@realDonaldTrump Did these same people also storm the US Capitol to kill upon your command on January 6, 2021, Donald Trump? No! And you yourself is a leader of a terrorist and fascist organization: the MAGA movement. (Albeit you're not the smartest one - fortunately or unfortunately.)

@ABSCBNNews Principle of Reciprocity: Filipino tourists need to apply for a Chinese visa to visit China. Conversely, Chinese tourists must apply for a Philippine visa to visit here. Lagyan naman natin ng boundaries ang Filipino hospitality. Konting self-respect naman.

@rapplerdotcom Yes, I'm a bit ruffled but I'm not in a condemnatory mood. Our Catholic Church must be confident enough to let this pass. And Michelangelo's nude figures are still mostly preserved in the Sistine Chapel. Let's talk about social sin that Ama Namin truly disapproves, e.g., plunder.

@RyanLingo_ "Puro kabobohan ang mga tanong kaya deserving lang na sagutin ng kabobohan din." Bale aminado ka na kabobohan ang mga sagot ni VP Sara Duterte - bise presidente pa man din. Eh kung ang turo sa'yo ng nanay mo ay katigan at gayahin ang ganyang pag-uugali, eh di wow!

@ItsJamMagno Dami mo pang sinabi kasi jammed ang utak mo: May hearing sa budget ng OVP kasi may due hearing dapat para sa budget ng OVP. Tumatagal lang kasi di makasagot ng diretso si VP Sara Duterte. (Parang sina Alice Guo at Cassandra Ong lang.)

My 2013 poem on the aftermath of Typhoon Haiyan, published in “Awake in the World: Riverfeet Press Anthology 2017,” mentions “the omen of another violent trespassing.” Now, I dedicate this poem to the victims of Typhoon Odette. RIP. @blackboughpoems #TopTweetTuesday @soopoftheday

@KafosoMo I'd like to give Papa P the benefit of the doubt. If it's a film adaptation of "The Conjugal Dictatorship" or "Days of Disquiet, Nights of Rage," then do it! But if it's another fascistic propaganda film that romanticizes/deodorizes/revises the Marcos Sr. regime, he shouldn't. 🚫

Hello! For this @TopTweetTuesday with our host @Ammonites_Stars , a poem I shared on social media more than two years ago (January 6, 2020). The text was originally superimposed on a photo of an art print. The artwork is great, but here it is now "only" as black letters on a page.

After listening to the speeches of #KaLeody and other working class leaders, we managed to break through the first barricade. Fortunately, no one got hurt -- neither from our side, #MayoUno2022 celebrators, nor the police force's. Unfortunately, we were blocked from Mendiola. ✊
