    Let's be honest, the thing that we find appalling about this story of a middle-aged white British woman being locked up for weeks by ICE isn't the fact that she was locked up; it's that it can happen to a white middle-aged British woman.

    Immigration services across the West have been cruel for a very long time¹, but just not to people who look like this or come from here.

    ----
    ¹ ICE has got much worse recently

    @skinnylatte I thought you were going to say that it was like posting about plane crashes, in that it's really rare but everyone gets scared that it might happen to them.

    I have to admit that I didn't know it happened at all. But I guess you're talking about foragers, and not those of us who just buy them from shops?

    @skinnylatte I've never been in an earthquake zone before. Is it scary, or is it just normal?

    OK, own up. Who bought that one ticket? I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed.

    PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT TRUMP: Look at what he's done internationally. He's bombed Iran. He kidnapped Maduro. He's toyed with Ukraine. He's intervened in Gaza. He's threatened Greenland.

    NIGERIANS (like me): What about us? What about us! Does our bombing count for nothing?

    I'm not perplexed that kids are going round saying, "6-7."

    What perplexes me is all the adults complaining that "it's annoying! I don't understand what it means!"

    That. Is. The. Whole. Point.

    And, moreover, that's been the point of youth slang since the dawn of time - including when you were young.

    If it's any consolation, it'll happen to today's youths too. As soon as they grow up.

    It breaks my heart to say this, but if what's going on in America teaches us anything it's that highlighting how much a politician hates minorities isn't enough to stop the majority from voting for them.

    I was chatting with a Black friend of Jamaican heritage. She was appalled that a Nigerian she'd met knew next to nothing about slavery.

    It's Black history! she said.

    It's *your* history, I explained.

    For Africans that sad story ended when the ships left the shore. Our schools teach us about the impact of that devastation, not what happened on the other coast.

    Black history is not one thing. It's not MLK.

    It's also Songhai and Benin. Which they don't teach here

    @atsuzaki I don't know how bad it is in Indonesia, but in Nigeria when you eventually fill out the form and pay the extortionate fee, they'll make you queue in the sun ALL DAY, just for them to barely glance at your documents before stamping REJECTED on your passport. With no explanation at all.

    To all the Brits¹, Europeans, Australians, Japanese and Koreans who are outraged at the new ridiculous requirements for visiting the US, I have one simple question:

    What the fuck do you think YOUR country has been demanding from potential African visitors for years?

    ¹ Including me. I am a hypocrite.

    @skinnylatte So what would happen if a (straight) Singaporean fell in love with an immigrant that doesn't have a college degree? They won't be allowed to get married? Could they nip over to Malaysia and get married there?

    Who is the most interesting person that you follow that has fewer than 500 followers?

    I'm looking for new people to follow. The arbitrary 500 follower limit is so I don't get recommended all the usual people who I either already follow or have chosen not to follow.

    What the actual fuck?!

    Nicki bloody Minaj is going to address the United Nations on the plight of Nigerian Christians (lemme check, oh yeah, that includes me).

    Dear God, please make this like the final season of Lost where we all wake up and find out that none of this actually happened cos we've all been dead for this past year. Amen.

    If ever you wanted to know how much capitalism warps our humanity, consider this: Around 800,000 people in the UK are so sick that they cannot work. And instead of being described as a health crisis, it's being called an economic crisis.

    It's a strange feeling logging onto the news to hear that Trump has just declared war against my country, Nigeria.

    On the one hand, it's scary. Cos not only is it the greatest military force in human history, it's the greatest military force in human history at the whim of a madman.

    But then he's got such a short attention span that next week he'll be warring against Tatooine.

    Nigeria is not perfect. We do have Islamic terrorists. But they kill BOTH Christians & Muslims.

    @futurebird I recognise that I don't get a say since it's not my country, but I've been feeling the exact same way. Unless there's a tradition that presidents must never change the white house then I can't get animated about this.

    Over here in Britain, there was a scandal about Boris Johnson redecorating No.10. I didn't like the man, but couldn't give a shit.

    The real scandal, I guess, is that Johnson & Trump have taken money from donors to pay for it
