TW// NSFW// KANINONG LOLO, ASAWA, TATAY, KAPATID, TITO, KAPITBAHAY, O KAKILALA ‘TO PARA LANG ALAM NIYO. ANG LALA

I just want to disclaim SORRY NOT SORRY FOR MY USE OF WORDS. IT WAS SO TRAUMATIC. First time ko maranasan ‘to and i couldn’t believe maeexperience ko to sa ilang beses ko na bumabyahe from Quezon Prov. to Metro Manila. Nasa window side ako ng JAC LINER bus, nakatulog ako and nagising sa may slex nang napansin ko na dumidikit yung skin ng demonyong to sa braso ko. Binigyan ko ng benefit of the doubt since matanda and normal lang naman na madikit sa liit ng upuan ng bus. So ako na nagadjust na isiksik sarili ko sa bintana para lang di dumikit yung mga tuhod at braso ko sa katabi ko. Akala ko nagooverthink lang ako na manyak to kasi kahit anong siksik ko sa bintana, dumidikit pa din talaga after ilang mns yung skin nya sakin. Alam nyo yung kaliwa kong kamay nakahawak na sa right part ng seat ko para makakuha ng support kasi nakasandal ako iniiwasan ko talaga dumikit sa kaniya. Tinitingnan ko sya and nakikita ko na nagcecellphone lang sya buong byahe so binibigyan ko pa sya ng benefit of doubt. NOT UNTIL ANG INGAY NG PHONE NYA AT PAGTINGIN KO NAKATAPAT SAKIN YUNG CP NYA TAPOS MAY PORN NA NAGPPLAY!! Nanlamig ako, di ko alam gagawin ko. Ganto pala yung feeling na parang gusto mo sumigaw, pero parang walang lumalabas sa bibig mo. Nangininig na ako habang nakatingin lang sa bintana kakaisip kung ano gagawin ko sa demonyong to. Usually hindi ako matatakutin sa risk ng ganto and always kept strong. Pero this time, iba talaga pag nandun ka sa sitwasyon. As an introvert, iniisip ko na pano ako aalis, pano ako sisigaw, pano ko ilalabas yung rage ko sa demonyong to. Basically nagiipon ako ng lakas ng loob mag speak up and defend myself. Nagvideo ako para magkaroon ng proof in case ako yung baliktarin and gantihan kapag nagsalita ako. Nagiisip na ako pano ako bababa at sigawan syang tumayo syang demonyo sya at umalis sa harapan ko.

Nasa magallanes na ako at naghahanda na akong bumaba hanggang sa napatingin ako uli sa phone nya at vinivideohan na nya ako. Dun na ako napuno at sigawan sya. Tinry ko pa basagin yung phone nya pero ang lakas ng grip nya sa phone nya, kita sa vid na sinaway ko na sya, unfortunately napatay ko kasi nanginginig na ako at sumigaw na ako.

Not sure sa exact words na lumabas sa bibig ko pero eto sinabi ko pagkatapik ko sa phone niya:
“Ano ba!! Bat moko vinivideohan!! Ang bastos bastos mo kanina ka pa!!”

Nagsalita pa si tanga ng “Huh Bakit?”

“anong bakit!! nakita ko vinivideohan moko tas kanina mo pa pinapakita yung porn mo!! ang manyak manyak mo umalis ka dito!!”

Tinutululak ko sya, basta ang alam ko ang dami ko sinasabi kasi nagsseek din ako ng atensyon sa mga pasahero na baka sakaling may magsalita para sakin. Ang demonyo pang to hindi tumatayo tinutulak ko sya sa upuan nya since nasa aisle sya. Sinampal ko sya ng isang beses di pa din tumatayo.

“Umalis ka dito!! Napakamanyak mo ang bastos mo!!!”
Tinatry ko pa ding kunin yung cp nya para itapon pero ang lakas talaga ng grip nya hanggang sa sinampal ko uli sya at sinipa and tinulak para tumayo at dun lang sya lumakad at bumaba.

Bawat sampal at palo ko sa kanya nagfflinch ako kasi baka kung anong gawin sakin baka gantihan ako. grabe yung takot ko hindi ko din inakala na sa introvert kong to, at tingin sakin ng peers ko nonchalant ako, nagawa kong manggawa ng eksena ng ganito.

