Large anti corruption protests in the Philippines are underway.

Triggered by deadly floods which exposed $2billion lost to corruption in flood defence projects some of which didn't exist at all.

And a familiar flag is being flown at the protests.

This Meta VR event is a clusterfuck. Half the demos aren’t working. They’re blaming the wifi. If these devices don’t work for the dude who’s learned to type 30 words per minute with his wrist what about the rest of us???

I can tell you this is how it is in Hong Kong now. At least 2 million ppl supported the 2019 protests and the pro-democracy movement in general. The govt knows it can't possibly jail all of them so they make high profile examples of some while "patriots" make threatening phone calls to others.
Look, they do not have the capacity or competence to do this at the scale they want you to fear they do, and your fear is precisely their greatest force multiplier. Everybody who is cowed into silence by their threats allows them a smaller pool to focus on.

Press freedom in Myanmar remains under severe threat, with journalists facing convictions, intimidation from both the junta and armed groups, and growing challenges in exile that further restrict independent reporting.

Very buried in the news cycle is the news that Thailand's constitutional court ruled to prevent Thai citizens directly selecting the members of the constitution drafting committee.

A ruling that very much protects existing structural power within Thailand & excludes the people. 😒

I always believed this work to be for the public good, and as such, it should be available to everybody, everywhere, for free. After months of turmoil, I can finally act on this belief.

Here is what some readers have to say about it:

"Blame" just opened the Swiss documentary festival Visions du Réel and will be one to watch!

"In a World Where Nothing Is True, Everything Becomes Possible".

And, yes, it's about the origin of the pandemic - or, rather, those wrongfully blamed for it.

There have been many lab leak articles in the media recently, but none had actual new data

In a new preprint, @zachhensel.bsky.social and I analyze early COVID-19 cases sequence data that have been overlooked so far.

These new data continue to point to a natural origin ▫️1/7

so... is there a market threshold that will actually get Republicans to step in? it's not 10%, it won't be 15%

what about 40%? 50%? is there any answer to this question at all? my instincts say there isn't, but we're really in unprecedented territory here

Protest while you can. Because if you don't, it will become much more difficult to do so -- and punishable in ways you may not be able to currently imagine -- if you don't.

Sincerely, from Hong Kong.
Spreads a message of hope that inspires action and resistance. Makes elites think twice about complying in advance. Builds a movement and a habit of taking to the streets that's crucial during a constitutional crisis or critical juncture. If protests weren't effective, dictators wouldn't ban them.

My husband and I run a game store and after all the tariff announcements, he decided to write out kind of a "behind the scenes" of how we spend and spill it out for people who don't understand. He's had so many reactions and shares I wanted to bring it here, too.

What's really strange is that you'll see posts by NYT op-ed columnists like @nickkristof.bsky.social speaking out against the Trump admin's defunding of science.

But NYT also keeps publishing poorly researched pieces hyping the lab leak conspiracy that seem tailor-written to justify that narrative.

Biggest takeaway from this is that a huge swathe of the American population refuses to believe that historical events can be driven by random losers with impulse control problems.
