Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️

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.

Tonight's Ask PHLemmy: How are single income households surviving in this economy?

[–] heliosef 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Di ko rin alam.

I'm sending home a specific amount monthly. It used to be a comfortable amount for their monthly expenses, but it's starting to get into the not-enough territory and I'm concerned.

I just bought a cup of rice sa Lawson kanina. 17Php na siya from 15Php before. That's a 13% price hike. You'll be lucky to get a 7% yearly pay raise if you're not job hopping.

I guess we're nearing the 20Php rice that we were promised. Per cup daw pala and not per kilo.

I decided to check on my older, rarely-used IG alternate yesterday and was surprised to see that I made more posts there in such a short span (between 2016-mid 2018) than my main/current IG account. I probably made uploads thrice in a day. Maybe because I only had 3 followers there so I didn't care about audience fatigue or what others thought in general; I just wanted to document whatever happened to my day as frequently as I possibly can.

Quick observations:

I had a massive crush on Allison Harvard. A cursory Google search and looks like her decision to move here in the Philippines didn't pan out beyond a few hosting gigs here and there.
I took plenty of photos of anything that accidentally spelled "cunt" or "ass".
Every week, I have a screenshot of an unfortunate experience with either Uber or Grab. Now I know the reason why I conceived r/GrabShame.
Some of my posts would qualify as doxing as I would take covert snapshots of plates and faces of small inconveniences that I encounter whether it's someone cheating on the MRT queue by falling in line under women (while directly underneath the sign that says so) or cars/motorcycles blocking pedestrian lanes.

r/GrabShame

Sad na hindi ko nadiscover tong sub na to. Ahahah Magiging frequent poster din siguro ko dyan.

Sobrang badtrip kapag yung kasabay mo ayaw gumilid or umusog kapag sasakay ka na. Mas may courtesy pa mga nakakasabay sa jeep kesa sa grabshare.

[–] decadentrebel 3 points 1 year ago

Bumagal activity ng sub once the pandemic struck kaya nabaon na sa limot. But it had potential kahit na looking back medyo nagpopromote ako "brigading" haha. Kita kasi names and plates nung mga driver, and you're relying on what the OP is claiming.

I think my favorite post is when I used "Paloma Esmeria" as my name to get someone to pick me up kasi walang kumukuha kahit na ang daming Grab sa vicinity. Still didn't work, lmao.

Yung ang tagal ko na naghahanap ng Tomi sa grocery pero meron pala sa katabing tindahan 🥲

Mukang sa puregold siguro sila bumibili ng stocks.

Swerte ng mga nakapagpa-pirma kay Luka. I doubt mahahagilap mo siya in public in the next few days after how tonight ended. 😂

Edit: Please sign me, Devin Booker's father.

Luka cost them the game last night. It was a very close game in the first half but Canada pulled away and never looked back after Luka's technical foul during the start of the 3rd quarter. Sobrang patalo talaga nung tech niya maski ako nakaramdam na mukhang dito na matatambakan Slovenia, whole Slovenia team looked deflated after that play. Iyak kasi ng iyak kada contact. He really needs a zen master a la Phil Jackson.

[–] decadentrebel 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Totoo. Dami niya mga post up na kayang kaya naman niya ilapit sa basket si Dort/Brooks pero ipupukol niya lang para makakuha ng tawag. Tapos magagalit siya pag walang pito when they were barely making contact.

Yari na naman Dallas pag ganyan pa rin approach niya next season.

[–] clintoy23 1 points 1 year ago

Kaya nga eh apektado kasi masyado sa officiating. Nakakainis laglag tuloy agad sila. Grabe pa naman supporta sa kanya ng mga pinoy saya sana kung magkatapat sila ng usa sa finals. Parang mas malakas ng slight ang sigawan kay luka compared to austin reaves haha. Tapos sa comments section puro kampi sa slovenia ang mga pinoy luto at pabor daw masyado sa canada ang tawagan. Pati alex cabagnot at tito sotto napatweet na lutong luto daw slo hahaha.

Anyway, usa should wrap this tournament up then looking forward na ako sa nba next season. My lakers are looking stacked as fuck.

Luguentz Dort is Luka Doncic's father

Ang kulit nung pusa namin sa work, tinatalunan talaga ako kapag dumadaan. Minsan magugulat na lang ako may biglang nag projectile papunta sa paa ko, minsan padaan pa lang ako kita ko na naka-position na siya sa gilid, ready to pounce on me. thoughts: shet, ako ba tatalunan nito? Ay ako nga.

Hinahabol ko ba siya after niya ako talunan? Minsan oo 🙈 ang kulit-kulit. Makulit rin ako jk.

[–] clintoy23 1 points 1 year ago

Good afternoon monknonoke

Magandang image hosting website for photo sharing sa Lemmy, besides imgur?

Btw, this is @[email protected]. I created this Lemmy.world account as a "backup" two months ago
