Dear fellow #fedizens, especially #filipino ones - please take time to sign the petition against fossil fuel expansion in the center of marine biodiversity Verde Island Passage. We need to protect what's left of our #biodiversity.
순대 (soondae/sundae/sunde) is a type of Korean food made from innards and blood. The number one trigger for people with gout.
Here in the #Philippines we have something similar called #Dinuguan. A local food made from innards and blood.
So, similarly, when you visit the Philippines, avoid dinuguan if you have gout. If you still want to enjoy your vacation. 😋
As someone with gout, you need to be aware that #blood as food, and innards, is very common in many countries and cultures. Always ask, don't eat anything just because you don't want to be rude. Your #health and #fitness should be your number one concern.
Here in the Philippines, people will understand if you refuse. No one, let me repeat, no one, will take offence. We perfectly understand.
But if we do laugh because you refused, you should not take offence either. It's a friendly laugh, nothing else. We also laugh at each other if we don't like the taste of a certain food from a different region. Filipinos are just a happy bunch of diverse people.
Since my self-hosted Mastodon instance seems to have stabilized now, it's time for an #introduction! :ad:
I am Francis Rubio, a :bisexual_flag: web developer and designer from the #Philippines. I also created @antaresphdev to talk about web dev to #Filipino devs in #Tagalog
The #OrlandoMagic benched #KaiSotto and he didn't play a single minute in their game against the Pistons in the #NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. They lost 89-78. And now #Filipino Kai fans are mad at the Magic Twitter account for hyping Kai Sotto up only for the team not to play him.
Milking Filipinos for engagement = social media marketing 101
The #OrlandoMagic Twitter account milking the #KaiSotto engagement from Filipino fans desperate to have their very first homegrown Pinoy NBA player. The Magic plays the Pistons tomorrow in the Las Vegas Summer League.
NGL I want to see Kai get this. Show he's got real potential in these Summer League games, and hopefully get at least a 2-way contract.
Would be extremely cool to have a kababayan playing against the likes of LeBron and Curry.
One thing I realized when trying out Threads just now is how much I missed the Pinoy shitposting community. Shitposting in any other language I speak has never come close to doing it in #Filipino/#Tagalog.
[OPINION] #Courage has no #gender: On the phrase ‘Minsan, mas lalaki pa sa lalaki ang bakla’, "Sometimes, a LGBTQ person can be more masculine than a straight man."
we were at a #Filipino food festival today! I love bbq and longanisa, too bad they had run out of latter one though. Instead, I got a halo-halo and an empanada.
Hello! Bago ako rito! Ito ang Antares Programming, isang project para mas mapadali ang access ng mga Pilipino sa mga learning materials tungkol sa web development. Karamihan sa mga pino-post namin ay mga infographics sa #Filipino tungkol sa #HTML, #CSS, at #javascript.
Maintained by a #Pinoy, @teacherbuknoy. Nagpo-post din ako ng videos sa YouTube, and soon on Peertube!
Hi! New instance, new #introduction :ablobwob: I'm Kal, a queer filipino with chronic Just-A-Lil-Guy-ism. If I must be perceived I'd like to be thought of as "good uncomplicated company", but honestly I might be unhinged? I'm prone to making text walls and playlists when I have brainrot. I enjoy talking to new people about the things we care about, and I love to rage as much as I love to hope.
Expect a lot of boosting, personal blubbering, and fandom excitement.
MANILA, Philippines — Manila and Beijing were “making some progress” toward a breakthrough in resolving their dispute over China’s annual fishing ban in the South China Sea that had been
The Philippines has started the rollout of bivalent vaccines against COVID-19. Health workers and senior citizens who received second booster shots four to six months ago are eligible for the initial rollout of bivalent jabs.

@teacherbuknoy I have a #hypothesis that back then there was no distinction between #ng and #nang in #Tagalog. Ng was just an #abbreviation of nang to save on ink and space on precious paper. I came up with this idea from noticing that old texts put a #tilde on the ng similar to how old #Spanish texts put a tilde on q to mean que. There were also tildes on mga but sometimes they spelled mga as manga without the tilde. #history#Philippines#Filipino#linguistics
