On Saturday, we spent the morning and afternoon roaming #Glodok via #Transjakarta, then spent the evening until just before midnight at #TheCocktailClub.

#HotTake: Forcing résumés back into text-block monoliths in order to humour tracking systems and other AI readers was a sign that fascism is making a return.
These tools are regression wearing the skin of progress, and wielded by those comically past their prime, yet still can't let go of power.

No words can describe the shock I felt seeing the recent developments of the ongoing genocide in Sudan by the RSF.
The more I learned of the United Arab Emirates' involvement in the genocide, the more sickened I got.
