Supported by the @pulitzercenter, I wrote about the SOGIE Bill and the communities for and against it online.

Here's the first of two reports:

Si Piolo Pascual daw po nanonood:

VP Leni: Oh my God, si Piolo Pascual nanonood (kilig)…

Bigla ako na-conscious

A Cebu court had just dropped anti-terrorism financing charges against CERNET, one of several NGOs and individuals charged under this law in a seeming attempt by the PH to exit the grey list, at the cost of human rights.

Mga gen z po ba sila sa senado kasi sabi ni sen robin dati sila daw po yung weak at iyakin

[raffy magno @raffymagno]

Praying for all the journalists risking their lives tonight just so the public can see the truth of what’s happening in the Senate.

There is no substitute for a free press. No alternative to people willing to stand in the middle of chaos so the country can witness the truth in real time.

Dumping your bad energy on the group then making everyone guess why you’re acting out is so draining. If the vibes are off, stay home.

[Don Kevin Hapal @donkevinhapal]

Hay

Stuck here after your update @PICKUPCOFFEEPH

I was transferring that money for a reason so ang frustrating lang na pwede ka nila holdapin ng ganito. Tapos after i-investigate, ibabalik lang ng parang wa lang. Nevermind the hassle. Patience and understanding daw. I hate this.

[Don Kevin Hapal @donkevinhapal]

Ang frustrating lang kasi nagtransfer ako ng pera from @TalktoBPI to @unionbankph via Instapay... hindi pumasok pero nabawas sa balance. Both banks can't tell me what happened. IInvestigate pa for up to 10 days. So ano pang silbi na nagbayad ako ng Instapay kung ihohold lang din?

[Don Kevin Hapal @donkevinhapal]

Remember the pork barrel scam? Senators Revilla, Estrada, and Villanueva were all at the center of it but:
▶️ Revilla was acquitted of plunder.
▶️ Estrada was acquitted of plunder.
▶️ Villanueva's graft case is still pending.

​And we keep voting then back.

[Don Kevin Hapal @donkevinhapal]

The Philippine Political Cycle:
1. ​Face massive corruption charges.
​2. Get cleared on a technicality or acquitted after years.
3. ​Win the next election.
4. ​Face NEW corruption charges.
5. ​Repeat.

When will we ever learn? #EnoughIsEnough

Filipino Nobel Laureate @mariaressa cites 🇵🇭legacy as 🇺🇳founding member as she makes compelling call at #UNGA80 for global leaders to step up accountability to address disinformation in digital space. To protect freedom, integrity of info is to protect democracy &modern societies

@PLDT_Cares Lol clearly a bot. I can't DM you. Send me a message.

[Don Kevin Hapal @donkevinhapal]

Posting here because all I get are bots from the @pldt hotline. Applied for their fiber internet and paid installation fees already. Got a message that their will come fo install TODAY. Had to ask work if I could stay home today for this. Pero wala ring dumating.