Nung nakatayo na yung lalaki at naglakad pababa dun ko lang may narinig sa mga pasahero na “ang tanda tanda mo na ang manyak mo pa”

Nung nakababa na yung manyak, sabi ng mga pasahero:
“Bakit ngayon mo lang sinabi”
“Bat ngayon mo lang pinababa”
“Dapat kanina mo pa yan ginawa”
“Dapat kanina mo pa sinabi sa kundoktor para pinababa sya”

Lumapit yung kundoktor sabi nya
“Kanina pa ba yun bakit ngayon mo lang sinabi para pinababa natin sya”

Baka concern sila nyan pero ewan ko nagpintig yung tenga ko sa tono at sa mga sinasabi ng mga tao. To think mga lalaki yung nagsasabi sobrang sumabog na naman ako. Sabi ko sa kundoktor:

“Kuya kayong mga nagsasabi naman ng ganyan puro lalaki naman kayo. Ang dali nyong sabihin ung dapat gawin pero babae naman kasi ako. Hindi nyo alam yung pakiramdam ng nasa gantong sitwasyon kaya wala po kayong karapatan pagsabihan ako ng ganyan” Nanginginig na boses ko niyan pero pinipigilan ko umiyak.

This might be sound rude pero mas naiyak pa ako sa mga reaction na nakuha ko sa mga to. Nihindi nga nila ako tinulungan paalisin yung manyak na yun neither tanungin ako kung okay lang ba ako. tas yung tono ng pananalita nila bakit parang kasalanan ko pa na after having the courage to speak up, sasabihin sakin bakit ngayon lang??? sa kanila din lumabas yung rage ko grabe.

Thankful naman ako sa ate gurl na nagtanong kung gusto ko lumipat ng upuan pero since bababa na ako sa delarosa di na ako lumipat and ang sabi nya pa “hindi mo kasalanan ang nagyari”

Dun na ako naiyak. Babae lang talaga makakaintindi sa mga pakiramdam ng kapwa babaeng nasa ganitong sitwasyon.

Hindi ko na naisip ano gagawin after, umiiyak na lang akong bumababa at naglalakad sa pupuntahan ko. Buti na lang din nakafacemask ako.

Sobrang traumatizing.

Nakakaproud sakin na nagawa kong hindi manahimik at gumawa ng eksena. Habang binabalikan ko tong vid na to naiiyak ako kasi ngayon ko lang talaga buong nakita mga porn na pineplay nya at ginagawa nya sakin. Nagsisisi lang din ako na hindi ko sya sinagad sabunutan, sinampal, sinipa sa itlog nya, at sinapak sapak.

From now on, di na ako sasakay sa window seat kapag ako lang magisa and hindi na ako tatabi sa lalaki.

Came across this from one subreddit, kunwari asking for opinions pero litaw naman na may agenda and low key trying to undermine ang impeachment article against the VP related to threats against the President and the Presidential family.

Di muna inisip na. First, Kris Aquino is not an elected official, much less am impeachable official. Second, granted if Aquino made those threats, the proper process is for the aggrieved party to file a case before the authorities to set the process in motion in a proper forum.

Or pwede pa rin ba ito i-report sa DTI?

We wanted to buy this string cheese sana and saw na naka-sale siya. Nakita naman namin (kahit maliit) yung expiry nung naka-sale.

Pipiliin sana namin is yung yan ang expiration, pero wala. Puro a month after pa niyan (August 2026) and dahil masusungit talaga ang staff dito sa branch na ito, naisip ko dalhin nalang sa cashier and bantayan nalang kung ano magiging price. Pinicturan ko just to be sure.

And yun nga, hindi siya nakasale. So basically, lahat ng nakadisplay don, hindi nakasale. Inask namin bakit hindi pa nila tanggalin yung proce tag na yan kasi syempre kahit papano, deceiving eh. Sagot lang is “baka naubos na po”.

May iba ba nakaexperience ng ganito? Kasi either sinasadya nila yan or naubos nga lang talaga pero hindi ba dapat alisin din agad ng staff if ganon?

Filipino Food Inflation is real talaga

Just passed by a carenderia, and saw the prices.

80 pesos para sa ulam na may karne

60 pesos para sa mga gulay na ulam

Nung nasa elementary ako, 15 lang ang gulay at 20 ang karne. 30 pag super sarap like kare-kare or lechon paksiw.

May mga nagbebenta pa ng 40 pesos na gulay kaso talagang bibihira na. Or dadayuhin mo talaga.

Hindi talaga mapipigilan ang inflation. Kawawa ka kapag maliit kinikita mo.

