A powerful earthquake has once again shook parts of Central and Southern Philippines today. A Magnitude 7.6 earthquake (#linog) and threat of #tsunami sparked fear among residents. But for the Philippines, such events are far from uncommon.
Crisscrossed by active faults and bordered by major tectonic trenches, the country is among the most earthquake-prone regions on Earth. PHIVOLCS reports that the Philippines experiences around 20 tremors each day, though most are too weak to be felt. History, however, reminds us that devastating quakes have struck many times before.
Data from the U.S. Geological Survey (1975–2024) show that nearly every region—from Northern Luzon to BARMM—has recorded seismic activity, with Palawan standing out as one of the few areas that remain relatively quiet.
It’s crucial to remember that earthquakes rarely cause death directly; it’s the aftermath—collapsed buildings, landslides, tsunamis, fires, and floods—that endanger lives. Awareness, preparedness, and resilient infrastructure remain our best defenses.

In most countries, Big Brother stayed true to its Orwellian roots: cold, omnipresent, slightly terrifying—a symbol of control and surveillance.
Except in one place. The Philippines.

A true bloom knows how to respect and be inclusive. Don't consider yourself a bloom if you can't include that in your vocabulary.
There were 6,000 of us earlier, pero sobrang smooth ng run and walang nangyaring kahit ano. Maraming salamat sa cooperation at we love you blooms🫶🏻
