Como tengo una Nintendo DS quiero ahora jugar juegos. La cosa es saber que juegos son los que merecen más la pena jugar.

He comenzado a jugar al Castlevania Portrait of Ruin y me está gustando mucho.

TIL that there's a "No alcohol sales before 10am" law here. Fair enough, I can see the point.

Funny thing is, the cashier told me it also applies to very low or even no alcohol things... like rum baba desserts 😆

I guess the half-width barriers around the drinks section should have given me a clue... they did, I just assumed a 9am curfew.

in reply to Abram Kedge🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇨🇦

Yep. The registers cannot even ring them up before that time.

I used to have to argue with customers every Sunday, too, about what time alcohol sales began. Yet, you can buy cigarettes 24/7 or restricted cough syrup and cold medicine. It's the only ID required item with time of day rules attached. It's silly.

The Economy of Fear: How Kidnapping Became a Business Model in Nigeria by Lawson Akhigbe


The uncomfortable reality is that kidnapping in Nigeria increasingly resembles a functioning market. In this market, fear is the currency, human beings are the commodities, and safety has become a product available only to those who can afford to buy it.
The media in this post is not displayed to visitors. To view it, please go to the original post.

Nigeria Police Force
For decades, Nigerians have been told that insecurity is a temporary challenge, a problem that will eventually be defeated through increased funding, new operations, and fresh government initiatives. Yet year after year, the crisis deepens. What if the problem is not simply insecurity itself? What if insecurity has become an economy?

The uncomfortable reality is that kidnapping in Nigeria increasingly resembles a functioning market. In this market, fear is the currency, human beings are the commodities, and safety has become a product available only to those who can afford to buy it.

Between July 2024 and June 2025, nearly 5,000 people were reportedly abducted across Nigeria, with ransom demands totaling approximately N48 billion. These figures reveal something more disturbing than criminal activity. They reveal an organised economic system operating alongside the formal economy.

Safety as a Luxury Good


In every functioning state, security is a public good. Citizens pay taxes, and the state provides protection. The social contract rests on this fundamental bargain.

In Nigeria, however, that bargain is increasingly breaking down.

The wealthy employ armed escorts, live in gated estates, install surveillance systems, and hire private security companies. Businesses employ their own guards. Communities organise vigilante groups. Families contribute money for ransom payments when relatives are kidnapped.

The result is a society where safety is no longer guaranteed by citizenship but purchased through private means.

The consequences are profound. Security ceases to be a right and becomes a luxury product. Those who can afford protection survive. Those who cannot become vulnerable participants in a market of fear.

The Al-Kadriyar Family and the Market Logic of Kidnapping


Few cases illustrate this reality more clearly than the abduction of the Al-Kadriyar family.

The family’s ordeal attracted national attention. Nigerians across social and religious divides rallied in sympathy. Public fundraising efforts emerged to assist in securing their release. Politicians, activists, and ordinary citizens amplified the story.

Yet the reaction of the kidnappers exposed a chilling truth.

Rather than reducing their demands in response to public sympathy, reports indicated that the kidnappers increased their expectations. The attention surrounding the case became a market signal. Public awareness suggested that additional funds might be available. Increased visibility translated into increased perceived value.

This is not the behaviour of desperate criminals acting irrationally. It is the behaviour of market participants responding to incentives.

The kidnappers were effectively pricing the hostage according to demand.

That observation is disturbing because it demonstrates that kidnapping has evolved beyond isolated criminality. It now operates according to economic principles.

The Trillion-Naira Paradox


Successive governments have responded to insecurity with larger security budgets.

Billions became hundreds of billions. Hundreds of billions became trillions.

Yet ordinary Nigerians continue to experience worsening insecurity.

This raises an uncomfortable question: if the security challenge persists despite ever-increasing expenditure, where is the money going?

Investigations and public audits over the years have repeatedly highlighted procurement irregularities, abandoned projects, inflated contracts, ghost expenditures, and inefficient deployment of resources. Analysts frequently argue that only a fraction of allocated security funding reaches personnel operating on the front lines.

The result is a paradox.

The insecurity crisis justifies larger budgets. Larger budgets create larger contracts. Larger contracts create larger opportunities for patronage and political influence. The continuation of insecurity therefore sustains a network of financial and political interests.

This does not mean officials deliberately create insecurity. Rather, it means that the system often rewards spending more than solving.

In such an environment, the absence of a solution becomes more profitable than the presence of one.

The Privatization of Survival


Nigerians have become experts at adapting to state failure.

When public electricity became unreliable, people bought generators.

When public water systems failed, people drilled boreholes.

When public healthcare deteriorated, those who could afford it sought private hospitals.

When education declined, private schools emerged.

Now, when security fails, families crowdsource ransom payments and communities organise their own protection.

This adaptation demonstrates remarkable resilience. It also creates a dangerous political consequence.

Every private solution reduces pressure for a public solution.

A citizen who buys a generator no longer depends entirely on public electricity. A family that pays ransom through crowdfunding bypasses the state’s security obligations. A community vigilante fills a gap that should be occupied by professional law enforcement.

Gradually, the extraordinary becomes normal.

What should be a national scandal becomes routine.

Citizens stop demanding functioning institutions because they have learned to survive without them.

