      Adulting. Mostly because people use it to refer to some supposed bucket list that one must do to be considered a grown up (e.g. saving, applying for IDs) when even a child do those, lol.

        Kidding. Mostly because people use it to refer to some suppose bucket list that one must do to be considered a funny one (e.g. punchlines, sarcasm) when even a serious one do those, lol

      “You deserve what you tolerate.”

      Such a mean thing to say to someone who’s at a low point in their life. It’s not a ‘wake up call’ that some people think it is. If you say this to a stranger, I would automatically assume that you lack empathy. No one deserves to be abused or manipulated. Some people grew up without knowing their worth, or how they should be loved and treated properly with respect. Their resilency to abuse doesn’t mean that they deserve it.

      Blood (in reality of the covenant) is thicker than water (actually of the womb).

      Also you are thiccer than both of these.

      If you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best

      Narrator: Yeah, sure, go justify your crappy, toxic behavior.

      We’re all people, but even at our worst, at least we should try to do our best to be good humans to other humans.

      I get where this quote is coming from, but it’s just been used too many times in the wrong way that the very sight of it leaves a bad taste in one’s mouth.

      Ignorance is Bliss

      okay lang maging ignorante sa mga bagay bagay pero kung nakaka-apekto na sa mga kasakasama mo hindi na.

    Quite a clusterfuck in Russia rn. I just hope this isn’t the domino that tips the world over into Fallout 5.

    It’s Wagner Group vs. Putin now.

    *Politico article.

    *Al-Jazeera live updates

    *BBC report

    TLDR: Wagner goes apeshit on Moscow, specifically the advisors to Putin on Ukraine because they believe Moscow used Wagner troops as cannon fodder, killing many mercs. Moscow says this is an armed rebellion, and tensions are on the rise.

    EDIT: Clarity. Wagner is not necessarily angry at Putin himself, rather at the leadership surrounding and advising him on Ukraine.

    “argue like you love someone”

    me and my incoming dark thoughts: I hate this world 😊 just trying to make something out of it, y’know? Hihi 🌸

    If I was in that one BM episode I’d talk back and maybe say, why would I burden myself of unaliving someone when this world can just burn? Who are you to suddenly give me a responsibility that I didn’t ask for? And for what, just for someone else’s entertainment?

    All this corporate beaurocratic shit and you couldn’t even have shown me the t&c? What is even reality? You should’ve picked someone more entertaining to mess with.

    I am pretty angry. People are annoying. Sometimes I just want to isolate myself and brood.

    NGL it feels good to finally do things I always fantasize doing, kagaya ng pagrampa sa platform ng LRT 2 sabay twirl a la Catriona Gray pagtapat sa kahit anong ceiling fan na umaandar.

    Good morning!

    Ma share lang, just got home from a long day of work. I haven’t seen a work drama for a while, nagka open forum after ng meeting pero it’s a calm and civilized back and forth argument. Nothing juicy, I just can’t help comparing it sa sigawan sa work ko dati sa pinas.

    One of our head officers got fired from the position, it was immediately replaced with a brand new personnel. People from that team didn’t take it well and they’re just salty about it because the top leadership chose a brand new and non-experienced over one of the team with more experience.

    I like changes in what’s going on in our troop, top leadership trying to get rid of the bad culture that has been plaguing for a while. Don’t get me wrong, our troop performed outstandingly at a brigade level but it sacrifices the well-being of the other personnel in the troop, that includes me.

    Hopefully malagpasan tong transition period, takte nakaka burnout na din.
