Please allow me to share some of my thoughts on the “Ama Namin” issue as a devout Catholic and as a sociologist. There have been many views, I don’t think mine is any better, but I share merely to get them out and maybe engage with a few people.

I’ve been thinking about how the spectrum for *what intimacy is* looks different for every person.

I call it "the intimacy threshold":

It was six years ago, and my mate, Pink, had just been told he was going to die. He accepted the news with a grace I can only marvel at, but he said he’d a list of things he’d still like to do.

We sat in a pub one night and read it over. Eight things? Four months? Ok. Deal.

Many people don’t know how to (actually) apologize to someone.

Here’s how (🧵):

What happens when you catch COVID-19 the 2nd (3rd, 4th, etc.) time around?

Now we finally have the large data analysis (involving more than 5 million people) to reliably answer the question.

If you make streets safe and bikeable so that someone can bike to work instead of spend on commuting or gas, you likely save them P50-100 or more per day. That's a few meals' worth, so you're feeding them too. With everything getting more expensive - just something to consider

One last note before I call it a night:
If the international community ridicules us, remind them that the platforms through which misinformation spread were global. The consultancy firm was British.

It shouldn’t be this hard to vote. We shouldn’t be waiting in 35 degree heat for 5 hours to cast our ballots. A commission that had 6 years to prepare for the polls shouldn’t be failing us. We shouldn’t be worrying whether our votes are counted fairly. Filipinos deserve better.

I’ll say this as early as now: winning through a campaign based on lies, mass deception, and blatant historical distortions is tantamount to cheating your way to victory—and this will never be acceptable. We are ready to take on the parliament of the streets. We will not concede.

Hi, this is incorrect.

The "traditional surveys" are wrong not because traditional surveying is wrong.

But because the sampling methodology deployed specifically for these surveys is not the best one. Because the best one is more (a) expensive and (b) time consuming

A year ago, a non-academic friend listened to a talk I gave. I thought it went great. My friend disagreed.

She said that academics are experts at making interesting stuff boring—and that we should all take a speech class.

So I did. And here are 6 most useful things I learned.

We are paying a lot of attention to national elections and rightly so because a lot is at stake. But tomorrow, March 25, is also the start of the local campaign. And local elections are also important. 1/n

This video really speaks to me, and summarizes a lot of my introspection growing up.

I absolutely needed this information so easily accessible before, and I still need it now. I love this channel, and I think this video in particular can be extremely helpful for many

Proof of life and random accomplishment for the year:

Two months ago, I decided to start working out my whole body every day.

When I first started, I couldn’t even do one pushup with perfect form and full range of motion.

Now, I’ve been doing 60 perfect pushups every day. 😇
