'Man are a sad lot.' -- Machiavelli
Last 2025 photo @ the Rosy spot.

I laid down on the snow 10 yrs ago today.

In 2025, I've learnt many things that're worth doing more.

10 yrs ago, I was self-centered.

In 2025, I still am- only hiding it better.

10 yrs ago, I wanna break free.

In 2025, I wanna break free to search for truths.

Not surprised to see how easy money can make people betraying and isolating the context of the human rights that they claim to fight

No wonder why people start to see Trump as representing "American values" more than this bunch of selfish pro-Democratic cowards.

They make Charlie Kirk look good.

Refugees in Kenya have died at food distribution centers, officials noted, including a pregnant woman crushed to death during a stampede. Aid workers said they expected more people to get hurt “as vulnerable households become increasingly desperate.”

If you're listening to the GOP's narrative around the MN shooter's gender identity and getting déjà vu, you're not alone.

Right-wingers tried to claim that "Guns don’t kill people. Trans people do." after a 2023 mass shooting in Nashville, too.
Republicans are trying to link mass shootings to trans people
"We seem to be watching the rise of trans terrorism."

‘’決志的問題,是領功,一種毫無根據的自豪感。你叫一個人決志,就沾沾自喜,但栽培工作撒手不管。教會是差勁的算術,只數前門入,不看後門出。入教就算你功勞,此人停滯不前、他日離教,那所謂領信的人卻不被懲罰。

教會已充斥大量所謂「白白恩典」的領受者,以廉價的衝動宗教消費,決志成為基督徒,卻又從不知道要與基督同死同活的真正入門真理!

決志文化如此最大的問題,是用一個假開始,令你永遠不能真正開始,惡毒之處,是以假貨堵塞你買到真貨的渠道。‘’

🚨NEW: The Israeli government banned journalists on their PR aid flight from filming Gaza from above.

They told journalists the air drops would be cancelled if they broadcast any footage of the destruction below.

A rogue state trying to hide its genocide. Israel won’t ever come back from all this.

As I just said on CNN, my father's parents were Nakba survivors. I don't want Israeli children to live in fear and I don't want Palestinian children to starve to death. There is nothing anyone could do to make me put nationalistic talking points above basic human rights.

By slashing teams that gather critical data, the Trump administration has left the federal government with no way of understanding if policies are working — and created a black hole of information whose consequences could ripple out for decades.

Enough media talk of Israel “hitting targets”. There’s no precision. The one target is Gaza, indiscriminately. An internationally-recognised genocide.

And no more “fragile ceasefire” talk. It was never a ceasefire if one side refused to cease fire.

Last night’s death toll: 413, many children.

NEW: The Washington Post has pulled out of an agreement to run an ad in its newspaper criticising Elon Musk. This is despite signing an agreement to publish it.

The lack of logic and practicality in some of these programs, dare I say, have attributed to the increasing support to right-wing populism. Their structural design definitely needs a big retool.
The problem is not diversity training — it’s DEI-washing
