So my male coworker, who is both misogynistic and homophobic, was saying, “If God didn’t want women to cook, he wouldn’t have put eggs and milk in their body.” And my female coworker replied, “If God didn’t want men to make sweet gay love, he wouldn’t have put their prostates in the booty hole.” .....I chuckled.
Why are we bending over backwards, destroying our institutions, disrupting the entire country just to protect Bato who called the death of a 4yr old “shit happens”? Di pa ba sapat na pina sweldo yan habang awol? Utang na loob ipadampot nyo na lang nang natatapos na.
today, we remember all the victims of the bloody war on drugs and how the government failed to give them even an ounce of grace or due process. today, we witness lawmakers resist and disrespect the law to protect one of the main orchestrators of human rights violations during duterte’s regime.

This is a result of the Senate as an institution being used to a) obstruct justice in the case of Bato Dela Rosa, and b) evade accountability in the case of Sara Duterte.
Wala silang pakialam sa Saligang Batas basta makatakas lamang sila. Mga kawatan!
One thing is clear tonight: the Duterte-allied Senate bloc is willing to plunge the institution into chaos and to weaponise fear, all to shield one of their own from accountability.
All this chaos.
Just to protect the Dutertes and their allies.

Billions of pesos daw mawawala kapag tinanggal ang excise tax, hindi ko nagwo-worry.
Trillion nga ang nawawala at ninakaw sa flood control pero buhay pa naman tayo.
If you see a propagandist telling you that the impeachment is a waste of time amidst oil price hikes struggles, tell them this: at least TWO BILLION pesos is alleged to have passed thru the Dutertes. That’s roughly 69,000 years worth of monthly income for the average Filipino family. Corruption, plunder, and betrayal of public trust is a crisis.
