My honest review of Buruguduy The Musical Nung una, akala ko parang mababaw na patawa lang. Medyo nakornihan pa nga ako nung simula eh. Naisip ko "ang labo naman nito...patawa lang sila ng patawa" (buti nalang nakakatawa talaga sila✌🏼😅) Siguro I was trying to look for something deeper, and was hoping that things would soon make sense...or at least magkaroong ng satisfying amount of substance in their world of absurdity (naks...world of absurdity) Sure, it was fun and funny...and how the songs were used (and how the actors performed them), were amazing, and the visual assault was spectacular. Given na yun eh. ...but I kept asking myself, yun na ba talaga yun? Isang nakakatawang trip na may simpleng closure sa dulo? Then looking back, I soon realized how dark and simple the narrative was. Para akong binuhusan ng isang timba ng malamig na tubig. It was brilliant. Like a deep disturbing track disguised as a novelty song. Every single line and element pala were symbols and clues on what the story was all about...even the stupidest little things. Everything about it was precise and calculated. Lahat sinadya. Sobrang galing nung writer. Sobrang galing nila lahat. Napaka-fearless and unapologetic. Parang "kung di mo napansin yung serious side, oks lang...at least natawa at natuwa ka...and yun naman ang importante" 😁👍🏼 Kung na-gets mo naman, parang "p*tang ina...yun pala yun. Mga sira-ulo sila" 🤟🏼😳 sobrang in your face pala yung kwento. Sobrang dark and twisted, pero may subtle, at simple, and beautiful na silver lining.❤️ May seryosong matututunan, at makatotohanan na inspirasyon...na binalot sa isang makulit at magical na mundo. Basta...sobrang galing. ...and sobrang saya lang. Isang feel good na musical (na may dark twist all throughout) at siguradong lalabas kang naka-ngiti.❤️ Excited na ako manood ulit bukas...pero this time, I'll be looking out for more clues, hints, and easter eggs. ...or maybe, I'll just sit back, and simply enjoy the ride, without thinking too much. Cheers!!! P.S. sa mga magtatanong, hindi po ako nagbebenta ng tickets✌🏼😅 kung gusto nyo ng tickets try nyo tawagan si Pie +639178728765

Grabe, yung gay issues kay Alden, hindi na talaga namamatay. 😂 Eh pinatotohanan na nga nina Julie and Maine yung mga sinabi ni Alden. 🤷🏻‍♀️ EXCEPT, of course, yung kay Wyn Wyn. Mukhang hindi niya nabasa na romantic pala yung mga pinakita ni Alden back then. 😂 And just recently, sinabi ni Alden kay Karen Davila na na-reject na siya sa love. Which is very different from his statements before Hello, Love, Again na hindi pa siya nababasted. So yes, possible na hindi nag-work out with Kath if he ever pursued her. And knowing now that she’s with the mayor... And thats OK.. Kabawasan ba kay Alden yun? I don't think so. And I certainly wouldn't hold it against Kath either. Like… some people are simply not meant to be. SIMPLE. 😂 Ang funny lang kasi sobrang cliche na sa showbiz...kapag walang girlfriend, hindi brusko, or hindi womanizer ang image… bakla agad. 😂 Can we PLEASE level up the discourse? 15 years na si Alden sa industry. A LIST artist at that... For sure, in all those years, kung totoong ganoon siya, kahit isang concrete proof man lang dapat may lumabas na. Andami nang nabubuking na issues involving people who aren't even close to his level of fame. Pero kay Alden? Blind item. Chismis. "May nagsabi"... Walang bang "Nakakita" Di nman pwede yung naamoy lang natin hahahahaha Ganun na ba talaga tayo kababaw? We believe every rumor just because it fits the narrative we already want to believe. Hindi lahat ng chismis nagiging fact dahil lang paulit-ulit niyong sinasabi. Diba pwedeng may certain type lang talaga siya? 