We beg to differ.
Before we get into the meat of this post, I think an explanation on the term “bucket list” is owed towards those out of the loop. A bucket list is a list of activities a person intends to do before they die or, idiomatically speaking, before they “kick the bucket.” This is not to say…

The edification of Benigno C. Aquino III (PNoy) begins. My basic problem with the Yellowidiots is their holier-than-thou attitude and the hypocrisy that comes with it. I’ve experienced what it’s like to be gaslighted into believing that all of former President Ferdinand Marcos was bad. That was my political naiveté at its peak. But since…
Urbanity and civility sounds better in Spanish – urbanidad y civilidad. Pinoys are by nature respectful of the dead. That’s why Noynoy Aquino became President in 2010.

Contreras was actually a Jojo Binay – Marcos cheerleader in that election cycle. Back then, he was a critical collaborator of Duterte he said while fully-embracing the label of…
In his piece “The Marcos maneuver”, Inquirer columnist Manuel L Quezon III (MLQ3) indulges himself with a bit of wishful thinking, hoping that the formidable administration coalition would break up and the Opposition taking back power in 2022. What Ferdinand Martin Romualdez could not say about Ferdinand Romualdez Marcos Jr. is that the former senator…
When you have a Senator who wants to be President on the basis of his popularity, it’s safe to say he will be mouthing populist policies in aid of election. Senator Manny “Pac-Man” Pacquiao was quoted last week saying that if he is elected President, he will give each and every homeless Filipino a home….
