A Smooth-coated Otter (Lutrogale perspicillata) spotted at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve, Singapore on 15 Dec 2024. It was sandbathing on the path, then moved behind the shelter in the background for some privacy. There, I managed to make eye contact with it.

Burmese-Singaporean thinker Yan Naung Oak has a lovely piece on 'Seapunks':
Not scifi, which romanticizes technology; not cyberpunk, nor solarpunk.
But a uniquely SE Asian concept. Mandalas, Myanmar, environmentalism, capitalism and other topics:
'Captures our culture of living with and finding ways to thrive in a world that will continue to be neither completely utopian nor dystopian.'
I always enjoy Yan's work

I helped a friend apply for a tourist visa to Singapore and it was approved in 1.5 hours
I wrote how to do it (any Singapore citizen, permanent resident or Singapore company can do it)
Most people don't need visas, but people from India / China do

Today a book I ordered arrived. It's a children's book about a young girl who plays chess and the obstacles she faces. Kyla Zhao was born in Singapore and previewed the novel at last year's World Chess Championship, which was held there.

Building a #DualState need not end in #genocide: Vladimir #Putin’s #Russia & #LeeKuanYew’s #Singapore have followed the same model of the dual state that Fraenkel described, though neither has undertaken a mass-killing operation as the Nazis did [Putin has, just not within Russian borders on a genocidal scale]. Their deepest similarity, rather, is that both are intolerant of #PoliticalDissent & leave the overwhelming majority of citizens alone.
A Metalmark Moth, Saptha beryllitis, spotted at Springleaf Nature Park, Singapore on 14 Dec 2024. With a flash and the correct angle, you can get brilliant metallic colours reflecting from its body and wings.

When I was in college in Singapore, I lived walking distance from Little India. I was a bit of a night owl then. Most of my friends were students from India and Nepal. No special reason, it just was. I found the local Singaporean students very boring and I never got on with them (I’m Singaporean).
One of my friends from Nepal took me to an apartment in little India where you had to knock a secret knock, then someone would open, and if they recognized you, they’d open the door and you could go in and sit in the living room and they’d give you homemade noodles, momo and tea.
The other customers were often Bhutanese monks and Nepali salespeople. My friend introduced me to everyone.
Sometimes when I see the shiny fancy veneer of shiny Singapore, I remember how my favorite parts of Singapore are these fleeting moments and spaces I got to experience as a local with deep networks and curiosity. I prefer that Singapore of my memories.

It’s been a very rainy couple of days in #Singapore. The rain has been virtually nonstop, which is unusual for this region where tropical storms and sunny weather usually alternate within hours.
It made the news that Singapore was 71F today! Rare. Almost never. Haha

Singapore ‘politician’ (who has never won anything): I will stop using homophobia as my party platform if you don’t field an openly lesbian candidate
Fuck off, GMS and your ‘party’
I feel like I can laugh about him coz he’s such a loser and has no chance in hell, but all of this is making me concerned about what happens when we have a homophobic populist politician
