    Nkkaproud pa rin ba maging Pinoy?

    Whats your take on this? With all the things happening in the PH eg government, corruptions, pogo, crime rate, pasosyal culture, ganun. Sa totoo lang mahirap sbhin na proud to be pinoy ka pag lagi ganyan nkkita sa news, i get na yung culture natn super bongga and our beaches. Also, the fact na marami saten gusto nlang maging mangibang bansa. #pinoys

    Stealing foods offered to dead loved ones dahil trip lang

    Saw a post regarding thoughts on those who take food sa mga puntod. Then it happened that I saw this video. Ang babastos at proud na proud pa sila. Gusto sumilar pero maling paraan naman ginawa nila.

    Natuwa ako sa tinuro saakin sa LWR (Life and works of Rizal)

    Baka masama akong tao sa pagtawa dito

    Pero alam niyo bang si Jose Protacio Rizal Mercado Y Alonso Realonda, AKA National Hero ng Pinas! Pinrank niya yung asawa niyang buntis? (Josephine Bracken), ginulat niya ba nmn si ate.

    Si Josephine nmn kawawa, napatumba sa iron stand at nagsorry si Rizal.

    Medyo dark na yung part na toh pero, yung anak rin nila that was still baking inside Josephine, si Francisco (named after Rizal's father), was born prematurely and died after, kaya medyo sad rin...

    Pero still Rizal naman, why did you do dat to your wayf 😩😭??

    My mom has cancer and in need of palliative care, what to do?

    Quick background, wala na kaming other family members and my father already passed away. Kami lang ni mama (70 y.o) ang nagtutulungan. Di na gusto ni mama magpagamot since late stage rectum cancer na meron siya. Ang main focus nalang po namin is comfort and hygiene since sobrang hirap na siya makatayo, at kahit alalayan ko siya nahihirapan din kami since mahina rin ako physically. Kailangan yung kaya siya buhatin or atleast tools to help her, na meron usually sa hospital. And problema lang is wala talaga kaming pera para i-admit siya sa hospital. Nag-quit na rin po ako ng trabaho ko since last year to take care of her sa bahay and naubos na po savings ko. Sobrang worried ko lang po kasi biglaan yung pangangayat nya, last month kaya niya pa lumbas, pero ngayon hindi na. Baka mag worsen pa po kasi yung situation niya and mas maganda nasa ospital po siya for that timing. Hindi ko lang po talaga alam saan uumpisahan, tumawag po ako sa PGH pero tinransfer transfer lang po ako at binabaan. Need lang po ng information sino pwede tawagan, if may mga charity po ba to reach out to, or any information that could help us. Thank you in advance!!

    what do i tell the immigration?

    hello last 2023 of march we officially moved back to the philippines from USA we are dual citizens but we only have us passport (we have filipino citizenship papers) unfortunately we didnt notice till last month that our us passport was stamped for a visa expiration (me and my husband) they didnt ask us in the airport if we were dual citizens. what do i do? will i be paying for overstaying even if we are dual citizens if so how much will it be?

    for my sons case when he was born i was a filipino citizen then, tho he was born in US he was also stamped, we reported his birth abroad in philippine embassy in california but we never heard back, what should we do for him? and isnt he a filipino citizen too by birth right? also will i be paying too and if so how much do you think it will be?

    Magkano dapat ang budget ng senior na bedridden?

    For context, yung lola ko ay 89 years old na bedridden na. May mga anak siya sa abroad at meron din na nandito sa Pinas. Bale yung 2 anak niya sa abroad, nagpapadala ng tig 10k/month. So 20k/month yung budget niya.

    Yung gastos niya ngayon consist of:

    • gatas (dati naka Ensure pero ngayon Bear Brand na lang)
    • maintenance na gamot
    • diaper
    • kuryente (24/7 naka aircon)
    • juice and Monde na mamon (sobra konti na magkanin kasi minsan di na niya nangunguya)

    Kasi recently, nagrereklamo yung tita ko sa abroad na bakit daw kinukulang yung padala niya sa lola ko. Naloloka na kasi ako umintindi.

