Careful, guys!

Apparently one of PH's most successful initiatives but it is giving me "they are going to kidnap me" vibes for some reason. I will try it either this week or the next. Let's see if I survive 🀣

I pinned my post but for some reason can't unpin it πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Yeah I tried clicking on the three dot menu but I don't see the unpin optkon Weird

Any help appreciated!

 

For the life of me, I can't seem to find the unpin button. Do let me know how to do so. Also, I was told that I can schedule posts, but I haven't seen that option either. I'm currently using Lemmy via the browser.

So drama. As if she's the one working on Jira tickets 8 hours a day to buy her kibble.

It would be a hit series on Netflix

 

When I showed this page to an ang moh friend she went like,, "this seems exaggerated". πŸ€”

I mean, they still pretty much operate like they're in the 2010s

Remember that epic LRT breakdown that stalled so ma y people? (OK there have been several but hear me out) But anyway I was supposed to meet a friend for dinner that night and he thought he will be stuck in KL till late night. I told him to take the Skypark Link instead. He never heard about it, but took it and was at our dinner early. He evaded the epic stuck Ness in KL and rode in comfort home.

Rip Skypark Link tho 😭

Someone just passive-aggressively reminded me I could block people on Mastodon, and if I can't adhere to CW requests perhaps I should get off Mastodon. Wow, I've only beeon on the Internet since 1999, Twitter since 2008 and Mastodon last November. I don't know how to block ah? Wah.

these Mastodon HOA people are one kind.

PS: A few days ago, I blew my top when someone told me to CW my food photos. Since food is the way us Malaysians talk to each other on Mastodon, I feel it's really too much they ask me to CW. Since then a few people explained that food can be triggering to people with eating disorders. But then other people say CW can also worsen eating disorders. Apalah you cannot win. Why don't they leave us alone lol. I think i'll just limit my posts to #MakanApaToday and #FediTiam and exclude #Food cos I dah fed up with the HOA* people. This is sad cos I use #Food so we can reach non-Malaysians, but it attracts the hornets. Maybe I use #expatasia instead (someone asked me to include the hashtag so the expats can find these posts)

All of this nonsense makes me glad that we have a "safe" space here on monyet.cc, where we can be completely Malaysian without some reply dude/dudette come and lecture you for melanggar some cultural rule you are not even aware of. I feel more relaxed here. A bit sad. I now understand why Black Twitter never felt comfortable enough in the Fediverse.

*Home Owners Association - people on Mastodon who patrol it to make sure everyone behave and follow rules. Like prefects, but worse.

 

But if you want food you better let me pack πŸ˜…

Haha dang. I am not great with git yet, still learning. But maybe we can sort of keep an ever expanding list that people can add to. What platform is good for that?

[–] penangkia@monyet.cc 0 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I am all for that haha. I remember we used to have a blog directory of Malaysian blogs. I wish we had that again. Can we build something like that?

 

So I love reading personal blogs. I have been enjoying Substacks and blogs I found but lately I am longing for more diversity. Almost all the blogs I can find are from the West.

Can any of you recommend me any good personal blogs written by South East Asians (especially Malaysians) or other Asians? I seem to find that Malaysians like to blog about three things: Food, politics and money πŸ˜‚ I prefer not to read those, tho food doesn't hurt I suppose but will get a bit tired after a while

I prefer genuinely personal blogs that are slice of life stuff. If you know of any please recommend to me! πŸ™

IMHO the selection is great. I bought a big bag (mostly for friends - jadi personal shopper lol) and it only came up to RM100.

 

To work or to go to the Mph warehouse sale at Summit, USJ - that's the question 😁
