Para sa akin, Ang kalayaan ay isa sa pinakamahalagang bagay na taglay ng bawat indibidwal. Ito ang nagbibigay daan upang makapamuhay tayo ayon sa ating sariling pagpapasya, makapahayag ng ating mga saloobin, at makamit ang mga pangarap natin. Subalit ang tunay na diwa ng kalayaan ay higit pa sa pagiging malaya mula sa control ng iba ito ay may kaakibat na pananagutan

Sa ating kasaysayan, napatunayan nating ang kalayaan ay hindi simpleng natatamoito ay pinaghihirapan at ipinaglalaban. Ang ating mga bayani tulad nina José Rizal, Andres Bonifacio, at Gabriela Silang ay nag-alay ng kanilang talino, lakas, at buhay upang makamit ang kasarinlan ng ating bayan. Ang mga sakripisyong ito ay paalala na ang kalayaan ay dapat gamitin para sa ikabubuti ng lahat, hindi lamang ng iilan.

Sa makabagong panahon, ang kalayaan ay may bagong mukha. Ito ay nakikita sa malayang pagpapahayag ng damdamin sa social media, malayang pagpili ng propesyon o relihiyon, at malayang paggalaw sa iba't ibang aspeto ng buhay. Ngunit kasabay ng kalayaang ito ay ang hamon ng pagiging responsable. Halimbawa, ang kalayaan sa pagpapahayag ay hindi nangangahulugang maaari nang magpakalat ng maling impormasyon o poot na nagdudulot ng pagkakawatakwatak.

Ang tunay na kalayaan ay may hanggananang respeto sa kalayaan ng iba. Hindi natin maaaring gamitin ang ating kalayaan upang apihin o hadlangan ang iba sa kanilang sariling karapatan. Ang malaya at makatarungang lipunan ay nakasalalay sa pagkakaisa at malasakit ng bawat isa.

any hcs on piri's name?

Gabriel Maliksi "Boy Kidlat" Magbanua y Bautista

I knowww. It's too on the nose to name him after women revolutionaries: Gabriela Silang and Teresa Magbanua, or to give him Bautista as a (former) surname, because he was baptized.

Now, Maliksi means speedy or agile. It's more common as a surname than a first name, I believe. Since I headcanon Piri to be born in the 1200s or 1300s, the other ethnolinguistic groups within the PH archipelago we know today just aren't sure what group he's supposed to represent (until 1521) and soon took him under their care, as a "messenger" of some sorts. One guardian would task him to deliver a message to another guardian about a war or conflict, and he delivers fast! Maliksi then became his name.

Antonio baptized him as Gabriel Bautista, and Gabriel is also the archangel who delivers messages. He takes Magbanua and adds Maliksi in his official papers upon his independence. He also had a comic and superhero phase with Alfred, and so he gave himself the nickname "Boy Kidlat" (or Lightning Boy). The older PH ethnolinguistic groups still call him Maliksi, and everyone else who can't pronounce his name goes with Gabriel or "Gabbie".

He's technically Gabriel Maliksi B. Magbanua now, but sometimes, he claims that the B stands for Boy Kidlat instead of Bautista.

Now, fem! Philippines would obviously be Gabriela Luningning "Neneng" Magbanua y Bautista, and Piri would tease her because of that song Neneng B (that's not very feminist of you, Piri)

((I would very much love to hear other Filipinos' thoughts on this!))

for the ask game- what's your favorite cocktail?

All sangria's are my favorite.

But if you want something specific: there's a bar in my city called Ounce Manila and they have a cocktail called Gabriela Silang, named after the Filipino revolutionary. It has siling labuyo and mango juice and a dried mango and several shots of Filipino rum in it. I drink at least 3 of those every time we visit that bar. I dream of it sometimes.

Inbox me (1) thing you want to know about me.

THE IRON LADY OF ASIA

1.)

Asia's city of love bestows rekindled hope, in a tone of femininity.

The birth of the next heroic Gabriela Silang,

Fearless Bird of Jove avow their majesty.

Throw the sword away: Farewell, lethality: die with dignity.

Oh, my dear, hail to the fieriest of them all!

2.)

She, the prominent, known as the Iron Lady of Asia,

Crowned among the most powerful women in the world, by Australia.

