Forum: #GE2025 is more than abt winning seats
"As #Singapore marks 60th year of independence.. not merely a routine democratic exercise but a contest of ideas, credibility & renewal.. A maturing #democracy needs a #diversity of voices, credible opposition, & leaders with both head & heart. Voters, esp'ly e younger gen, r watching closely not just what candidates say, but how they say it, & whether they #walkthetalk.. #vote w clarity, courage & conviction"

A Bee Fly, Brachyanax satellitius, spotted at Thomson Nature Park on 22 Dec 2024. The second shot shows it in mid-flight.

Within a day of posting it on iNaturalist, it was identified, showing the power of a world-wide social network for nature observations.

So far, this is the first and only observation of Brachyanax satellitius on iNaturalist [ inaturalist.org/observations/2 ].

A small fly with swept back wings resting vertically on a wooden post. It has a black body with large brown eyes. Its wings are black nearer the body and transparent nearer the wing tips.
The same fly, captured in mid-flight, showing more of its body. The body is completely black, except for two small white spots on the sides and a circle of white at the tip of the abdomen.

The funniest population to react to East Asian dislike of of fans and wind drafts (to the point that there's such a belief of fan death, and you can find auto switches for JP/KR-sold fans that'll switch off standing fans at night because it's considered unhealthy to sleep with the fan on*) has to be Malaysians and Singaporeans because:

1. Standing fans ONLY? we have *ceiling fans*
2. Fans only? We turn on the a/c AND the fan at the same time 🤣
3. There's even 2-in-1 units like in the pic lmao

Anyway this is weird behaviour outside our respective countries but natch, it makes sense to meeee.

*I'm understating it. They believe you'll die.

A shopee page showing a ceiling air-conditioning unit that has a fan attachment at the vent. The idea is that it will help to move the cold air around better and with a visible windy feel.