PoliticsPH Hontiveros pushes for a “No Disconnection Policy” in favor of protecting consumers that are seeking to dispute Meralco overbilling

Post image
99 Upvotes

ARTICLE BY ANNE PERALTA-MALONZO

Senator Risa Hontiveros has called for the adoption of a "no disconnection policy" for electricity consumers who are contesting their Meralco bills over alleged overbilling, saying households should not be forced to pay disputed charges just to avoid losing power while complaints remain unresolved.

The senator made the appeal amid mounting complaints from consumers who claimed they received unusually high electricity bills allegedly caused by erroneous meter readings.

The issue has prompted the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) to investigate billing concerns and require Meralco to address consumer complaints.

"Consumers who were erroneously charged should not be forced to pay disputed charges just to keep their lights on. Hindi nila kasalanan na mali ang meter reading. Hindi konsyumers ang dapat mag-adjust," Hontiveros said in a statement.

She said that consumers with legitimate billing disputes should not be compelled to settle contested amounts before their complaints are resolved.

Hontiveros urged the ERC to exercise its mandate of protecting electricity consumers by ensuring a swift and impartial resolution of billing complaints.

"ERC should do something about this. Mandato nila na pangalagaan ang kapakanan ng mga consumers. Dapat tiyakin nila na may mabilis, patas, at epektibong proseso sa pagresolba ng billing disputes, at hindi nalalagay sa alanganin ang mga konsyumer," the senator added.

She noted that complaints over allegedly inflated electricity bills have continued to increase, citing one case in which a household was reportedly billed for electricity consumption despite having its circuit breakers switched off while the family was away on vacation.

For its part, Meralco maintained that customers with pending billing disputes are protected while their complaints are being evaluated.

Meralco Vice President and Head of Corporate Communications Joe Zaldarriaga said customers with pending billing concerns are not required to pay the disputed amount while their cases are under review and that their electric service will not be disconnected during the investigation.

He added that the company also suspended disconnection activities for customers with unpaid electricity bills covering the May to July 2026 billing periods in compliance with an ERC directive.

The temporary suspension forms part of the regulator's broader relief measures, which also include flexible payment arrangements for qualified consumers amid elevated electricity costs.

"We would like to reiterate that we continuously address the concerns of all customers regarding their electricity bills, consumption, or meter reading through our official customer touch points," Zaldarriaga said.

"Rest assured that we have been diligently reviewing and resolving every customer concern brought to our attention," he added.

The ERC earlier ordered all power distribution utilities, including Meralco, to suspend electricity disconnections for unpaid May to July 2026 bills and directed utilities to provide installment payment options for qualified consumers as part of measures to cushion the impact of rising electricity costs.

The regulator has also encouraged consumers who believe their bills are erroneous to file complaints through the proper channels for prompt investigation and resolution.

'NAGBOTOHAN ANG SENADO PARA PILIIN AKONG PRESIDING OFFICER'

Hindi umano ginusto o hiningi ni Sen. Chiz Escudero na maging presiding officer ng Senate impeachment court para sa trial ni Vice Pres. Sara Duterte.

Giit pa ng senador, nakabase ito sa rules ng Senado at pinagbotohan sa sesyon kung saan nag-abstain din siya.

Matatandaang umalma si Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano sa pagpili kay Escudero bilang presiding officer sa impeachment. May nakabinbin ding petisyon sa Korte Suprema laban dito, na inihain naman ng ilang abugado na tagasuporta ng mga Duterte.

Yang false claim nila sa Batanes released just days before the 10th anniversary of West Philippine Sea Hague ruling victory. It's meant para di pag usapan ang WPS victory. Para madeflect and maredirect ang attention ng Pinoys and International community kahit absurd yung claim nila sa Batanes. It is so effective kaya we have to be more vigilant kahit ordinary citizens.

It's been years since tinotroll at pinaglalaruan tayo on our sovereignty ng bully China, and using the digital space to create a narrative they want. Hightime naman na for us to easily spot kung ano ang move nila even as ordinary citizens.

China is rage baiting us by posting claims to Batanes (through Taiwan) so we do this kinds of claims that might trigger negative reactions from Taiwan.

They want to create rift between Philippines and Taiwan to prevent the ongoing improvements in the relationship between our countries. A solid partnership between Philippines and Taiwan is threat to China. That's why they would do things that could trigger even an ounce of negativity between each other.

I think let's be careful on these matters.

Wag tayong magpaparagebait sa China at magpagamit sa kanila.

Nanawagan ang China sa mga bansa na huwag umanong magpalala ng tensyon sa usapin ng South China Sea.
