DISABLED ACCESS

Its clear that there is a requirement to provide disabled access to buildings, by the provision of ramps. You see them around Virac. But as an able-bodied person I find it difficult enough to navigate the streets; I am certain that disabled people are not helped one bit by the ramps. Their existence is simply paying lip-service to the regulations.
Pavements if there are any, are narrow, uneven and blocked by parked motorcycles or by shops spilling their goods onto them. Pedestrians are forced into the road.

The Dutertes defy Catholic bishops
AMADO P. MACASAET

‘There is no law that stops local politicians like Duterte and his daughter from implementing a population program.’

FOR the first time in my life, I have heard of father-and-daughter politicians who dare defy the Catholic bishops on the critical question of slowing down the birth rate in the Philippines.

Rodrigo Duterte who has served out three terms as Davao City mayor term and was succeeded by his own daughter (he is now the vice mayor) valiantly declared that the City of Davao has enough funds to buy contraceptives to be given to those who are willing to use them but not informing them about the advantages (or disadvantages, unrelated to scarcity of food, rising criminality, ignorance, and the pressure exerted on scare resources by a bloated population).

Never look down on anybody unless you're helping them up.

Do not criticize what you don't understand.

Masarap ang sex

Repost galing sa barriosiete.com gusto ko sanang palitan ang blog title pero wag nalang.

Mahalaga na masarap ang sex upang gawin natin ito. Sa kasalukuyan, ito ang pinakamabisang paraan ng pagpapalaganap ng sangkatauhan (o ng anumang hayop na nakasalalay ang pag-iral sa sekswal na reproduksyon). Ang sex ay produkto ng napakahabang proseso ng ebolusyon. Sa madaling salita, ‘kumbaga sa sukang-paombong, pinasarap ito ng panahon.

NEVER ENOUGH: a reminder to the followers of traditional, exclusive and dogmatic form of activism.

Ni Roger Cabiles Jr.

I joined the mob of activists and rallyists against GMA’s supposed to be last State of the Nation Address. Walked around the campus with friends and then marched our way to Commonwealth road near St. Peter‘s Church to join the different sectors of the society. . I participated in the ‘hymns and chants’ and even memorized some. Valiantly went home against the will of the hard and pouring rain to listen to GMA’s SONA.

(Pasabot: Ini para sa pulitikong daing naiheras na karahayan sa banwa. Kun aram mo na matanos asin marhay kang lider, ini bakong para saimo. Kun inakseptar mo na palpak ka, dedikado an tulang ini sa saimo asin manga kaarog mo).

Mahib-og na grabe an saimong pandok,
Perak nin banwa saimong pigsusupsop,
Fondo nin pobre binulsa mo kapalmuks,
Daing supog pati ki GMA gadila sa lubot!

Maurag kang magdiskurso sa entablado,
Pero tameme ka kan ika duman sa trono,

Did you ever noticed that those being assassinated are those who tells us to live together in harmony and love one another? Jesus, Ghandi, Lincoln, John Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy, Martin Luther, Malcolm X, John Lennon? Yet we call ourselves "highest form of animal".

We are the only creature on Earth that kill one another in d name of God. In fact, more people have been killed in the name of God than for any other reason--inquisition, crusades, 9/11, etc. The more devout we are, the more we see murder as "negotiable".

John Smith started the day early having set his alarm clock (MADE IN JAPAN ) for 6 a.m.

While his coffeepot (MADE IN CHINA ) was perking, he shaved with his electric razor (MADE IN PHILIPPINES ) .
He put on a dress shirt (MADE IN SRI LANKA ), designer jeans (MADE IN SINGAPORE ) and tennis shoes (MADE IN
VIETNAM). After cooking his breakfast in his new electric skillet (MADE IN INDIA ), then he sat down with his calculator (MADE IN MEXICO ) to see how much he could spend today.

Resolusyon

Resolusyon kontra rebolusyon na pambagong taon
ni Abet Umil

Saglit hanggang milenyum ang yunit na sumasaklaw sa daigdig at orbit nito.

Pag lipas ng mga araw o siglo, ang mga puno ay nagiging tabla. Ang bundok ay napupulbos. Ang ilog ay nagiging kalsada. Ang kalsada ay nagiging ilog. Ang organismo ay naklu-clone. Ang riyalidad ay nagiging birtwal. Ang panlipunan ay nagiging indibidwal.

E, ang indibidwal, ano kaya ang gustong maging?

Ano pa, e di maging perpekto.

Perpekto, tama. Perpekto.

On Activism and Militancy

"The system that condemns them is the very system that breeds them"
By Renato Constantino

To respect the good faith of these advocates, the activists does not mean to agree with them. What they advocate is "a new heresy claiming new insights". We must deal with their argument on its own merits, not attempt to discredit them by invectives. To call them the enemies of democracy is to behave like the Romans who condemned the Christians as "atheists" because they worshipped in a new way.

Maniwala ka. Hindi ako katulad mo. Hindi mo dapat gamitin ang salitang “kasama” tuwing kinakausap ako.

At kung ikaw ay isa pang estudyante, mas kailangan mong malaman ang isang napakahalagang bagay: Hindi mo dapat sundan ang mga yapak ko. Oo, marangal na mga propesyon ang pinili ko – ang pagiging propesor at peryodista – at patuloy kong pinaghuhusay ang aking kakayahan sa dalawang larangang ito.