😂 Kasi if you look at the girls he has openly liked or been linked to, may common denominator naman. Women with substance. Matatalino. Simple pero malakas ang dating. Sexy in their own way.. May sariling identity. May presence. Hindi yung kailangan loud or trying hard para mapansin. Maybe that’s simply his type. Maybe it takes time for him to genuinely develop feelings for a girl because he doesn’t do playtime. Hindi lahat ng lalaki kailangan may roster para mapatunayan ang pagkalalaki. 😂 Bawal ba maging softie ang lalaki? Bawal ba maging selective? Bawal ba yung slow burn instead of collecting women for validation? Because honestly, kadalasan MAS lalaki pa yung mga ganyang tipo kaysa sa mga trying-hard maging playboy just to prove something. There’s nothing weak about a man who knows what he wants, takes his time, protects his heart, and doesn’t give it away just to satisfy expectations. And honestly, mas interesting pa nga yun kaysa pilit nating hanapan ng malisya ang isang lalaki just because he doesn't fit the usual showbiz stereotype.. Kaya tayo binabaha eh. Ang dali nating maniwala sa tsismis. 😂 VOTE WISELY.. KEME😂 #ALDENRICHARDS

Ive always wanted to post this whole conversation.. BIANCA' S PARENTS MUST HAVE AVAILED THE LIVESTREAM.. THATS WHY THEY NEVER judged DUSTIN. LIKE his haters did who probably watch it in Primetime, which is super edited or on tiktok vids who surely spliced it even more... to paint a certain narrative. He is just emotional of what happened.. Aminado nman silang lahat na sinadya nilang asarin sya ng paulit ulit. Kaya nya natawag na insensitive si michael kasi alam ng hurt na sya di pa rin tumitigil. ( even josh shared his experience with Michae and kira ) When he said di sya sanay sa ganun babae : putol lang kasi pero at the start of the video.. Dustin : ipaparinig mo na may gusto kang iba. my favorite part? How he explained "makakaapekto yun sa tingin ko syo." Dustin: ganun nman kasi talaga like yung actions natin.. for example sipain ko yan (cup tower) kahit sabihin kong joke lang nman anu magiging tingin mo sa kin? KUPS AKO. ginawa ko sya eh.. If anything this video proves kung gano nya talaga kagusto si Bianca from the start. Na before the incident puro positive lang yung nakikita nya sa kanya... and he was really happy. Natawa pa ko sa part na sabi nya.. Ienjoy na lang daw nya.. (stay sa PBB) di nman daw kailangan (lovelife) .. tapos sasabihin nyo sya ang may hanap ng loveteam... and sna na-air yung part na to.. Josh : outside ba di ka inaasar ng tropa mo? Dustin: inaasar nila ako sa gusto ko.. Hinde yung ganun.. Yung harapan tapos tropa tapos babae (na yung mga tropa nya tutuksuhin yung isa pa nyang tropa sa gusto nyang girl ) 😂 GETS?? he also mentioned that at that point.. they've had serious conversations na about family etc. Josh even asked if maingay pa din si bianca during those talks.. Dustin: TAHIMIK i also appreciate how he stopped talking when he noticed cameras were on him and how he said mabait si brenty. ( na di rin comfortable kay michael by the way eh first duo nya 😂) i hope everyone should see this.. the very conversation that has been blown out of proportion.. All villains have Backstories.. YES! but Dustin? he wasnt the villain...his backstory? makes him the victim.. Thank you sa pag edit sa primetime.. berigood kayo. #dustbia #dustinyu #BIANCADEVERA

