Disney made an amazing Filipino-themed Xmas ad, but since most of the media coverage I've seen misses the pinoy-ness of it all, I thought I'd make a thread about all the little cultural details for any who might be interested #philippines #DisneyChristmasAd2020

It’s #LGBTSTEMDay! The best day this side of the year. To celebrate, I’ve made a video about some LGBTQ+ STEM figures of past and present, including a discussion of why it’s so important to recognise and celebrate the latter. 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ youtu.be/mog8dUe6SXo #LGBTQSTEMDay

The family live in the UK (note the red postbox). I moved here with my mom (a nurse) to a city that looked very much like this, and seeing this story and culture, which I share with many others, represented this way, was something really special. So, thanks @Disney_UK

So that's just a few things I picked up on. Thanks for stopping by. Bonus tidbit: Filipinos celebrate the run up to Christmas for all of the 'Ber' months, so you'll often see decorations going up as early as September. Here's a couple pics from when I visited last year in October
