Summary
We took a break. It was unplanned. Like many Filipinos, we needed a moment. The last elections were ... something. There are certain things — like the party line, hours of zero electricity, mullets, "salvaging" (the martial law euphemism for extrajudicial killing), and martial law itself — that just shouldn't make a comeback. Yet here we are: back with not one, not two, but three of our history's more controversial leaders back in power. We find ourselves celebrating Filipino Independence Day (and our first year anniversary!) with all sorts of feels. In this episode, we flip and flip again (sometimes frenetically, like oxygen-deprived tilapia on a bangka), trying to make sense of where we are and where we're going, and committed to finding hope and a way forward.
