oh shit, THEY FOUND ME, i hadn't gotten an alumni newsletter in years, i thought i was safe i'm supposed to write a 1500 word essay reflecting on memorable college experiences can i tell the story of the time I was nearly arrested on suspicion of being a communist rebel recruit?

I'm stressed out for what happens next. We've just past the two year countdown for the 2028 presidential election and goddamnit if Sara Duterte and friends won't stop at nothing to win it darimulut.substack.com/p/mayhem-in-...

it's always interesting to me that some people think ed was "out of character" at the start of season 2 because he was already passively suicidal, violent, emotional. it just wasn't depicted too explicitly and he obviously got worse when he lost his only hope that he could have a different life

Scheduled power outage for three hours tonight <sigh> Well, at least it won't be so hot But might be muggier too company.meralco.com.ph/news-and-adv...

So annoying when Plans for Today hinge on whether or not I get a Very Important Email this morning C'mon, I gotta know if I have to gird my loins for an arduous commute in this unrelenting heat or if I can just tinker around at home in relative air-conditioned comfort* *Luzon power grid willing

Hit by a spoiler for that show first thing in the morning <adds yet another tag combination to the collection I already have in moderation> Fortunately, Someone decided to post thirst traps in a tank top to distract me <waggles eyebrows>

😘

DAMMIT missed a spoiler tag for That Show *adds to temporary muted list* (no, not a political post this time)

Sorry about the local politics liveblogging, pirate moots, but life in this country can be absurd at times

oh my days, you guys are the 30 rock meme right now

ABS CBN running want definitely sounds like live fire and screams

Day 2 of Senate lockdown as now the Philippine National Police, the National Bureau of Investigation, AND the Army have now showed up at the Senate building just to arrest this one potato Now literal shots fired www.youtube.com/live/ikNRO8F...

Temporarily muting tags as I'm not ready to watch it yet

I need to dunk on that stupid Bato de la Rosa again What does it say about you that Every. Single. Major. TV News Anchor. Is visibly exasperated at you and your obvious idiocy Video's in Filipino but you don't need to understand it to register 24 Oras anchor Mel Tiangco's Annoyed Auntie Stance

If I grow up I want to write this well www.nytimes.com/2026/04/27/b...

Sonny Trillanes is such a world-class Duterte hater that even though he's a loose cannon, in this respect I gotta stan Christopher "Bong" Go is Duterte's former personal assistant/nanny turned senator who is up to his eyeballs in crimes against humanity, too English translation in the alt text

This is *the* X Files episode for me. Exploded my brain in a bunch of ways when I first saw it. Even if it doesn't literally change the way you experience the world, it is an unbelievably clever, incredibly funny, dark but hopeful episode.

Hell yeah they brought out the big guns-- Chel Diokno ❤️, Leila de Lima, Jinkee Luistro, Terry Ridon Also the #ImpeachSara movement got 6M signatures and counting and it's only been 2 days

Alice Guo 2.0?

The Philippine Senate did not just protect Senator Bato Dela Rosa, who is wanted by the ICC for crimes against humanity. This is a deliberate effort to make accountability impossible. Shame on the senators for dragging PH democracy through the gutter. rightsreport.org/2026/05/12/b...

genuinely unnerving to me that the palantir guy is taika waititi's wario

Wonder if they're still there

Neil Diamond's classic "Squirrel, You'll Be An Adult Squirrel Soon"

Anong kalokohan 'to? Little Miss Philippines ba 'to? Is it still a coup if these f*ckers VOTED FOR EACH OTHER? Christ, these wankers

yes and all this crazy happened in the span of a few hours this is why i can never leave this country and why an old Kiwi university colleague of mine retired here, because it was either this or watch nothing but sheep back home (his words)

ohhhh my god i'm dying look at this doofus desperately running away from the Long Arm of the Law (NBI agents with a copy of the ICC warrant of arrest) set to cancan music FB Reel from Ito Chua, with the caption AT NAPATID PA NGANI!* (and he tripped!) RUN BATO RUN! www.facebook.com/share/v/1D1m...

wait there is FOOTAGE of Bato literally RUNNING AWAY from NBI agents in the halls of the Senate HWAAAAHAAHAHAHHAHAHAAA ugh why is everyone posting on FACEBOOK (googles *how to save video off FB*)

...and then it's gonna go to trial in front of the clownshow that is the Senate, now controlled by Duterte toadies Unless Bato gets yeeted to The Hague as god intended please please pleeeeaaaasssseee (I can't believe I'm rooting for that cowboy Antonio Trillanes but here we are)

oh, i just realized I missed my favorite Oompa Loompa of Rage and Justice, Terry Ridon, casting his vote for impeachment

oh shut it, wala ka pa ring baba, you useless toadying wanker and what the hell is that barong tagalog, it's schizophrenic it's the ugliest one i've ever seen and i used to date someone who wore eye-searing orange and green ones WHILE ARGUING IN COURT

Sorry for the posts, high drama at the Philippine Senate today, now on lockdown So very exciting and infuriating at the same time Will we be yeeting another criminal Hague-ward tonight? But Nicolas "Badass PokerFace" Torre is no longer the head of the PNP

And OF COURSE Bato moved to bar Trillanes and the NBI from entering the chamber

Ugh, of COURSE they pull this shit just in time for the House plenary votes on the Sara impeachment And of course that insult to Sontarans everywhere, Bato de la Rosa, FINALLY shows up to work now that the Chinless Wonder in the new Senate Prez and he's safe I hate this fucking clownshow so much

Sunday: the long dark teatime of the soul, and in the mood to bingewatch a detective #KDrama featuring a blind profiler and a rookie cop with a photographic memory chasing down a serial killer #JangHyuk #Sooyoung #TellMeWhatYouSaw

now thats an anecdote with a punch, from Gillian Tett www.ft.com/content/c0ae...

what’s extra fun about this is that everyone forgets Zendaya’s performance of 24K Magic right before it and it was stunning! would easily have won most episodes of the show and then Tom came out and did… that

every time costa rica is mentioned i’m like. remember when we scared rhys so bad with our feral behavior that he ran off there

sorry, I’m still stuck on “I fucking hate your friends” because this is the most couple thing EVER and stede deserved that little rant

the decuntification of stede bonnet and all his deleted f-bombs ("and i'm real fucking nice" / "i fucking hate your friends") 💔💔💔 i hope he's swearing like a sailor in that inn rn

Repost to make it die faster

Can completely hear Rhys saying this and it is giving me much joy
