Rye Off The Bat

In this episode, we tackle something alittle more sensitive and controversial. Do we take care of our parents/love ones?

What happens if our partner didn't want our parents to move in with us, even though they are homeless? Too extreme? How much of support and compromise should we give? This episode can get alittle heavy and Chilli and I also do feel the "pinch" as we also dissected the different cultures regarding parent care.

I think it is also more of an Asian thing when we live, takecare and even give our parents allowance. What if our parents is toxic or abusive?

Unexpected heavy topics but nothing's too heavy for Rye off React!

In this episode of Rye off the bat, I have that thought of how we always thought we can put a pin on it, to stop to pause; thinking that we can hop right on anytime. But in reality we are actually moving backwards; relative to the world as the world move on, relative to our body as or organs are aging.

In this episode of Rye of React, Chilli and I explored this episode of situationship of a story where the OP is dating this guy who fell head over heels thinking that OP is a female; however "she" hasn't share about "her" true sexuality about being a trans. It is not uncommon for things to take off really quickly when everthing seem to fall in place, however it is hard to have more heavy conversations sometimes like sharing our sexuality to our sexual past for better or worse; so come join us and dive in and lets see how it goes from here!

Own your life. This concept gets thrown around alot as we are "told" to be more responsible for our own life. This concept however isn't wrong; in this episode, I share abit more of my thoughts on that and how we tend to sway from this concept, as we could blame things on the "neo-natural" disaster. From overcrowded gym due to the June holidays or even taffic jams; so how far back should we own our lives?

And somethings knowing how to own our lives also knowing where to "hit back"

We all know beggars can't be choosers, but what happens when you decided to give someone and non-obligatory gift but it all turns for the worse when your gesture of goodwill and bought down a rabbit hole of chaos; as the receiver of the gift wants more?

It's a strange world.

In this episode, I shared about my mental wellbeing and experiencing after going for a week on Prozac (Fluoxetine). I decided to try out Prozac after being on Setraline (hovid/zoloft) for around 1 year and find myself unable to adapt to the fatigue after the 2nd dosage. After hitting a low in motivation, my doctor encourages me to try something else again and this time I decided to say yes. I always thought Setraline is a "saftey net", but find myself lingering but haven't seen much improvement after. So far Prozac seems great, and I'm trying to stay more positive to be better.

In this episode of Rye off React; Chilli and I looked at this situationship of someone who got alittle too involved with her neighbour. It seems like what transpired made her neighbour to go for her time and again, not taking no for an answer and being very sure it was not just a one-time thing. Fun, Alcohol but sometimes things can get tricky if someone sees something else and feelings are involved. This person however took it to a whole level of harassment, and "attacked" her when she did not give in.

How should one do when faced with something like this? Lets dive in and find out!

In this episode of Rye off the Bat, I explore the difference between Naysayers and "Shouldsayers" and how the latter is harder to deter. It is easy to go against Naysayers; when their views contrast really easily with yours. But what about Shouldsayers? when their values and thoughts could blur so well with yours and even made you doubt yourself?

In this episode, Chilli and I stumbled upon this heavy story that unravelled alot more than we thought. How does one deals with LGBTQ friendship when the partner has little to non-awareness or is prone to say insensitive things? How can decades of friendship navigate through this; despite weddings being supposed to be events of bliss? It was a difficult one, but sometimes the world just needs to be alittle kinder.

Do we let the red flag stay? or go?

A little rye of the bat; a poetry performance, a recap of my love, my birthdays and hello to my birthday present. Prozac.
