Yes. Actually wala namang issue kung mahigpit ang screening sa blood donation. It's for safety - no questions about that.

Ang problema talaga ay ang stigma at bias towards M2M.

[Amber 🦋 @geeyanii]

Na para bang mga M2M lang ang may risk sa HIV. Have you seen the latest data from DOH mismo, pataas din naman ang prevalence ng HIV and other STDs among cishets. So bakit walang ganong restrictions sa kanila?

Palace Press Officer Claire Castro calls out Senator Alan Peter Cayetano for saying that President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. rejected his P10,000 cash aid proposal.
Castro says the lawmaker first floated the idea in 2021, before the current administration.

“Lumalabas na laging siya ang walang sala…. Naninisi siya ng iba… ‘Wag niyang ipahid sa ibang tao. Akuin niya mismo ang kaniyang kakulangan,” Castro adds.

Your phone suddenly rings in the middle of an important meeting.

The number is unfamiliar.

You excuse yourself, step out of the room, and answer anyway because, these days, an unknown caller usually means one of two things: an emergency—or bad news.

Instead, a cheerful voice greets you.

“Good afternoon, sir! We’d like to offer you our newest credit card…”

You hang up, annoyed.

It wasn’t just an interruption. It hijacked your attention, pulled you away from work, and made you leave a room full of people for something that could have been a text—or better yet, not a call at all.

If you’ve ever felt irritated by an unexpected phone call, you’re far from alone.

In the age of instant messaging, surprise calls are increasingly seen as intrusive because they demand immediate attention without first asking whether the other person is available. Modern communication has shifted toward respecting people’s time, schedules, and personal boundaries. Text messages let recipients respond when they’re free. Phone calls don’t.

TEXT FIRST, CALL LATER

The biggest rule of modern phone etiquette is surprisingly simple: text before you call.

A quick message—“Are you free for a five-minute call?”—takes only seconds to send but gives the other person the chance to say yes, ask you to call later, or simply answer your concern through chat.

Even better, tell them what the call is about. Knowing the topic allows the recipient to prepare, gather information, or decide whether a phone conversation is even necessary.

DON’T ASSUME “ONLINE” MEANS AVAILABLE

Messenger, Viber, and WhatsApp have made calling easier than ever—but not necessarily more welcome.

Seeing someone online doesn’t mean they’re free. They could be working, studying, commuting, or simply replying to messages while doing something else.

An unannounced voice call can already feel disruptive.

A surprise video call is even worse.

Unlike voice calls, video demands that someone be camera-ready, properly dressed, and comfortable showing their surroundings. Launching one without warning is widely considered a breach of privacy.

WHEN A CALL IS THE RIGHT CHOICE

Of course, not everything can be settled over chat.

Complex discussions, urgent decisions, emotional conversations, or genuine emergencies are often better handled through a phone call.

But even then, courtesy matters.

Keep conversations concise. If a call starts stretching beyond 10 or 15 minutes, ask whether the other person still has time to continue.

If you’re calling unexpectedly because of an emergency, acknowledge it immediately.

“Sorry to call out of the blue, but this is urgent.”

That single sentence tells the recipient why normal etiquette had to be set aside.

THE BIGGEST DON’TS

Modern phone etiquette also comes with a growing list of behaviors people increasingly find inconsiderate.

Don’t repeatedly call someone who doesn’t answer unless it’s truly an emergency. One missed call followed by a text is usually enough.

Don’t use speakerphone in public places where everyone else is forced to listen to your private conversation.

Don’t call from noisy environments where the other person has to struggle just to understand you.

And perhaps most importantly, don’t assume that because you have someone’s number, you have unrestricted access to their attention.

RESPECT IS THE NEW ETIQUETTE

Technology has made reaching people easier than ever.

Ironically, that convenience has made respect even more important.

A simple text before calling isn’t about being overly formal. It’s an acknowledgment that everyone has meetings, families, deadlines, errands, and moments when they simply don’t want to talk.

Good phone etiquette isn’t measured by how quickly you can reach someone.

It’s measured by whether you respect their time enough to ask first.

Sleep well, sleep well, children of this world...
Fear neither the dark nor the deathly stillness,
For the divine has promised you unconditional love.

Awaken, awaken, O storm with neither root nor source!
If blessings are so generous, so selfless,
Then why has mercy never reached the winter?

Sa bukas na pakikipag-usap, mas napagtitibay natin ang pagkakaisa sa loob ng Senado.

Nakipagpulong tayo sa mga empleyado ng OSAA, Senate Secretary Rey Bantug Jr., at Sergeant-at-Arms Alfredo Sotto Corpuz upang tiyaking ligtas at maayos ang takbo ng ating institusyon.

Hindi matatawaran ang serbisyong ibinibigay nila araw-araw, kaya mahalagang makumusta at mapakinggan ang kanilang mga pangangailangan.

'MARY GRACE AT PIATTOS'

PANOORIN: Ibinahagi ni Poverty Alleviation Secretary Larry Gadon ang isang video kung saan ipinakita niya ang isang maletang ipinadala umano sa kanya.

Kapansin-pansin ang tila naging parinig nito kay Vice President Sara Duterte matapos ilantad na ang laman ng maleta ay isang paperbag mula sa Mary Grace at tsitsiryang Piattos.
