Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! โœˆ๏ธ


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ


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.

So my dog died yesterday and I had to bury her myself. And I didn't go to work last night because of it.

Unpopular opinion, as I grow older birthdays seems to be less and less happy because of the toxic Filipino trait that you're obligated to spend extra for food to be eaten by people at your workplace that you're not that close to.

I am alive! Ang dami na pa lang nangyayari and I was so, so confused. Dumating na sa barangay ang lato-lato. Ang ingay din pala, akala ko joke-joke lang yung nakikita ko online. I will now try to explore this lemmy world. Hindi talaga ako makatulog at may eyebags na ako and I actually used concealer today, it's that bad. sigh im mf tired

Akala ata ni lola at ni papa controlled ko ang yt, messenger at fb, ako parati inaaway pag may issue. Akala ko kung ano na naman ginawa ko, di lang pala makita yung mga pictures na sinesend.

So not to brag (lol) but I am making:

2 batches of modified (rested overnight): https://tasty.co/recipe/the-best-chewy-chocolate-chip-cookies

Then using half of it for homemade cookie dough ice cream

Mods I did:

  1. Add a bit of oat flour (just food processed oatmeal) for another layer of flavor
  2. a bit of coffee powder
  3. A bit of cinnamon
  4. A bit of cocoa powder
  5. 25% less salt
  6. Used 3 bars of dark chocolate hersheys and 3 bars of milk chocolate with almond hersheys (probably not a good idea since it's supposed to be semi-sweet)

Also wtf jollibee megamall, you change to use those vibrating tiles and mine didn't vibrate at all and I waited 15 minutes.

thevisoria is now on Lemmy! I figured might as well make one here so classified ad type posts can be forwarded within the fediverse.

I feel bad for the devs of lemmy. It seems that everyone has their one foot out of door and cant wait to go back to reddit once the ph sub opens again. Lemmy welcomed us all with open arms pero iaabandon din pala after a few days and babalik sa reddit na greedy at toxic ang management team.

[โ€“] had0ken 7 points 2 years ago

Imma stay here. I do miss Reddit and the subreddits I usually browse but spez is greedy af.

normal bang hindi ka kasama sa dream ng jowa mo? sure may plans kami sa future pero tinanong ko sya today anong dream nya, sabi nya mag phd daw.

[โ€“] megane_kun 9 points 2 years ago

Not sure about normal, but I'd be okay with it.

Besides, I don't think it's necessarily true that you're excluded from their dream of being a PhD. Your mileage may vary though, since depending on how they are committed to their dream of being a PhD, your (future) life with them might take a backseat.

as an autistic person, if you succeed on coaxing him to your liking then you're in the wrong here and will turn your relationship to unhealthy one, my definition of healthy relationship is both parties are encouraging each other to grow independent of each other.

Here's the foundation principles I would like to be in a relationship:

  • both partners feel accepted, and have freedom to be themselves
    • You should never need to hide part of yourself to be accepted by your partner, get that phd jok
  • both partners are equal members of the relationship
    • So they have equal say about what happens in the relationship, personal choices is outside of this scope
  • Meaningful Lives Outside the Relationship
    • Clinging to each other too much is a huge red flag for me, goals, family and friends should be equal to gf/bf remember that he/she is not everything and he/she should be just a part of your life not the whole of it very unhealthy
  • Shared Selflessness
    • If you are more concerned with what your partner can do for you than what you can do for your partner, then you should not be with your partner and vice versa

I've never been into relationship btw so do what you want, also don't think of my word unhealthy as derogatory there's a fine line between unhealthy and abusive, unhealthy can be made healthy and abusive is a lost cause, and the former imho is what you will achieve if you coax him

fresh off the oven.
i created a community for Philippine travel. something i hope will be a combination of howtogettherePH and other travel-centric groups (directions, itineraries, packing lists, food and pasalubong reccos and other tips). but will not be limited to travel within the country, will also include travel advice for trips abroad (deals for exchanging currency, best season to visit etc).
looking forward to your stories.

Hanggang ngayon nangangapa pa ako sa Lemmy. Maybe it was because of the clunky mlem Beta app. But hopefully magkaroon na ng official iOS app for Lemmy ๐Ÿคž

[โ€“] clintoy23 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What I like about lemmy is there's no counter for karma on a person's profile. Walang epekto kahit gaano kadaming upvotes or downvotes ang nakuha ng isang account. Conversations in lemmy feel more genuine and authentic as people are not pressured to say things that will get upvotes. The bond and camaraderie among community members is stronger.

[โ€“] decadentrebel 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Clintoy is the "I was lost and now I'm found" case of r/PH that we could send over to The 700 Club and share his journey and rebirth as Lemmy ambassador.
