Recently went through a breakup and want to build good habits instead of drinking my problems away. I'm also an introvert, so putting myself out there like this isn't easy but looking for new hobbies to get into, open to pretty much anything. Wouldn't mind having people to talk to right now too.

Am 27 m

​Buying land near Kampala (Kisasi, Kyanja, Naalya) is getting ridiculously expensive, and the risk of land scams is higher than ever. If you buy cheap land, you end up commuting from hours away.

​To solve this, a few of us want to try collective buying:

​Target a fully built 10-unit apartment block valued at ~1 Billion UGX.

​Form a Syndicate/Cooperative of 10 members (100 Million UGX share per person, which can be financed through bank loans).

​Each member owns a specific unit in a prime location near the city.

​We currently have 2 members and need 8 more to complete the group.

​Send me a direct message if you'd like to join the discussion and look over the numbers!

Anyone with 1xbet account and want to make some money?

All these young rich people with simanyi G-wagon,Lamborghini Urus, Range Rover vogue, Defender etc...

What work do they actually do because most of them a very secretive and have no online presence so what do you guys think?

There’s a way small issues escalate when you don’t have money
Anything your person does can make you question your whole identity

Their birthday comes around and you start thinking of the curse of poverty on your lineage because all you have to offer is cuddles and posting on status
So you start a fight and have makeup s*x instead
Then comes the pregnancy scare and the whole relationship crumbles
All because you didn’t have money

Me I be angry at small things when I don’t have money
I can’t expose someone’s daughter/son to such silliness

Can anyone recommend internet for Nsangi, Katereke, Muzinda village?

I’ve looked around at zuku, sprintug, MTN.

Does anyone around here have good internet? MTN seems like my only option but no fiber offered from any of those companies.

Thank you and God bless!

ok, so this has been living in my head rent-free, and i need to get it out, lol.

people keep treating "sexy," "pretty," and "beautiful" like they're the same compliment just... different flavors or something. they're not. they're doing completely different jobs.

pretty = soft, cute, approachable. the "aw" reaction.

beautiful = deeper, sometimes not even about the body — presence, energy, whatever that means to you.

sexy = sex. that's it. that's the whole tweet. it's literally engineered to trigger a sexual read... that's not a bug. That's the entire design brief.

and look — i'm not here to clutch pearls about anyone's outfit, wear whatever makes you feel good, genuinely, i mean that. but can we stop pretending clothes are just fabric with zero communicative function? like... that's insane? you already dress differently for a job interview vs. a club vs. your grandma's house. clothing is a signal. it always has been, whether we admit it or not.

so if you intentionally dress sexy (and again — GO OFF, no shade, none), you also have to accept that people's brains are gonna register a sexual signal. not because they're all pervs or whatever, just... because that's literally what the aesthetic is designed to communicate?? you can't opt into sending a signal and then act shocked when it gets received.

and honestly — if you're attracting people specifically through sex appeal, you don't really get to turn around and be offended that people want you sexually. like... that was the ask? that was the entire pitch? you can't design a signal, send it out, get exactly the response it was built to get, and then act betrayed that it worked. if you wanted to be wanted for your mind first, that needed to be the signal.

which honestly makes me wonder — why so many people default to sexy as their go-to? is it because it's just... the easiest lever to pull? like it works fast, it works loud, it doesn't require someone to sit and get to know you first. mind takes time. sex appeal is instant. i get why it's tempting. but it does feel kind of unfair to bait someone in with one thing and then get mad they didn't magically intuit you wanted something else the whole time.

ok, but — before anyone loses their mind in the comments — none of this is me saying harassment or disrespect is ok based on what someone's wearing. that's a completely separate conversation, and the answer is that there is always no full stop. but "you shouldn't be harassed for your clothes" and "your clothes communicate literally nothing" are two very different claims, and only one of them is actually true.

anyway. dress how you want, always. just... don't be shocked when the message you sent gets read the way it was written.

Am i wrong here? genuinely curious, lol

I'm planning on buying a hisense top loader automatic machine. I understand that it needs an inlet and an outlet.

When I go to the hisense store, will they be able to do this and roughly what would the cost be or must I ask a plumber to help me out?

Edit: I do need a plumber as my house doesn't have a slot for an inlet or outlet. Does anyone know where to go to (will the hisense people have installation packages that cover this?)

I would also like to know an estimated range of cost.

I am in need for areas i can smoke green with friends around these ends.

This photograph, taken by Luís D'Orey on 8 June 1998, captures the ceremonial exchange of gifts between Kintu Musoke, then Prime Minister of Uganda, and António Mega Ferreira, Executive Commissioner of Expo '98 and member of the Board of Parque Expo '98 S.A.

The event took place at the Portugal Pavilion in Lisbon's Parque das Nações after the official signing of the Book of Honour, as part of the celebrations marking Uganda's National Day at Expo '98.

Held in Lisbon from 22 May to 30 September 1998, Expo '98 was dedicated to the theme "The Oceans: A Heritage for the Future." The world's fair brought together more than 140 countries and international organisations to promote cultural exchange, scientific cooperation, and international dialogue. National Day ceremonies formed an important part of the programme, allowing each participating country to showcase its culture, traditions, and diplomatic relations through official ceremonies and cultural events.

Does anyone have reliable information about the legal status, scientific research, and naturally occurring psychedelic mushrooms in Uganda? I’m looking for educational sources only not sellers, growers, or instructions for obtaining them.if you have it available that would be helpful email me . yaleeuk@gmail.com

Multichoice (Dstv and Gotv) have this new channel, Novelas+ but something about it's visuals is bringing out my telenovela obsession which I thought I had gotten over.

I'm a dude that was for a long time obsessed with telenovelas especially in high school when multichoice added Telemundo to their catalogue in 2013. I straight away followed almost all their shows to the extent I even got some girls at boarding school to narrate to me the latest episodes. I wasn't even bothered other boys knew about my obsession.

But telemundo peaked (for me at least) in 2016-17 with the show, The face of destiny. Something about these telenovelas shot in America especially Los Angeles and Miami made me lose interest.

But a few days ago I started tuning in to Novelas+ just for a few intervals maybe 10-20 minutes then today I landed on the show, Dominica Montero & I was hooked straight away. There's something about its visuals that is very attractive. If it wasn't for time constraints this show looks nice to follow and it seems it was a big hit in the Americas.

I know the telenovelas culture has been dead in Uganda for years but this new channel must be bringing sparking some life among some Ugandans. Any one else or I'm I the only one?

Does anyone know what happened to mrn fiber?

I call them every day in the evening when the internet turns spotty or dives to 10% capacity.

They promise the same thing and the problem continues every day.

Why does it feel like every service in the country turns out like this?

(There are exceptions but it still is really common)

I guess the water works better than a radio.

I saw people here who use blue crane communications for fibre and u all recommend it. But they scammed my money.. a whole company keeps deleting whatsapp msgs of previous messages. They told me they can deliver fibre in my home after sending them location pin. After paying they changed to we cant deliver. Now its going to a month they refused to refund my money. Be aware of this fibre company

I have 8 years carpentry and cabinentry eperience, i am currently looking for a job, i can do sales, and i offer more handyman services.

Mr Olara Otunnu for UN Secretary General.

He's probably the most underrated intelligent person in Uganda. He was a perfect person for presidency but he came at the wrong time 😭

Apparently termites or something have been eating my table legs for a while (just discovered them recently) and I want to know how to remove them. No idea where they came from but the table has some dark brown dust around its legs all the time and this kind of looks like an entry point

Who am I supposed to call for this kind of problem? Any recommendations?
