Trumpffiti

2. UNfit 4 President: #NotMyPresident
3. Trump’s crimes: Pussygate (2016), Zelenskygate (2019), Coronagate (2020), Capitolgate (2021)

🇸🇬 🔢

Singapore Math in two characters. A mélange of the best math curriculums from the East and the West, which is arguably the catalyst for Singapore students to repeatedly rank top in international comparative studies like PISA and TIMSS.

In emoji, 🇸🇬 🔢 = (🇺🇸 + 🇬🇧 + 🇨🇳 + 🇰🇷 + 🇷🇺 + 🇮🇱) × 🔢—why should Singapore reinvent the wheel when it can steal the best mathematical ideas from others?

The Weak-end Effect

When you are mentally stressed and physically exhausted, because you can’t think and move, preferring to lie down to rest your out-of-shape body, while constantly worrying how you are going to meet those ridiculous deadlines come Monday.

Jessie sought counselling because she’s suffering from the weak-end effect—she wants to take back her 48 hours for herself and for her family, instead of letting her job take a toll on what used to be her free time—the weekend.

Covid-91

The spiritual antidote to being protected from Covid-19—with reference to Psalm 91 in the Bible, which believers faithfully use as an effective prayer of protection against any plague or pestilence that confronts them.

Christians know that Covid-91 is no match to any man-made antibodies or vaccines in protecting them against Covid-19, because whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty, and that He is their refuge and their fortress and will save them from any deadly pestilence.

Father’s Day in a Pandemic

When the most important day of the year for millions of earthly fathers in pre-pandemic days is already low key or an almost a non-event, unlike Mother’s Day that looks more like a year long affair— Father’s Day has taken a back seat in human or family relationship during this coronavirus crisis, when eating or dining out is forbidden in many parts of the world that are experiencing their second, third, or fourth wave.

This year, ironically or sadly speaking, in a number of liberal countries, Father’s Day in a pandemic is being celebrated in homes where the child is looked after by two dads rather than one—it’s Fathers’ Day, or Father’s Day 2.0, that would test the moral or social fabric of Generation Y or Z in coming decades.
