aqua_synonym,

Was watching economic news lately, and NEDA had said that we are on track to becoming an upper middle income country. I could not believe it then I realize that our Gini coefficient’s to blame HAHAH too much income inequality.

Hope our economic planners could do something about our country’s wealth gap, though I think that if there’s something they could have done, they would have done it ages ago.

Seems like my lemm.ee account cannot see this RD. I wonder why. Baka hindi lang nagsync yung dalawa.

Anyway, bagong hyperfixation: fiscal policies ng bawat Philippine president.

Flat Earth. I’m astonished how many people close to me still believes that the Earth is flat and that we are prohibited from falling off by an ice wall at the edges.

Anyway, I’ve been through a conspiracy theorist phase myself (cringe, I know) so I can’t really say I’m better than them.

TIL that “Ped Xing” means “pedestrian crossing”. I’ve always thought it was a translation of “pedestrian lane” for Chinese people BABAHABAHAHAHAHA

Marahay na hapon man po saimo!

Not wishing anyone something bad to happen to them, but I wonder when would Lemmy solve its first internet case or have its first ARG

aqua_synonym,

Why can’t our government enact a law that limits car ownership to those with a dedicated parking space? There are multiple cars here that take up sidewalk space and if sinita mo sila, ikaw pa yung mali kasi andami naman daw puwedeng pagtuunan ng pansin, yung kotse pa nila.

Finally finished Food Wars up to the fourth season!

With the recent Oshi No Ko debacle on incest, now I’m trying to rationalize society’s unfavorable opinion on incest. What element in incest makes it bad? If both people love each other romantically, is of the right age and neither was coerced into doing so, then what right does society have to keep them apart?

Okay, someone may argue that the same bloodline can cause genetic deformities and disorders in their offspring. I get that (Hapsburg jaw is a thing after all). But if that’s the case, then shouldn’t we also frown upon getting together with people with inheritable diseases (i.e., heart disease, cancers, diabetes), genetic disorders, or harmful lifestyles (i.e., cigarette smoking) that increase the risk of offspring suffering due to those inherited ailments/disorders? AAAAAAHHHH

Now I can’t seem to find how incest is objectively and morally harmful to society. Does anyone know a strong argument against it?

Hmm…online mobile games? Guys my age play CODM or Mobile Legends or Valorant or something along those lines, but I am barely interested in what they are doing. I’ve played my fair share of online games, though they all were at either my laptop or at an internet cafe PC. Never on my phone. In fact, the only things I can remotely call a game in my phone is a Morse Code Koch trainer, a kanji practice app, and a Reversi/Othello game.

Hmm, I can talk about the entire Cold War. From the Acheson-Lilienthal Plan which led to the Baruch Plan whose rejection sparked the Cold War arms race to the 1970s detente to Reagan’s “MR. GORBACHEV, TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!”, I can talk about it with only minor stops. Oh, isama na din yung more obscure proxy wars during the period such as the chess wars (Soviet school of chess, Karpov, Kasparov, Fischer) and yung Transfermium Wars (Dubna Institute, UCLA-Berkeley, CERN)

I’ve found another nostalgia-invoking anime song, which is Snow Halation from the anime Love Live! School Idol Project. S1E2 palang ako so I have to restrain myself from playing it on repeat or else I’ll diminish the significance and ruin the experience for me when I get to the Snow Halation scene, whenever that is.

Solo camping! I was always fascinated by survivalist lifestyles and with my recent watching of Yuru Camp (btw, definitely an anime I can recommend if you like slice of life), well my interest in it was bolstered. Wala din kasing medyo magandang camping spots dito. Yung camping spots mostly are for hikers, which technically is in the same vein but I don’t like walking up gravity that much.

Actually, knowing Aka Akasaka, he probably is just stirring the audience. But knowing the manga (which is famous for being no-holds-barred on controversial stuff), I also think he’s serious. Honestly I’m kinda puzzled.

spoilerNonetheless, I like the Oshi No Ko manga very much that the incest route is the least of my worries (honestly, I’m more worried because Akane, Kana, and Mem haven’t appeared in quite some time). I’m worried na nasaksak na sila ni Hikaru Kamiki

Does the Data Privacy Act of 2012 have the same powers as the GDPR or CCPA in that it will compel companies and corporations to delete data from users in Philippine territory?

When I was making my Lemmy username, I was reminded of Oshi No Ko and KonoSuba so I went with the name "Aqua". As for the "synonym" part, I saw a Red Skull meme saying that the word "synonym" has no synonym - now I know there is actually a synonym for "synonym" (that's poecilonym)

aqua_synonym,

I am watching DanMachi today and boy am I glad it doesn't go full Naofumi way where Hestia Familia has no friends or allies. I am just so glad there are the gods Miach and Takemikazuchi

aqua_synonym,

No-lemm Me Tangere or El Phi-Lemm-busterismo

aqua_synonym,

I placed these animes because they are slice of life-y, though personally I admit that I threw in JJK there because I thought that the Asobi Asobase Occult Club (composed of only two members) would be too small compared to the others

aqua_synonym,

Malicious compliance. Reddit basically said, "if you don't open the sub, we'll remove you from moderating". r/pics said, "yeah, we're opening it but you did not specify how". They made a poll in their community whether to stay the same or to post sexy pics of John Oliver. Overwhelmingly, their community picked the latter and now we have that

aqua_synonym,

As much as I am a fan of Spy x Family and Violet Evergarden, they are more for more mature audiences as they have quite the adult themes. Violet Evergarden is set in a war world and although the story is not set in the war itself, the flashbacks (especially THAT scene during the attack on the fortress) are nonetheless too violent.

Spy x Family might seem like a wholesome family anime but it has underlying political and war themes. Bond's arc as well as Yor's assassination techniques in Ep 2 is something that I would not really recommend to a nine year-old kid. There's car explosions and use of dogs for warfare
