putting @jonnysun 's poem here to remind myself that I can always find my way around. it doesn't have to be this isolating

[Vivian @suchnerve]

Give yourself an easy little project. Doesn’t matter how small it is. It just needs to be something that requires some thinking.

It can even as minor as reorganizing all your app icons or going through your kitchen and throwing away all the expired food. Just do something.

Once you realize you've essentially aged out of the majority of YouTube content, the trick is to just watch actual TV and documentaries again. It's way better anyway.

I like to talk/draw about it so much because I am asked about it so much, truth is *I* am still processing all the ways I change

This is why you should make your career a series of experiences and not an identity

if you heavily intellectualize and overly analyze your feelings, somatic therapy is usually very very helpful bc we tend to not be connected to our bodies at all

In Malaysia they teach us UK English at school but since we're likely exposed to US media such as movies and songs our English becomes mixed.

Even more interesting Manglish 🇲🇾

if you’re neurodivergent this problem just keeps recurring at higher and higher levels of abstraction (behavioral, emotional, conceptual) until you die

this is going to sound pretentious but i don’t know how adults read YA novels and YA novels only. i’m reading one now because a friend recommended it to me and it’s not bad at all, but its so clearly meant for teenagers. i can’t imagine choosing to only read books at this level.

I used to think this, but then I asked the follow up question which is “have I given anyone a reason to care about me”? And when I didn’t like the answer to that question I started to change things

parents love giving you job hunting and career advice that are like “Have you tried destroying and betraying yourself for nothing”

Thinking about how the decline of social science academia in Malaysia since its golden age in 1960-80s has so much to do with this observation on "intellectual containment" by Meredith Weiss (2011) in Student Activism in Malaysia.

[⚰️ @apparitionnow]

weird question. but does anyone know of short term courses or certifications in the arts or humanities that I can complete? I'm looking for something to study or learn that I can teach/facilitate/practice that enriches my life, not make me a better corporate professional. RT pls!

In the past, there was a lot of overlap between the left-wing Malay nationalists and the Malay Islamists. I recommend this book on the history of PAS

I know a guy whose level of discipline and drive pushes me to do better with my life. I remember telling him that each time we have ever hung out (it has probably only been twice or thrice in the last three years), I have gone on to do great things for myself.

[Vivian @suchnerve]

Cannot recommend highly enough that you switch from a defensive “That’s not true about me!” to an offensive “Haha wow you’re bad at reading people”
