Whoahhh! This is one of the strangest things an earthquake can do. As the M7.8 earthquake hit the Philippines last week, the ground in this video appears to move almost like liquid.

👀 (Watch until the end)

This can happen because of liquefaction. It's when intense shaking causes water trapped in loose soil to build up pressure, making solid ground temporarily lose its strength and behave more like a fluid.

It’s why people can struggle to stand, and why areas near water with loose, saturated soil can see the ground ripple, sink or even “flow” during powerful earthquakes.

‘BAKIT YUNG DALAWANG VICE CHAIRMAN NG BLUE RIBBON, MAY PLUNDER CASE?’

‘Yan ang naging pahayag ni Sen. Kiko Pangilinan patungkol sa nangyaring pagdinig ng Blue Ribbon Committee ng Cayetano bloc kahapon.

“Ang hirap dito sa kabila, iba ang sinasabi, iba ang ginagawa,” saad niya.

Nilinaw naman ng senador na wala siyang problema kay Sen. Pia Cayetano bilang chairperson ng komite. Sa Cayetano bloc, sina Sens. Rodante Marcoleta at Jinggoy Estrada ang vice chairpersons ng Blue Ribbon Committee.

Excuse me, Sen. Robin. Huwag nyo nga akong gamitin sa baluktot nyong naratibo. Acquitted na ako sa hinarap kong mga gawa-gawang kaso. Napakalayo ng sitwasyon ko sa pinasakay mong fugitive from justice na si Sen. Bato.

Saka neutralizing drug lords talaga? Sabihin nya yan sa pamilya ng libo-libong biktima ng EJK. Ipaliwanag nya yan sa ICC.

“Jesus, peace be upon him, was just a prophet.”

I used to say that all the time.

And honestly, it sounded respectful, safe, and reverent.

But here’s what nobody told me:

Calling Jesus “just a prophet” is like calling the sun a flashlight.

Technically, you acknowledged light… but you completely missed what you were looking at.

Because in Islam, “prophet” is the highest honor you can give someone.

But with Jesus, it actually becomes a downgrade.

Prophets say, “Follow God.”

Jesus said, “I am the way.”

Prophets point toward truth.

Jesus claimed to be truth.

And the Jews around Him understood exactly what He was saying, which is why they tried to kill Him for blasphemy.

Because no prophet talks like this:

“Before Abraham was, I AM.”
“I and the Father are one.”
“Your sins are forgiven.”

That is not normal prophetic language.

That is either madness, blasphemy, or divinity.

But it is never “just a prophet.”

So when Muslims say, “We love Jesus,” I always ask:

Do you love who Jesus actually claimed to be… or just the version you were told to accept?

Because once you read the red letters honestly, without fear or filters, you realize something dangerous:

The prophets spoke for God.

Jesus spoke as God.

And that changes everything.

Grabe. Ang pinakasukdulan talaga ay yung tangang mayabang.

Maipasok lang ang sariling katwiran, gagamitin na ang batas na parang goma — iuunat, pipilipitin, babaluktutin — para lang mapaboto ang katotong pinaghahanap ng hustisya.

Sorry, patola ako ngayon, kasi hindi ko talaga kayang unawain kung bakit tayo nagbabayad ng buwis para paswelduhin ang mga ganito.

Hindi na nga sumusunod sa batas, ipinagyayabang pa ang kamangmangan. Excuse po ba sila sa Constitution? May special lane ba ang katangahan sa Senado?

Indeed, the punishment of wise men is to be ruled by unwise men. Pero marami sila, kaya “men” na rin. Collective noun na yata ang kabobohan.

At kung maiinis kayo dahil kesyo nagmamarunong ako, i-block n’yo na ako. Walang pilitan dito. Hindi ko obligasyong gawing daycare ang wall ko para sa mga allergic sa common sense.

Hindi tayo uunlad sa ganitong klaseng pag-iisip: yung mali na nga, ipinipilit pa; yung batas na nga, ginagawang suggestion; yung accountability na nga, ginagawang favor sa tropa.

Kaya please, trolls at DDS, huwag muna kayong magtambay sa wall ko. Bad trip ako today. 😡

[Kiko Pangilinan @kikopangilinan]

Simple lang ito.

Yung kay Leila panahon ng Covid at siya ay nakakulong dahil nag surrender siya sa mga autoridad at nirespeto ang arresting officers. Law abiding.

Si Bato. Walang Covid ngayon, nagtatago at tinakasan ang mga autoridad. Law breaker.

Hindi dapat kinokonsinti ang law breaker.

Huwag magpaloko sa mga nagkukumpara ng langka sa durian.

Tigilan na ninyo ang mga paninira at mga kasinungalingan ninyong mga trolls na mga bayaran ng mga kurakot na pulitikong nasa likod ninyo.

Hindi nyo na kaya lokohin ang taumbayan.

[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

When I was Muslim, man, this verse used to mess me up.

Jesus on the cross saying, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

As a Muslim, I used to think: how does God feel forsaken by God? That sounds like weakness. That sounds like a prophet in pain.

But then I dug deeper.

And I realized Jesus was not speaking randomly. He was quoting Psalm 22.

That entire Psalm, written by King David centuries before Christ, is a prophecy about the crucifixion:

“They pierce my hands and feet.”
“They divide my garments among them.”
“All who see me mock me.”

In Jewish culture, quoting the first line of a Psalm pointed people to the entire passage.

So Jesus was not crying out in confusion.

