THREE’S A CROWD 🌀

@dost_pagasa is now monitoring three weather disturbances again around the Philippine area of responsibility, Saturday afternoon.

The remnant low pressure area of #NenengPH re-developed into a tropical depression, with international name Gaenari.

[Ariel Rojas @arielrojasPH]

The remnant low pressure area of #NenengPH has a medium chance of re-development in the next 24 hours, according to @dost_pagasa.

Even if it re-develops, it may remain confined in the northern part of the Philippine Sea, far from the Philippine landmass.

It’s wild how a largely agricultural country is consistently failing its farmers while being aggressive in shady investments like AI data centers

Coworker: “Bakit may isda sa mesa?”
Ako: “Bagong staff.”
Coworker: “Anong position?”
Ako: “Emotional support.” 😭🐟

POV: Yung trabaho stressful na, kaya nag-hire na lang ako ng isda para may kasama ako to survive. 😭

So anong point ng senate hearing kung hindi naman pala ititigil ang operasyon? Tangina talaga ng mga gagong gahaman puro investment lang ang bukambibig. Investment para kanino? Clearly hindi para sa mga aeta o sa mga lokal na taga tarlac!
