I feel like it's time for another "foreigner mods" joke again. I'm going to milk this badly than Ryan Rems with rock and roll.

I was supposed to add this paragraph to my reply to the Ever Gotesco post, but I‌ decided to cut it out and put it somewhere else, here:

‌ I am not one to glorify mall culture here, but I hope if they (the struggling Ever malls) do end up being abandoned, someone can just turn them into quasi-social spaces where people can hang out without spending money. Heck, tying it back to my rants about public transport, why not someone can turn those dying malls into transportation hubs with a quasi-social space on top? If we're going to be transferring from one transport mode to another anyways, why not have a spot to rest na rin? Lalo na kung mejo mahaba ang pila sa jeep na kailangan mong sakyan pauwi.

It's one tactic that SM Malls use in their favor, and other malls struggle to replicate (basically since SM malls force themselves to be the area's hub--looking at you, MoA). But in certain areas kasi, it's other malls who have the hub (Sta Lucia grand east, for example, or possibly Ever Ortigas). So yeah! It'd take a lot of money though, as you'd have to buy up that land, in a good location, and to recoup that money, well, you'd better maximize the area's commercial potential (kinda the MO of SMDC, I‌ think). IDK, I'm rambling here, sorry.

LSS: Red Flags by Tom Cardy (ft. Montaigne)

I vaguely remember seeing one of the artists' videos on reddit but kinda forgot about him. But last night I stumbled upon this song on a Youtube short and I especially liked the lady singer's voice. It got me looking for the original and what a pleasant surprise.

Bachelor party ideas please

Thinking of good cocktails for two hours (san meron na unli?)

Tapos pub crawl (whats a good route?)

Then strip club? or book a hotel beforehand and get a stripper? (san makakakuha and ano ok na hotel?)

busog sa drama with the GN vs LMG debacle

Had to break my no-posting-on-reddit rule by pointing out where r/thevisoria went.

Hopefully the trade off is more people?

Tonight's Ask PHLemmy: What's the worst financial decision you've seen someone make?

New Thunder release looks good.

Something weird just happened today. Whichever explanation I can think of concerns me, really. SO here it goes.

Let's start with yesterday (Monday around noon); I just got back from my home province and started unpacking my stuff. I distinctly remember getting the bath soap that I took from the province out my bag and into the shared restroom (I share the restroom with whoever was on the apartment next to mine, so I thought it was fine).

Which brings us to today. About an hour ago, I went to the restroom to take a crap and, lo and behold, my bath soap was missing. So, like any dude who is pissed that someone is taking my stuff without my permission, I ripped a tissue core in half and wrote down an angry message stating "Return my bath soap" and accusing whoever took it as a thief. So I left the message in the restroom and went back to my room. I opened my bag to get my umbrella (which was still in the bag), and what do I see but my soap, which was in there.

I don't know if I'm getting phantom memories or if somehow my soap walked all the way from my shared bathroom to my locked room and in my bag, but either way, it's not normal for me. It's worrying to be honest.
