Raising the perplexing unresolved issue of how to spell Hanukkah. Perhaps this is what they were upset about?

The vaccine is 97% effective.

I knew this was going to happen and said so at the time. x.com/africasacoun...

This looks intriguing.

Any indication yet of impact on tourism? Or response from tourism bureaus?

Why are we calling it a US-brokered peace deal? Not one word of this is accurate. Its as if we called jupiter a canada-themed planet.

Somehow not The Onion?

The problem isnt that the court is giving Trump these powers. It’s that it will promptly rescind them when a Democrat comes to power. It’s Calvin Ball all the way down. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/11/o...

I will say this, @usip.org @altusip.bsky.social never gave a shit a congo during the years I worked there. Here it’s on front page. The agreement is utter bullshit itself, but baby steps.

Fuck trump.

The little starter suburban house is $500k on east coast and a car is $50k. Thats crazy. We need a new American dream. A sunny apartment in the city and walking or biking everywhere.

This will be great for tourism.

The @nytimes.com or @theguardian.com really need to do a deep dive on how facebook has recently chosen to memory-hole in-country accounts that are critical of third world dictators.

@bcdreyer.social is it Masai or Maasai? Or one the park and the other the people? Signed, A fan from kenya

Has anyone been covering the fact that zuckerberg has been cutting off any dissident or critical voices of regimes in Africa and asia? Just completely wiping them off FACEBOOK, without warning, as though they had never existed? Seems like a story tech journos would be interested in.

Glorai Sengha, speaking out against Rwanda’s depradations in eastern Congo here in Nairobi: youtu.be/ewDjlTo6syY?...

Surely the insurance companies would offer more for the jewels than theyd be worth melted down? Isnt this what crypto was invented for?

I dont know why Tshisekedi doesnt offer the Israelies 20 year access to congo’s mineral wealth. For that price, Israel would dynamite Kagame’s nuts.

I swear this mosquito was not repelled by three morteins at each socket around my bed, and did not die after a thorough dousing of the room with Raid. I still have pretty fast reflexes though. Super mosquitoes are here.

What it will do is find some way to disallow California and New York from gerrymandering. Remember that blue states are bigger and will benefit more from “redistricting”.

2 pm at the chak guest house and conference center press conference on new report about mass killings in eastern Congo and sham peace agreement in DC between Tahisekedi and Kagame.

Well, this isn’t good.

Mark Zuckerberg would have suppressed news of the camps. He’s a judenrat.

I see the NY’er is continuing its seedy tradition of sending people who know nothing about the region to central Africa to perpetuate bullshit stories about them. In this case leopard societies as the prime mover of the violence in e Congo.

Noted Congolese activist to speak in Nairobi on mass killings in eastern congo and future of pan-Africanism. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Could i introduce to some of these epstein pals—larry, im looking at you—to the idea of harakiri? It wont save your reputation but it will give your family some finality.

Its not just that AI can do a passable version of various musical traditions, its that some people prefer it: bland and predictable, like kraft mac n cheese.

Thanks trump! www.thefp.com/p/fentanyl-c...

This film about sexual violence and Dr. Mukwege’s Panzi Institute, looks intriguing: youtu.be/DmbUYFZ4CE4?...

Congolese and democracy activists in Nairobi may be interested to learn that Gloria Sengha Panda Shala , noted Congolese dissident, is coming to nairobi next week and speaking at various events. Here is more information about her: fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloria_...

We, of course, will fail utterly to respond in kind when its our turn. Cuz democrats are limp-dicked losers. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/25/u...

@bcdreyer.social hey! Quick question: what is the collective noun for digital nomads? An irritation, perhaps?

An ambitious young kenyan journalist should follow this story closely!

Sigh. Congo.

Part of our “kit” should be knowing how to live shoot video, so it immediately goes to the cloud.

Wait, i always thought Chapelle’s mom worked FOR Lumumba x.com/paulkleinfan...

Lovely. hsph.harvard.edu/news/usaid-s...

Gloria Sengha Panda Shala, noted Congolese activist, will be in Nairobi December 3-8. See fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloria_... for more on her. She’ll want to meet kenyan activists and media and will be giving speech at law school. DM me for more.

Yeah, i never liked that guy, except for his fuck the Winklevoss policy.

Dear @nytimes.com , please stop sending me breaking news of Trump’s latest jackassery. These just get me mad and accomplish nothing. They are about as welcome as my cat’s episodic throw-ups.

This more optimistic take balanced against these www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/o...
