Breadcrumbers

They're not only Hansel and Gretel now. The term can also refer to "narcissist manipulators who string along others, keep their hopes up through acts of interest and disappoint them with false expectation, empty promises and abandonment. (Preston C. Ni)

Sharing the Blame

Putin now hires mercenaries to do his fighting in Ukraine.

Teresa of Avila

Closed Values

DU30 closed ABS-CBN, now in the pocket of ally billionaire Money Villar. But not E-sabong, no- no!

Gathering

During the Bulacan rally of Marcos Jr., rallyists in red or green went on stage to appeal that pickpockets return at least their OFW ID in the stolen wallet. One partylist candidate opined that it was a veritable General Assembly of thieves! 

Mother Nature

We owe it all to Her. She makes her presence felt when least expected. Roughed up by Jr's henchmen in a Bacolod rally, Leni supporter got her revenge when fliers she carried were flown by the wind right smack to Jr's face!

Imperfect Crime

Marcos Jr.'s camp loaded people in dump trucks but in pink shirts to appear for VP Leni. Their showing "V" hand signals gave them away. Leni goes by an "L."

Show

Darryl Yap faults VP Leni for talking off her heels after the 3-hour debate as show(wo)manship. At least, she showed up!

Showbiz Kids

While they earned more than their paper-route contemporaries, they had more problems too.

With almost everything marked, they had difficulty setting their own non-showbiz schedules like studying.

They missed out on the other regular activities of childhood like summer camp.

Some were open to abuse by adults including their parents.

With overflowing money, easily came drugs and other emotional problems.

When they were no longer cute, they felt discarded, like senior citizens at 16.
