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.

Kaya usong uso mga kabitan at sampalan sa primetime kasi that's what people want to see. And by people, I mean the masa. Yan yung katulong na kinakaliwa pala ni mister while she's out there busting her ass. Yan yung sari-sari store/carinderia owner na nagfa-fantasize sa construction worker na araw araw kumakain/bumibili ng softdrinks sa tindahan nila. Yung mga tao na nagse-settle pa rin ng differences nila by means of throwing plates at sinasabunutan yung kabit pag nakita. Yung housewife na taga-saing, taga-laba, taga-luto na may internal turmoil.
Sa kanila naka-toka ang mga advertisers with their laundry detergents, ginisa mixes, infant formulas, at mga piniprito na processed/preserved foods.
Ika nga ni Michael Steintorf sa The Wire: "Kids don't vote".
