On August 16, 2011, Harry Roque tweeted this, and it remains accessible to this day. The irony? Roque, who once celebrated the Philippines' membership in the ICC, later became a staunch ally of #Duterte, who has now been arrested by the ICC. — WALPHS.com

Where were these cries for justice when farmers were massacred in Negros? When Kian begged for his life before being shot in the head? When Carl was labeled a criminal, tortured, and executed? When Reina Mae was denied the right to grieve for her baby? www.walphs.com/2025/03/dute...

I’m officially internationally published — and in #Out Magazine to boot! 😭 My opinion piece, in which I examine the cognitive dissonance behind the literal belief in the Virgin Birth — a paradox embraced by millions of Catholics — is now live in its final version: out.com/gay-news/osc...

Sara Duterte was right about one thing, though. God save the Philippines. From her. From her family. And from a leadership that treats national crises like a bad breakup — dramatic, self-serving, and completely unserious. www.walphs.com/2025/02/sara...

The "English-only" policy at that school in Laguna reminds me of something I wrote in the Inquirer a couple of years ago. Though ayoko ng pagkaka-chop-chop ng INQ sa gawa ko — they murdered my intro — but I digress. 😂
