Could influencers be the new priests of our age? Spreading gospel in the form of skincare, hustle culture, and conspiracy? Aight, let’s start with a confession — I once bought a RM200 face serum because an influencer said it made her “glow like peace and purpose.” Spoiler alert: I glowed like a “pisang goreng” instead. XAXAXA. But that moment —… Read more →
Aight, I don’t usually talk about politics on my blog—except for that one rogue entry “Politic Explained,” which, let’s be honest, was a cheeky copy-paste job from somewhere XAXAXA. But this one feels too important to ignore. So buckle up, we’re diving into the messy, noisy, dangerously fascinating world of misinformation and democracy. Fake News, Real Consequences 📰💥 We used… Read more →
Aight, let’s talk about something that’s silently watching you. No, not ghosts. 👻 I’m talking about surveillance—CCTV, phone tracking, face recognition, and even your “smart” fridge giving away your ice cream habits. XAXAXA. In the name of national security and public safety, governments and corporations are collecting a lot of data. But here’s the million-dollar question: how far is too… Read more →
Aight, 🖤📺 let’s just say it—Black Mirror is back, and this time, it hits differently. Season 7 didn’t just deliver; it gave us that sweet, sweet closure we’ve been craving since we first spiralled into techno-paranoia all those seasons ago. For longtime fans like myself (a Gen X’er who remembers a time before smartphones ruined our lives, XAXAXA), this latest… Read more →
Aight, remember the good old days when waiting in line meant, well… just standing there? No doomscrolling, no notifications, no sudden urge to check if someone liked your three-day-old Instagram post. Fast forward to now, and we can’t even sit still for five seconds without reaching for our phones. Boredom used to be a normal part of life, but now?… Read more →
Alright, let’s be real—we’ve never had it this good. A world of endless possibilities is at our fingertips. Hundreds of streaming services, thousands of career paths, and dating apps filled with potential soulmates (or red flags, depending on your luck 💀). Yet, instead of feeling free, we’re more stressed, anxious, and indecisive than ever. 🤯🔀 Why? Because too much choice… Read more →
Aight, let’s cut straight to it—money can buy happiness. There, I said it. XAXAXA. Sure, people love throwing around phrases like “money can’t buy happiness” or “happiness comes from within.” But let’s be real—have you ever seen someone miserable on a beach in the Maldives, sipping a coconut, knowing they don’t have to worry about bills? Exactly. Now, I’m not… Read more →
So, I just found out about nightshade vegetables, and no, they’re not some mystical plants that only bloom under a full moon. 🤔 They’re actually a whole category of everyday veggies that people either love, fear, or have absolutely no idea about. Turns out, these plants come with a bit of drama—some folks claim they’re superfoods, while others believe they’re… Read more →
Aight, March 2025 is here! 🍀 A fresh new month, a chance to reset, and—if you’re an introvert like me—a perfect excuse to politely decline unnecessary social events. XAXAXA. ✨ Being an introvert isn’t about being shy or antisocial; it’s about finding energy in solitude, choosing depth over small talk, and knowing that sometimes, the best company is just you… Read more →
Alright, let’s get real. We’ve got more brainpower in our pockets than NASA had when they put humans on the Moon. 🚀 But here’s the twist—are we actually getting smarter, or are we just really good at Googling stuff?
