  • Ich hab den Comic Malika - Warrior Queen vom nigerianischen Comicartist Roye Okupe gelesen. Ich find’s total spannend, zumal er viele Elemente aus der westafrikanischen Yorubakultur einbaut. Zwischen den Kapiteln gibt es immer wieder kurze Erklärungen, auf welchen historischen Fakten aus der Geschichte Westafrikas er bestimmte Dinge basiert hat. Man kennt in Deutschland ja eher Fantasy basiert auf europäischer oder japanischer Mythologie, da fand ich eine Fantasy-Comicreihe basierend auf westafrikanischer Mythologie mal sehr interessant.


  • I’ve worked at a cleaning job where the smokers were allowed to go outside whenever. Some even went on a smoke break several times per hour. The nonsmokers like me on the other hand were reprimanded if we sat down and drank something outside of the scheduled break. I complained, but the boss was a smoker and just told me they need their smoke break but I don’t need coffee… One coworker whom I talked to about that even said they started smoking because of this and because the non-smokers were expected to work more and cover for the smokers on their cigarette breaks.
