AI: Friend or Foe?
Oh, the marvellous world of Artificial Intelligence, where the lines between helpful innovation and dystopian nightmares blur faster than you can say "Hey, Siri!” Picture this: a realm where machines make miracles happen, where Siri isn't just a virtual assistant but a saviour for those with disabilities. AI appears as both a ray of hope and a sign of uncertainty in this digital dance between triumph and trepidation. While it champions accessibility for the marginalized, its algorithms often echo the biases of society, perpetuating injustice in their wake.

"Hate-Proof Heart"
Amara was conceived uniquely. Not in the manner a youngster with criss crossed eyes or a giggle that tinkled like breeze rings is unique.

The Aftermath of the May 9 Elections
Note: This was written in June 4, 2022, and is only being published now. The evening of the May 9 National Elections brought everyone hoping for a change in our country two emotions: anxiousness and nervousness. Millions of voters in the Philippines lined up early in the morning to cast their votes for president, vice president, senators, and local authorities of their respective cities. For the majority youth, they picked VP Leni Robredo and Senator Kiko Pangilinan as their president and vice president respectively for the opposition, to counter the Uniteam tandem of the dictator’s son and namesake Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. and Mayor Inday Sara Duterte. The Leni-Kiko tandem (who were always placing second according to the pre-election surveys to the frontrunners from Uniteam) brought so much hope for a brighter future, so the entire country was at the edge of its seat after the polls closed, awaiting the release of the partial and unofficial tally.