Even in a relatively smaller venue, SB19 proved exactly what we've always known: it's never about how big the stage is, it's about the heart, presence, and power they bring to it. Kahit stripped-down ang setup, they never let the audience feel like they're getting less. In fact, they always give more pa nga. Did you see how they improvised their intro and their adlibs sa ibang songs just to recreate that same epic, goosebump-inducing feeling from the SAW kickoff? Ganyan sila kagaling. Ganyan sila kagenerous sa pagpeperform. You can truly see how much they respect every stage they stand on and every audience they perform for. Alam nilang bawat show is special, kaya binubuhos talaga nila lahat, kahit saang venue pa yan. SB19 really knows how to make every space feel big because their presence is THAT massive. And honestly? Ang swerte din ng Taipei audience and yung mga susunod pang international stops nila. With a more intimate venue, parang naka-VIP na silang lahat diyan. Eh di ba sumulpot pa nga si Pablo dun sa second level for their first song na What? Grabeh. Imagine that. Kaya huge kudos and heartfelt congratulations to our incredible SB19 boys and the entire 1Z Entertainment team for consistently delivering nothing but the best: the best shows, the best performances, and the best experiences for us A'TIN. Your passion, hard work, and love for your craft will never ever go unnoticed. 💙 SB19 FIRES UP TAIPEI SB19 Official #SB19 #SimulaAtWakasInTaiwan

May El Niño ba sa utak ni Lustay? Parang wala na kasing mapiga even an iota of understanding on how oil prices actually work. Free naman magbasa kung may time pero hindi magawa? Ghorl, dependent ba ang presyo ng langis sa kung saan ito binili? You make it sound like the Philippines is stuck with the Middle East. Sila lang ba ang may langis? What about the other oil-producing countries outside the region? Yes, a large portion of our imports from the Middle East is crude oil; but the Philippines also sources from other suppliers like Russia, Malaysia, and other countries (possibly Latin America and Africa). For refined fuel, we import from Malaysia, South Korea, Singapore, China and other regional suppliers. Which means: may alternative sources na ang Pilipinas. So, tanong: since may alternatives tayo, bumaba ba ang presyo ng langis? HINDI. Because oil prices are not determined by where the Philippines buys. Prices are set by global benchmarks. We can switch suppliers all we want, but if global prices are high, mataas pa rin ang presyo sa Pilipinas dahil private sector ang nagse-set ng presyo depende sa kung magkano ang bili nila. Alangan naman malugi sila. (Oil Deregulation Law yan). So, the claim that prices will keep rising unless we find alternatives to the Middle East speaks more of your brain’s capacity to understand the oil market. Even countries that don’t rely on the Middle East are affected because the market is global. And like I posted before, the Philippines is a price taker, not a price setter. We don’t influence prices, we follow them. Hindi naman tayo member ng OPEC+ to be able to influence the price. Kahit saan pa tayo bumili, kung mataas ang presyo sa global market, mataas pa rin ang babayaran natin. So, again, remind us, bakit gusto mo ulit maging presidente kung basic global pricing mechanics hindi mo gets?

