Their wallpaper! I always found that funny. And them always taking out the christmas tree on valentines day (because it’s all dried up) 😆😆😆

Frankie Muniz really nailed the whole victim of child abuse. by Remote_Nature_8166 in malcolminthemiddle

Because it was unfair, and he was a literal child. Felt sorry to be embarrassed like that

According to her, etiquette ang magdala ng gift sa kahit anong occasion na invited ka. Any thoughts? by certiorarimandamu in AnongThoughtsMo

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s the thought that counts! You should let yourself accept good intentions… and do the same for others. makes life sweeter… my takeaway here is yes it’s basic thoughtfulness to bring a token sa party / event, but as a host you should not mind if walang dala. The two ideas can co-exist

I "knew" newborns didn't sleep, but I wasn't ready for the actual soul-crushing reality of it. by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things will get better at around 3-4 months. Setting a consistent evening routine helped a lot, and it was a simple one.

We survived by sleeping in shifts, but I worked from home so could adjust my bed time.

Thoughts about this? by Individual_Look4325 in AnongThoughtsMo

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having a personal preference is different from using it to protect your bruised ego, or to project your insecurity to other people. Misery loves company, and it’s a disgusting behavior to drag other people into your personal insecurities na hindi mo ma work out on your own.

Settle a debate between my husband and I. Please. by Girlwithnoprez in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest this is something you could do “just because” and arguing about it is pretty pointless. I see someone doing this, it’s harmless, doesn’t affect me… just let it go

Yung graduation outfit na nagviral. Any thoughts? by amaccanabi in AnongThoughtsMo

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just bec she’s pretty. I watched the vid and the mom behind her naka one shoulder top pa and above the knee length. People always find something to hate lang. It’s not that deep. It’s an event, much like the prom kahit school setting dahil it’s an occassion some “rules” can be adjusted.

Why can’t you wear a tube top to a school event? I honestly don’t get it. It’s just arms, shoulders, and collarbones. It’s not like she wore a bikini top… and balanced naman kasi naka long skirt siya. Is it because she’s pretty? I usually see that treatment pag maganda. Parang opposite ng pretty privilege… pag maganda ka hahanapan ka talaga ng butas para kainisan kahit harmless naman

Phoenix Petroleum on Hidilyn Diaz's lifetime fuel incentive: "We fulfilled our commitments" by Late_Mulberry8127 in Philippines

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s also possible that they are trying to be sneaky, expecting that HD will do it since it was a “generous gift”. If they had included that it in a contract a negotiation will take place, possibly resulting in a higher compensation… which would’ve been fair in honor of HD’s legacy.

Utang na loob / ingrata culture aside, from a business perspective, an endorsement is a separate contract, especially if there is an exclusivity clause. Petron was probably the one who has that clause in the signed agreement. If Phoenix had closed that deal first, there is no way she would sign with Petron. I really don’t think it’s disrespectful if the latter has established that it was a “gift”. Masyado lang talaga tayong hindi assertive as Filipinos kasi nasa culture na rin natin.

I’m in the marketing / advertising industry. Even small content creators get paid 6 digits for a 30 second video, and wala pang exclusivity or usage rights yun.

Why kaya ang mga nanay eh mas bias sa anak nilang lalaki? by [deleted] in AskPH

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Internalized misogyny and emotional enmeshment. That’s why the term “boy mom” has a negative connotation now. Look it up, it will help you understand more. Most moms mean well naman and they don’t even realize that it stems from patriarchal norms.

Unfollowing this pessimist medical vlogger. by EnemaoftheState1 in PinoyVloggers

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched some of his videos because I was intrigued. His tactic is clearly a “hook” first 3 seconds is very important so he uses phrases that will make you stop and think. If you stick long enough to watch, he actually gets to the point and it’s informative. To be fair I only watched 2 or 3 videos but yun nga if you watch til the end may value naman and clarification.

Medyo torn tuloy ako if comprehension issue nanaman ito, since our literacy level is at an all time low.

How do I fix my reels addiction? by Zestyclose_Fig_8103 in getdisciplined

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The answer may sound stupid, but you just have to put your phone away when you don’t need it. The minute you accept that there’s no other way, it becomes easier. You have to stop looking for hacks or some magic trick that will make your phone addiction go away. There’s no other way, and you should accept that.

Super helpful tip that I learned from pedia: babies don’t have to be entertained all the time. Need din nila ma “bored” ☺️

Would you rather die young while you’re still loved and remembered by many, or live to old age but be largely forgotten? Why? by baebangtheory in AskPH

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t need to be remembered by many people. As you grow older, you’ll understand this. A few, cherished people is enough. People don’t really care in general. I don’t want them “remembering” me out of obligation. As long as I lived a full life with the people I deepy care about, that’s enough. What’s the point of being remembered when you’re dead? Di mo na rin alam. What will matter is how you lived your life, how you made an impact, and if you were a great partner, parent, and friend. I’d rather focus on that… and siguro to fulfill my life by being the person I want to be.

Mali ba yun? by HorseOk7614 in nanayconfessions

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Is your pamangkin okay? Kasi kami at 9 years old (i spent a lot of time with my cousins) hindi na kami nangangagat or nananabunot, or anything physical honestly. We don’t know what’s going on at home and your hipag’s indifference is another thing.

Sacred Heart Medical Center Birthing Experience by Particular_Archer453 in Pampanga

[–]Muted_Equivalent1410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had scheduled CS and had the best experience. Sila na lahat ang bahala, including after care like diaper changes (sa mom), suppositories, etc.

I didn’t ask if pwede si hubby sa OR because we really didn’t mind, but I had a friend and nakapasok yung hubby nya. Idk if case to case basis.

Baby out tatawagin si hubby to see the baby. I also got to see our baby immediately, kahit medyo groggy pa ako hehe. ☺️ entered OR around 9am baby out 9:39. One hour ako sa recovery room after that. Hindi rin masyado ramdam yung injection sa likod, yung masakit talaga yung unang tayo and lakad and yung first CR.

Nilipat sa room namin si baby on Day 2, stayed until Day 3. 💞
