    Got the little one a Happy Meal earlier and the toy they have now are Squishmallows. Reminded me of Philemon when I saw it. 😁

    TIL that “Ped Xing” means “pedestrian crossing”. I’ve always thought it was a translation of “pedestrian lane” for Chinese people BABAHABAHAHAHAHA

      Sabi sakin ng Tita ko dati, Chinese translation daw yun ng Pedro Gil. 💀

      Tapos yung mga signs na ganyan, mas prominent pa sa touristy areas (like Malate Church/Baywalk, Luneta, etc) 😂

    Lads and Lasses, the Shamisen, a Japanese three-stringed instrument derived from the Chinese Sanxian. A.K.A. the boss music maker.

    This instrument is SCIENTIFICALLY* guaranteed to make any activity (getting on a crowded Jeep/Bus/Train/Elevator) turn into an epic boss fight/one on one situation.

    Hell, even this Geisha looks bad-ass, and that’s not even a .GIF.

    Appropriate BGM .

    *Eh, not quite scientific.

    Napanood ko na Barbie from last weekend because my partner wants to watch it. I had low expectations going in the cinema, I came out impressed.

    Monday na naman, may typhoon na baka magparamdam na any moment, pinapapasok pa din kami. Lagi na lang ba ganito? I envy other companies who have adapted the WFH-On site hybrid style.

      I thought it was a joke when I saw some posts about it on Mastodon. Looks like Elon’s having a manic episode.

        If eventually babaguhin ng mga tao yung “follow us on twirrer” nila, sana magdagdag na sila ng links sa accounts nila sa Fediverse.

      Kakabasa ko lang kanina nito. Buti na lang umalis na ako sa Twitter, haha. Ma-backup na nga tweets ko sakaling Elon falls off his rocker completely.

    Ang daming magagaling na Japanese artist (manga at illustrations) at mga pose reference sa twitter pero nakakalungkot na pumapangit ang quality ng twitter.

    Quick insight pls: Partner has been searching my childhood friend’s FB account pagtulog ako or busy. Not just a one time thing (total 7 days).

    One time hindi kasi ako makatulog (insomnia attack) e tamad na ako maglaro kaya ginamit ko lang phone niya. Random lang nun plus ang hirap talaga matulog. Napansin ko lang na laging nasa recent search yung FB ng childhood friend ko. Curious me- nag-investigate ako (may tiwala naman ako e tsaka alam ko may jowa (we’re not that close now) but I just want to know why). Ayun nakita ko ilang beses niya pala siya sinesearch. Hinayaan ko lang yun para less stress pero kanina ang lakas ng kutob ko to borrow his phone so I did. I just saw na last search niya was last night 11:59pm (nakikita recent searches sa settings).

    Do you think there is something happening? Kakakita ko lang yun kanina as in kaya mixed emotions na ako. I want to cry pero taena what’s happening hahaha :((

    For reference, nasa iisang bahay lang kami at iisang kama na hinihigaan :>

      Probably he/she misses that friend. Mangangamba ka na lang siguro kung hindi na siya magpapahiram ng phone sa iyo.

    Baka daw di na uli mag-rehire yung company sa aming position, which means baka kami ay mabawasan ng day off. Hahaha. They do know na alis din kami if they do that, yes? Tangina bahala kayo, basta kami ready to bounce under unfavorable conditions. It’s not worth it at that point 😛

    Late nga yung kasama ko so nag timezone na lang ako. I played a zombie shooting game for the first time. I’ve actually never really played those kinds of games sa arcade kasi parang natatakot ako sa baril (I know it’s a toy but like I never really understood how reloading works and then you got all these things wanting to kill you, nakaka panic kaya). And it always seemed like a boys game na never ko maiintindihan nung bata pa ako. It just seemed intimidating overall.

    It’s my trying new things era. Anyway gets ko na magreload 😆 parang tumaas yung bp ko nung nilaro ko. I was half-shouting while playing kasi ang dami and they’re so close tapos ako, ‘Aaaah!!! Stay away from me!’ goes brrr brrr brrr

    Ayun, natatawa lang ako sa sarili ko. Buti na lang ako lang ang witness because that was a rare moment of me freaking out like a girly girl. Masisira ang calm and cool mysterious image ko hshshfks
