I understand his stance, but that’s not the way to protest. His actions were selfish—immediate repercussions include festival cancellation, adversely impacting vendors, attendees, and everyone else that might’ve benefited from having international musical acts in Malaysia.
But in the longer-term, he’s made it that much harder for other international artists to bring their music to a country that sorely needs it and brought more scrutiny upon the LGBTQ+ community (who struggle as it is).
If he wanted to protest the anti-LGBT laws, 1975 should’ve just not come to Malaysia. Poor form on his part.
I have been on tretinoin for a while, and now that I have increased the % at the recommendation of my derm I am flakey as hell. I am looking for a GENTLE physical exfoliant, preferably something that isn't a face wash type thing since my skin hates everything and breaks out even if the water changes 😒
I don’t do it very often, but when I do, I’m partial to konjac sponges that are softened with water first and then very gently use it to slough off dry skin from tret.
TL;DR: it’s milk thistle tea. Specifically, “Stipulating that it needs to be the spiky heart of the milk thistle, the plant needs to be brewed for 20 minutes to ensure it is bitter.”

Sounds a bit like Malaysia, where the “The Yang di-Pertuan Agong [the constitutional monarch] is elected by the Conference of Rulers, comprising the nine rulers of the Malay states, with the office de facto rotated between them, making Malaysia one of the world’s few elective monarchies.”
I’m mostly loving Liftoff, especially the UI once I messed with some appearance settings, but one thing that bothers me is that whenever I switch to another app or press the Overview button on my Android, it’ll reload back to my default view instead of going back to the post I was working with or reading....
I’m not too proud to admit that I love good (bad?) reality TV. I’ve been watching stuff like Big Brother for years. More recently, I’ve been gobbling up all of the various Below Deck variants…they’re great! I enjoyed Jury Duty, though I think it falls in a little different category than the other examples. I really...
Recent romantic partners always want to shower together and I couldn’t imagine anything more irritating. How do people get themselves properly clean while someone else is there fondling you? Sure, they can help scrub your back but maybe I need some space and privacy to clean all the BITS, you know?...

What would you call a monarchist government where multiple families rules in turns?

Showering with romantic partners: overrated

So where are we all supposed to go now? / It’s the end of a social era on the web. That’s probably a good thing. But I already miss the places that felt like everyone was there. (www.theverge.com)
Hey y’all should check the app (i.imgur.com)
They have a remix of “I will remember you” that I haven’t seen anyone on the internet talk about.
