We are writers.
We are storytellers.
Today, we reclaim our voice.

The anti-terror bill passed and the biggest TV network in the country was shut down (potentially scaring other news outlets of getting on the bad side of certain powerful people) at a time when most citizens are fearful of gathering and coming together due to a pandemic... hmm...

Today, voices have been silenced and freedom has been dealt a near-fatal blow. My heart goes out to my ABS-CBN friends who have been affected by what our government has chosen to do today.

Shouting "Kobe!" when shooting a crumpled-up piece of paper into a trash bin five feet away will never feel the same again. ☹️

I like you, world. Please don't end yet.

Minsan talaga terible tayong mga Pinoy. Kung ito pa lang na hindi tayo disiplinadong magbulsa sandali ng kapirasong papel hanggang may wastong mapagtatapunan, wag na tayong umasang aasenso ang bansa natin.

Daming nagtatanong kung anong ginawa ko't pumayat ako (ng kaunti).

Nagpaka-stress sa trabaho. Yun ang ginawa ko. Effective, promise.

There are some people who can have a lasting impact on people without even trying or knowing that they did.

Or maybe we're all like that to someone else. That's a nice thought.

Hindsight is 20/20. Maybe not a coincidence. Recent natural events make me feel like this will be the year we, as humans, will reap what we sowed in a bigger way than ever before.

As of 7:30 pm, Phivolcs raised the Taal Volcano eruption from Alert Level 3 to Alert Level 4 (hazardous eruption imminent).

Best be prepared. Read here: https://t.co/WndCahaHfD

Carole & Tuesday has some pretty dope songs. Love the anime series too. Makes me want to write a musical. Hmm...

It's true that home is where the heart is, but I also believe that home is where the fart is. Safe umutot, walang judgment.

I wrote about the horror movie #Sunod, just in time for almost every mall to remove it from their cinemas & for microcinemas to pick it up. It's a shame because this is one of my favorites for MMFF 2019, and it deserves a bigger audience.

I. HATE. PACKING. #vacationproblems

[Anton Santamaria @anton_c_santa]

Had a day alone. Explored Tokyo on my own. Beautiful city, but the loneliness is overwhelming. Sad faces all around.

So, @Jollibee is phasing out the Champ. 2020 is already on a downward spiral. #goodbyejollibeechamp 😭

[Anton Santamaria @anton_c_santa]

Shit. Already missed a day. I knew this would happen. Umm... I guess this will count. Saw a lot of lights today. None of them beamed me up. Disappointed. Bye.

[Anton Santamaria @anton_c_santa]

Japanese Wolf. Extinct since 1905. Sad. I love wolves. I'm gonna make it my mission to write one into one of my screenplays, even if it's just mentioned in a line of dialogue.

Is there a place where I can get my whole body nibbled on by small fish? I want them to do to my entire being what they do to my feet: eat what's dead and make me new. #fishtherapy #NewMe2020
