman for the next 3 months.

tuzle:
130k can't buy this thou. Laptops are very expensive now. Me self I want to buy but no money yet and it is really slowing my learning progress

I didn't discuss pricing, use whatever you can now but I promise you after getting frustrated multiple times & tried smashing your lagging laptop more than twice, nobody go tell you to find money to invest in a good laptop with those base specs. Ask adobe effects users how far.

Get a laptop with 8/16gb of ram 256/500 SSD drive core i3/i5 and good backup battery & you're good
