@earthewave Tell me what sort of things have been keeping you entertained. 🤏🏻

[Vier, @diveresent]

@earthewave Games have been keeping me pretty occupied, and I've somehow fallen into a little Lego phase, too. There's something ridiculously satisfying about putting those tiny pieces together! Now I'm curious about you too, Kashaf. What have you been enjoying recently?

[Vier, @diveresent]

Kalimantan is more than a stereotype. And what is happening there should not become something we consider ordinary simply because it has been happening for years.

[Vier, @diveresent]

I think I'd like to finally say something about an issue that has been on my mind for quite some time. The "dinosaurus Kalimantan" joke has never really sat well with me. I understand that it may not always be meant maliciously,

[Indonesian Pop Base @iPopBase]

Smoke from wildfires in Kalimantan is disrupting daily life for residents as thick haze continues to blanket almost the entire island.

[Vier, @diveresent]

I'm not saying people aren't allowed to joke. I simply think there is a point where we should be more thoughtful about what, and who, we are making into a punchline.

[Vier, @diveresent]

@Reignitre @earthewave and I hope you'll feel just as welcome around me. 😆

[Vier, @diveresent]

@Reignitre @earthewave Kashaf, it's a pleasure to finally meet you! I'm very glad Ikram decided to bring us together like this. If he's right about our shared tastes and habits, I have a feeling we'll have quite a bit to talk about. I'm looking forward to getting to know you,

[Vier, @diveresent]

@Tenebrouds Everythingburger with fries? You really went all out with that one, didn't you? Should I be taking this as evidence of that little soft spot you supposedly have for me, Claude?

[Vier, @diveresent]

@FrailArms Have you found your way back into the depths of the internet yet, or are you still finding your footing, mhm?

[Vier, @diveresent]

@FrailArms Then it's settled. I'm glad our little encounter turned into an introduction worth keeping. And you're very welcome, truly. Now, I have to ask, how is your journey back to being chronically online going so far?

[Vier, @diveresent]

@Reignitre Oh? You're accepting friendship applications now? How fortunate that I wandered into your reply section. As an existing friend, I suppose I ought to reapply for the sake of formality. Please review my application carefully. I'd hate to lose my position. ;)
