An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Probably quicksand.

I vaguely remember watching a lot of shows in the 90s that had a quicksand scene and it seemed really terrifying.

Took me growing up a little to realize that quicksand isn't something I should expect to encounter on a daily basis.

My first exposure to quicksand giving me the heebie-jeebies was that Steven Spielberg's Amazing Stories episode wherein their kid died and got reunited with his now dead wife. I guess it's intended to be touching/bittersweet, pero it really made me fear quicksands.
