i knew she would call out that shitty pnvf once the tourna was over.
inuna niyo lang ‘yang galit niyo sa kanya at ginamit ang pagkakataon para batikusin siya.
thank you, alyssa valdez, for speaking up for what is right and for choosing to fight for the country—no ifs, no buts.
hbd to my most favorite song I ever wrote. for some this is just a song about orange skies
for other people it’s a song about certain people they don’t see anymore which is, a very special sentiment.
I know a song cannot heal all the holes in ur hearts but I hope it gives a little bandaid for the few minutes hours u gave listening to this song.
luv u primarya line kuya :’)) 🍊
GADEZ-TINY 🇵🇭
Longtime rivals Ara Galang and Alyssa Valdez relish the opportunity to finally become teammates on the Philippine national team.
#OSOnTheSpot#AlasPilipinas#AVCWomensCup
11 years in the making.
Ara Galang and Alyssa Valdez in one team healed all my broken hopes for their potential that the LVPI took.
We could’ve transitioned from Valdez-Galang to Canino-Belen.
This is why we must unite against the PNVF.

No matter how much Philippine volleyball continues to grow and welcome new stars, Alyssa Valdez will always hold a special place in our hearts. As volleyball fans, we'll always be grateful for her contribution to the sport and the legacy that continues to inspire generations.
Wishing defeat, injury, or humiliation on fellow Filipinos whose only collective desire is to represent our nation with integrity is pure, unadulterated evil. Anyone harboring that kind of spite in their heart has a moral compass that is broken and beyond redemption. Mga ipis.
dedma sa mga unnecessary takes na sobrang wala na rin sa hulog. i’m just so happy to see her play for the flag she’s always proud to represent. i may not agree to some things but i will not dare question her heart and passion for the sport and the national team. ily phenom ❤️

TODAY, WE CHEER FOR THE MINORITY 🥹🫶
SOLID BLOC 11: ALAN PETER CAYETANO RESIGN!
What happened today was a clear abandonment of responsibility, a dereliction of duty, and a blatant disregard of the rules that govern this institution, because the Senate cannot be made to stop working simply because its presiding officer refuses to lead.
Under Rule XIV, Sec. 41 of the Rules of the Senate, the Senate President may postpone the holding of the session AFTER consultation with the Majority Leader AND the Minority Leader. That rule was violated. This is not merely a procedural lapse—it is a direct violation of the Rules of the Senate and a serious disrespect for the institution and the Filipino people.
Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano SHOULD RESIGN as he has shown that he cannot function as the leader of the Senate.
JOINT STATEMENT ON THE SENATE MINORITY WALKOUT
We strongly condemn what appears to be an attempt to rush a major change in the Senate Rules, especially when several members of the minority still wanted to speak and raise serious questions on the floor.
Bakit kailangang madaliin? Bakit kailangang pigilan ang mga gustong magsalita? Bakit kailangang i-divide ang house kung marami pang senador ang nagtatanong tungkol sa proseso?
Minamadali ba ang rule change na ito dahil gusto nilang maka boto si Senator Bato? At ngayong may mga ulat na may mga majority senators na maaaring arestuhin?
We walked out because what happened on the floor looked less like orderly deliberation. The proposed rule change affects how senators may attend sessions, participate in proceedings and exercise their mandate through remote means, and such a measure should be opened to healthy public debate instead of being rushed by the tyranny of the majority.
We have always welcomed healthy discussions on the floor, but this should mean allowing all members to be heard, not forcing the chamber to move at the speed preferred by the majority.
At the time the motion was taken up, there was no duly constituted Committee on Rules and there was not even an elected Majority Leader who could properly guide a rules amendment through the regular process.
How could there have been any action or discussion before the Committee on Rules when no Committee on Rules has been organized to date?
With due respect, the answer that no Senate rule had been violated does not settle the matter, because the rules cannot be treated as a matter of convenience when the very process for amending them is under serious question.
The timing raises a question that the public deserves to hear debated openly. Kaya pinili naming tumayo at iwan ang majority sa plenary. Kaya kami nagdesisyon to question the quorum and call for adjournment.
If the proposal is truly defensible, then let it pass through the proper route.
We owe it to the people who voted for us to do our mandate. This is why we want more time to discuss this further.
