My goal is to get myself enough leverage so that I won’t leave myself vulnerable.
March 18, 2021 #

So visceral but so unsurprising at the same time. I don’t know how folks in the US live with it all. I just can’t. I feel gaslit seeing people appearing unfazed, and wonder if I was just too weak and feeling too much. Be that the case, luckily I have options. And I opted out.

I saw people get mad at others calling out that web browsers are meant for document viewing and not applications and want to debate it… The thing is, this really isn’t an opinion though. @kocienda was stating a fact. Document viewing was what the web was designed for. Pulling up examples of what people has used the web for isn’t going to change how the web was designed and why manipulating it into something it’s not is extremely messy and awkward. To those who think it’s not messy and awkward, I’d have to guess you haven’t done much accessibility work? Just learn to write native code if you want to make apps people (hence why I tried to learn Swift.) How about discussing how to lower the much higher barrier of entry for native app development instead of forcing the web to become an app platform?

I’ve muted so many people on Facebook that whenever I add a new friend, Facebook will show every single one of their post to me because there’s often nothing else new. And I then have to mute the new friend because wow friend how did you get the time to post stuff daily?

Perhaps I just need a weekly digest of how my friends are doing.

Life update: I moved back to Taiwan, finished the 2-week quarantine, mastered the spelling of Q-U-A-R-A-N-T-I-N-E, found an apartment, bought a sofa and 2 plants, took a day trip to Kaohsiung, got back to Taipei, and am currently waiting for the internet company person to come give me life so I can play video games again.

Excuse me. My whole life I watch people who have nothing at stake argue how much freedom Taiwanese people should have and what government we deserve. Just no. You don’t get to decide what’s not that bad (aka you could suffer more) and what’s bearable (aka you could power through) when the things did not happen and are not happening to you. Believe the people with the experience when they say “THINGS ARE FUCKED. IT IS THAT BAD.”

Life is strange 2 gameplay drags a lot and has a lot of fillers, so isn’t a fun game to play by any means IMO, but the characters are so likeable, and the background stories/context are so rich and well structured. Quite impressive.

I really wish internationalization settings are more flexible. On PlayStation if I want Chinese subtitles I often need to change my system UI to from English to Chinese, which means voice prompts won’t work, and then the game UI also can’t be set to English because games usually only have one or two language settings– subtitles and audio, and not UI. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Game content internationalization should prioritize authenticity around the story, while user interface internationalization should prioritize accessibility for the user and social interactions. The data is all there!

CCP’s National Security Law applies to everyone, not just people inside of HK, and not just Chinese citizens. It is explicitly stated in Article 38 that “Non-HKer outside HK can violate this law, and the penalty applies” This means it has the potential to affect YOU AS WELL through extradition. “Other countries wouldn’t just do what China says, right?” Wouldn’t they? Wilder things have happened.

I was practically raised by Hong Kong’s rebellious entertainment industry; For decades, they used art and entertainment as social commentary on colonization and imperial powers. Today HKers lost their freedom of speech to CCP, and this marks an end to the HK we know. It’s heartbreaking.

This is and has always been the oppressed’s normal. Everything is political. This manifest for me through the never-ending campaign against CPC’s invasion threats, propaganda, and election interferences, and for Taiwan independence plus decolonization. Perhaps you do need a new normal if it doesn’t already contain activism, because many don’t have a choice.

Across from the library stands the grandiose memorial of Chiang Kai Shek, whose KMT regime oversaw the secret execution of over 30,000 Taiwanese activists. Taiwanese and Taiwanese Americans: we, too, watch the government pardon and honor glorified murderers. We, too, walk over the graveyards of our own people. We, too, have known rain and destruction all our lives.

We, then, should know better.

We, then, should do better.

I was shocked to see more and more Taiwanese people, who know little about US politics, liking the GOP and people like Ted Cruz. Then I recently found out it is because they are the ones in the US Congress lifting Taiwan’s status up for the democratic nation it is, inviting President Tsai to visit and speak against PRC’s wishes, pushing for bills to establish official relationships between the US and Taiwan. Intentions matter, but what can Taiwanese people take from the silence of the Dems?

JS disabled by default life update: It’s going terribly. Friend sent me a link to a restaurant site and nothing rendered. There’s no way to enable JS just once in Chrome.

Every once in a while I’d feel this overwhelming shame for not being able to speak Taiwanese properly. And each time I’d calculate the cost–benefit, and decide to keep living with the shame. Then I feel even worse the next time :(. (ref)