    Pahingi naman ng insights nyo. Salamat!

    Nakaka-experience na kayo ng mga beggars na nagtatambol sa mga subdivisions na akala mo parada pero nanlilimos lang?

    Hindi siya ung mga ordinaryong street beggars na may dala-dalang tambol gawa sa pringles na ginagaya ung budots beats while nasa jeep, meron silang mga actual na tambol gamit pang-parada na laging iniingay sa umaga.

    Paminsan-minsan kada umaga, may mga nagtatambol sa amin na akala mo may fiesta o paradang paparating tungkol sa malaking celebration na hindi mo alam, pero pagkalabas mo, nakikita mo lang ay mga binata na nanlilimos ng pera sa iyo (at times may sobre pa). Kelangan pa nilang sirain ung tulog ng iba para lang manlimos.

    Meron na bang naka-experience ng ganitong phenomenon malapit sa inyo?

    So sad: We freely feed trolls in the name of satire and self high-fives

    I really find this page funny most of the time, but lately I realized talaga na totoo nga: Algorithms boost what's engaged with, not the intent of the messenger, lalo na diyan sa atin.

    Sharing ng content ng trolls, kahit para pagtawanan, be ironic, be satirical, etc ay nagbibigay sa kanila ng inaasam asam nila na attention. Basta may engagement, mabo-boost lalo na sa mga impressionable and may biases na mga tao online. Making fun of them benefits them pa, tinutulungan pa natin sila isend yung message across, sana we learn our lessons na lalo na last election.

    Anik-anik topic, let people do be happy with what they want with their own.

    Might be an unpopular opinion:

    I think the “anik-anik” talks should just stop. I see both sides and I think both the gate keeping and the cloutchasing of other people are ruining the fun.

    Oo, biglang nagtrend and the sad thing about it is that nagmamahal lalo yung mga “anikaniks” (mapa popmart man yan or mga souvenirs sa tourist spots) but it’s been happening for the past years and nagiging issue lang naman na sa iba nung nauso yung labubu.

    Imo, there’s no need for competition on who got the most cheaper or randomest anikaniks. Some people start somewhere rin and you wouldnt really know baka mamaya may random aniks rin sila na they dont actually show kasi they didn’t think that was anikanik thing.

    I think it’s kind of pointless? As I’ve said, let people be happy with what they want. Ang dating kasi may cloutchasers na and may gatekeepers pa. When one thing became a trend ofcourse may makikiuso pero making issues about whether one is fake or not by measuring the “authenticity” is absurd when one can be both or some would be the other even years before.

    Ppl would be way happier with minding their own and surrounding themselves with ppl thats like them. Ang closed off kasi kung sa lahat iggatekeep. Look at those kpop and anime ppl na mat anik-anik, a lot of them are very welcoming sa mga nagsstart pa lang.

    Ayuda to ease Inflation XD

    Just heard that the Secretary of Finance Recto is justifying Ayuda because of inflation. However, there is inflation because there is too much money circulating.

    So how does giving free money ease inflation? We are doomed with this kind of officials. I bet they would use the funds to buy votes.

    The Mockery Surrounding Diwata’s Candidacy Reveals A Lack Of Understanding Of The Partylist System

    When Diwata filed his COC he was ridiculed online and thrown into the growing list of social media influencers and celebrities who are using their clout to become elected officials. However, I would argue that including Diwata as a “joke candidate” reveals the lack of understanding people have with the partylist system. Partylists have become a joke in themselves with many being used by incumbent officials to extend their terms or give their spouses and relatives congressional seats. Partylists were always intended to represent sectoral groups and a business operator who grew a successful brand is the perfect representative for a VENDORS Partylist. What should be ridiculed is not candidates like Diwata but partylists who represent nothing other than the ambitions of billionaires and incumbent officials.
