Volleyball is becoming more popular in the PH. 17,834 fans trooped to the Araneta Coliseum for the PH's PVL semifinals games while 19,505 watched the UST-La Salle women’s Final Four clash at the Mall of Asia Arena.
Meanwhile, the PBA (PH pro men's basketball league) struggles to fill stadiums.
I'm working on a term paper about Filipino heritage expression and genealogy. One of the references I'm using, "Tracing Your Philippine Ancestors" by Lee W. Vance, was published in 1980. The only copy of it I can find is in the UP Diliman Main Library, and it's only for room use.
Does anyone here have any leads where I can find a copy that I can buy or browse for long periods of time?
So... I did a little side project. I missed translating stuff so I figured I'd translate my favorite #GenshinImpact song "La Vaguelette" into #Filipino. As I explain in the commentary that follows, I took a little bit of artistic liberty to make the translation fit the melody (spoiler alert: I also included a demo of me singing the song after translating it).
TIME Magazine noted PH President Marcos Jr. attempts to rehabilitate the name of Ferdinand Marcos Sr., and that his win in the elections was thanks to the "whitewashing" of his family's plunder of the country.
Remove the #POGO. But don't touch the students, especially those who have been studying here for a very long time without causing any problems. That's fucking #racist.
Why are the POGOs still here anyway? They contribute nothing but a climate of fear in the areas it touch both for us #Filipino locals and #Chinese visitors, and the Chinese government wants us to remove them anyway because those gambling hubs shelter their fugitive oligarchs. Are the taxes gained from these crime-ridden businesses really worth it? Just do the right thing goddammit :seija_coffee:
