Anyway, the march to the Edsa People Power monument was empowering and inspiring as expected. Let this photo be a reminder that our struggles are linked. From Palestine to the Philippines, stop the US war machine.

Took a break from socials for a couple of days and missed posting anything for #edsa39 But my thoughts can be summed up with this quote from Direk Lino Brocka: "Absolutely no tears."

Just 20! For the price of a coffee, you can save a family from darkness and spread light after genocide. ☕️🤎🙏🏽

Man, I gotta learn to block a lot more people.

I cannot tell you how upset I would be if someone tried to "um akshully" me at work with a ChatGPT screenshot. I, of course, am not a VC with infinite money - so I am apparently the wrong mark for this move anyway.

I once had a heated exchange with someone about Gaza, and after a while they got tired of it and went, verbatim, "Yes yes, war bad bro. Unless it's defending against Russia." Believe me when I say I was too stunned to speak further.

Trump is vulgar and clumsy but everything he's threatening Palestinians with has already been done or tried before, just more subtle. The good thing is, his vulgarness will push many governments to publicly condemn or consent to ethnic cleansing. Good. Tell us who you are.

My millenial hangup is that I refuse to use POV incorrectly. I'm sorry, I know that language evolves, but I do not.

I hate how much attention I have to pay to American politics and actions abroad, because, evidently, a lot of them just, don't do it themselves? The daily news cycles that we were looking at must have been completely different because I saw a lot of dead Palestinian children in mine.

"if Elon Musk is a nazi then how come he's so pro-israel?" Is incredibly funny because it's like asking "if a cow is a mammal, then how come it produces milk?"

what netanyahu or trump wanted or were planning is meaningless. biden was the president, with the ability to bring about a ceasefire entirely, completely, absolutely within his power, and he didn't, because he didn't want to

It's ceasefire now, then an end to the occupation next. Like many others, I'm thrilled at the idea of a ceasefire sparing lives that would have otherwise have been lost. But the fight for a free Palestine is not over. It's free Palestine, until Palestine is free.

Quoting this so that people understand where I'm coming from when I criticize the US. I am a Filipino-Algerian living in the Philippines. I am aware of the imperialist threat of China when I make these remarks.

It was hilarious seeing this post on Twitter first, because over there it's full of people loose in the comments very rationally explaining that, they too, are stupid idiots.

Biden is not a good man, and even beyond him essentially handing the presidency back to Trump he should be remembered for his administration being the key enablers of the genocide of the Palestinian people.

At least one Palestinian has been killed and several wounded after an Israeli quadcopter drone dropped a bomb in the vicinity of a school in Jabalia, in the northern Gaza Strip. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/e60abb

Nate here, fighting back tears as I type. @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social is a Palestinian game developer from the city of Nablus– the same birthplace as my father-in-law. Baba hates it when I say father-in-law. I use the term only so you know he’s my wife’s biological father, not mine. 1/x

Let the record show that the whole world was aware

IF ICHIGO IS IN TEKKEN 8 I WILL CRY - I SWEAR TO WHOEVER YOU BELIEVE IN I WILL CRY

We just normal men

oh no I'm going to be real obnoxious about PoE 2 aren't I?

*gets 6 likes* wow this is doing numbers huh

...are we sure about this?

I'll die on this hill (I don't know if this counts as underrated, it was reviewed pretty well I just don't know a single person irl who's played it but me)

Me: I’m a writer Them: so you write? Me: let’s not get carried away

Tons of other people have already said this, but I've got to reiterate that one of the best things about this site is that I am not constantly bombarded with the most smooth-brained conservative takes from 'just some idiot with a mic #3'.

Anxiety sucks, man. I get one negative thought for a second, and now it's all I think about. That's it, that's all that's in my brain. It's like the TV in my head tuned into a channel where everyone hates me, and I can't find the remote.

I AM NEVER LEAVING HERE
