When will they leave this family alone ffs?!

I mean, Israel has been honest about their intentions from the beginning. It’s other governments that are saying otherwise; desperately praying that their citizens have no reading or listening comprehension, so they can funnel more taxpayers’ money into enriching weapon’s merchants.

Well, we’ll find out about other militaries soon enough. Stock prices for weapon’s manufacturers have been booming. The US and EU want a convenient weapon’s testing ground and a canal to gas fields out of this.

The biggest loser is always innocent civilians at home and abroad.

That’s so scummy wtf?!

Judging from how brisk weapons sales have been? Not only are these governments complicit, they are delighted at the death of Palestinians.

I like this. Hope to see it on more highways.

The settler colonists have so little love for thousand year old indigenous trees the metaphor almost writes itself. They will grow imported pine trees after they’re done.

Lol, why are we banning it? Shouldn’t Indonesia ban it on their end instead?

The entirety of Hozier’s Unreal Unearth album. Again. What can I say, I’m hooked.

Your rendang looks really good!

The new Hozier album is just so good!

Divers by Joanna Newsom. I love the cyclical arrangement of her songs with the last line of her last song looping back to the first line of her first song. I think it really illustrates what she’s trying to say about the nature of love and time.

I remember this case, so glad that their families have finally gotten some closure. The treatment of Orang Asal in this country is just shameful.

Salam dari kbin!

They will very literally get cancelled by local government before any nutjob in the public gets to them.

If you skim the guidelines in the document I linked, one of the things artistes must do is submit a copy of all of their lyrics to be checked for inappropriate content. Then there’s the clothing guidelines for male and female artistes, behavior guidelines, topic restrictions in banter etc.

After you pass all that, your ticket prices have to be adjusted to the local currency and buying power of the local market. 30% of your crew has to be local (understandable stipulation, but for Singapore you only need minimum 1 local to be hired and paid full salary to scale).

End of the day, we might have the facilities and expertise needed to mount a show, but the hassle is too much for too little return.

A part of me suspects that it’s also a lot more troublesome to apply to perform in Malaysia. The last time I checked, the organising company in Singapore just needs to have the right entertainment license and they can easily apply for a work permit for artists. Whereas Malaysia has this 39 page beauty.

And if you’re holding your concert in Sabah/Sarawak you have to submit your application twice to PUSPAL and the state government. Yeah, it’s not looking good for us.

We all know schools are so ineffectual when it comes to that and the students interviewed seem to have very well thought out and nuanced views on the issue.

I think the opinions of the students should hold more weight over that of the teachers and parents here. If they are alright with uniforms but want more relaxed hairstyle rules, that should be the way to go.

On the subject of parenting classes though, YES GOD PLEASE SOMEBODY DO IT.

I understand the kids, nobody wants to open up new avenues for bullying.

I think that’s a little bit more difficult since most people want to trade. Sometimes someone will put their collection on google drive and share via links on tumblr or twitter, but those occasions are few and far in between.

Ooh, fun fact! Did you know the It Ain’t Much But It’s Honest Work meme guy was a proponent of no till farming and was a leader in the movement advocating for and utilizing the farming practices suggested in this article?

Dave Brandt passed away in May this year, but his honest work? It meant so much.
