• Ep 24 of Komiks Kwentuhan on YouTube was really informative for me as someone who is an outsider to Pinoy comic history and more broadly, Pinoy nerd pop culture (PINERD). The 52 minute mark might be my favorite. *this video is primarily in Taglish*
• “Hatinggabi” by The Bed Bites is an antidepressant.
• Pick up your trash when you’re hiking.
