I honestly wish we had more infograhics about ferry service commuting on social media. At some point, I wanna try using that to commute.

Sana talaga tuluyan nang makulong sina Bato (MIA) at Bong Go sa ICC, at sina Chiz, Joel, at Jinggoy (flood control).

It is now CONFIRMED that the ICC has labeled Bong Go as a co-perpetrator of the drug war.

Is he gonna follow Bato's footsteps and go into hiding? In that case, would that mean there would be a decrease in the Minority bloc's presence in the Senate? 🤔🤔🤔

I'm glad someone on Threads finally pointed this out because this is a WEIRD urban layout. I can't think of a city outside the Philippines where gated communities crowd the railway stations and major thoroughfares like this.

I don't think the driver should be criminally liable for accidentally hitting the student who jumped off the LRT station (RIP to him) and hit his car on his fall. If it ever goes to court, it's going to be a landmark case since there isn't a law that specifically addresses this matter.

This also includes foreign workers who are part of illegal mining operations. Get out of our country!

If you're pissed off at what Robin Padilla said about depression, just remind him about the ICC detainee in The Hague.

Someone on Threads criticized how the MRT-7 stations "contribute little to the urban character of one of Metro Manila's most important corridors" and that "public infrastructure so often defaults to the purely functional."
Additionally, the reason these commuter areas are concentrated is because we've built Metro Manila around highways like EDSA, but we've populated the areas surrounding it with gated communities. The lack of transit-oriented development reduced these transit areas to its basic functions.

We don’t need a Kan*n Party List. That's some chronically-online 4chan concept for Filipinos that think they're American but are completely detached from the Philippines' political landscape and reality. Stop giving them clout.

You will never catch me doing that trend of asking ChatGPT to make a caricature of me based on what it knows about me.

Didn't occur to me that we have a law requiring students to plant trees before graduating with a diploma. Looks cool until you realize that the government is doing little to stop illegal deforestation from mining companies that are also destroying the locals' livelihood.

I think that protected and interconnected bike lane networks with NCAP can help make biking safer as a mode of transport in Metro Manila.

I was a victim of labor malpractice by the environmental planning industry in the Philippines. My boss did not pay me for a month of work for this accredited professional organization because the rest of the board members did not know about my contract.

China and Facebook are destroying the Philippines.

In the Philippines, we really built our cities weirdly. I think this happens because our cities here are built around highways. Even then, cities all over the world don't spam footbridges the way we Filipinos do, especially with this design.

This is wild. 🤯

Fun fact: I took the UPCAT at the Chem Building, where the vintage bomb was discovered.

Didn't we have double-decker buses plying along EDSA before? They didn't look like the bus pictured below, but they looked longer. But a better solution would be to convert the Carousel into a BRT.

Someone said the boundary system needs to be removed to prevent overcrowding, and I agree with that.

Why do we even have Senators who are Pro-China? What is wrong with them?
February 2, 2026 at 12:11 PM
These are key questions that are worth asking about our cities

- Why do vendors sell things on sidewalks and footbridges?
- Why do motor riders use bike lanes and sidewalks?
- Why do the homeless sleep on public benches?

Oftentimes, people like to say wALaNg dESePleNa, but I refuse to believe this

Engot-engot talaga yung mga decision-makers at planners na hindi naglalagay ng mga benches sa public areas kasi raw ginagawang tulugan ng mga homeless. Eh di sana nag-invest kayo sa affordable housing na may access sa mga opportunities nila na magkaroon ng livelihood.

Hope I can actually get a job at Clean Air Asia. I liked the work I did there for my internship, and the office was just a bus ride away.
