Unti unti ng nagiging serviceable ang Frontpage > Subscribed ko. Baka dahil nag sub ako sa linux and anime communities, pero majority are still cat pics, as designed. Lol.

Hopefully mawala na yung urge tumambay sa Frontpage > All, medyo puro gloom and doom karamihan ng nandun.

Naway mas masaya "Monday" nyo mga ka-phlemmings.

What a doozy of a week. Attended the funeral of a female coworker who I consider to be a good friend and a kindred spirit. Imagine getting a disease that's so rare (GBS) only 3k people in the world have it.

Nakakatakot yung knife attack sa Sydney mall. Kaya despite my frustrations with the country, I'm still happy na wala tayo mass shootings dito despite the lax gun ownership laws. Wala tayong mga trip trip lang na spree killings. Walang serial killers. Walang nagpapangap na nasiraan ng sasakyan just to murder you. Racism and homophobia are usually limited to childish jokes, walang discrimination or hate crimes.

The irony is the MRT being fucked up is because of Noynoy — yung only time na "bumoto ng tama" ang mga pinoy in recent memory. Under his administration, they replaced the Japanese subcontractor with a PH group (kasi mas mura daw yung $1.15m na singil kaysa sa $1.433m) tapos tinaasan pa mga pamasahe to justify the improvement of services. Not only did it go downhill from there, it's a hellhole because they extended the contract of said inutile subcontractor na turns out kamag-anak pala nung nag-approve ng bid.

Nood ba kayo kanina showtime? Weird na makita join ang abs saka gma, pero mas patok kesa sa fake bulaga lol

hmm could probs help to get this offmychest

had to decline a much younger cousin's invitation to her debut. not the first time i declined an invite to important family-once-in-a-lifetime events (don't do it, just go). just a little weird there's not much pushback - then again i no longer associate with family so her expectations were likely very low

like she and i could've been close and her mom seems to have thought i would've been a good influence to her growing up when she needed help with school and talking about her interests with people who aren't her friends her age and elders (plus out of all her other cousins our side of the family it seems i was the most patient with her ig?) so i kinda wanna go but then what it's just weird i'll just ghost them again after lmao and i have to be chummy with family just for the night? like last time this happened was my brother's wedding which was kinda lowkey and i still made sure i'd prepare for it and come but members of the family were surprised i did, even my brother was (like what you invited me lol?) and they were kinda feeling i would make a scene so ig they're also kinda happy i wanted to leave early? lmao

anyway back to my cousin - didn't have to make excuses and she just went "okay, maybe next time!" but like why is there that sort of guilty vibe like lmao they probably learned of my suicide attempt (which i never explicitly admitted to anyone besides our then helper with whom i had no choice but to disclose because she caught me before i was able to clean up lol) and they probs found my backup tools, by that i mean a bunch of counterindicative otc stuff hehehe like why hide a bunch of otc meds hehehehehe

but like i mean girl you probably read of depression and suicidal people and ig maybe she's shocked to know someone like that irl and so close to her hehe but it's not her fault like don't feel guilty about it kek i'm sad that she's sad about it but she has to let it go lol kinda sad if the next time she sees me is at my funeral for dying a little earlier as expected? perhaps it wouldn't sting as much if i make it seem like an accident. hehe i no longer seriously consider it but it's just cute to think it'll be easier for them to move on if i just get it over with

my life's been lame and boring and already deserving of contentment anyway how about we do it for the content ah fuck that dark feeling is coming back and i missed it sooooo much and i love it kesa naman boring jsq

the world's so stupid and pointless and lame and fucked up but at least there's plenty of people i've met who seem to be much happier without my influence. the joy i could bring to people who'd be sad with me gone won't compare to the comfort and peace i'd be indirectly giving to those people who are glad i'm no longer in their lives. i no longer want anything for myself anyway like YEAH FUCK I LOVE THIS ♥♥

Lisa Frankenstein wasn't that good, particularly the third act. Buti na lang malaki role ni Liza with some good acting to boot.

May bago lemmy ui, pero dipa stable

@the_yaya

Namatayan na naman ng former coworker, one who was there with us for the funeral last week. And unlike the latter who was battling GBS complications for several months, this one came off left field.

semi-sleep paralysis to lucid dreaming goes hard bc wdym there was a bulky faceless shadow L4D-ish Witch monster who knocked me down helpless and bit and ate my face and vanished and then i get up angry and rampaging and crushing desks and tables and concrete walls that are in my way to find the Witch thing and have my revenge? then i grab it and next thing i know i'm having intimate moments with it while it was formless and invisible like ????? im being sweet and sensual with literal air, and then it materializes later to be some kpop idol like wtffffff

any unethical LPT when it comes to dealing with customs?

It's been days since I finished Netflix's 3-body problem. Still thinking re it from time to time. Not a masterpiece so I'm not suggesting that you watch. But the science concepts tickled me. I <3 physics. The many physics references surprised me. For laypeople, Idk if the many physics references were too many or just right. Idk if someone who doesn't know much science will be turned off.

Some readers said books 2 and 3 were great.

Ex-Momoland member Nancy McDonie signs with GMA's Sparkle

I'm surprised hindi masyado pumatok si Nancy. Maybe the lack of individual talent? Pwede naman ma-workshop yun. Looks-wise, she's one of the prettiest sa k-pop for sure.

First time to hit the gym consistently last week. Spartan lang yung gym at walang aircon tapos puros HIIT-style. Hindi ko kinaya, laging half sets lang ako haha. Time to reach out to my former trainer and have a program made instead of a one-size fits all workout that only applies to 345-pounders trying to lose weight.

Softest mod ka talaga @[email protected] 🤣

Ganda ng Shogun. Best TV series I've seen since Succession. Fan talaga ako ng mga shows na lahat ng characters kahit maliit lang role maalala mo because of how well-written they are.

kailangan ko na talaga ng practice ha di na nakakatuwa 😭

Tanginang init ito walang sinabi aircon.
