YOUTUBE UNIVERSITY OF PUNJAB.
By Brian Nzomo. In Facebook, we jeer and taunt Indians for their egregious behaviors. Justifiably, they rouse irritation when they hit inboxes of random account users to request for nudes.

HUMANITY SHALL FIND RECOURSE IN ITSELF – IT HAS ALWAYS DONE.
By Brian Nzomo “How do you deal with the glaring meaninglessness of life?” I am asked every time. “Certainly, it would be plausible for anyone to embrace religion to find meaning even when its foundations seem to be delusive and farcical!” I am constantly reminded that religion is a placating little lie that we repriseContinue reading “HUMANITY SHALL FIND RECOURSE IN ITSELF – IT HAS ALWAYS DONE.”
NOSTALGIA OF THE WICKED : HIGH SCHOOL CLUBS – A REMINISCING OF THE MUNDANE.
By Brian Nzomo. *Sigh. I don’t think there were any entities as obtuse as clubs and societies in high school. And to imagine one was forced to join or participate in them (at most 2 clubs). An ordinary punk like me could not join either the St. John Ambulance or the Scouts club. These wereContinue reading “NOSTALGIA OF THE WICKED : HIGH SCHOOL CLUBS – A REMINISCING OF THE MUNDANE.”

STORIES OF THE DILAPIDATED HUMAN.
MICHAEL’S STORY. By Brian Nzomo I was seemingly satisfied with the type of lifestyle I was leading until I made a three-day stay at a cousin’s place.
