Food in Singapore is really good. Even bland Singapore food is amazing and religiously godly good. I am talking about the fishball Kuey Tiaw soup. The local fish soup. Even Yong Tau Hu with Soup. Even bland foods are amazing in SG, I am so happy, I just cannot even.

I do not think Singaporeans even appreciate what they got. They got it GOOD. USD$4 gets them a god-tier meal that is made from scratch and truly amazing? Holy shit.

I have been taking these epic craps ever since I returned to my island home of Singapore. I think it's because of the quality of the produce - the vegetables and fruits are really tasty and fresh.

We went to buy eggs today. Mom got these Omega 6 eggs - you know the nice ones with the orange yolk. It's about USD$3 for a dozen and get this - the cashier said it is Buy 1 Get 1 Free, and personally grabbed another dozen for my mom.

Singaporeans are so super nice. I am so happy I came home and I am so proud to be a super nice Singaporean. I was super nice when I was in the US and the UK, except when peope fuck with me, obviously. Then I go into "Don't fuck with me I'm an Evil Asian" mode. That's normal.

Duck rice and duck porridge. This is s-tier good. Our Singaporean hawkers are super heroes. They should probably wear capes, but it is too humid for that over here.

After living in LA for 30 years, I feel like such a country yokel when I return to a Singapore 😂. It's such an overwhelming city - everything is so slick, cosmopolitan, high tech and efficient. LA feels like a suburban bedroom community compared to (waves hand)...this.

Lighting up Orchard Road is a Singaporean tradition - I loved it as a kid, and I feel like a big kid when mom took me for a walk down Orchard Road last night.

While RFK Jr is undermining health policies in the US, Singapore commits record $37 billion to drive research, innovation and enterprise over next five years, with focus on keeping the population healthy and sharp as the nation steadily greys. straitstimes.com/singapore/sing…

I think my best memories of America lies in it's natural and majestic beauty. This is Mt Whitney in the winter. So lovely!

Singapore living is so plush, so efficient, so harmonious, so green and so futuristic - I cannot imagine moving back to the US anymore. This is a young immigrant nation bursting with optimism and the desire to innovate. The US and the UK feels so…frumpy and mid.

My body has acclimated to the humid tropics. 84° day = nice weather, not too hot. 75° morning = pleasantly chilly. I spend the day without AC. I run the AC at 79° at night or Dry Mode. I am a local now.

Since returning home, I have lost weight in the most boring imaginable way - just eating normally and going about my new life. It is slow and steady. I was happy with my heavier self and I am happy with my lighter self. Everything is chill and chill is good.
