    Ito yung isa sa mga commonality ni BBM sa previous admin na ayaw ko. Appointing questionable hacks purely out of utang na loob. Still can’t get used to seeing press cons and it’s fucking Daphne Osena smack dab in the middle. Or Arnell Ignacio handling the plight of OFWs, among many other appointments.

    Wala talaga magbabago kun kurap ang nakaluklok. Not only corruption, pero supporting bilyonaryong kulto is Philippines’ political problem. We need Leni as a start to change the political landscape, pero 31M chose to stay the same.