He was declaring fulfillment.

He was saying: “This is that.”

And at the same time, He was carrying the full weight of sin, shame, abandonment, and suffering for humanity.

Every moment humanity has cried out, “God, where are you?” Christ stepped into that pain Himself.

That is not weakness.

That is intentional.

That is prophecy unfolding in real time.

That is the King bleeding on purpose so humanity could be brought near to God.

That is the Gospel.

SALN vs. Reality: Ang huling dineklarang SALN ni Chiz Escudero ay nagpapakita ng net worth na nasa ₱18M lamang. Sa isang “analytical perspective,” ang isang gabi ni Heart sa Paris fashion week (hotel, clothes, security, entourage) ay kayang ubusin ang kalahati ng dineklarang yaman ng kanyang asawa sa loob lang ng isang linggo.

—

Analytical Point: Sa mata ng batas (Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act), ang “unexplained wealth” ay hindi lang ang pera sa bangko, kundi pati ang lifestyle na hindi tugma sa legal na kita.

Kapag ang asawa ay “public servant” at ang kabiyak ay namumuhay na parang reyna ng ibang bansa, dapat magpaliwanag ang opisyal: Sino ang tunay na nagpopondo sa fairytale na ito

Hindi pwedeng ihiwalay ang lifestyle ni Heart sa accountability ni Escudero.

Kapag public official ka:
✔ Lahat ng galaw mo: public interest
✔ Lahat ng yaman: subject to scrutiny

At kung ang realidad ay parang fairy tale…
habang ang deklarasyon ay parang middle class…

Ito ay nararapat sa masusing imbestigasyon.

Hindi na sapat ang “fashion week photos” at “glamorous posts.”

Ang tanong ngayon ay hindi “Ano ang suot?”

Kundi:
“Saan galing ang pambili?”

Kung kaya mong ipakita ang luxury…
dapat kaya mo ring ipaliwanag ang source.

Kung hindi.. hindi na ito style. Ito ay isyu.

[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

As an Ex-Muslim, let me explain Muhammad and “The Satanic Verses” in the Quran. 

This will shock you.

was a good prophet until he wasn't. I wanted to believe he was sincere, that maybe he was just misunderstood, maybe he repented later on in his life. 

But the more I studied the timeline of his ministry, the harder it was to ignore the shift.

Early Muhammad in Mecca preached peace, talked about one God, and tried to win over Jews and Christians. But later in Medina, that’s when it changed.

Suddenly, it transitioned to power and polygamy and violence, and revelations started sounding a lot like personal convenience. Then there’s a part nobody really wants to talk about in apologetics - “the Satanic verses.”

Ibn Ishaq, Islam’s earliest biographer, says Muhammad delivered verses that glorified pagan idols and then blamed it on Satan. And you tell me, how does a prophet mistake a demon’s voice for God’s?

Imagine if Paul or Peter did that.

Imagine if Jesus said, “oops, that part was from the devil.”

You would never trust that message again. But with Muhammad, there’s a double standard where you’re not allowed to question. Even when he married a child, took extra wives, and had people killed, you’re told to submit.

And that’s when I knew.

A real prophet doesn’t serve himself.

He sacrifices himself to serve others.

Only one man in history never changed under pressure and still laid down his life.

And that’s Jesus Christ.

𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗡 𝗔𝗡𝗚 𝗪𝗘𝗦𝗧 𝗣𝗛𝗜𝗟𝗜𝗣𝗣𝗜𝗡𝗘 𝗦𝗘𝗔! 🇵🇭

Sa plenary session ng Senado nitong Lunes, February 2, iginiit natin ang kahalagahan ng pagpapatupad at pagtatanggol sa 2016 arbitral ruling, gayundin ang paninindigan sa ating uniformed personnel na humaharap sa agresyon ng China sa West Philippine Sea (WPS).

Kailangang suportahan ng Senado ang Philippine Coast Guard (PCG), Department of National Defense (DND), at Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) sa patuloy nilang pagharap sa mga iligal na aktibidad ng China sa rehiyon.

Sapat na ang mga umiiral na legal documents at rulings bilang batayan para para igiit na iligal na sinasakop ng China ang ilang bahagi ng ating exclusive economic zone (EEZ) at inaangkin din ang humigit-kumulang 150,000 square kilometers ng ating continental shelf at 381,000 square kilometers ng ating EEZ:

📄 𝗔𝗱𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗢𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗡𝗼. 𝟮𝟵 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝟮𝟬𝟭𝟮 na opisyal na nagngalan sa mga karagatang nasa kanlurang bahagi ng kapuluan bilang West Philippine Sea

📄 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗰𝘁 𝗡𝗼. 𝟭𝟮𝟬𝟲𝟰 o 𝗣𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗭𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗔𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰, na nagtatakda ng iba't ibang maritime zones ng bansa batay sa international law at kumikilala sa exclusive sovereign rights ng Pilipinas sa mga likas-yaman sa mga lugar na ito

📄 𝟮𝟬𝟭𝟲 𝗔𝗿𝗯𝗶𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗯𝘂𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗿𝘂𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 na nagbasura sa nine-dash-line claim ng China at nagpatunay na nilabag nito ang sovereign rights ng Pilipinas sa loob ng EEZ nito

"There is no braver coast guard in the world than the 🇵🇭Philippine Coast Guard ... that faces overwhelming odds with the devotion, with the resilience, with the professionalism, with the courage the Philippine Coast Guard does. And the fact that they have been singled out for this kind of attack frankly...just offends me."
