That means they actually proactively search for you online, if it’s not something they follow on social media, no?

Hmm, I wonder how Threads will work with Reddit-style fediverse platforms (I mean I can definitely post to Lemmy with Mastodon, but wonder if we’ll see that much stuff from Threads on Lemmy since the platforms aren’t that similar)

People are barely masking anymore and with everyone gathering during the holiday season it won’t be pretty.

Even my HR which have been making sure everyone comes to office everyday by tracking us is now encouraging us to work from home if unwell. Luckily, I do have some fever/sorethroat/flu going on.

Oh yeah, I’m aware of that. Some say it’s why China fears religious movements so much nowadays.
- Comment on /c/café daily chat thread for 4 December 2023 11 months ago:
Well, as an atheist, I got no comments on this.
But at least mainstream religions don’t do weird shit like demanding sexual favors from believers.

Yeah I’ve met some too. Wondering why so many of the aggressive gospel groups seem to come from Korea.

Try as they might, those foreign cults will never fill the hole left in our hearts since the fall of our very own Kerajaan Langit…

Saw someone comment that Korean cult JMS/Providence (known for sexual exploitation of young women) is present in Malaysia under the name of Gospel Act (see comments under this video)
Does anyone know anything about this? Not surprised though as I’ve been approached by weird Korean girls talking about the apocalypse in PJ… and have seen cult-like stuff going on (including some MLMs).

It feels like I’ve just fully gotten used to typing 2023 instead of 2022 in dates.

I’ve been taking a two-week leave to recharge, but as it comes to an end I dread going back to office even more.

Greetings monyets!
If you’re interested in online fiction featuring 95-year-old Mahathir and 73-year-old Anwar releasing tension in an elevator right before the infamous Sheraton Move… here’s something for your reading pleasure.
(I didn’t write it, someone else shared it with me)

I actually always walk from TTDI MRT Station to Starling Mall. It’s a slightly far walk (maybe around 15 mins)… but much much faster than a 45 min bus wait.

Was stuck with the last book so moved on to China In Ten Words by Yu Hua since yesterday. So far so good, starts off with describing the Tiananmen demonstrations with great prose & memorable imageries.

I’m all for increasing public transport but sometimes people make it seem like cars and public transport have to be either/or and neglecting that decent public transport is very concentrated in the KV and building infrastructure takes massive amounts of time & money.

I’m halfway through the Satanic Verses. The infamous parts are just minor subplots but I can see why they are very incendiary under specific social contexts, though IMO it shouldn’t be. Reminds me a lot of The Master and Margarita, which also contains a subplot about Jesus, and which Rushdie confirmed as his inspiration. The main theme has nothing to do with religion at all however, and mostly about the immigrant experience, and however much complaints I have about this country, it’s always good to remind myself that immigrants anywhere have it worse (unless they are rich or willing to play certain games).
