Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

Morning meeting cancelled today 🙌

Someone just passive-aggressively reminded me I could block people on Mastodon, and if I can't adhere to CW requests perhaps I should get off Mastodon. Wow, I've only beeon on the Internet since 1999, Twitter since 2008 and Mastodon last November. I don't know how to block ah? Wah.

these Mastodon HOA people are one kind.

PS: A few days ago, I blew my top when someone told me to CW my food photos. Since food is the way us Malaysians talk to each other on Mastodon, I feel it's really too much they ask me to CW. Since then a few people explained that food can be triggering to people with eating disorders. But then other people say CW can also worsen eating disorders. Apalah you cannot win. Why don't they leave us alone lol. I think i'll just limit my posts to #MakanApaToday and #FediTiam and exclude #Food cos I dah fed up with the HOA* people. This is sad cos I use #Food so we can reach non-Malaysians, but it attracts the hornets. Maybe I use #expatasia instead (someone asked me to include the hashtag so the expats can find these posts)

All of this nonsense makes me glad that we have a "safe" space here on monyet.cc, where we can be completely Malaysian without some reply dude/dudette come and lecture you for melanggar some cultural rule you are not even aware of. I feel more relaxed here. A bit sad. I now understand why Black Twitter never felt comfortable enough in the Fediverse.

*Home Owners Association - people on Mastodon who patrol it to make sure everyone behave and follow rules. Like prefects, but worse.

That's so stupid.... It's a truly exemplary First World problem. Maybe those people with eating disorder cam consider blocking posts with that hashtag instead.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Too much work. We are supposed to read their minds mah 😂

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is there any major difference between the offerings at Aeon and Aeon Big? Wanna use my gift cards but only accepted at Big

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Generally speaking, Aeon Big's offering is on the lower end in terms of price. They're more comparable to Econsave and NSK in terms of their goods. Aeon is more atas.

Youtube (& Youtubers) really want us to watch Oppenheimer. Every other video on my feed is about either the atom bomb or th WWII, Japan's conflict specifically.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Have to catch dem hype train for view

just bought a brand new camera, Ricoh GR3x!

My neglected X-Pro 2 and Nikon Z6 are both giving me bombastic side eye now....

idk man i kinda need a lot of cameras. Z6 for me is like an SUV, big, heavy, capable. X-Pro 2 is like an analog sports car neo-retro style. Ricoh GR3x is like a Mazda Miata - small, nimble and is probably all you need.

I pray that Fuji does not release X70 mark 2, later i commit wallet crimes again.

Man people do be asking if the pakcik selling cheap nasi campur from his car is paying taxes.

Do you want to get beat up or what?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Even if they want to, they likely doesn't make enough to get taxed. These people got nothing to do ke wtf

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

@.@ you underestimate a lot of F&B sellers, their profit margin is insane... many have very low operating cost cause they occupy public space and what not.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Not all lah, else they already rich lor

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Most are rich if they could survive the first couple of years. They just live a very modest life.

Most don’t even pay tax, do cash business. Operating illegally without license.

I had no idea who 1975 was, this has been great publicity for them. Still haven't listened to their music though
