+To everyone in Canada, celebrating or not, remember our country that we live in today celebrates a Queen that let over a million Irish starve to death and a million more flee the country.
I think maybe it’s about time we separate ourselves from monarchy. Why do we not just take the Queen’s face off our money ? Wake up.What they don’t teach you in history class.
Anonymous asked: How do you feel about somali girls only wanting to marry ajnabi's
To be honest I find it kind of annoying, how can you be 100% somali and put down your own brothers like that as if you’re too good for them? You prefer to marry an arab or any other african guy, it’s understandable being open to other cultures, that’s totally fine but mashallah our brothers are just as good as anyone else. And if an arab guy or anyone else doesn’t want to be with you, don’t come crawling back to your somali brothers.
