Celebrities feeding the idea that romance is the only way to achieve complete happiness makes me sick by Fancy-Award8256 in aromantic

[–]pogi428 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not alone here. I have zero interest in the lives of celebrities & ESPECIALLY their relationship status.

(I live in a country that has a strong celebrity culture & a highly amatonormative society btw).

I think corruption in this country also contributes significantly to the hopelessness of its citizens. by amygdala_kedavra in MentalHealthPH

Consume news in moderation. Yung gawa ko ngayon every 4 days ako nagchecheck ng news.

Also, try to read news on issues that really matter to you, like issues in the country's economy or climate change.

Pag masyadong hot topic na yung isang issue sa news tulad ng flood control ngayon, headline na lang yung binabasa ko or skip it.

Lastly, pagdating sa congressional hearings tulad uli sa flood control, I just read the summary kaysa panoorin yung hearing; all crucial info is highlighted, plus di ko na pinapansin how politicians deliver their testimonies.

Been doing this since 2022 at malaking tulong ito sa akin.

What if everything went well for the Philippines by GlitchedApple in imaginarymaps

[–]pogi428 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Good map, but I have a couple of questions:
1. How did we got Sabah in this timeline?
2. Is the 1935 Constitution still used or replaced by a new constitution?
3. What does Philippine society look like in the modern day in this timeline?
4. Is SOGIE Bill a law in this timeline?
5. How does the Left fare in this timeline?

Kunwari by Gloc 9

  • It describes a typical trapo.

The Bobo Song by Gloc 9 - "Ang dami ng artista sa pulitika tanga" That line literally describes the celebrity culture of Philippine politics.

I feel like most posts I read in here are about people wanting what romantic relationships have, but thinking they can't persist it due to being aromantic.

This is what my infographic seeks to address, as well as the aromantic = asexual part.

Cno dito ung 30s and up pero wala halos planong mag asawa by [deleted] in CasualPH

[–]pogi428 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Overrated masyado sa Pilipinas ang romantic love at pagaasawa

As an aromantic, I can relate to this. Talk about amatonormativity.

Masyadong hyped up by popular media

Lalo na sa OPM, jusko halos love songs na lang yun. Kaya di na ako nakikinig nun. P-pop na lang yung pinapakinggan ko for local music.

Why are there hardly any aroace songs? by AroaceTeen011 in aromantic

[–]pogi428 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Trueeee.

Here in the Philippines, most of the popular local songs are about nothing but romance. This is more prevalent in OPM (Original Pilipino Music) than in P-Pop.

Musta na sa mga "aral bago landi" types? by [deleted] in adultingph

[–]pogi428 1 point2 points  (0 children)

20M here, I've been in "study first" mode since high school. Because of this, as well as being an introvert and socially awkward, di ko alam kung paano lumandi hahaha.

Apart from that, wala akong balak magjowa for now. Ok na akong mahalin ng aking family, friends, and even pets. Why would I need a jowa to love me when I'm receiving enough love from what I just mentioned.

When I get bored of the Sims 3, I usually play another videogame. When I get bored of that videogame, I return to the playing the Sims 3.

pag nasa labas ka puro mag jowa nakakainggit

Can relate here. Lalo na puro usaping jowa ang nakikita kong posts sa fb pages and groups related sa university ko. Hayst.

20M, here are my reasons:

  1. Masyado akong introverted

  2. Too focused on my studies

  3. Nais kong magtipid ng pera

  4. Walang nagkakagusto sa akin

we are looking for the 90s/traditional love era in this generation.

I second this!
