I genuinely can’t tell if the MAGA commenters on my Insta are Artificial Intelligence or Actual Stupidity.

What a joy-filled day at the Director’s Guild celebrating 25 years of the Asian American Committee! So grateful for the DGA’s commitment to diversity, equity & inclusion—it’s what makes moments like this possible. And yes… I wore that shirt. You can grab one in my shop if you feel like repping too!

This has been a rough few weeks for Filipinos. RIP to an icon of Filipino cinema, Ricky Davao. I’m deeply grateful to have met him. He was a brilliant actor and director, and someone who took the time share heartfelt stories with me about working with my late uncle, Lino Brocka.

I guess it’s only blasphemy if a drag queen does it.

Celebrate AAPI Month in Style! This Pinoy Storyteller shirt is for my fellow Filipino creatives—whether you’re behind the camera or lighting up the screen.

Inspired by my wild ride filming Love & Lockdown in the Philippines, literally lying on the floor of a Jeepney to stay out of frame.

The best part of making your own T-shirts is wearing them! I created this in honor of the drag artists who’ve been instrumental in shaping who I am. I dabbled in drag in my teens but was not good & it was so expensive. My name was Fellatia. She became a character on Rick & Steve. brocka.dashery.com

I love funky T-shirts! Whenever I travel, it’s the one thing I hunt for. Not the airport or gas station shirts— something offbeat, unique, made by a local designer. A piece of a place to remember, to spark a conversation, to make someone smile.

2012. The first time I met Jiggly Caliente, I was such a fanboy. She brought so much joy into this world. Rest in peace, Bianca. 🩷🏳️‍⚧️🇵🇭

I got a sneak peak of new music videos from both @ryancassata and @tomgoss tonight at their premiere party. They also performed for us! Tom’s “Bear Soup” is so much fun. Ryan really knocked it out of the park with his catchy song “I Feel Like Throwing Up.”

It’s a pink blossom and gray skies kind of day.

I’m thinking back to this incredible screening of Lino Brocka’s Bona at the Academy Museum a few months ago. Watching Nora Aunor’s nuanced performance on a huge screen was exhilarating. It was easy to see how millions could look into her eyes and instantly see themselves. Rest in Peace Nora Aunor.

Maybe he thought it was the economy.
JD Vance is such an embarrassment.
Look at him trying to hold up the trophy of The Ohio State championship football team.
He fucking broke it!

What an embarrassment!!
