  • It honestly scares me how Thailand is slowly becoming an authoritarian government over the years and as some one who has relatives over there, and knowing how much they hate the current king, since he’s hardly in the country cuz he’s too busy paying thousands in five star hotels to have endless orgies with his many gfs to even give a fuck about the consequences and how shit life is there atm (unless your white)

    It’s honestly just upsetting, esp as freedom of speech has been so severely restricted with the changes the previous gov (military junta) has made over the years, and killing opponents of the king/government. Just absolutely scary tbh.





  • With all the changes that Reddit has made recently esp with the API changes, it definitely did leave salt in my mouth alongside how increasing toxic the Reddit community had become in comparison to when I joined the community but the small niche communities that existed on Reddit did honestly made it harder to quit due to the lack of communities outside, which is another big problem with centralisation, esp in the modern internet as it makes you rely on platforms you may not necessarily like due to big issues like social isolation etc.

    When I found out about this, this isn’t simply excusable anymore and I would rather delete my account over having my personal data being sold for profit (which goes completely against the early ethos of Reddit as a whole but being semi owned by Conde Nast, this would have been inevitable) despite the fact that I have been thinking about deleting my Reddit profile way before this issue.

    Surprisingly, I honestly have had no regrets deleting Reddit out of my life and honestly I do wish I would have done it sooner, I’m far less frustrated, I’m starting to think more constructively again and I feel way way less dependent on it.

    Can say, I made a good choice there tbh.

    Signal was very slow to putting this out icl but at least it’s an option now, which is better than none at all, though sucks you still got to put your number in it though to use it.

    Anything better than Telegram (which is has no E2EE via DMs by default) and WhatsApp (which is owned by Facebook) is good step in my eyes despite Signals flaws, cuz we honestly need less big tech controlling our media consumption in our world today.



  • So sad how they almost put an end to this bloodbath back in the 90s but nationalism and propaganda had to ruin it all and now it’s even worse than it ever was before (not that before was any better)

    It’s so horrific when ppl are demanding a ceasefire cuz this monstrosity, yet the UN and our govs couldn’t really care less cuz it’s not a first world country, being allies with Israel and capitalism as a whole. Makes a lot of ppl feel so powerless over this esp when countries like Ukraine are going through similar yet, are not willing to support the Palestinians over their struggles.

    Just an awful and tragic situation tbh.
