Cancel Culture: Modern Justice or Online Bullying?

  In today’s digital age, cancel culture seems to stir up more heated debate than most. Some hail it as a way for society to hold public figures and institutions accountable while others see it as a dangerous form of online bullying; an unforgiving, mob-driven take-down with real-life consequences.

The goal? Find the problem and solve it. When a guy hears someone venting about a tough day, his brain starts scanning for solutions: ✅ “Did you try talking to your boss?” ✅ “Maybe you should switch gyms.” ✅ “Here’s what I would do…” This isn’t because men don’t care—it’s actually the opposite. They think the best way to help is to fix whatever’s wrong. The issue? Sometimes, the person talking doesn’t want a solution; ...

Bwana Kama Wewe Ungehesabu Maovu Yetu Lyrics

By G.A Chavalla,  St. Maurus Kurasini. Bwana kama wewe ungehesabu maovu yetu, (nani angesimama)*3 mbele yako. 1. Lakini kwako kuna msamaha, ili wewe uogopwe, nimemngoja Bwana, roho yangu, na neno lake nimelitumaini. 2. Nafsi yangu inamngoja Bwana, kuliko walinzi, walinzi waingojavyo asubuhi Naam walinzi waingojavyo asubuhi. 3. Ee Bwana toka vilindini, nimekulilia. Bwana sauti yangu usikie, masikio yako yasikie Dua zangu.
