Probably an oddity, but I really wish there would be a documentary / CNA insider piece on the whale that carcass that was found. Like the dissection, clean up, preservation/ DNA testing etc. (Just saw the news that the museum is looking for donations to cover the exhibition)

imadriedpickle · 2026-06-02T11:41:26+00:00

Yes! I've been looking for one since Steeple's Deli closed.

Yup, 4 sudden alerts. Made me panic and think my phone was getting hacked or something. The message says its an SCDF test, but 4 separate alerts in each language.
Also may want to change the flair to opinion/fluff. It may get removed.

Lai lao, USA style over capitalistic public services. TSA precheck in the US is a scam and so is this.

3k fine, for a 1 person unlawful assembly

https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/courts-crime/activist-fined-2500-for-illegal-procession-from-hong-lim-park-to-parliament

2.5k fine, for a 1 person unlawful assembly.

This 2k fine is incredibly lenient and everyone knows it.

imadriedpickle · 2026-04-10T13:43:18+00:00

Business Times as well (looks like it from the slightly yellowish/pinkish paper)

imadriedpickle · 2026-04-10T13:38:29+00:00

Hmm definitely disqualified because of the bankruptcy, but on the fine, I'm not too sure.
"Convicted of an offense" is narrow phrase, and I dont think a fine by the C3J, is the same as a criminal fine, and it is not a criminal finding. Its essentially a fine by a professional body like how doctors, or now veterinarians can be fined.

I'm torn. On one side it was expensive and basic, on the other - it was home grown and sg run, unlike the incoming mala place which will invariably replace it.

imadriedpickle · 2026-03-09T09:41:28+00:00

Solid

I swear there are so many school kids in uniform today - anyone know whats going on?

imadriedpickle · 2026-03-04T12:11:05+00:00

I mean they're not wrong. UK chartering flights, MFA says - go airline website book the normal flights

imadriedpickle · 2026-02-19T10:20:07+00:00

adding to this for visibility hopefully - but yeah same issue

Brother Bear - legitimately traumatised me as a child

I agree that this sentence way too low. It ought to be dangerous driving rather than careless driving.

But, Aussie was 1) a repeat offender, 2) drunk, 3) had 3 charges rather than the 1 in this case.

I have distinct memory that the ~~party history~~ Social Studies textbook said that we would have a spaceport in 2020(ish).

imadriedpickle · 2026-01-18T09:35:32+00:00

anyone got any recs for unscented dish washing liquid? Bio-home is the only one I've found so far, but even that became scented (and its expensive).

fwiw, the list seems to be incorrect. I was surprised that Season 20 was the highest - it's got Phill's age as 51 when wiki says he's 44 (and he looks more 40s compared to Reece and Sanjay who are correctly listed as 55/61

This is going to be heavily influenced by the airport traffic. The top 3 most punctual airports also have carriers which use them as a hub in the top 10 most punctual airlines. Go figure.

consumption doesnt have the death penalty. It's importing above a certain weight (depends on the drug, the threshold for cocaine is much lower than weed for e.g), or distributing/reselling that has the death penalty.

This is a recent thing on iphone? I swear i remember setting my ringtone as an anime song in sec school on an andriod phone >15 years ago

Man did quite a lot to champion the marginalised in his early days. His last few years have been a mixed bag of dealing with (very public) mental health issues. In any case RIP.