Politician fear her voice, she speaks with deadly wisdom,

Dispute the evils who rule our kingdom.

Oh, dear, hail to the fairest of them all!

3.)

Every step is fair, A livin' wanderer — a walking dictionary,

She always meets primary, never the secondary nor the tertiary,

Her brilliances never dwindle even 'till seventy,

Every one word she utters is a lesson, oh, she teaches equity,

Oh, dear, hail to the cleverest of them all!

4.)

The state's impudent losers envy every inch of her,

They try to bring her down : echoes of the indomitable laughter,

Queries reign in the hearing, attempting to shame her is a blunder

Her 30 legend books wave, what a great after,

Oh, dear, hail to the brightest of them all!

5.)

Firmly stands with loyalty, devotion, and allegiance to the nation,

She speaks words not to eat it, but to savor it with action,

Her Legacy lives with her, advocates of justice and reform

The principles she sails, couldn't destroy by any, even the thunderstorm,

Oh, dear, hail to the staunchest of them all!

6.)

She the queen of the law in the pearl of the sea of the orient,

The trees are dancing, rhythm of serenity,

smells the justice in her favorite scent,

she serves the government's trinity,

Oh, dear, hail to the noblest of them all!

7.)

A jurist, lawyer, author, scholar, and a stateswoman,

She bows to no one, she needs no man.

Land of Decadent, A Miscreants warriors, She loves it still.

Brawl for the right, She loves it still — and always will.

Oh, dear, hail to the dearest of them all!

8.)

Land that she idolized: She's on her knee for it, to breathe.

She'll never surrender the flag 'till her death.

Land that she loves : forgive the inhumane doings of the state

Oh, please, breathe, maybe it's not too late.

Oh, dear, hail to the fondest of them all!

9.)

Tort, inequity and unlawful, die for my country,

For the next generation, live them alone, live in cemetery,

Oh, barbarous leader, please surrender

Die, Cruelty. My land seeks for tender.

Oh, dear, hail to the meekest of them all!

10.)

She, the president we never had that we never had,

you're existence, we're more than glad.

Remember her name, not her fame,

Miriam, Oh the woman that you are,

Oh, dear, hail to the the Iron Lady of Asia!

[shadow-schemer]

I'm surprised they didnt pick Gabriela Silang for Civilization if the devs were just trying to fill the DEI quota. She's commonly depicted as a housewife with a sword on horseback leading her troops. Historically she fought against the British and the Spanish invasions.

Jose Rizal is more of a revolutionary in the social and intellectual aspect (because of the two novels he wrote). Andres Bonifacio is the one with the combative aspect of revolution.

Anyway I'm just glad Rizal is not a genderbent character in Streetfighter this time (laughs).

Adamson University Radiates in  Purple as it Celebrates Women's Month With its Theme "LILA: Kakayanan ng Kababaihan, Pinatutunayan"

Adamson University went all out by covering the entire Saint Vincent (SV) facade with a stunning purple light display on March 20, 2024. The theme, "LILA. Kakayanan ng Kababaihan, Pinapatunayan, was proudly showcased, highlighting the empowerment of women in today's society.

It emphasized the capabilities and potential of women, exhibiting their strength and resilience. The Adamson community displayed their unwavering support by dressing up in purple, symbolizing their admiration for the university's powerful message. The whole Adamson community stood together to break gender-based stigmas and discrimination while uplifting womanhood.

This kind of occasion serves as a beacon of positivity and inspiration for all who are part of the campus community. The Vice President for Academic Affairs (VPPA) Rosula Reyes emphasized during the ceremony the importance of putting a light on the shadows that women have been living in for a long time. She highlights that women are not confined in society's expectations, but can instead navigate their lives with their own ambitions and talents.

Reyes mentioned notable figures such as Gabriela Silang, an Igorot woman who fought for Philippine independence from Spanish rule, Lawalhati Bautista who wrote about the struggle and power within Filipino society in her novel Dekada 70 during the martial law era, and former vice president Leni Robredo who had shown exemplary leadership skills in politics and government while advocating for social justice. These women are recognized by the Adamson University community as role models of how women can thrive despite barriers and challenges.