At that point, they cease acting as citizens and begin behaving as subjects—individuals who must personally finance services that should already be guaranteed by the state.

Following the Money


The common explanation for kidnapping is poverty. While poverty undoubtedly contributes to criminality, it does not fully explain the scale and sophistication of the crisis.

Kidnapping persists because it generates revenue.

Ransom payments generate income for criminal networks.

Security contracts generate revenue for private actors.

Emergency appropriations generate spending opportunities.

Political promises generate electoral capital.

An entire ecosystem emerges around managing insecurity rather than eliminating it.

The question Nigerians should ask is not merely who commits kidnappings.

The deeper question is who benefits from the existence of a society permanently afraid.

Conclusion: Seeing the System


The greatest danger facing Nigeria is not simply kidnapping itself. It is the normalisation of a system in which insecurity becomes profitable.

Markets survive because incentives sustain them. If kidnapping has become an industry, then understanding the incentives that sustain it becomes essential to defeating it.

One cannot dismantle a system one refuses to see.

For too long, discussions about insecurity have focused exclusively on the symptoms, the kidnappers, the ransom demands, the tragic headlines.

The time has come to examine the structure beneath the headlines.

Follow the money.

Follow the incentives.

Follow the interests that profit when citizens live in fear.

Only then can Nigerians begin to understand whether they are confronting random criminality or an economy built upon insecurity itself.

Fa abbastanza impressione che il CEO miliardario di Shopify abbia definito “un buon sistema” l’idea di togliere il diritto di voto a milioni di persone sulla base delle tasse che pagano.

E allo stesso tempo ci viene venduta l’idea che tra qualche anno non lavoreremo più, ma saremo mantenuti dall’IA.

The Fedi just *shines* when we do Big Ideas. Herewith a very civilised conversation about gender, power, violence, colonialism, and how to unthink all the rubbish we get taught. Follow the thread right through; the original claim that "testosterone is more dangerous than CO2" is not the best way to challenge toxic masculinity, but the discussion includes more measured voices.

Archaeologists Keep Finding Women Where Men Were Supposed To Be

thenoosphere.substack.com/p/ar…

For thousands of years, men have systematically written women out of history.

Environmental collapse is the inevitable result of the rise of male supremacy because women have always been the guardians and protectors of nature.

Testosterone is far more dangerous than CO2

We must address core causes and the number one core cause is toxic white men.

¿Sabían que el nombre completo de Sam Puckett, el famoso personaje de la televisión juvenil, esconde un secreto mitológico que describe perfectamente su comportamiento caótico?


En el mundo de la televisión y la literatura existen moldes muy viejos para crear personajes. Históricamente, el papel del joven rebelde, rudo, con un apetito enorme y que resuelve todo con golpes físicos estaba reservado casi exclusivamente para los hombres. Sin embargo, las series iCarly y Sam y Cat rompieron este esquema al entregarle todas estas conductas a una protagonista femenina. Sam Puckett no solo adoptó estas características, sino que las llevó al extremo usando un calcetín lleno de mantequilla como arma defensiva y mostrando una obsesión total por la comida. Lo más interesante es que los creadores del programa no eligieron su identidad al azar, sino que colocaron pistas muy precisas dentro de sus propios nombres para avisarnos cómo iba a ser su personalidad.

La primera gran ironía se encuentra en su nombre, Sam, que es una forma corta de Samantha. Esta palabra significa textualmente "aquella que sabe escuchar". El chiste se cuenta solo al ver que el personaje se caracteriza por ignorar por completo las órdenes de los directores escolares, los consejos de sus amigos y cualquier tipo de norma social. Pero el dato verdaderamente profundo está en su apellido, Puckett. Esta palabra viene de los términos nórdicos e ingleses antiguos puca y puki, que se usaban en la época medieval para nombrar a un duendecillo travieso. De esta misma raíz proviene el famoso personaje Puck de la obra Sueño de una noche de verano del escritor William Shakespeare, quien se dedica a hacer bromas pesadas y desatar confusiones en el bosque.

Shakespeare tomó a este duende directamente de las leyendas de la mitología celta y británica, donde estos seres mitológicos son descritos como criaturas sumamente caóticas y temperamentales. Según los relatos antiguos, estos espíritus no son malos por naturaleza, pero les fascina armar alborotos, hacer trampas para molestar a los humanos y se calman únicamente si la gente les deja ofrendas de comida en las puertas de sus casas. Esta descripción encaja perfectamente con el comportamiento de Sam Puckett, quien es capaz de desatar el caos en cualquier lugar con sus inventos, pero se vuelve pacífica en cuanto aparece un plato de tocino o de pollo frito, demostrando que su actitud indomable tiene raíces que se remontan a los mitos más viejos de Europa, he aquí una razón más por la cual todos los que publicamos en esta cuenta admiramos y apreciamos bastante al personaje de Sam Puckett.

How many employees does @geofabrik have! 🏢🌍⚙️

62 ppl (55%) think 5→10.
35 (31%) think 1→5.

Of course, this poll is silly, cause “5“ is there twice. I noticed this after posting. 😅

There 5 people who work at Geofabrik! So 1→5 is the right answer! Geofabrik is smaller than many people think.

(I only do 80% time, so technically we're <5 “whole time equivalents”. Anyone who voted 1→5 wins. We also have some HeWis now)
