"So here's a hypothesis: Facebook's News Feed tweak wasn't only about getting "higher quality content" in the News feed. It was as much about reducing the reach of free ads on Facebook. Now, if a brand wants exposure on Facebook, it's going to have to buy it from Facebook."

Nothing is free nowadays and it's business as usual for Facebook. Not even the small brands are getting exemptions.  "The updated algorithm is trying to cater to users wants and needs as their participation is integral to the advertising business model, which conveniently allows brands who don't earn enough attention the opportunity to buy it." -MrRyanConnors

Galing!

Aling pag-ibig pa ang hihigit kaya sa pagka-dalisay at pagka-dakila gaya ng pag-ibig sa tinubuang lupa? Alin pag-ibig pa? Wala na nga, wala.

Ulit-ulitin mang basahin ng isip at isa-isahing talastasing pilit ang salita’t buhay na limbag at titik ng isang katauhan ito’y...

Medyo matagal tayong nawala. Pero itong Less Than Jake, may bago silang kanta. For those who love ska, sabi nga ng isang commenter "This song's happy as fuck". Heto sounds muna tayo.

Spank Thru [‘Fecal Matter’ Demo Tape, 1985] “He arrived with a huge notebook full of lyrics, I showed him how to adjust a few things, how to record with the reel-to-reel, and he went right at it. The drums were strong and forceful, and the guitar riffs were fast and furious, with a powerful hook. The lyrical content was rebellious and angry. Mostly slams against society in general. Kurt didn’t like the social ladder in school. Kids thinking they were cool because they wore the “right” clothes or were handsome or pretty, or had money. His songs back then reflected his opinions about these things.” - Mari Earl (Kurt’s aunt).

From highways to alleys: Tartanillas survive despite Cebu City’s restrictions

The tartanilla, Cebu City’s version of the horse-drawn carriage or calesa, is past its heyday.

Jeepneys and taxis are the preferred mode of transport in the city today. Add to that the tricycles, pedicabs and motorcycles-for-hire also competing to share in the commuter traffic in Cebu’s streets.1

More than half a century ago, when taxis were absent and jeepneys were few, the tartanilla was king of the road. It was the main form of transportation around downtown Cebu City and in the neighboring suburbs.