Upon asking students who attended the event, Ramses Opeña, a first-year communication student shared his experience regarding the women's month celebration: "I found it very empowering the event war not just to empower woman actually it's a reminder that everyone has a place in the society. The event was empowering because despite being born a woman or a transgender, the Adamson University acknowledges woman by uplifting them as equal.

There is no doubt that Adamsonians had fun during the celebration and as Adamson University celebrates these kinds of events that empower marginalized sections of present-day society, this opens opportunities that will encourage a healthy environment within the university walls, to progress with the influence of positivity, respect, and peace with each other.

Who Are Our Modern Heroes?

In the Philippines, National Heroes Day is celebrated to pay tribute to the legacy that these individuals have left to society. A man wearing armor and carrying a sword is often referred to as a hero. Heroes are people who have participated in disputes and shown courage in the front row and selflessly risked their own well-being in order to save the lives of others.

Cavite is place where a lot of historical events occurred. There are house and lot for sale in Bacoor Cavite that are built with one by modern heroes who are engineers since they are determined to make sure that the house they are building are safe for everyone may it be for families or individuals. The word "hero" is often associated with our past heroes who are renowned for their acts of selflessness, patriotism, and great sacrifices such as Dr. Jose Rizal, Andres Bonifacio, General Antonio Luna, Apolinoario Mabini, Melchora Aquino, and Gabriela Silang. Those aforementioned heroes stood up for our country and protected the rights of the Filipinos. However, there are modern-day heroes that are also demonstrating bravery and compassion even if it means sacrificing their own well-being.

This article will discuss and acknowledge the people who are showing a great and fair fight in their own battles that are truly evident every day.

from your nyo! piri reblog, it's cute how the artist named her after their favorite song. which made me wonder, what's your nyo! piri's name and what's the story behind it?

Ooh! obmessed's writings and art are *chefs kiss*! My nyo! Piri is also named Gabriela. Her name echoes what I named Piri as well.

Her full name is Gabriela Luningning Magbanua y Bautista, but in modern naming conventions, it would be Gabriela Luningning B. Magbanua.

It's a tribute to Filipina heroes, Gabriela Silang and Teresa Magbanua. Luningning means bright or twinkle (like the stars). It was what the people called her when she was born. It's not a common name anymore but it's legitimate (the key is to search this on facebook: "[random name] Garcia" lmao). Bautista is very literal because she was dipped in the water and baptised.

Other nations call her Gabbie but her elders (Maynila, Sugbu, Butuan, Sulu, etc.) still call her Luningning.

I actually headcanon that Antonio gave her the name Josefina Gabriela Bautista because there are too many Marias in the world already. Upon her independence, she renews her papers again and decides what her name should be.

0838 20Apr23: sitting at my desk.

It's a quiet day. It's supposed to be a hot day with temperatures reaching mid to upper eighties.

I will leave work early today to try and meet up with my mentor / buddy for an afternoon walk. Yes, it will be hot, but if we go to Oak Grove Lake Park, it is 80% shaded by the trees.

I also packed up my action figures. I can't remember if I placed a male figure in the bag, but I know I have four females. I changed the clothing to uniforms last night as I am working on a small storyline.

In other news, I am here reading history as it seems to be my usual thing to do if I have no task. I think I mentioned yesterday that as I was researching, I found a connection between the story I was starting and the story i had started a few years back.

So before I was writing a story about Diego and Gabriela Silang. There have been stories and films about the couple as Gabriela is a national hero, but I wanted to write my own version of the events. The hardest part is the fight sequences.

But all this research has me thinking of writing my own fictional story based on historically accurate events.

What if I wrote a story around the lines of an English man gets captured by the Spanish. While imprisoned, they send in a filipina to tend to the wounds from the beatings, which leads to a connection. The Filipina organizes a prisoner escape one night when the Spanish are celebrating. A priest and two armed Filipinos enter the cell along with the Filipina, where she has the English man pretending to be dead. The priest kneels down to read the English man his last rights and bless his body when all of a sudden, the two filipino guards attack the preist.

The Filipinos quickly strip the priest of his cloak. The Filipina dresses the English man in the clergy clothing as the Filipinos chain up the priest in place of the englishman. They make their escape before the priest comes to and starts screaming for the Spanish.

This Englishman gets transferred up to Abra, where he meets with Diego Silang to help him organize the revolt.

It's all a possibility... I just gotta write it
