  1. Kahit matapos pa ang buong mundo, wala ng solusyon sa trapik sa Metro Manila kundi ang gibain lahat ng estalishment sa paligid ng EDSA. Sacrifice a few bldgs to be demolished for the greater good. At least i-widen ang both sides ng EDSA to at least 5 more lanes. Then regulate all households car ownership to at least 2 only. No car garage/parking inside your house, no issuance of OR CR. Period!
  2. Stop growing your mustache and shave it for Christ sake. For sure Mariel don't like it either. 😜🤑😜🤑😜🤑
  3. Social media can negatively impact our overall wellbeing by fueling anxiety, depression, loneliness and FOMO (fear or missing out). These issues are especially prevalent in teens and young adults. Social media is here to stay and will continue to evolve and become more invasive.
  4. Try singapore's approach. Get gov't permit before you can own a car. And put a toll on high traffic areas. Prices should fluctuate based on intensity of traffic. It's like your paying for contributing to traffic. You can't own a car unless you have your own car garage and this should one of the requirements before getting a registration with LTO and LTFRB.
  5. The Ugly Origins of America's Involvement in the Philippines - JSTOR Daily The American use of torture, then called the “water cure,” in the Philippines during the war of 1899-1902 shocked some Americans of the day. By: Bruce Willis May 10, 2017 Rodrigo Duterte, the President of the Philippines, has been invited to the United States, a country intimately connected with the Philippine archipelago since the Spanish-American War. When America defeated Spain in 1898, Filipinos thought three centuries of colonialism were over. They declared the birth of a republic, wrote a constitution, and formed a government under the leadership of Emilio Aguinaldo. But by the terms of the Treaty of Paris, which ended the war, America took possession of the over 7,600 islands that make up the Philippines by paying Spain $20 million for them. Perhaps unsurprisingly, many Filipinos were outraged. The Philippine-American war that followed from 1899-1902 is considered by many historians to be the first counterinsurgency fought by the U.S. The war featured guerrilla warfare by the Filipinos and, on the American side, “concentration zones,” scorched earth tactics, retaliation, and torture. The war was intensely criticized in the U.S. by anti-imperialists like Mark Twain and Democratic Party leader William Jennings Bryan, who were the most notable critics of the war and the way it was fought. Military dissenters were also prominent critics. Frank Schumacher details the debate over the use of torture by American forces in the Philippines. In the “water cure” a prisoner’s mouth and nose were flooded with torrents of water from tanks funneled through syringes. Today we call this waterboarding. In the face of all the controversy, the Roosevelt administration declared victory in 1902. 4,200 U.S. soldiers and 20,000 Filipino soldiers were dead. Civilian casualties have been estimated from 250,000-750,000. The White House valorized U.S. troops, but it was the U.S. military’s own who begged to differ with the White House. The Commanding General of the U.S. Army’s report found that the American use of torture was systemic and the result of a breakdown of moral order. General Miles wrote “nothing could be more detrimental to the military service of the United States, or more discreditable to American arms, than the commission, or in the slightest degree the justification of such acts which belong to a different age and civilization than our own.” The White House tried to discredit Miles’s report by saying it was misleading and driven by political ambition. “Despite rigid military censorship, political inertia, and government opposition,” dissenters got a Congressional investigation. General Order 100 would go on to prohibit torture, at least officially. Though few were punished for their atrocities in the Philippines, the resulting war crimes case law would help lay down “significant legal signposts for the future prosecution of violation of the laws of war.” Schumacher thinks historical amnesia, a patriotic eagerness to see the best in “our boys,” and “beliefs in the nation’s exceptional moral superiority” account for the general forgetting of this dirty war. For the Philippines, however, which were released from US sovereignty in 1946, the war was foundational to the formation of their nation.
  6. Convicted plunderers should be forced to wear a tshirt with "I AM A CONVICTED PLUNDERER AND I AM ASHAMED OF MYSELF" printed in the front and back whenever they go in public places.
  7. Lotto is a fucking scam, lol. They're not even particularly good at hiding it. Just like any other gambling in our fcuked up CUNTry 😜😜😜
  8. Worst - Corykong and Abnoynoying Best - None yet. Everyone is a mediocre President that can't do anything to curb corruption.
  9. Dear Baby M Dayunyor. Keep doing what you love to do. ☺️
  10. Annulment or Divorce in PH is nothing. Maghihiwalay at maghihiwalay pa din naman kung gusto nila and no law can prevent that. Gaya ng karamihan sa batas ng Pinas na para sa mayayaman lang, yang Annulment at Divorce para lang din sa mayaman dahil sila lang naman gagamit dyan para idaan sa korte at legal ang hiwalayan. Sa tingin nyo ba masosolve nyan ang problema ng mahihirap na naghihiwalay? Malaking HINDI ang sagot.
