Alam ko marami tayong feels about sa mga tao nag popost ng "Proud Pinoy", and also the fact it's just generally shitty being in a developing country with a shit government. But I love the Philippines, and I'll always be proud of being Filipino.

The negative things, (Eg: the crab mentality, classism, bullying, racism, colonialism mindset, sexism and overt rape culture, and extreme hierarchy of corruption) Are all things every single country experiences, just one look at the US, the supposed "go there get better and get rich country" we view in the Philippines, or other countries we see as an escape from here experiences the same problems, if not more.

I am posting this, because we need to believe we can be better. We need to love ourselves and be proud of who we are. Yes, those shit things are shit and negative, but saying things like "oh ganyan talaga mga Pilipino" or "Eh ano magagawa, Pilipinas yan " or any self deprecation of ourselves and our country won't help. In fact, all it does is lessen the accountability we need to take. By saying "it is what it is" or "that's just who we are" without recognizing what is valid critique or not, we handicap ourselves from being better.

What if, instead of "I hate the Philippines, I hate the crab mentalities, I hate the colonialism mentality etc." and accepting as it is and something that can never be changed, and instead opting to escape somewhere else or forever hating it.

What if, we acknowledge and be better? What if "The Philippines is a wonderful place with wonderful people. The mentalities, the corruption, and colonialism mindset we set and experience is bad, and we should be better, and believe that we all can be better and change those."

We can do this, we've all got each other 💚

Former host ng machong tsismisan talks about the issue. Apparently may anak din siya na may autism.

Wala namang magawa sa corrupt, bullshit admin nationally and locally, so why not have fun at their expense? Yang anak pa ng mayor na yan nang threaten na hindi i renew DTI license dahil ginawang meme si mayora. Naka hakini mudra (see second photo) kasi sya

Ayon sa mga pag-aaral sa medisina:

Ang pag-ihi pagkatapos ng pakikipagtalik ay nakakatulong maglinis at mag-flush ng mga bakterya mula sa daanan ng ihi (urethra) bago pa sila makaakyat sa pantog at maging sanhi ng UTI.

Hi! I'm 24F, and I'm looking for musician friends to help me bring my heart and life back into music.

I used to release music and was really putting my heart into it. I had new ideas everyday. I composed music, built everything from start to finish, and I also had a companion—my ex best friend. He was a guy and we've been friends for almost a decade, he's literally like a brother to me.

He helped me materialize all my songs before. Although I knew how to play almost every common instrument, I compose better when I have ideas to throw around with and someone to ask to "hey can you try this melody on this and that".

Two years ago, he sexually harassed me in my sleep. After that, I lost all my soul and heart in making music. I can still play instruments and cover songs, but my composing just died.

I want to write and make music again, so I'm hoping to find some friends who I can be close with and make songs with as well.

I hope you'll all be kind enough in the comments. Thank you.

Nadaanan ko tong cheez it sa grocery kanina, tapos pag-uwi ko habang binubuksan at kinakain ko, bigla kong naisip na ang tagal ko na palang hindi nakakain nito. Dati limang pesos lang to eh.

Bigla na lang bumalkk sa isip ko yung mga araw nung bata pa ako nung wala pang cellphone at puro laro lang sa labas ang atupag naming magpipinsan at magkakababata. Yung maghapon kaming naghahabulan, tumbang preso, tago taguan, nagbahay bahayan, tsaka naliligo sa ilog.

Pagpatak ng hapon, uuwi agad para sama-samang manood ng dragon ball, gundam, zoids, ghost fighter, flame of recca, detective conan, at daimos. Kapag nag-brownout naman, walang naiinis kasi matic tambay sa kalsada para magkuwentuhan at magtatawanan, tapos sobrang excited kapag may family outing sa dagat.

Ngayon, may kanya kanya na kaming buhay at bihira na lang magkitakita, pero nakakatuwa lang balikan kung gaano kasimple at kasaya yung pagkabata natin noon dahil lang sa simpleng chichirya.

Yung naratibo ng mga Pinoy na kampi sa China na hindi natin sila kayang labanan ay isang malaking kalokohan na pilit isinusubo sa atin ng mga pulitikong kasama sa payroll ng gobyerno ng China. Nauuto naman ang ilan nating kababayan.

TOTOO na kahit 100 taon pa mula ngayon, hindi tayo mananalo sa full-scale war laban sa kanila. PERO hindi 'yan ang isyu. May ibang bansa na bang giniyera ang China kahit napakarami nilang binubully na maliliit na bansa?

Hindi natin sila kaya militarily, BUT we can beat them kung dadalhin natin ang laban sa mata ng buong mundo. Kaya natin silang IPAHIYA sa international stage. Kailangan lang nating MANINDIGAN at IPAGLABAN ang ating soberanya!

Sensitibo ang China sa kanilang imahe sa world stage. Alam nilang nakatutok sa kanila ang mga bansang may kakayahang lumaban sa kanila nang sabayan, at hindi nila gugustuhing masira ang reputation nila. May malalaking business interests din sila sa buong mundo, hindi lang Pilipinas ang iniisip nila.

Kaya nakakalungkot na napakababaw mag-isip ng maraming Pilipino na "giyera agad" ang nasa utak kapag pinag-uusapan ang pagtayo laban sa kanila. Napakadali nating mauto ng mga pulitikong may pansariling interes.

Wag na kayo magtaka bakit siya yung na appoint.

This is a nepotism at its finest.

Dad lowkey don’t want to use his money to pay for lavish trips and luxurious life of the kid. Dad contact friend. Friend appoints Girl. Girl in government. Girl will use current connection to pay for lavish trips.

Hindi to basta bastang appointment. Ito ay pagnanakaw. Pagnanakaw ng opporturnidad para sa isang beterano na may simpatya talaga sa mahihirap.

While watching Senate hearing in budget deliberation, di ko maiwasang mapansin itong si imee marcos while risa hontiveros is speaking. Ano yan madam? Inatake ka na naman ng isprikitik?

Nahihiya pa ako sa kanila

Ako pa yung Chinoy dito pero parang sila pa yung mas loyal sa mga Chinese 🤷‍♂️

No contest talaga

Sa kaguluhan sa politika natin ngayon, sino sa tingin nyo ang maypagka- Felipe Buencamino o Pedro Paterno.

Medyo nakakabahala ang mga kumakampi sa Chinese Ambassador. Sa tingin ko ano man kulay mo sa politika o kahit wala man, traydor ka sa bansa kung kakampi ka sa isang foreign bully state.
