Wait! I don't mean it to be literal. The moderators abandoned it, but you can still post.
"Drag Race Philippines" is getting an "Vs. the World" version of the series, "Slaysian Royale." Cast members were announced Wednesday, along with the host.
Mods are asleep, but you can still post here.
As global trade tensions intensify and tariffs loom, the Philippines finds itself caught between its two largest economic partners — the U.S. and China.
For me, it's SB19 and Until Then.
SB19 learned what they could from the Korean system and took its own Filipino-based identity. They're an example of what Filipinos can do if they study and learn the best parts of foreigners and apply what is sensible to our needs. Frankly, they're more talented than BTS because SB19 can release a larger variety of music.
The storytelling in Until Then (on hold because I don't have time) is impressive up to where I am now (midway? slightly into the second half?) and has a similar polish and quality as visual novels like Steins;Gate and Clannad. The VN format fits perfectly in a Filipino context because Filipinos can create great stories and VNs are not capital-intensive to release.
At least ganun ako dati, and I struggle on it from time to time.
Madalas na sabihin na Filipinos have an inferiority complex. Rather, we tend to have simultaneous superiority and inferiority complexes. Or to rephrase, we tend to see ourselves or the country as main characters.
The inferiority complex is reality shattering the initial feelings of superiority or exceptionalism. Napaisip na ako, why are we so engrossed with comparing ourselves with our geographic neighbors? Bakit gutom tayo sa validation?
May point ang looking outside the country to find what needs to be improved within. Ang problema lang, naliligaw ang rason kung bakit gusto natin umasenso ang Pilipinas. I admire the drive, kaso lang, madalas, gusto lang natin na gumanda ang Pilipinas para lang masabi unironically "Pilipinas Numbawan!".
To me, eto ang obvious na reason kung bakit tayo obsessed na ikumpara sarili natin sa iba.
Tama nga na instead, we should compare us to ourselves in the past. Are we better than our past selves? Dapat, gusto natin umunlad ang Pilipinas kasi gusto natin sumaya ang buhay ng kapwa Pilipino.
China has sanctioned a former Filipino lawmaker, Francis Tolentino, who sponsored legislation that marks out the Philippines’ territorial claims in the disputed South China Sea.

The parts are beefy. I may want to experiment on building a local LLM someday.
Only if there's a legal way to do it, which is at this point, a constitutional amendment. The civil war made it clear secession is not an option.
Starting from a mid-90s (Pentium 2 original CPU) PC case, I plan to build a PC designed for high-quality BD/ripped 4K BD playback, paired with an HDR monitor.
What pointers need to be considered?
The author, Aki Hamaji, may have just referred to the Hanshin Tigers-Yomiuri Giants AND the Jacksonville Jaguars-Tennessee Titans rivalries.
My profession is in programming. Initially, my dad tried to teach me Javascript. It was a struggle and couldn't get it.
A few years later, I took up computer science in college and that's where it all clicked: I can imagine the end result. It's a matter of being curious and finding (or I daresay... hacking) my way to that conclusion. Programming languages have a very funny way of allowing you to do just that. In studying computer science, I discovered the art of engineering all kinds of software-based solutions.
Because my way of solving problems is more deductive than inductive, I have to consciously build foundational knowledge and routines. Constant learning and insatiable curiosity is required for me to identify when my hunches are wrong and discard them accordingly.
Episode Three of Mappa Flex: the Animation. Utterly amazing that they pull off movie-quality visuals so far. Would be a shame if they encounter production issues (knowing Mappa, it's a possibility)
Ga-go, ga-go
Knowing Tagalog, I metaphorically spat my drink hearing that 💀
Thousands of U.S. and Filipino troops launched joint exercises as Taiwan detected a record 153 Chinese military aircraft around the self-ruled island.
My birthday is September 10. September 11 2001 happened. While I'm not directly affected, it messed me up mentally because I thought I had something to do with it. It didn't help that the year after, I saw Space Shuttle Columbia on the launch pad in what would be its final mission.
I saw the 3-episode premiere. The sexual assault scenes are limited to that episode. You should be fine.
I look like I'm straight out of school, sometimes people explain things to me like I know nothing.
Not that I think they're automatically malicious. Sometimes I find myself in the "explaining" position because I think not explaining makes me sound I'm cooped in an ivory tower.

My headcanon is that Aoi's dad worked with Jotaro at some point.
Would be a great chance to highlight their Indian-language dub staff.
Increasingly common Hoopla W.
Kanopy also has a good selection. They've got a few Sentai stuff and was surprised when I saw Amagi there of all things.
Interesting. It's both the feeling and the act for me.
The Philippine coast guard accused its Chinese counterpart of interfering with the evacuation of a sick crew member, even after they were informed of the operation's medical nature.
MCR won Boiler Room’s grant, earning them an opportunity to mount a showcase that focuses on underrepresented genres like budots
"Voltes V: Legacy: The Cinematic Experience" is officially heading to Japan!
I got my first 5G-capable phone noong Dec 2023, right before I visited PH from a sizeable city sa US. Mas nauna ko pang maranasan ang 5G sa Manila kesa dun sa local area ko.
internet is relatively fast and affordable
Words I never thought would go together when pertaining to the Philippines lol. Not that I'm complaining, it has no downside.
