[Movie feelings on Forbidden City Cop, a 1996 Hong Kong wuxia comedy film directed by Vincent Kok and Stephen Chow and starring Chow, Carina Lau, and Carman Lee, quoting Wikipedia.] Desire is now replaced by a predictable bowl of noodles, Fat observed. There is a maddening push and pull to preserve a heart that yearns…

Returned from Death
God shitted on me last night in the form of a little tab on my tongue. I saw thickened wrinkles in between my eyes like I have died 75 times on a toilet bowl, trying after three days of constipation while staring into colorful, moving walls in uncontrollable laughter and twitches from the thunder thighs.…
Basketball thoughts: Jordan’s last three mins and Kobe’s last three mins and Lebron and Kobe’s last three minutes
Jordan was calm having made so many clutch shots. That little push from his opponent, a step back, and a swift finish to lead his team to a 3-peat, his sixth championship. It was too late for the Utah Jazz; Stockton seemed nervous at the last offensive opportunity and perhaps also made the mistake of…
aesthetics and objectification
sometimes humans become emotional after hooking up with other beautiful humans because they feel the post-aesthetics emptiness so deeply. when we call one beautiful, we are projecting our idea or perception of beauty onto the other. beauty connects and evokes one’s emotions and thoughts. beauty invites empty attachments; without knowing one deeply, yet wanting to…
To Son from Another Mother
Listening to Jordan Peterson reminds me of you. I think he speaks to you and I, an over-consumed generation with lost responsibilities, commitment and ethics. Young people without a strong role model or family support can easily feel dehumanized in a capitalist-dominant society such as Hong Kong, where prices will always almost precede morals. Then,…
To Mother from Another Mother
“I want to keep things casual with you,” she said. I was heartbroken, yet I respect her decision to respect herself. I think my hatred against those who misuse power and status is a reflection of my own secret desire for power and status. I don’t think it’s morally unjustified to kill someone if you…
On Constitution of Sex
Separation of sex from love is the same as separation of church from state. The first amendment not only allows humans the freedom to have sex of their choice, but also prevents any social conventions or values from creating bias and shame. Consent is of top consideration in any sexual matters, followed by safety measures.…
On Playful Violence
Some of us like to get tied up by ropes, surrounded by strangers, privately. Some of us like to play with knives, submerged in innocence, childishly. There is a dark desire in the heavy air, yearning to be destructed by a power so almighty. It is only powerful because it is consensual. Some of us…
On Self-Judgment
Some of us are willing to pass judgment on just about anything, especially in domains in which they have zero knowledge. Some of us wake up from a momentary lack of awareness, and choose to acknowledge their zero knowledge, and become daring to know and to question, in the face of rejection and confusion. Some…
On Polyamory
Some of us are hardwired to be attuned to the frequency offered by multiple channels. Some of us are switched on only by exclusivity and its subsequent most royal treatment. Some of us are damaged because they are not chosen as the only one. How many days are being wasted on lamenting over not being…
