INC RALLY FALLOUT

Public utility vehicle operators who allegedly skipped their regular routes to join activities linked to the Iglesia Ni Cristo rally are now facing scrutiny.

The LTFRB on Wednesday, July 1, has ordered 34 operators of buses and UV Express units to explain why their franchises should not be suspended or canceled after commuters were reportedly left without service. A hearing is scheduled for July 9.

“The Department of Transportation, through the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board, has issued a show cause order to 34 operators of public utility vehicles (PUVs) that did not ply their routes and were instead seen at the rally sites in Quezon City,” LTFRB said.

You're "just not that into politics?" Your boss is. Your landlord is. Your insurance company is. And every day they use their political power to keep your pay low, raise your rent, and deny you coverage.
It’s time to get into politics.

Another sad news about our wildlife.

Today, an elephant calf was found dead after being hit by a car in Johor. The elephant mother then stayed & watched helplessly over her dead calf. Just last year, we witnessed the same heartbreaking incident.

I would like to remind everyone that all the digital ID bills are SUPPORTED by tech giants like meta and google because their data selling scheme is rapidly becoming worthless thanks to AI and bots (a problem they created).

There are over 500,000 peer reviewed studies/papers on SARSCO-V2 Covid-19…and not a single one says it’s a good idea to catch it over and over and over again.

ill write an essay about this someday. the misogyny in No Longer Human is always talked about but hardly analyzed as a literary theme.

Oba Yōzō is an excellent case study of how self-proclaimed “misanthrophic” men ironically perpetuate their own isolation by being sexist. (+)

I DO NOT think people understand that global warming doesn’t mean “no cold weather ever.” It means a warming planet destabilizes weather patterns, causing more extreme weather. This has been explained for decades and people still don’t get it.

This is the most jaw-dropping part of Princeton/BP scandal:

that the scientists funded by BP believed that their job "was to invent a future where the fossil fuel industries have not disappeared yet climate change is being forcefully addressed, and this is still our job."

Fundamental global changes will happen in our lifetime or we will all die of the climate apocalypse. Those are our options. Don’t listen to any ignorant fuck that implies otherwise, most likely paid by the same sadistic billionaires catalyzing it. Those are our true stakes.

The "problem" is that electricity has become too cheap—"too cheap to meter" as they used to say of nuclear power. This may be a problem for investors, but a socialist should welcome this, no?

Your utility company should be investigated if it talks about “record profits” during an affordability crisis. Di pwedeng hirap kang magbayad ng bills mo habang sila ang sasaya.

As a teacher in instructional design, yung font and print ng materials nila ang giveaway na hindi ito organic na protesta. An organic protest would have various, ofentimes conflicting colors, font types, font sizes, etc (see EDSA 1 and 2 protests).

Halatang manufactured ito.

Alarming how common some variation of this sentiment is now - that misogyny is a woman’s fault if she chooses to date men, or finds herself dating men who are misogynists, as if their misogyny is so innate they cannot really be held responsible for it. This is itself misogynistic

Tigilan nga ako sa pag-frame kay Markubeta as "hero" ng flood control scandal when all he did was to lawyer for the Discayas.

Reminder lang, yung expose ni Mayor Vico against the Discayas ang nagbukas ng mga pinto at bintana para sa mga ito.

INC members gather infront of the Virgin Mary, not praying i suppose? And for what, to protect a corrupt senator?

Now they "own" the place they once despised, near an image of the virgin they don't believe in. What a bunch of gullible, brainless hypocrites.

Sino may dinuguan?

Is DENR even a functioning agency at this point?
