Southeast Asia is best thought of less as 11 different countries, And more so eight largely interchangeable megacities dominated by a largely pan regional elite and compliant middle + working class, and outside of that just an endless mass of rice farms and rural residents

No one's coming to save you, but that's also kind of freeing. When you stop crying out for a cosmic referee to make things fair, the noise of the world—the posts, the doubt, the takes, the contempt—goes quiet. You stop fighting phantoms and start doing what's outside of the head.

The fix to that is just doing the next hard thing without looking around, without even self-approval. If there's a knock at the door, you get up. If there's a choice, you decide. Screw up, clean it up. Commit. Play the game. That's all "being a man" ever was. Ignore the rest.

Every man has a part of himself that wants someone else to decide which ALWAYS waits for a permission, for an extra push. For a woman to notice him, for a boss to praise him, for luck to show up, or for friends to help. That part never fucking grows. That part is delusional.

People from kartini, to PKI, to muhammadiyah thought that this practice was barbaric & old-fashioned. The reason why nationalists chose melayu pasar as the national language because it was seen as more egalitarian than the feudal & hierarchical javanese language/culture.
kalau ini budaya Nusantara boleh kalau budaya Islam NUsantara ga boleh

Periode Penuh Konspirasi paling gila di Indonesia sepertinya bukan pada akhir zaman Suharto, tapi pada zaman Habibie. Selama 1998-1999, terjadi berbagai Event yang lebih aneh, misterius, atau ditutup-tutupi jauh melampaui Mei 98. Sejahat-jahatnya Mei 98, kita masih
Pembantaian Banyuwangi 1998. Ini adalah konspirasi paling misterius di Indonesia. - Korbannya tidak jelas. - Pelakunya tidak jelas. - Latarnya tidak jelas. - Tujuannya tidak jelas. - Dampaknya tidak jelas. Saking tidak jelasnya, gw bahkan tidak punya teori konspirasi. 307

Saying this when the average height of buildings in Jakarta is a whopping 3 floors and tons of housing still have the audacity of having lawns is crazy. Jakarta is severely underdeveloped and low density.
"Vertical housing will solve this" "Zoning laws and regulations will solve this!" "It's a government skill issue, Tokyo is technically more dense!" The same kind of magical thinking; Jakarta sinks deeper and the urban sprawl keeps getting larger each year.
