I never call myself a volunteer for Aspies. The features of today's economy is, people literally work for free in a sophisticated manner, for the good of humanity, outside their work or maybe school time.
I feel that we're expounding on one of the most underdeveloped sector of the economy -...
From Dan Ariety's book on Irrationality, I read that Duke basketball ticketholders value their tickets against the Tar Heels at US$3,000. Those who don't get the tickets value the tickets at US$100.
This is why ownership looks alluring. Governments do encourage home ownership, car ownership...
Consider this:
Some Harvard-trained physicians, as Dan Ariety wrote, quit medical cancer research (their original passionate interest) to get into Wall Street as investment bankers. They gained influence, they gained money, but lost their dreams.
Kevin Federline, a former backup dancer...
Even as a fervent supporter of the government (or because I am such), I am not happy with these developments in Singapore:
1. Some interest-based groups discriminates against Aspies and other PSEs - through outright banning, and even people who worked in Autism groups also look down on those...
It seems nowadays everywhere you look, "natural" is in. We are told that we Westerners in particular live in an unnatural, unsustainable society. There are even some who eagerly await its collapse so that we can all go back to living the way we ought to be. In their eyes the Original Sin was...
I was accused as being a clone of an unpopular member of Singapore Bronies Society. What's more, someone who sucks others' asses, just to get reinstated and to be credible. Good riddance. Nonsense!
The moderators seem to have a certain level of prejudice or preferences for different people...
I hope to work as an accountant for a few years, before quitting my job after a while - this means, a long while after I get the Australian citizenship - and I hope to go back to school and do a graduate degree - be it in social work, sociology, or even mathematics.
Here are the list of...
Every Friday between 7am and 8am the carer came into my flat to collect the laundry, but discovered that I too needed laundering because I was so dirty, so she told me to climb into the laundry basket. She then took me and the clothes together along to the laundry.
On arrival at the laundry...
I have a personal identity crisis going on, and I want to seek help.
(1) Nation
Recently, in my local Brony society, there are new guidelines issued by a practicing lawyer (himself in charge of the society), and they are, in theory, not enforced:
The thing is, some of us can't conform...
I support the PAP (the Singapore ruling party). I love the PAP. I even think, and still think, PAP are the only party that will uphold the interests of all Singaporeans, even though news and Internet sources suggest otherwise. It's not because of my MP or Ms Phua, or even Sir Harry Lee...
The thought of social workers or psychologists needing to get a master's degree, and this is the norm for Singapore... It's a boiling feeling of resentment.
If we look at Ireland, this academic requirements kind of pisses me off. We invest in so much education to yield so much stress, even...
Ink smears. Pages bleed. She cries, while he sleeps. The rain pours. Puddles splash down in the street. The shouting stopped, fists stayed at their sides. But peace has failed; her heart still breaks. The phone rings, a neighbor concerned, paces. The phone stares and she ignores. The flowers...
The seamless, murky skies and frozen streets
Bring hope to children
As they eat fruit loops in front of the TV
School closings scroll across the screen.
Delayed. Closed. Closed. Delayed. Closed.
Grand Rapids Public Schools closed.
Children across the city throw up their hands and cheer...
Tell me where I shall not go
And I will go
Because I want to know
What the world will show
The sacrifices we make for our curiosities
A somber light invites me into the pulsing rain
But a warning is given
On the day the sun shines through the rain
Foxes wed in their private...
Falling into foreign light
She staggers gasping for air
Her chest tight
Do they see? Do they care?
She does
Watching them move through the world
Where she once was
How?
She wonders
How can they live
While she withers there
Will they step over her decay?
Will they notice when she...
As she dies
she is reborn
her decaying flesh falls away
A new skin, her blood and tears
begin a new story
but the pages stick together
and no one reads
so they know only the dying girl
and wonder why she is so sad
the rotting flesh, blood and tears sicken
so they look away
and will...

fingers prepped to type
screen stares empty, word hungry
Googles for ideas
?
my pen in hand, poised
waiting for inspiration
I scowl at the page
?
Then Death laughed at me
told a very funny joke
smiles, he likes humor
A state within my mind
Biases set aside
to understand the other side
peaceful revolution everyday
with new perspectives showing us the way
republican, democrat, liberal, conservative,
political parties shown the door,
we don?t need them anymore.
We party with 300 million plus,
we...
She finds herself hollow
her skin a shell
Locked inside her torso, a bench
he sits there
she feels the color green in the darkness
Perhaps his shirt
or grass stains on his knees
She senses his mourning, his loss
She hears nothing
and is flesh once more
Days later,
he cries out a...
