Had to be a plumber today. Laid some pipes, made sure water goes down. Forgot how tiring it is. Summer is soon coming and it is getting hot in the Philippines.
Makes me wonder what drives that man. The idea of untold quantities of treasure. For what?

Found somewhere in Facebook:
The story would have been set right, and Duterte and company would have been "real heroes", if they did something unthinkable: At the end of their term, knowing their crimes against God, against civility, against humanity, submitted themselves to receive what is due them - the bearer of the sword shall die by the sword.
But instead, self-preservation and reluctance to face a higher authority was too much for them.
And that's the key word here: accountability. If cleansing the archipelago of narcotics was their clarion call, their true and pure raison d'etre, then they knew that they had to break the rules to make things right.
They played the role of executioner which many Christians applauded.
But, what they should have known was at the end of their mission, they would have to answer for their own crimes - with their lives. If that is what they had done, then they would have been true patriots and heroes. But, that is not to be.
So what we have are two feuding camps, one feudal lord over another. Bereft of any moral ascendancy and catering to the simplistic mind of the naive voter.
That is what the Game of Thrones is all about. The greater liar will triumph over the lesser one.
But what actually paved the way for the return of the dictator's son was none other than Duterte himself.
He sided with the black propagandists and lie peddlers to eradicate the opposition. Now he cries for a democracy with an opposition?
What opposition? What civil society? Duterte and his minions obliterated any semblance of a credible opposition who will balance the power of the rising Marcos.
And that is why we are here today.

Caught on tape: The former President of the Philippines calling the sitting President of the Philippines a drug addict (presumedly cocaine)
Caught on tape, the current President calling the former President a Fentanyl addict:
A Tale of Two Presidents of the Philippines
One called the other a cocaine addict, the other called the other a Fentanyl Addict.
This while the new President wanted to amend the Constitution, while the former President wants to avoid prosecution by the International Criminal Court.
If you are a Filipino and voted for both of these, you deserve both of them.
What is sad, is that we, who did not vote for them do not deserve them.
Keep building nostriches.
This isn't just about page views.
This isn't just about 💰💰.
This isn't just about MAUs.
This is about freedom.
Keep building nostriches.

Never have I thought that the future I would be living in would bring back the shadows of the dictator. We have been complacent and now all of the literal crooks are in government. The old guard has gone - and the new guard, nonexistent...
They systematically eroded safeguards, checks and balances to cement their rise back to power. Now they want to change the Constitution for possibly the following things:
1. Foreign ownership of land.
2. Constitutional term limits.
This will cement their hold to power.
They now boast attendance of 250,000 people - no doubt a huge percentage of which are government employees who are encouraged to "voluntarily attend."
Figures. The host of the moves to amend the Philippine Constitution, is a shitcoiner.
