Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

Made a new community: !my_history@monyet.cc.

I dedicated it for the telling of obscure lesser-known local histories that is not on "mainstream" history i.e. the textbooks.

I'm not a historian, not by a long shot, but it doesn't take one to appreciate echoes of our past. Echoes that we need to repeat else it'd disappear forever.


As a side note: I create communities when I found none for which I wanted to share stuff I'm interested in at that moment. I may not be that qualified to curate the subject matter. I'm basically parking on it until smarter people come forth and take charge.

The exceptions to these are !restoran_vargina@monyet.cc and !rukbut_dev@monyet.cc. 😂

The history on Mahathir from his Iskandar Kutty root is worth to mention that it didn't get on mainsteam history enough.

Iskandar Kutty is such a shame for him to deny his past and he thinks it brought shame to himself, a fact that he couldn't alter in universe, no matter which timeline he intends to put himself in, he will always be a Tamil.

Before this German guy from HQ came to the workshop, everyone said that I should be careful, follow the procedure and just not annoy him generally because he's very serious and has scolded people before

But now that I've met him, he seems alright, let me try out tools that I've never had the chance to use before, gave me tips and shortcuts I can take when repairing.

I think he's just serious with the staff and I'm an apprentice, technically I'm learning so I can get away with a lot of things.

Cool guy, a huge old Mercedes nerd too.

Just an apprenticeship but a huge fan of the W126 would love to own a C126 someday.

Good choice, assuming there's a road tax exemption for them. The 500SE is a boat.

Here's some ~~W210~~ W201 porn:
