Current mood after Duterte's arrest.

This historic day is not yet over for the Philippines. I imagine all the houses in the country are tuned in. Former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has entered the plane bound for The Hague, Netherlands where the International Criminal Court is. www.youtube.com/live/VyxRl8m...

Happy Tongue Out Tuesday! Blep. #CorgiCrew

Heck yeah!

I love it. Feels organic. Like the world is healing a bit.

They can’t pretend they’re suddenly for cancer research just because they brought a kid to Congress. Sheesh.

I’m not doomscrolling I’m just diligently researching a very long very stupid dystopian apocalyptic satire called America

I feel like it would be a suit that @dieworkwear.bsky.social would highly approve.

This has been circulating across social media, especially thru Douyin (original Chinese version of Tiktok). It claims that Palawan—an island that is an integral part of the #Philippines —belongs to #China. Such audacity, extending beyond their already ILLEGAL 9-dash line, must be condemned. #Edusky

It’s as transparent as orange foundation.

Welp, WWIII confeermed.

these chowderheads forget that Zelensky before he took ion this job was probably the single most popular comedian in his country, dude could roast Glenn like the last turkey of the year in his sleep, this answer was actually him holding back and he still wrecked this dunce

Monday thought:

elon musk's dad, a racist who was known for saying things like "they let the blacks overrun zimbabwe", is on record saying he didn't like maye musk's family because they were way too virulently racist for him, let that sink in

Marcoleta is a traitor.

The Tagalog word for bottle cap, tansan, was derived from a brand of sparkling water that was first introduced in the Philippines in 1902. It was apparently the first product of its kind that used the bottle closure so familiar to us today.

The Philippines to the US: First time?

We have never forgotten. Nor shall we ever forget. National Artist Nick Joaquin ended his play, “A Portrait of the Artist as Filipino” with a sweet poignant elegy for the Old Manila that was wiped out by World War II. 📸: Ruins of the Legislative Bldg, Manila, 1945 🖼️: “War Ruins” 1945, F. Amorsolo

Under Tronald Drumpf, the US is repeating the mistakes of the Philippines under Du30.

Gosh, I remember when we had an actual president instead of a loudmouth bully who won't take responsibility for his actions.

#TodayinHistory in 1945, 80 years ago, 113 U.S. soldiers & 280 Filipino guerrillas infiltrated enemy lines to liberate 552 prisoners-of-war from the Japanese-controlled camp in Cabanatuan, Nueva Ecija #PH — known as the Great Raid at Cabanatuan. www.facebook.com/share/18TMm3... #Edusky #WWII

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

One of my favorites! (All of Austen’s novels are worth reading. She was an absolute master of acerbic wit.)

Why is it that every time I see this Kennedy, I'm reminded of a Dick Tracy villain?

Don't let them turn Drumpf's predecessor into the boogeyman. This was the favorite tactic of the troll farms of the Duterte regime to discredit Leni Robredo.

Definitely stirring up shit and chaos on orders from the baldy from Russia.

Always relevant.

R4 bloke says "women deserve equality" Maybe if we started saying "women are equal, why are men removing it" more might be achieved. Equality isn't in the gift of men, we have it already. Men need to stop undermining it.
