April 30, 2020 YLB #50 - Is Ateeqah Mazlan innocent and is the SG Covidiots FB Group a good thing?
Celebrity Ateeqah Mazlan incurred the wrath of the Malay community and soon the Internet after she “caused” home-based businesses to be banned from operating. But did she really do anything wrong? In the spirit of online vigilantism, is the SG Covidiots FB group actually helpful or does it just lead to bullying?

April 27, 2020 YLB #49 - “Racist” Straits Times articles get backlash and does singing “HOME” do anything useful?
The Straits Times published 2 articles that were accused of racial stereotyping - one about home-based learning and another about domestic workers. But were the accusers just “too sensitive”? And was the govt-initiated singing of “HOME” useful or was it just something to make the participants feel shiok?

April 22, 2020 YLB #48 - Circuit Breaker extended by 4 weeks & the Virus Vanguard Superheroes defeated by Netizens
We try to wrap our heads around the Circuit Breaker extension. Elsewhere, a collab between Gov.sg and local comic outfit Band of Doodlers (BoD) to create SG superheroes got worldwide backlash. But was it fair? EDIT: News broke AFTER we recorded this that some of the superhero characters may have been plagiarised by the founder of BoD. So we couldn’t cover it, but for the latest on this developing story check out our subreddit.

April 17, 2020 YLB #47 - Should we boycott GRAB & other food delivery apps and is “strenuous exercise” a reason to NOT wear a mask?
Restaurant owners are lobbying the big food delivery apps to lower commission fees, with some netizens pushing for a boycott. But is that fair? Earlier this week, the govt also made wearing masks mandatory, except during “strenuous exercise” like brisk walking. Good idea or a loophole people will exploit?

April 14, 2020 YLB #46 - Are migrant workers to blame for COVID19 spikes & the doctors who had sex with their patients
More COVID19 cases are popping up in migrant workers dorms. But some Singaporeans think the workers are to blame for not keeping their living quarters clean. Fair? Elsewhere, 2 doctors tarnished the name of frontline workers everywhere by taking "sexual advantage" of their patients.

April 10, 2020 YLB #45 - 10 SHIOK THINGS for the week, as the world gets crazier
We really wanted to talk about the news, but what can we say that hasn’t already been said (by us). So we figured that we’d share some of the things that have kept us sane through the circuit breaker or made us want to punch ourselves in the face. Or both.

April 06, 2020 YLB #44 - Why queue up at IKEA, Sports Stores and Bubble Tea shops days before we “Circuit Break”?
The weekend before our country went into “circuit breaker” mode to contain Covid19, many Singaporeans decided that it was their last chance to SHOP. The queues were insane, and the internet was pissed. But why would people do that? And are they wrong if they did?

April 02, 2020 YLB #43 - What services really are “essential” during Covid19 and M’sian wives are told to “speak like Doraemon”
The French think pastry shops are "essential services", while the USA thinks gun shops are. Is there a right answer? In other news, domestic abuse cases increase worldwide as more people stay at home. Fortunately, a M’sian Ministry advised women (via ridiculous infographics) to “speak like Doraemon” to avoid tension with their husbands. WTF.

March 29, 2020 YLB #42 - SG clubbers get slammed for partying amidst Covid-19, but are they wrong? And the upcoming condom shortage the world needs to prep for
Clubs and clubbers held 'farewell' parties ahead of stricter Covid-19 measures and got slammed by the public (and a Minister and at least 1 doctor). So should people socialize at all if Singapore isn’t in lockdown? And can business be blamed for wanting to squeeze out some revenue? Amidst the current pandemic, the world also needs to brace itself for a condom shortage ‘cos of manufacturing plants closing down. Especially in Malaysia, who produce 1 out of every 5 condoms in the world. Whaaaaaaaaat.

March 25, 2020 YLB #41 - SG’s invasion of privacy shocks the New York Times and Malaysia’s Bomoh is back (and still ridiculous)
The New York Times wrote about civil rights plummeting worldwide as govts mine info to curb Covid-19. But does privacy even matter now? And Malaysia’s world-infamous Bomoh (a traditional shaman / mystic healer) is back with his shenanigans. But could there be something positive about it?