Just days after Claire Castro inaccurately and maliciously took Franco Cruz Mabanta's apology to the First Family out of context to allegedly help the narrative of nationally shamed former Martin Romualdez, the Presidential Spokesperson found herself on the receiving end of the verbal wrath of honorahle and patriotic Filipino protesters on the streets of Vancouver, Canada. The protesters did not hold back—directly calling her a liar, among a flurry of pejoratives. At a press conference this week, Castro deliberately spun a question from a reporter to make it look like Mabanta was spreading fake news about the First Family. However, PGMN has never once spread fake news about anyone. Moreover, although the PGMN Anchors are allowed to say whatever they want themselves, PGMN as a company itself has long made the strategic editorial decision to never attack President Bongbong Marcos, Vice President Sara Duterte, or Mayor Leni Robredo—a decision further concretized after Romualdez framed Mabanta in a fake extortion plot prompting PGMN to declare war exclusively against one enemy: Romualdez. This week at a Malacañang press conference, Castro was asked this question by a reporter: "Last week PGMN founder Franco mabanta posted a lengthy video. He apologized to the President and the First Lady for the past criticisms na ibinato ng PGMN against them and kasama rin din po doon yung kanyang paratang that Former Speaker Martin romualdez orchestrated the rift between the president and the vice president and also betrayed many of his political allies, including president Marcos. Your take on this?" Claire Castro responded: "Ang paghingi ng paumanhin ay pag amin ng kamalian. Ang pag amin ng kamalian papaano nila masasabi sa tao na totoo ang kanilang kwento taong aral dito. Wag gumawa ng intriga lalo na kung walang basehan. Ang pag iingay ng walang saysay ay nagiging biktima lamang ang mga Pilipino na walang malay. At ang paninira na walang basehan ginagawa lang na mangmang ang ating mga kababayan so iwasan ang mang intriga kung gagawa kayo ng anumang pag iimbestiga siguraduhin lamang ninyo na kayo ay may mga ebidensya. Hindi kailangan daanin sa pamilya. Hindi kailangan daanin kung saan saan kung mayroon kayong ebidensya, sampahan niyo na agad ng kaso." This entire answer from Castro was completely taken out of context. And was obviously perverse in intent. Mabanta did not apologize for criticism that never happened. Mabanta was apologizing for "feelings that had been hurt in the past", when he worked for the then-future First Couple back in 2017-18. A gesture that Mabanta felt was both "necessary" and "sincere" after having parted ways eight years prior. Instead of addressing the gesture truthfully, Castro twisted the message to supply ammunition for the hideously dishonest Romualdez camp, trying to make it look like Mabanta and PGMN's comprehensively accurate exposés against the former Speaker were fabricated. Planting loaded questions via corrupt reporters to be answered in a corrupt way by corrupt spokespersons while coordinating with corrupt media outlets to subsequently report a lie is a common practice in politics for governments around the world. Often this scheme is planned in the dark, without the knowledge of the principal.

1/2 🚨TOXIC DDS RED TAGGING QUEEN LORRAINE BADOY TARGETED ME ON SMNI FOR EXPOSING HER LIES. NOW SHE’S SUSPENDED AND I’M VINDICATED. 👏👏👏 [Long read but oddly satisfying 😂] 1. I kept this clip because I knew I’d laugh out loud one day because the universe will prove I was right all along. It is incredibly satisfying to rewatch this clip now. Let’s talk about the SMNI hosts of disinformation: Lorraine Badoy — the unhinged, newly suspended red-tagging queen; and Jeffrey Celiz. 2. But let’s talk about Jeffrey Celiz first. This is the same toxic propagandist from Iloilo City who used to be a lackey for former Iloilo City Mayor Jed Mabilog (now DILG USec) before his name ended up on Duterte’s infamous narco-list as a major drug personality. When the political winds shifted, Jeffrey Celiz miraculously underwent a "rebranding" and crawled out of the woodwork with a fake name, Ka Eric Almendras. He became a self-proclaimed “CPP-NPA cadre" who peddles fake news and red tags everyone. But he is a FAKE CADRE through and through. He left Iloilo because the other personalities in the narco-list got assassinated and he had to re-invent himself to avoid EJK. He even lied in front of Sen. Tito Sotto and Sen. Ping Lacson at the Senate by saying he was a government /PDEA