So because everyone on Twitter is thinking of leaving for Mastodon, this tweet from 2017 is now quite prescient.

Perhaps I should start using it again? 🤔 Do follow me if you’re there!

(Oh how I love being an early adopter; I got my name as a username!)

So I'm finally on Mastodon (and yes, I know it's by @mastodonmusic; yay nerdy metalheads!). Feel free to follow! 😂 https://t.co/NQbGLh8S3q

@pornstargrimes @unpococansad0_ @Alejandro_SocEU I applied for citizenship as a Filipino citizen, not as a U.S. one.

[Josh Lim @akiestar]

@pornstargrimes @unpococansad0_ @Alejandro_SocEU It can also be when I get Spanish citizenship after living in the country and integrating, which I will get this June.

[Josh Lim @akiestar]

@unpococansad0_ @Alejandro_SocEU Lo tendré a partir de este junio cuando jure tras vivir en España desde 2021. (Soy filipino y tengo la oportunidad de solicitar la nacionalidad española siendo residente por dos años en vez de 10.)

Me dará mucho orgullo participar en la vida política de nuestro país.

You know who was arrested in the Senate but never tried to run away?

That’s the aura of someone who knows she’s not guilty.

Hey @ABSCBNNews, @gmanews and other Philippine news outlets: if you'll be talking about Eurovision or Eurovision Asia, do reach out.

As the founder of the Philippines' largest Eurovision group on Facebook, we have PLENTY to say about what will happen in Bangkok.

[Josh Lim @akiestar]

@heyrow To be fair, parts of Asia have strong public broadcasters. But it's money and the paradigm. In most parts of Asia "public" broadcasting is still treated as propaganda, not as entertainment.

Same mindset led @ABU_HQ to not lend "Asiavision" to this contest when ideally, it should

[Josh Lim @akiestar]

Hey @ABU_HQ, please let @EBU_HQ use the name "Asiavision" for this.

The ABU TV and Radio Song Festivals were fun, but a full Eurovision-style contest is better. And I think a joint ABU-EBU production would be amazing!

[Josh Lim @akiestar]

@RichHeydarian And they say the Philippines is poor and can’t punch above its weight. 😒

[ricci @ricci_richy]

That was the time when our Department of Tourism is promoting the Philippines - its amazing tourist spots, diverse culture, and the warmth and friendliness of the Filipinos.

NOW, the DOT is promoting its Secretary. What a FIASCO!

Let me be clear, fellow Europeans.
You can disagree with Sanchez and find his policies wrong or damaging.
But Sanchez is Spanish. He is European.
When foreigners, especially an American like Elon Musk, insult an elected European leader, it is a European duty to push back.

@macredblue @jesusfalcis Hi, if you see anything on Wikipedia that hints to information being rewritten, please let me or @WikiSocPH know.

DDS flooding ICC pages and calling them bayaran is so embarrassing 😭😭😭😭

[Josh Lim @akiestar]

Hola @RAEinforma, ¿es verdad que en español se pronuncia con acento en la penultima la palabra "crisantemo"? En inglés se pronuncia con acento en la segunda sílaba (es decir, como "crisántemo") pero es interesante saber más sobre cómo se ha cambiado en español. #dudaRAE

[Maria @lagrima75]

Siempre igual: te sueltan que la deuda pública no para de crecer o que los inmigrantes cobran pagas. Les enseñas datos oficiales y te dicen que mienten. Les pides los suyos y te mandan un vídeo de Willy Tolerdo, un Photoshop mal hecho y un enlace de OKDiario.
¡Santa paciencia!.

For the first time, the Philippines marched alongside 22 other countries at the Cabalgata de la #Hispanidad in Madrid last Sunday.

What a sight to see 🇵🇭 march and showcase our best. ¡Viva Filipinas y nuestra herencia hispana!

[Josh Lim @akiestar]

🇵🇭 has actually been a part of Madrid’s Hispanidad since 2022, but it was only this year (after I filed a complaint last year) that we finally joined the parade, celebrating the rich cultural heritage of the world’s Spanish-speaking countries.

May we continue to build and grow!

[Josh Lim @akiestar]

¡Por primera vez 🇵🇭 se desfiló en la Cabalgata de la #Hispanidad2025 de Madrid!

Muchísimas gracias a @Hispanidad2025 y @ComunidadMadrid por responder con buena fe a mi queja sobre la exclusión de 🇵🇭 de la Hispanidad el año pasado, ¡y por la cálida bienvenida a mi querida país!
