Gue pernah ngomong ini ke temen. Dan dia bilang mending ngomongnya frontal tapi kerjanya bener. Gue setuju, tapi jujur sebenernya bisa dibedain yang tegas sama yang agak aneh (?). Dua"nya sama percaya diri tapi tetep ada perbedaan.

Public speaking yang gue maksud adalah kalo mereka diwawancara itu ngasi jawaban efektif tapi tetep diplomatis. Walau diplomatis itu beda tipis sama jawaban muter", tapi gue liet banyak gov officials yang akhir" ini suka memantik api aja di keadaan politik indonesia yang engga bagus" amat lewat perkataan mereka.

Lately i've heard some officials' speech/interviews, and dare i say, i feel like they like to degrade their own people verbally. Even menurut gue kalo oposisinya bukan sesama pejabat (kayak rakyat lu sendiri), ga seharusnya ngomong itu ke orang yg semata" cuma kritik lu dan kebijakan lu.

Im gonna bring some examples here. Purbaya and Ahok. Both have somewhat the same personality in public speaking but theyre still very much different. You can judge yourself. I can name other politicians and officials but i wont.

Wdyt?

This is just a mere observation as someone who's chronically online. I see way more american and filipino girls wear longer hair but it seems like it's the opposite with indonesian girls. So when white people call a shoulder-length hair as "short" im always a bit confused because it sure as hell doesnt look short to me...

Maybe weather plays a big part here but what about the philippines, vietnam, and latin countries.. They pretty much have the same climate like us yet their girls seem to have much longer hair.

Edit: i think some of yall mentioned things that are already obvious like yes its practical but im seeking for the big scale reason. Lets compare it with other countries. Is there any modern cultural difference or maybe other reasons?

i feel like when im stressed my only gateaway is eating. but im trying to find other alternatives recently. do any of you have any coping mechanisms other than eating?

both r/indonesia and r/wkwkwkland disappoint me. sometimes when i look at their comments i just think "how could someone, with full consent, post such comment". honestly it's not a new thing anymore, they've been posting weird ironic talks, jokes, and satire regarding this topic since forever.

one thing that saddens me even more is their takes on fh ui issue. theres also other casual talks and its literally just about sexism--lemme tell you they LOVE talking about weddings. theyre allergic with the so called "independent women". these people always think as if women have more choices, more opportunities, more solutions to our problems. they really think the treatment towards women with whats supposed to be called "softer demeanor" from society and the existence of women only busses make us have easier stuffs going on.

we literally live in the same capitalistic world. i dont know how they can casually say it. it breaks my heart and im saying this because my parents arent like what the usual households are. my mom is the one that works so i never relate to any of these weirdos' comments. but somehow it still pisses me off. they really know nothing and they dont care enough to even find out themselves.
