      taking care of yourself and your health. not in an emotional/spiritual sense, but of putting more value into maintaining good health and hygiene. it makes the general quality of life so much better and easier.

      and i guess also being honest in introspection. being oblivious to or in denial of what you want leads to a lack of satisfaction and wasting time be true to yourself and what you want. we can’t want what we want so get out there - and in there - with yourself and learn to be independent of others’ impositions lmaoooo

    TW: Another rant. Pasensya na sumusulpot sa social media e, lmao.

    Dami na naman pakialamero at matapobre about glutathione and using its alleged illegality para mang-shame ng mga tao.

    First of all, the treatment isn’t illegal. What’s illegal is injectable glutathione, mostly because it’s performed by unlicensed clinics. DOH is fine with glutathione procedures as long as it’s done by an accredited facility. But of course, they’re going to do their due diligence and outright oppose its skin whitening use.

    Walang pera karamihan para sa fucking St. Lukes BGC or to bribe those in NKTI to have it done (since you need to have a good reason for it beyond skin whitening), so they go to haoshao clinics instead. They figured sa dinami dami ng mga naga-avail ng procedure, there’s only 1 or 2 known casualties in the last decade. It’s a risk akin to liposuction and other cosmetic procedures.

    Bakit gumagamit si Mariel nung IV if they’re rich? I have no idea. Vit C daw (which goes in hand with the procedure), idk and don’t care. What she and every single wannabe Ivana Alawi/Yassi Benitez do with their skin is none of my business. If madisgrasya sila because of it, then that’s on them. Pera nila yun, buhay nila yan.

    Society glorified yung Westernized look e, and we’re all guilty of it. It started from our forefathers and it continues with the newer gens with k-pop kung san nauso mga bleached hair at yung mapuputi na makikinis.

    sa mga mahilig sa libre at mahilig sa movies, UP Diliman is one of the screening venues of the Japanese Film Festival 2024 that runs from 22 Feb - 02 Mar.

    i have watched 3 movies so far and am planning to watch more. they have 7pm screenings, perfect as an after-work pre-uwi transition.

    of course hindi sa lahat ng bagay at sa lahat ng pagkakataon kailangan ang fit na police officer na kaya tumakbo nang hindi hihingalin o aatakihin sa puso. pero kung sa oras na kailangan ito, mas maigi na yan ang nandoon. yung mga decorated officer, kadalasan nasa opisina na sa later part ng career pero yung mga nasa streets pa, mas maayos sana kung kaya pa tumakbo.

    part na siguro sa tendency ko na mag-isip ng worst case scenario palagi.

    have you ever stopped to consider how much your own motivation relies on other people being incapable of doing certain tasks? how the output can only feel gratifying if no one else can do something like you do, despite requiring minimal effort? 🤔🤔

    If anyone else here uses nitter to access Twitter without an account, their last remaining instances shut down tonight.

    Good for them for keeping it up as long as they did, but oh well.

    Just got an email from Reddit (being an ex-mod and all) that we get a chance to buy stock at the same price as institutional investors. Yun nga lang it’s only available to US residents.

    I mean I hate Spez and all but if there’s one thing I learned from the blackouts, people (the backbone of what makes Reddit great) will continue to go and post there. So if this was an option for us, I’d definitely invest lalo na if the IPO is cheap.

    I think their stock will go up once Spez eventually sells it to some conglomerate who will then maximize ads and squeeze every potential dollar out of it. Ngayon pa nga lang he’s already making moves by selling Reddit content to an AI company. Wag nga lang si Elon bibili, lmao.