asset. Huh? Kumukuha ang PDEA ng ex NPA Cadre and patay gutom na propagandist as an asset? Huwag mo nga kaming gawing tanga! Everyone in Iloilo knows who you are! Source: 3. Toxic DDS Red Tagging Queen Lorraine Badoy was furious in this video because my 2023 FB post caught her red-handed misquoting the Supreme Court’s resolution in Zarate vs. Aquino. I called her out because she has consistently used this specific case to give herself the fake authority to red-tag anyone. Kaya sya UNHINGED sa red tagging nya because she was quoting an SC ruling to make the DDS brainless minions believe she was doing the right thing. Yun pala, hindi nya binasa ang kaso. And if she did, she obviously didn’t understand the case. 😂 4. BADOY'S OWN FABRICATED DOCTRINE Badoy repeatedly lied on SMNI and claimed the Supreme Court ruled that [falsely] identifying someone as a member of the CPP-NPA-NDF carries "NO DANGER." She literally fabricated her own legal doctrine out of thin air just to justify her actions, and then turned around on-air to whine that I was merely being "too literal." Well, ate girl, a Supreme Court ruling explicitly states what it means. If the SC did not say it, then it doesn’t exist. Imbento ka ng ruling mo? Since you quoted the SC said something that’s literally non-existent, that means you literally spewed fake news and disinformation to put many people’s lives in danger! 5. Badoy and this kapalmuks Jeffrey Celiz even tried to insult me on-air by saying I am not a lawyer. Bakit, lawyers ba kayo? Kung hindi lawyer walang superior comprehension skills sa binabasa? Appeal to authority yarn? Ikaw, Jeffrey Celiz, did you even graduate from WVSU? Patingin nga ng diploma mo! You even falsely claimed you went to and graduated from UP Diliman when you didn’t even pass the UPCAT! Butigon! Palamunin ka lang naman sa Iloilo ng mga pulitiko who relied on your toxic propaganda and wrong grammar statements on the radio, and you were even seen rubbing shoulders with the biggest drug lord, Melvin Odicta. Sadly, he is now dead due to EJK. Di ba that’s the reason umalis ka sa Iloilo dahil takot ka na ikaw ang susunod na ma un-alive? And they can only quote Atty Topacio: a performative DDS lawyer na mahilig sa press conference and doesn’t even have a stellar record of courtroom wins. [Continue reading…]

🚨 Rep. LUISTRO DARES TO ASK THE UNASKABLE🚨 Congresswoman Gerville “Jinky Bitrics” Luistro, unshaken and fearless, confronts former President Duterte in a gripping interpellation, seeking clarity and accountability for the war on drugs and its chilling legacy. Emphasizing his promise to take full legal responsibility, Luistro probes: What happened to the bodies buried in Laud Quarry? To the victims of the Davao Death Squad? To the lives lost in the 2004 Dumoy raid? Former President Duterte fires back, asking, "Where is your proof?" Luistro responds: "Mr. President, I’m anchoring my questions about these separate incidents from your initial statement—that you are taking full legal responsibility for all the victims of the war on drugs, both legal and illegal. You are a long-time prosecutor, and of course, it is fundamental among us all lawyers to uphold the requirements of due process." Duterte counters with: "We are zeroing in on a particular individual now." Luistro powerfully reminds: "Mr. President, due process is the law that hears before it condemns. Due process is the law that requires notice and hearing." The former president’s short rebuttal, "If you say so," leaves the air thick with tension. Luistro quips back with another gripping reminder: "Mister President, I hope that we will be reminded that by due process, THE END DOES NOT JUSTIFY THE MEANS." Congresswoman Luistro proceeds to present statistics on the war on drugs: - 6,252 individuals killed in police anti-drug operations as of May 2022. - 27,000 to 30,000 individuals killed, including vigilante-style executions. - 427 activists, human rights defenders, and grassroots leaders killed as of December 2021. - 166 land and environmental defenders killed as of December 2020. - 23 journalists and media workers killed as of April 2022. - 66 judges, lawyers, and prosecutors killed as of December 2021. - 28 mayors and vice mayors killed as of December 2021. Cong. Luistro then delivers the crucial question: "Mr. President, my question is: When you implemented the war on drugs, did you strictly comply with the requirements of due process?" With a firm and unwavering tone, former President Duterte responds, "YES." She continues, pointing out: "It is my