Oh yes, we’re gonna need it for the battle ahead, the battle for freedom

No, I’m speaking past tense because I think through memories and I get confused about verbs. My original language doesn’t really distinguish is/was, so I kinda use present and past tense interchangeably. School is over, I’m college-age now, thank fucking god.

And for that one specific encouter, dude was Chinese American, parents are strict, this dude be studying all the time, didn’t have much friends (just like me), he didn’t have much hobbies. Like he said he watch Youtube videos but then we don’t share much common channels.

So… yea…

whatever, that’s history.

when you can just send ASCII Memes?

Its worse when healthcare providers are using them. Very easy for politicians to abuse.

Yea stuff like… Tik Tok… Instagram… fighting in hallways, bragging about skipping class…

Low-key “gangs” (not a real gang, but like, tribalism and if you “join” them, you’re expected to bully people not part of the group)

Then you got the other side of it, kids of tiger parents, the loners, etc…

I mean, the closest group I could “relate” to, that doesn’t act like “gangsters” would be I think this groups of kids that are sort of gamers I think, but they play these triple A games that I don’t even have the hardware for nor money for games, and they play card games that I tried, but never could get into. There’s these Mandarin speakers that were kinds into pop music of Korean and Mandarin songs, but I don’t even feel “Chinese” enough to feel like I’d ever belong, can’t even speak Mandarin good enough since I got here during earlu childhood, also I kinda am not into the stuff they’re into.

Also, friend circles form since middle school, so I kinda missed the “deadline” of forming friendships. I kinda didn’t venture and talk to people during freshman year, so that just exacerbated the problem. Once these groups form, you are always an outsider.

So… yea… highschool… ugh… kinda hate it tbh…

I am not “Okarin”. My name is Hououin Kyouma, dictator of Nippon, and Member of the Committee of 300.

Meshtastic. I don’t use it yet, but it is something interesting that I’ve kinda been low-key obsessed about.

Eventually, telecoms are gonna require IDs, internet service will require IDs. Computers will have DRMs and “AI” scanning your device to censor stuff.

Meshtashtic could be the backbone of a new “internet”. One that’s free from corporate control. We could build a forum on top of it.

“Protection” that require you to create an account and have the key auto-uploaded to their servers before the encryption is active. Not even a secret, they literall tell you they will upload your key. Lol

hol’up wtf? 💀

This “GFW” is so lame. FYI, I could literally just call my aunts in China right now and tell them about everything happening in the west. I mean my parents and my aunts talk all the time on phone calls.

Edit: Don’t know what’s with the downvotes, I don’t support the GFW if you’re confused, but I’m just saying their stupid firewall aint gonna actually stop the flow of information from the overseas diaspora population from flowing back into China. GFW is futile.

Edit 2: Okay maybe not “futile”, but my point is: It’s not as effective as it seems. Its quite fragile lol.

I stopped being excited to see him. He wasn’t a terrible human it was just he was disappointing. He did the best he could as a parent but he his dumb. Like room temp iq. Its hard to talk to him and not fun.

Relatable 😆. You know how usually fathers are the head of the household and the breadwinner? In my family, my mother kinda is the matriarch lol. We immigrated to a different country and while my mother obtained citizenship but my dad kinda… 10 years after he’s eligible, still unable to learn the language to become citizen… ugh… actually kinda worried due to current political atmosphere around here (USA). Now its like 15 years, there’s a language waiver, so I hope he finally get it, because it’d be awkward to have the family separated, my previous country doesn’t do dual citizwnship so my mother and I already lost that country’s citizenship upon getting the new citizenship.

Can’t really have much deep discussions, like… even with my lexicon, I tried best to explain my political views, dude was like… “okay” like just have zero views of his own, always parrotting what the last person or social media post said. Lolol.

My mother was actually the one who helped me with learning how the money (since coins don’t have numbers on it lol) worked, helped me with learning basic English (she somehow knew a little English because of the sales job she had back in our previous country) vocabulary, and kinda… sort of… showed me how existing as a human being in society works…

But even then my mother still kinda refuse to talk politics, not surprised, that’s how people have learned to survive under authoritarianism… it becomes instinct… and now authoritarianism is kinda approaching here in the US too, lol. Almost like they predicted this and decided to stay silent.

Much less conversations about philosophy. Philosophy is just “overthinking” to them. They’d never understand free will vs determinism, presentism vs eternalism, lapalce’s demon, that sort of stuff…

Like… they’re both on the philosophy of: “It doesn’t matter of its a white cat or black cat, as long as it can catch mice”, they don’t care about politics as long as we can survive.

I basically had to learn all this politics and philosophy stuff all by myself online.
