As a Marikeño living in a valley city, I have a direct stake in this—Marikina City and Lower Antipolo constantly flood thanks to relentless quarrying near Masungi. If the DENR becomes the enemy of Metro Manila’s last green corridor, then it is up to us to stand up & #SaveMasungi!

I have achieved desirelessness even if I am still asking for my daily bread and forgiveness up to now.

Suffering made me realise that I must not crave what they are having.

Discernment informs me what I really need.

I had experienced what it's like to be in the public eye, had famous clients, had been bashed, and had lost people whom I adored.

I have the freedom to do everything I want while all of them are trapped in public scrutiny and temporary adoration.

As you can see, we have our own challenging issues here. Take, for example, the political dynasties that run rampant in the Philippines. Despite being prohibited by the Constitution, they remain unchecked due to the absence of an enabling law to enforce the restriction.

No. The only chance to correct anyone and present facts is right in front of them. Having a discussion with them. Listen to the show I did with them.
It seems like your conclusion is that we live a post-truth world and facts don’t matter. Now what? Do we just have to accept such shittiness? And if so, how can we possibly do good in the world?

I have noticed that I always get what I want when I practice detachment, impartiality and nonchalance.

It may not be true to you, them and others but it's working for me.

I'll summarize the whole podcast genre:

" If you are entertaining, people will listen to you and buy what you are selling. Including politics "

They will not check your background, your education or fact check you

It's a podcast. They are trying to kill time. Entertainment sells.
This is the SEMINAL POLITICAL PODCAST of 2025. Podcasts like this are EXACTLY how young men will consume and understand politics.

Dem strategists should study every single second of it and recognize this is their new reality for reaching young men. Guaranteed.

If you still have the energy, move forward.

If you don't, enjoy wherever you are.

When someone shares their experience, I savor it so much that I am saving so much money to buy the things more important to me while their content is being monetized and they get to be more famous too.

It's a win-win situation after all.

Practicality is making things available.

For me, it's practical to do the things you love so that you can do more & rewarded better.

For others, it's practical to do what they hate for they will do it less & rewarded much.

What may be available to you may not be available to me & the others.

What I know is redemption is for everyone, whether we like it or not.

If you are not agreeing on somebody's redemption, you need to confront your own.

Bonus fact: 'grawlix' is the word for a series of typographical symbols (such as $#!%) used in text as a replacement for profanity.

It was coined by the American cartoonist Mort Walker for his comic strip "Beetle Bailey."

Do not expect a "dance class" when you are expected to teach "dancing for nondancers".

Exactly.

Our relationship with their work is NOT a relationship with them, no matter how good or even how confessional it is. The stuff people put out for public consumption can only tell you so much.

I don’t think that coming up with lists of “good” authors helps anyone. on a very basic level: you have no way of knowing if that’s true about anyone.

Dear Modern Humans,

You thought you were so much smarter than people from the Middle Ages. But you're not.

Why do you think the dark ages lasted so long? It was because of greedy, insane despots who crushed progress and dangerous thoughts.

It won't end until you rise up and overthrow them all.
