Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Akala ko naman may gumawa na ng PH-centric instance. HAHAHAHA!

Gagawa pa naman sana ako ng account dun had it been the case (not that I'm making it my main, but who knows).

Nakita ni mama at tita ang itty bitty tattoo ko and they already had this horrified expression. As usual, I just shrug those kinds of reactions off. With all due respect, not your body.

What does the tattoo mean? Lol, I just like it, there's seriously no deep meaning πŸ˜† I just wanted to experience getting a tattoo and I didn't pick anything I'd regret in the future. Yung isa pa nga based sa random suggestion nung isang redditor dati.

And they definitely haven't seen the bigger one or know my future plans of wanting to get a bigger one than that hehehe. The body is a canvas and I want to put some art in it. What if I get exiled? How exciting. Chz.

Tapos ang lala daw ng tan line at ang itim ko na (ibang tao naman 'to). Yeah, that's what happens kapag pabalik-balik ka sa beach doing fun activities. Next location ko sa bundok naman, then back to the ocean πŸ€”

Way younger me would be insecure and stop all of those. Mas maganda maputi, mas malinis walang eme, mas ok puro cardio lang bc gaining muscles is for men and insert fear of looking too masculine ganon. There's also the obsession of losing weight, too.

It's nice not to mind everything and just do what you want. Nung nagawa ko yung gusto I find that whatever insecurities I had wala na kasi masaya na ako. Who cares? I got things to do and places to be. Ako naman din bahala if I'm going to put weight in their words or not. I like to think my judgement has gotten better, at least.

I should definitely invest in more sun protective clothes, tho. Mahirap na ma-sunburn. I also like my tan and tan lines. It reminds me of fun and peacefulness that I experienced. God forbid I think of that as an ugly thing.

It's just me. I'm just Ken. You are kenough.

Wala na bang Tomi? Or hindi lang sya nai-stock sa grocery? Ilang buwan ko na sya hinahanap sa grocery, laging walang stock. πŸ˜”

Tomi corn snack

I usually find these nowadays at a 7-11 but I realized you're right, it's a lot harder to find and might be gone.

I hope not, I loved this when I was a kid.

Meron pa naman ako nakikita sa Puregold.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Pwede na ba magdala ng reusable bag sa Puregold? Hina-harang kasi sya dati. πŸ˜”

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Sa malapit samin pwede naman esp pag Wednesdays. (Province pala yung branch kaya may plastic bags pa rin sila).

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

hi guys, balak ko bumili ng phone sa amazon US (pixel) yun mumurahin below 10kphp para wala tax. May nakasubok na ba sanyo? Gusto ko rin install ng graphene or custom rom

Meron bang instance na di nagdedefederate ng ibang instances and hindi rin na-dedefederate ng bigger instances?

It's so annoying na yung mga communities na finfollow ko are in various instances that have defederated each other.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

You can use this list to determine which instance blocks the least instances (BI close to zero), and at the same time, blocked by the least number of instances (BB close to zero).

A value of BI close to zero that may indicate that the instance admins use defederation as a last resort. At the same time, a value of BB close to zero could indicate a trusted instance. You can then inspect the instance's instances page (such as this one for lemm.ee) to see which instances it blocks.

There's also this tool that shows you which instances are federated or blocked from one another.

I say after all that though, that lemm.ee is a good place. However, sh.itjust.works is notable among the larger instances to refrain from blocking any instances.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I recommend lemm.ee too!

Masarap ba sa Mendokoro Ramen? May food truck pala dito until August 6.

Edit: Tried it. I liked it better than Nagi.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

How was it? Ippudo level? Or Hanamaruken? The wife always brings it up whenever a trip to Ikea is planned, but we never get the chance to do it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Pretty good. I really liked the broth and the texture of the noodles. Haven't tried Ippudo or Hanamatuken yet tho, so I can't compare to them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Sa friend group namen, ako lang ang may mas prefer Ippudo vs Mendokoro. Tastes great, pero masyadong savory yung tonkotsu broth ng Mendokoro for me, to the point na umay sya.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I generally prefer Mendokoro over Ippudo but it is also much richer compared to most ramens. Marami akong kilala nauumay sa Mendokoro. Their gyoza is probably the best here though.

Man am I really not inspired to work recently. I mean, I do my work, just not driven to actually "work hard". Yeah, I know I'm a lazy bum and I'm working because it pays the bills, primarily. But man, it's like all I do now is to work eat and sleep. If this really is the routine of life then I'd rather just let go of it all. What an unwelcoming society this is. Kills interests and creativity and forces people down a path like forcing a square peg through a round hole. Sometimes I envy the people who have completely let go of their sanity and gave in to their "crazy". Thinking and trying to fit in somehow is such a pain. Survival hurts.

burn out ba? me too, sa sobra pagod parang cycle na lang. Ano job sector mo?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

it's not work burn out per se but it could be life burnout in general, idk for sure

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

TIL that Radson Flores's (Mark of Voltes V: Legacy) family owns Tipas bakery. Yes, the hopia maker.

Good morning Philippines!

Nawa'y magpakita na ang araw. Parang awa niyo na mga bagyo. Magdadalawang linggo na

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Kailan kaya titigil ang ulan? Kailan kaya sisikat ulit ang araw? Mapupuno na ng molds ang apartment ko, sobrang saturated na ng lupa. Ang dami nang napahamak ng panahon ngayon. Pero ayaw ko din lang naman na sobrang init ng panahon.
