人生嘅意義，同一張櫈差唔多。無論你設計有幾精密，物料有幾上乘，手工有幾無瑕，只有坐喺你上面嘅人，先能夠為你嘅存在，賦予意義。佢可能係行咗好遠路，需要休息。佢可能係接受唔到眼前事實嘅衝擊，需要支撐身體平行。佢可能係上緊網、打緊機。佢可能係思考緊人生意義、寫緊下一句引起時代共鳴嘅歌詞。有時候，作為一張櫈嘅我哋，根本冇選擇。

點解《蜘蛛俠》一直都冇過時？ https://t.co/kFMKf9QoFI
Peter Parker 最後學識嘅，其實都係每一個成年人遲早要學識嘅一課。

救到紐約，都交唔到租。
成功，換唔返 Aunt May / Uncle Ben。
名氣，買唔返同最愛嘅人多一個下午。
Spider-Man 冇教過我哋點樣做英雄。佢只係教我哋一件更難嘅事。
點樣做一個人。

Why We Still Love Spider-Man https://t.co/y1CQLuxoVB

The spider bite made Peter Parker extraordinary.
Love, loss, responsibility, and ordinary decency made him human.
And perhaps that is why we still love Spider-Man.
Because he was never really teaching us how to become superheroes.
He was teaching us what it means to remain human.

如果我哋愛惜「香港人」呢個名，就應該對以「香港人」呢個名參政嘅人要求更高 https://t.co/8xL6CiYzrQ

一個強調自己香港人身份嘅候選人，必然會受惠於呢份累積多年嘅好感。呢件事本身冇問題。每個候選人都會借助自己嘅歷史、社群同人脈。

但前人累積嘅信用，唔係免費。

If We Value the Hongkonger Name, We Must Demand More of Those Who Carry It https://t.co/QlA0Kz7CUB

Build credibility first. Friendships come next. Influence last—if it has been earned.

Make Canada stronger first. When the time comes to speak for Hong Kong, for freedom or for Canada’s national interest, we will no longer stand alone.

Hongkonger support can bring a candidate to the starting line. Earning the trust of the wider public is the real test.
If we value the Hongkonger name, we must expect those who carry it into public life to rise above the local average.

CBC used these two titles:
“Republican revenge against Anthony Fauci”
“Republicans cast Fauci as pandemic-era villain in fiery Senate hearing”
CBC is funded by Canadian taxpayers—not the U.S. Democratic Party.
So why does it sound like the Democratic Party’s communications office?

The Question We Were Told Not to Ask
"The pandemic became one of the darkest periods in modern public life. Government statements, legacy-media narratives and platform enforcement reinforced one another, whether or not anyone had formally coordinated them.
“Misinformation” sometimes meant an obvious falsehood. At other times, it was applied to unresolved questions. Fact-checking drifted from checking verifiable facts into deciding which doubts could be expressed without punishment or ridicule.
That should trouble journalists. It should trouble everyone."

The Question We Were Told Not to Ask https://t.co/dBeOF2erzS

"The real test is not the contempt vote. It is whether Congress, the scientific establishment and the press will pursue the missing records with even a fraction of the energy they spent judging the people who asked for them.
Between 2020 and 2023, the pandemic was associated with an estimated 22.1 million excess deaths, including indirect deaths.
They cannot request the records.
We can."

傳媒，定係宣傳機器？

"如果國際足壇對某位阿根廷球星嘅偏袒，令世界盃同足球本身蒙羞——國際主流傳媒對福奇（Anthony Fauci）嘅保護，只會有過之而無不及。
足球最多影響一場比賽。
疫情影響嘅係數以十億計人口、數以百萬計生命，以及一整代人對政府、科學同傳媒嘅信任。"

功課做得太多，會愈做愈蠢？ https://t.co/DQWkBquH2y

"由細到大，佢哋想食嘅零食、想試嘅新奇事物，只要合理，屋企又負擔得到，通常都源源不絕。
所以佢哋去到同學屋企，見到雪糕、汽水、薯片，從來唔會稀罕。
呢個就係我理解嘅「好奇害死貓」——唔係唔畀佢哋好奇。係唔使佢哋渴求。
No desire, no temptation.
當你唔急住從別人身上得到任何嘢，人哋就冇咁容易控制你。"

你可能一直睇錯《西遊記》：孫悟空真正打唔贏嘅，從來都唔係妖怪

"孫悟空由一嚿冇名冇姓嘅石頭，行到最後成為鬥戰勝佛。
佢成功咗。
但如果所謂成功，係將嗰個大鬧天宮、冇人管得住嘅自己，改造成一個服從使命嘅人，咁佢又算唔算輸咗？
佢得到地位、資源、名分同影響力。
代價係五百年、一道金箍，同一個再都返唔到去嘅花果山。"

十幾歲時，我讀過蔡志忠（Tsai Chih-chung）畫嘅《菜根譚》漫畫。

多年後重新讀《菜根譚》，其中一句忽然令我停咗落嚟：
欲做精金美玉的人品，定從烈火中煅來；思立掀天揭地的事功，須向薄冰上履過。

少年時讀到嘅係烈火。
今次真正令我停低嘅，卻係薄冰。

Chu Wai Tak: The Man Who Helped Hong Kong See Itself https://t.co/fQktnxsWMW

Following his passing, tributes poured in from across Hong Kong's cultural, media and travel communities. Many remembered his encyclopedic knowledge. Others recalled his generosity, patience and infectious enthusiasm. Yet perhaps the most fitting tribute came from the countless ordinary people who discovered, through Chu's books, broadcasts and guided walks, that their own city possessed a history worth knowing.

The King of Drama
"He set out to build a stage for Hong Kong.
In the end, he turned Hong Kong itself into a stage—one filled with extraordinary talent."

Why Good Advocates Don’t Always Make Good Leaders
"Before asking whether a candidate can change the world, voters should ask what that person has already built, managed or repaired. Have they balanced competing interests under real constraints? Have they administered a serious budget? Have they accepted responsibility for failure rather than merely claiming credit for good intentions? And have they demonstrated an ability to govern people who disagree with them?
Identifying what is broken is the beginning of leadership. It is never leadership itself."

The Show Must Go On
"Long before the city became an international financial centre, before its skyline became famous and before audiences around the world discovered its cinema, Hong Kong first had to believe that its own stories were worth telling.
Patrick Tse's generation helped make that possible.
One imagines him adjusting his jacket, putting on those unmistakable sunglasses, offering the familiar half-smile that generations of Hong Kong people came to know so well, and quietly walking off the stage.
But perhaps those five words were never really about him."

The Star Behind the Stars
"In her later years, Shi was repeatedly asked whether Hong Kong cinema was dying. She admitted that it had sometimes appeared to lose its direction. Then she watched younger directors emerge with films of unmistakably local character—films that could only have come from Hong Kong.
She refused to sign the death certificate of the cinema she had spent her life building. She had witnessed too many apparent endings that turned out to be intervals, too many moments when something seemed finished but was merely changing its form.
Perhaps she understood what Hong Kong has repeatedly had to learn: an edge is only an ending if no one is willing to cross it."

California made it illegal for any election in the state to require ID. This is nuts.

Is it normal and acceptable for a towing company to charge my credit card $265.50 for changing a spare tire and then not showing up? It's been almost two hours.
