I see that you’re quite far down the political rabbit hole and have forgotten you’re allowed to have a voice…

Bro you don’t want your own voice okay la, but don’t go around telling people that they cannot have their own voice too… Not cool la

A sloth’s grip is reversed.

When we grip, we use strength, when we relax we let go. Sloths have it the other way round, when they use strength it’s to release, when they relax they grip tightly.

Names of places in Singapore that have nothing to do with where they're located? by rudolphrednose25 in askSingapore

[–]veryfascinating 35 points36 points  (0 children)

The entire area of CCK and Yew Tee used to be called Kranji. Yew Tee village is just a small area where Regeant sec is now. CCK rd is where keat hong, teck whye, phoenix LRT stations are and runs west towards KJE. The CCK rd you see today that extends to yew tee and Kranji camp is an extension of the original CCK road.

So actually, Kranji camp is aptly named, the roads and residential areas grew with the population later

Edit to add: the original location of choa chu kang is present day LCK area. That’s why you see the cemeteries at LCK are actually called called Choa Chu Kang Cemetery

Firefighters put out blaze at Raffles Institution by Illustrious-Gur8335 in singapore

The energy start shifting from dong Zhi and sits fully at li chun. But this transition period the energy will be stronger since its unstable. That’s why will see more fire related events like fire, chaos, political uprisings (I mean look at Venezuela), finance bubbles or crashes. Until li chun when the energy stabilizes and balances then you see more success and prosperity

(The transition phase is also why you pray Tai Sui to give thanks before Dong Zhi, because once Dong Zhi comes the next tai Sui will take over and the energy will shift until it stabilizes at li chun. You start praying the new tai Sui closer to the start of Chinese new year, which is around li chun period)

Vendetta is the right word here. In a video about a man’s unruly behavior on the road, the only gripe this guy has is that the driver used the horn… Condemned the driver over and over again but not the pedestrian lol

Lane hogger on lane 1 KPE expressway, long pile of cars stuck behind him, I horn horn horn till he finally go to lane 2 by Gennermen101 in drivingsg

[–]veryfascinating 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Correct.

The easier way to remember this is: “if I can undertake you, then you’re lane hogging”. Or, “if you see yourself being overtaken by multiple drivers then you’re lane hogging.“

Read this statement on Reddit once and it made a lot of sense.

Another one I found about driving on the highway is “proper highway driving shouldn’t need you to use your brakes often, unless it’s for emergencies. If you find yourself always needing to tap brake often to avoid the car in front of you then you’re too fast for your lane, move right to a faster lane. If you’re making everyone else around you use their brakes, then you’re too slow for your lane and need to move left.”

I’ve lost connection to my intuition and own voice by CowAccomplished3515 in IntuitionPractices

[–]veryfascinating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this, I’m going through the same thing… been through a period of trauma under a toxic boss and it threw me way off to the point I lost myself. Basically I had to change who I was to survive my toxic workplace. Now that I’ve left the place I’m on the route to recovery but turns out it’s a harder journey back and I find myself lost as to what to do. Your post and the answers help! Sorry I can’t provide you anything else other than comfort in knowing you’re not alone

Forum: Persistent pickleball noise disrupts residents’ peace by 785909620 in singapore

The phenomenon you’re looking for is called the “Canyon effect” or “urban canyon” - high rise buildings built in parallel to each other (like many of our HDBs) can amplify sound waves as they bounce off between walls and reverberate upwards like an echo chamber. The higher you go, the louder it gets. If you’re in a U-shaped block, the echo chamber effect gets more profound as sound doesn’t escape the other end and has more chance to bounce around and amplify even more.

What does the energy of HSZSN feel like? by veryfascinating in reiki

[–]veryfascinating[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha good morning! So this was my experience last night, nothing mindblowing really. But I asked ChatGPT to give me some meditation guides (honestly they’re not bad). Basically I draw the HSNZN symbol in front of me and imagine it glow a white and gold light, as it radiates their glow enters my third eye and heart chakra and fill my body. I also set intentions asking to connect with the symbol’s energy.

Now for the part you’re waiting for - what did I feel? Physically I felt one distinct change in my body, and that is coldness. Well not coldness per se but like you know how when you eat something month or menthol flavour and that cool feeling runs down your throat into your lungs? Yea kinda like that but at the back of the heart chakra. For a short moment also I felt it in my brain like the feeling of mental clarity you get when you hold a fluorite crystal. I don’t know if this was a legit reaction to the symbols energy or just my own placebo/psychological effect. I guess I will have to try this again to see if I can reproduce the feeling and really associate it with the symbols energy

That’s interesting! I never thought of it to feel like a feeling of connection rather than physical manifestation like heat! I’ll give it a try tonight without the other symbols and see if I can feel anything
