The~2nd-^rule: #28

Editorial
You know there's nothing quite like the stranglehold of the unilinear narrative when it takes thirty-odd years before anyone publishes a photo of our country's founding father looking furtive. Skyscrapers are usually stronger than history and horizons. The last time I saw a proper horizon here was at Lim Chu Kang cemetery during Qing Ming. When anything is designated as an Enhancement Project start worrying. Or in other words, whenever people see photos of places here that haven't been touched yet, they say it looks like another country.

I don't like the second-wrule-dot-com. The advertisements, I mean. The last time i was back in singapore, i saw a poster outside the National library (desecration~!) advertising the website; it had a Ernie and Bert on it- subverting sesame street! (And i don't like "Bert is evil" websites either.)
