This is the kind of extremely stupid, ableist and uninformed level of banter that should not be given any kind of airtime or platform in today’s world.
It is also a crime. Under Republic Act No. 9442 engaging in the "public ridicule" or "vilification" of a Person with Disability (PWD) is a criminal offense.
Shame on all of you. You make me sick to my stomach. The title of the show itself was misogynistic in nature.
Apologize to every parent and every neurodivergent child.

The Philippine Statistics Authority recorded 13,125 deaths due to land transport accidents in 2023, an average of 36 daily and 7.2 percent more than in 2022. Behind every number is a family that has lost a loved one, a breadwinner or a future. manilatimes.net/2026/10/10/b…

I computed the totality of pork after the BARSC amendments.
Ito ang lumabas - 7.5% (Php541.4 billion) of the 7.2 Trillion national budget is pork.
Ito ay total ng soft pork (ayuda), hard pork (hyper-local infra) and the whole LGSF.

The ability to inspire & move people is a gift that can’t be measured by points or rankings—numbers that’ll never tell the whole story of persistence, sacrifice, burden that comes with it. Eala-mania isn’t just a trend. It’s passion personified & we’re lucky to live in her @time.

Dahil sa inaasahang patuloy na epekto ng "Very Strong" El Niño, inaasahang ang lubhang tuyong panahon sa malaking bahagi ng bansa sa susunod na anim (6) na buwan.
Kasabay ng paghina ng #habagat, ang pangunahing nagdala ng ulan sa bansa nitong mga nakaraang buwan, malaking bahagi ng Luzon na ang inaasahang makakaranas ng mas tuyong panahon ngayong Oktubre 2026 na inaasahang lalala pa pagsapit ng Disyembre.
Pagpasok ng 2027, inaasahang halos buong bansa na ang makakaranas ng matinding kakulangan sa tubig-ulan, lalo na sa Luzon at Visayas, na malawakan na ang inaasahang "drought", ayon sa climate outlook ng PAGASA.
Ang kawalan ng ulan sa mga susunod na buwan ay posibleng magpalala ng krisis sa agrikultura, kakulangan sa suplay ng tubig at kuryente, at mas mainit na panahon. Maging handa po!
