'Yung mga Pinoy na pro-Israel at pro-U.S., sana alam niyo na sila ang dahilan kung bakit sumisirit pataas ang presyo ng langis, pamasahe, at bilihin ngayon. Dahil hindi sila mapakali kapag wala silang bansa na ginigiyera o winawasak.
No cure for endometriosis. No proper management for menopause. No adequate symptomatic relief for menstrual discomfort. But let’s get handicapped sperm a wheelchair to make not so healthy babies because it would make men feel strong.
A segment from the pre-war Filipino film 𝘛𝘶𝘯𝘢𝘺 𝘯𝘢 𝘐𝘯𝘢 (1939). It shows how the terno moved and how it was handled when the wearer danced.
This movie is one of only 6 feature-length films that survived the Japanese occupation during World War II.
Destroy the idea that men should respect women because we are their daughters, mothers, and sisters.
Reinforce the idea that men should respect women because we are people.

it’s a privilege to be able to fall asleep without fear, drink clean water, see sunlight or hug your loved ones. i pray for all the people suffering in the world who don’t have these simple freedoms and i will never stop speaking up for those who can’t.
i think this is such a great reminder that sustainability isn’t new to southeast asia. banana leaves, woven baskets and reusable containers all existed before plastic convenience. i hope more SEA countries push policies and habits that promote and encourage these practices.
not gatekeeping ube from the international market, but if y’all are just going to turn it into the next “dubai chocolate” or matcha trend without investing in or crediting the local farmers who sustain it, then maybe don’t. they deserve better than another aesthetic cash grab
This was Philippines in 2016 when people were supporting #tokhang after Duterte was elected.
Bloodbath every night at communities in the slums and Duterte’s troll farms dominated the narrative that the victims deserved it.

It has been 67 years since she left Earth…
and yet, her story still sits heavy on the human conscience.
Laika was not just a dog in a rocket.
She was trust, wrapped in fur.
A quiet heartbeat that believed humans would protect her—
because that is what dogs do.
Her real name was Kudryavka, meaning “curly.”
A stray from the frozen streets of Moscow.
No crown. No shelter. No choice.
She was chosen not for greatness,
but because she was calm, obedient, and strong enough to endure pain.
As if suffering itself became her qualification.
On November 3, 1957, she was placed inside Sputnik 2.
The capsule had food.
It had water.
It had padded walls.
But it had no return plan.
No goodbye.
No understanding.
No way home.
Some say she lived for a few hours.
Some say a few days.
What we know for certain is this—
Her final moments were spent alone,
orbiting a planet she could no longer touch,
surrounded by silence, fear, and heat—
unaware that the world below was cheering a victory built on her life.
Laika circled Earth 2,570 times.
A small body carrying the weight of human ambition.
Until, months later, her capsule burned up on re-entry—
and she disappeared into the same fire that made her a legend.
Laika never chose to be a pioneer.
She never asked to be history.
She never understood science, politics, or progress.
She only trusted.
And in that trust, she became the first living being
to bridge the distance between Earth and the stars.
Today, we don’t remember her with pride alone.
We remember her with gratitude,
with regret,
and with the quiet promise that progress should never forget compassion.
Because sometimes,
the bravest hearts don’t roar.
They beat softly…
and still change the world forever. 🐾🌍✨
