Phat kaphrao (minced meat with basil) fried rice and a side dish of kerabu perut (tripe salad). These are heavily Thai-influenced dishes from northern Malaysia. #MakanApaToday#Food#TootSea
Currently my parents and I share an account with my bro. We do that not because we cant afford it but because we barely use it.
The answer for me is pretty simple - I will just stop sharing the account and only resubscribe when needed. This is what I do with other streaming channels, which, btw, are far cheaper than Netflix.
Indian origin Hindu guy who considers himself white and admires Nazi ideology crashes a truck into the white house to seize power.
Friends from SEA, do you have elite upper class people like these who consider themselves white and not Asian?
Btw... this is not the first instsnce of an upper caste Indian claiming "whiteness". There have been court cases by men requesting white status as early as pre first world war days.
#Malaysians, have you been getting more spam/scam calls? Someone bought over an acquintance's number & called me repeatedly
Each time I answered they either hung up or sounded unintelligible.
The latest call, I demanded to know who is she & she claimed she was from Aeon Credit. I told her my card is fully paid up. She demanded to see bank receipts.
Not bloody likely!
I hung up.
I get so many #scam calls these days I think I need to change my number 😑

This feel good video makes me emotional, but it’s also an example of how far queer people in Singapore have come (and how we continue to be oppressed). Many of us have found our way into lives and love, and social tolerance, yet we aren’t allowed very much beyond the annual park gathering in pink (where our foreign spouses and children are physically and legally not allowed to enter)
This is probably going to be controversial but what the heck.
I avoid Asian lit that the West celebrates because they tend to be "Harrowing Tales of Sad, Traumatised Asians". I'm not sure why the West find them so fascinating (though my mind thinks of rather uncharitable ideas). I especially despise stories set in colonial times.
I'm totally fine with "Tales of Murderous Asians", however.
To which I will happily recommend Keigo Higashino.
#Malaysia's KTM intercity trains are less popular that the LRT. But I take it precisely because of this.
I get a seat
I am exposed to less COVID
Granted - I am lucky to be able to go to the office outside of regular working hours so do notbhave to endure the rush hour crush.
But even during "crush hour", KTM trains have more literal breathing room.
Melt coconut and palm sugar. Add coconut. Make pandan coconut milk batter. Put on a Siti Nurhaliza and Jaclyn Victor playlist. Make 60 pieces of kueh ketayap / dadar. Sing Malay songs at the top of your voice.
This is the Way of Kueh (an actual cookbook you should buy)
@mastodonindians Software Freedom Law Center, India is challenging the ban of free and open source software apps that protect user privacy through encryption and federation in the High Court of Kerala.
Whipped up a quick lunch for one: shell pasta, diced fishballs, garlic, onion, and capers smothered in sweet tomato sauce and a teaspoon of sambal oelek for a bit of spicy kick.
The Singapore government blocked me on Twitter after I said ‘fuck off’ when they posted a 7 page infographic on all the ways they were planning to protect heterosexual marriage from the gays, but they think other people perpetuate cancel culture