humble submission that, contrary to the answer of the former president, I humbly believe that the war on drugs never complied with the requirements of due process. The statistics show the huge number of victims of the war on drugs. If my memory serves me right, during the Aquino administration, there were around 200 victims, and during the present administration, there are around 200 victims as well. Given these statistics, there are almost or around 31,000 victims. If indeed they followed the requirements of due process, there should not have been this many deaths. Instead, there should have been many cases pending in court. I hope that all of us are reminded by the fundamental law that no person should be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. It is the humble submission of this representation that the Quad Comm is ready to make a recommendation for the filing of the necessary actions in court for violations of RA 9851—an act defining and penalizing crimes against international humanitarian law—or, at the very least, for murder cases as defined under the Revised Penal Code." The Interpellation Intensifies To conclude her interpellation, she delivers a series of no-holds-barred questions: Luistro: "Mr. President, three Chinese drug lords were killed at the Davao Penal Colony. Are you willing to take accountability and responsibility for this?" Duterte: "Wala ako sa Davao, nandito na ako sa Manila." Luistro: "Are you saying no?" Duterte: "If gusto mong isali yan, idagdag mo, ok lang." Luistro: "How about the death of General (Ret.) Barayuga? Are you willing to take full legal responsibility for this?" Duterte: "No, I do not kill generals." Luistro: "The death of Mayor Parojinog and the 15 others in Ozamiz City. Are you taking full responsibility for this?" Duterte: "Hindi ako nagpapatay ng mga mayor, ma’am." Luistro: "The death of Mayor Espinosa of Albuera, Leyte. Are you taking full responsibility for this?" Duterte: "That is my birthplace." Luistro: "The death of Mayor Toni Halili of Tanauan City?" Duterte: "Malayo yan sa akin, ma’am." Luistro: "The death of Mayor Perez of Los Baños?" Duterte: "Lalo na." A Riveting Ending Luistro fires back: "If you are denying all these, alin po yung tinutukoy niyo when you said you are taking full responsibility for all the victims of the war on drugs, both legal and illegal?" The former president mumbles in response: "Yes, kasi order ko kasi yung, that is my campaign against drugs. Alam mo maraming estasyon, maraming police. Kung nagkaleche-leche doon, hindi ako maghuhugas ng kamay. Of course, nagkamali sila. If there is an appropriate action na gusto niyong ilabas, then file a case in court. I’m challenging anybody or everybody who makes the accusation, whether it is really true or not—maybe true—file the case in court, because may korte tayo. Even if I admit na totoo yan, because I will make the admission there again." Luistro counters: "Are you saying, Mr. President, when you go to court, you are willing to admit accountability for all the deaths during the war on drugs?" Duterte replies: "Of course, may abogado ako, ma’am. Kung ano ang sasabihin ng abogado ko, susunod ako." Luistro presses further: "I hope that everything you said before the Quad can be reduced in writing so that truly we can believe that you are taking full legal responsibility for all the victims of the war on drugs, both legal and illegal. Because as lawyers, we believe that by extrajudicial confession, we have to put that in writing, Mr. President." Duterte responds: "...It’s a policy of government or the president. Hindi ako maghuhugas ng kamay..." The Final Question Luistro asks: "If one of these days the ICC will come, will you voluntarily submit yourself?" Duterte retorts: "Sipain ko pa sila, ma’am." Luistro reminds him: "But you said a while ago, that if somebody will sponsor your fare to the ICC, you will voluntarily submit yourself to their investigation and jurisdiction." Duterte replies: "Yes, pero kung sila pumunta dito, sipain ko." Luistro clarifies: "But will you confirm that you are willing to voluntarily submit yourself to the ICC?" Duterte firmly states: "Oo, punta ako doon, sipain ko din sila." A Gripping Conclusion Luistro ends her interpellation with grace and precision: "I have nothing further. Thank you, Mr. President." In this powerful exchange, Congresswoman Luistro demonstrates fearless leadership and unwavering commitment to truth and accountability, leaving no question unanswered in her pursuit of justice. #LargaLuistro2025
