- Realising how limited my knowledge 🇮🇩 is (🇦🇺’s closest neighbour, 🏠 of a language I was almost fluent in), I was forced to face how shallowly I conceive of most countries (aside from 🇦🇺 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 🇮🇱) is. Exhibit A: 🇨🇦 🍁 syrup/leaf, poutine, “nice” rep, Pierre/Justin T, SCTV & ➡️soz youtu.be/gFAT8_5hPWA?...

- Both of these hit me hard, especially (2). (1) lots of us can relate (@matthewblott.bsky.social was lamenting the SPLC this morning) but (2) must be so alienating given you’re in Asia. What is it specifically you distrust & is it only on Twitter or also IRL you’re experiencing this?

- #New #hashtag #just #dropped 👇 #HowOctober7ChangedMe NB: You don’t have to be Israeli or Jewish to use it. I know that October 7 and the days/ months that followed changed a lot of people. Also cultural appropriation is dumb & racist! Let’s all enjoy everything always. Peace and love, man ✌️☮️🕊️😘

- Dear @kathleenstock1.bsky.social, Re: the last lezzo ep, ‘shipping’ comes from ‘relationship’ - unusually logical for internet slang! Here’s a terrific musical object lesson from the best tv show in television history (I’m a TV historian so claim lived experience here!) youtu.be/24eVmr9b5kM?...

- I sometimes force myself to listen to YouTube videos espousing views I abhor to test my intellectual openness/ epistemic curiosity. Often I can’t last beyond a few minutes (!) but I listened to this whole thing. Her thoughts on divorce are … a lot although mine’s acceptable to her! (Twas my fault!)
