The Bugle

Highly recom­men­ded pod­cast full of enter­tain­ing bull­shit hos­ted by John Oliver of The Daily Show fame, and Andy Zalts­man of being co-host of The Bugle, and cre­ator of the audio cryptic cross­word fame. A true test­a­ment to the spirit of using lies to tell the truth (to para­phrase Neil Gai­man), this is one pod­cast you will …

I’ll Shave for Money

Hello Inter­net, cer­tain people I know from the Inter­net, and friends. I will cut a deal with you.

A Related Chinese New Year Message

It’s nice to be back in a life where I can once again enjoy the arts and cul­ture, plot world lib­er­a­tion, and enjoy the com­pany of tea while pon­ti­fic­at­ing the reas­ons why I still choose to reject all forms of romantic rela­tion­ships des­pite that nag­ging feel­ing brought about by bio­lo­gical com­pul­sions. I have much to …

First Successful Meetup

After what seemed like a life­time of dis­ap­point­ments, I finally atten­ded a suc­cess­ful meet-up with a fel­low athe­ist I met on the Inter­net yes­ter­day. Obvi­ously, it could have been bet­ter than the two of us, but it was nev­er­the­less enjoy­able to freely chat about things that had pre­vi­ously been writ­ten online. Next meet-up to be …

Make the Compassionate Choice

This year starts where I left off last year — at the newly built SPCA-KK shel­ter in Sabah. Work­ing with anim­als has been frus­trat­ing and reward­ing, but mostly frus­trat­ing. It is now clear to me, more than pre­vi­ous arm­chair reas­on­ing can provide, that people just don’t give a shit about animal cruelty until they are …
