The freedom to be able to walk and shop in places without worrying about a shooting is something Malaysians take for granted. I cannot imagine living with that kind of possibility in my life. You know what else we take for granted? The fact that Malaysia is free of most natural disasters like earthquakes and volcanoes and such.

Darn I have just completed what I have put off for months - clear the many bags of "stuff" in my home office and finally made it decent 🤣
Also assembled the side cabinet for the study and the rack for the kitchen. Also planted a few Brazilian spinach shoots.

I feel terribly productive today. 💪

How feral were Gen X kids?

Well, I taught my younger sister to jump off the second floor of the house to land in the couch below. I mean sure, just an inch off target and there's be a few broken bones. But hey we survived.

The couch didn't.

Ok, so I claim my feral badge, I think I totally earned it.

Gave in and just ordered a standing desk with those fancy buttons where you can raise the thing. And I ordered a LONG table, just like how I like it. I like to scatter all my things when I work lol

The channels I get my geopolitical insights and news from. Now you can decide whether to like or hate me or funnel me in the right political box 🤣

Jokes aside, I try my best to get perspectives from around the world. I used to have an African alt media channel I followed but lost it 😭

Squee! Just witnessed the sunbird parents teaching their little chick how to fly. So the three birds were flying here and there in my balcony. Only managed to capture a pic of the chick on the shelf. Isn't it cute and fluffy??

I was cancelled before the word even became a thing. It definitely changes you in a big way. For one, you realise the world is not black & white, and you see the irritational reactions of those who hold deep ideological beliefs when you decide to leave/change it. It's very much tribal. And you also get more empathatic to both sides of an ideology because you were once one of them. You also end up very allergic to triablism & tribal attitudes of all kind.

So happy I took the time to learn #Dataview. It's going to be revolutionary for my vault. It'll help me create main topic pages to keep track of my notes. I used to manually link every note to a "MOC" but I kept forgetting and found it tedious. This is going to be a "leave it and let grow" thing, and it suits my #ADHD brain immensely lol.
And how great it is that the
#Obsidian anticipated our annoyance with YAML and come up with the properties feature? Genius.

Not that YAML is difficult to learn, but it's written by a fusspot. :blobfoxcomputer:

I have resigned myself to learn how to use Dataview even tho I hate YAML with a passion 🥴

If you're a celebrity, don't just simply send your followers to "find" someone because she happened to be your fan when she was 10. My friend is currently being stalked and bombarded by strangers, and her Linkedin profile is shared everywhere. Unfortunately, she has to use Linkedin for work so this is making her highly uncomfortable.
Not all fans want to meet you, believe it or not!

It's funny how I wanted #Obsidian be my everything at first. I used it as a task manager, project manager etc. Now I've moved work-related stuff out of my vault. Now use my co's Confluence to store project & meeting notes for my knowledge base, and my tasks in Todoist.
My vault can now focus on what Obsidian does best - a #PKM note taking app for my passions rather than a productivity tool.

liztai, 11 days ago to ADHD

Found Tony Romella & feel that he gets me. Even his #Obsidian vault is organised like mine! A totally underrated #PKM Youtuber with an ADHD bent.
ND folks do think very differently. For eg, I just can't do Tiago Forte's PARA system. I have this "out of sight out of mind" thing we #ADHD folks seem to have. If I stash my files in a folder, I forget it even exists. It gets worse if there are subfolders. Like Tony, I have a hybrid system & use notebooks. Coincidence?

I think the scariest thing is I often use this particular monorail line. Usually on Wednesdays. If it had been tomorrow...
Unfortunately one person died in this incident 😔

One of the tenets of building language vocabulary is to learn vocab that interests you. I notice I remember the words so much easier because of it. Here's a list of some words that my brain just 👀 when it heard them：
昏迷不醒 in a coma
法馆 judge
去世 died
方剂 prescription

Feel like there's a theme in here somehow 😅
