@[email protected] oh that's a pretty common thing I find. If you're a bootstrapper enough to be an economic migrant (rather than a political refugee) it's quite likely that you develop economic conservatism (social conservatism would also already be in place too). Survivor fallacy and all that. Even the latest US elections had this in spades.

@[email protected] I just need to emphasize all the bits that trigger the Islamophobia and anti-Asian racism.... HMMMM!!!!

@[email protected] you are not wrong but immigrants actually contribute to the economy and live in the society and not some enclave with rm25 beers XD

@[email protected] as long as the conclusion is "noooo!!!" 🤣

 

The most terrifying collection of words on my YouTube algo today: "Is Malaysia a Portugal alternative?" (from an expats podcast)

#stationery update: my Sterling Ink planners and notebooks have arrived! Plus me discovering a local leathermaker who does custom planner covers (I'm the one who's late to the game, he's got customers as far as Nigeria!). anyway, so now I have some thoughts on what's my aesthetic plan for next year, but that's for the next video perhaps.

@[email protected] apparently so! But as I was saying later in the replies, the thing is, Arabic script is used for multiple languages so, idk, even if I don't speak Urdu but I'm Pakistani-adjacent if I see this it's the equivalent of an anglophone seeing someone pointing out a supposedly french sentence but it's in upside down lettering 😂 so.... No one saw the mockups from any relevant language background???

 

This probably WOULD make sense to the people running AOC's leaflets campaign since it doesn't involve actual properly spelled words but anyway

The funniest SEA-related trivia I just learned was that Sufjan Stevens's parents were actually in a cult led by an Indonesian which is why that entire gwailo family has EXTREMELY INDONESIAN first names, and that motherfucker is basically Sopian!!! With a brother named Marzuki!!! HELP.

It's so funny (now that I'm making a return to photography on a separate camera) that I apparently had my heart set on a camera that's been causing strife and discord in the online photography circles, and here's me going, ooh I love Lumix (menus)! But I think I've been waiting for something like the S9, but of course I'm speaking as someone whose first proper digital camera spend is a Panasonic... Almost two decades ago. The only time I strayed is during the micro 4/3s era and for the form factor I went with an Olympus (then later a Fujifilm) and then I thought I could depend on smartphones because the Lumixes I could afford were always too bulky, so 2 birds 1 stone.

But now am back on the wagon. Didn't mean to make a post but I've been so bemused at the rep this camera got. It's great and all the design compromises worked out imo, and the killer features are genuinely killer #photography #lumix #lumixS9 #cats #sigmaLens

A neat mound of fried rice noodles that's glistening with seasoning and oil, draped with a fried egg that's been broken a little so the yolk is oozing out.

 

Reactivating my Flickr account (need a photodump spot without thinking about storage or being fed into AI) - I'll post the occasional updates here.
