Confusion 101: are state relations influenced by the volume of trade (both in strategic and non-strategic commodities) or is it the other way around ― that the volume of trade influences state relations?

Or are both endogenous variables that simultanously affect each other?

Today, we mourn the passing of our dear friend & colleague, @chimp_rex. Rex, @UNDPPH Head of Solutions Mapping, was a vibrant part of our Labs Network, and we will miss his energy, intelligence, and positivity. Our deepest condolences to his family and friends in the Philippines

When we think about fear, there are two types, legitimate fear for which there is some valid basis and fear that is rooted in our mental projections. There’s a Tibetan saying that if you let your mind run wild, you’ll see a robber in an empty house.

Might be saying this prematurely, but Elon Musk has killed twitter and is helping the propagation of fake news more than free speech.

The world is slowly starting to reject capitalism as the end-all-be-all source of productive motivation as more and more people quit their jobs and reject the hustle culture. The economic theories on Degrowth and Decoupling look to be where we're headed.

Confidential funds? Might as well just call it pork barrel

Mind you my sister is preparing for her board exams in this environment, while we both have work that needs reliable and decent internet connection yet this still hasn’t been resolved?

All I’m asking is, what would it take for you to actually care? @PLDT_Cares

[Juan @juantheworld]

Already 3-weeks of having unstable internet, as it keeps on disconnecting 2-3 times a day with 15-90 minutes worth of downtime every time. A technician already went inside the house to look at the router and asked if he could step out for a bit. HE NEVER CAME BACK @PLDT_Cares

[Juan @juantheworld]

24 hours with no internet now, highly considering boycotting @PLDTHome. Also p.s. your customer service lines need massive improvement, you can’t just keep sending us tracking tickets without including actual updates

Covid-19 is back boys stay at home

When sharing your screen during online meetings, is it a common office decorum to say,

“Apologies for the number of tabs open”?

Or do I just not close tabs?

[Juan @juantheworld]

There should be a switch in social media platforms that turns off the algorithm for any food-related posts. Rly need this for my constantly hungry self

Sometimes it’s best to hold off your judgements and assumptions about something before blurting out words you can’t take back

Never trust products that are perpetually on sale, the companies are hiding the real quality of their products by manipulating/inflating the price.

Buyer beware indeed
