#boycottCOLOURETTEcosmetics trends online because of its savage CEO

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Warmonger “butangerang” CEO, “public figure??”

“Confidence usually is silent. Insecurity is loud and it produces a lot of noise but provides very little in substance. “ 

Funny how the hashtag #boycottCOLOURETTEcosmetics only made the brand famous. Who’s winning now?

Remember that every kind of publicity, may it be good or bad, is still publicity, and the brand is more likely to be infamous if all your hate are baseless and unfounded.

Lol. People think that by commenting this hashtag, people would stop buying Colourette Cosmetics. Bad publicity is still publicity. Ya'll giving Colourette cosmetics free advertisement. 

Colourette, whatever was said throughout the love and hate on social media due to statements said by its CEO, Nina Ellaine Dizon-Cabrera, is a good brand. Not the best, but still a good brand. 

Did Nina blew it all up?

Is she really discrimating the DDS peeps?

People are comparing it with resto owners denying black customers to eat in their restaurant during the 50's era. Justifiable or not?

Are you going to boycott and try other brands instead that values all customers? Or are you going to support it for standing up and calling out to the inadequacies of the government, specifically the President?

Why I stand with her? Because she's so brave. She's not even afraid that she might endanger her company because of his political opinions. She talks about the unheard government incompetence and injustices. Something every Filipino should be doing amid the troll farms disguised as advocacy groups on social media.

She started it all. Nina reposted on her FB account an image or pic of the president sleeping while in the midst of calamity. DDS are saying that she's not spreading or raising her voice, but encouraging people to hate the government in the middle of calamity.

That's her perception. Whether it's right or wrong, it is what we conclude seeing how the president seems to be always absent during an impending or ongoing calamity, and would only be visibly seen afterwards, with very little actions too since lately all we see about him are photos taken mostly by his his sidekick Bong Go who is now a Senator but still his trusted personal aide.

Then with a certain Tio Moreno

People on #boycottCOLOURETTEcosmetics are mad about Nina not wanting DDS customers while forgetting the fact that businesses have a right to refuse service.

To clear things up, DDs were telling Nina that they're cancelling their orders and she told them to post the order# so she can cancel them herself. The og twt was addressing the fact that people are saying she is discriminating against these people due to their political beliefs.

Nina knows that she has the audience, she knows that she’s a public figure and should use these privileges so that the unheard will be heard. She is fighting for the poor and the oppressed, she’s fighting for the hungry mouths and roofless heads. My respect for her.

You don't have to be apologetic Ms. Nina. We protect you because we know that is correct. You are one of the voice for voiceless people like youth. You amplify our objectives. We thank you!

As mentioned, kahit latagan mo pa ang mga DDS ng pagkahaba haba at factual na argument, ang irerebutt pa rin nila is ad hominem:

body weight

skin color

kili kili

sexual harassment

delawan

and so on... basta lahat ng malayo at walang connect sa argument.

I think the most hilarious thing about this is that DDS Colourette fans cannot comprehend that Nina was talking about THEM. DDS ka pa rin even after the mismanagement of Covid? Nina called the DDS tanga.

Is this the Philippines? Kung saan kung hindi ka sang-ayon sa opinyon about the government or president ay i-personal attack? Please we are in a middle of big crisis. Let's be united and help each other. Let's change ourselves first for the better. And please be open minded! Accept, Respect, and Pray. Iisang bansa at tayong lahat ay Pilipino.

Actually, kung hindi ka galit sa gobyerno ibig sabihin wala kang paki or hindi ka apektado sa mga pinaggagawa, or sa kawalang ng gawa, nila.

Before I would ask myself everytime I see u answering Qs on Tiktok " hindi ba siya nahihiya? parang harsh naman" but i realized, that's bravery. Not being afraid of saying what is right, and fighting for our ownselves. 

Do we need to choose our battles? Those clout-chasers are obviously trying to discredit her and her company. There's so many issues coming out? Does she need to answer every accusation? Surprised that she's diligently using her platform, like TikTok, to correct every one of the naysayers.

Her heart is in a good place and is speaking in behalf of the people who can’t find their voice because they are scared. Sana mas dumami pa ang mga kagaya niya. Para lumakas ang loob ng sambayanang Filipino. Huwag tayong paaapi.

Grabeeeh!! People are really out there ruining someone’s livelihood for simply exercising her right to speak up and voice her concerns.

Keep slaying Miss Nina! Yes, you are THAT bitch and we STAN! 

Do not #boycottCOLOURETTEcosmetics, boycott a government deaf, blind and inutile to the death and suffering of Filipinos.

Typhoon Ulysses is giving us Ondoy feels, and I don't like it

Wazzup Pilipinas!

There's currently a storm going through NCR and Calabarzon of the Philippines.

The winds are so angry and it hasn't stopped raining since early in the afternoon. Not to mention, the electricity has been going on and off.  Hopefully the Internet powered by Converge here in Montalban (Rodriguez), Rizal will remain up.

Parang Ondoy lang ulit shuta!

Walang tulugan!! 

It feels like I'm back during the first days of Ondoy here way back in 2009. This is so scary!

Never been this scared of storms until Ondoy came. Now Ulysses feels like Ondoy. Traumatizing because we got caught in the flood where our rented business establishment got totally submerged under water. Only the roof was left showing. All our computers and other equipment (since it was a computer gaming center and Internet cafe) all got soaked in water for a few days. 

The brown coffee-with-creamer-like flood waters just went up really fast and it became difficult to evacuate. Even our car was totally under water for days. We sold that car eventually since it never ran as good as it was before, and all those signs of the flood just brings back traumatizing memories.

My daughter got sick for a month afterwards. Even the doctors in the hospital couldn't figure out what's wrong with her. Only to leave the hospital after exerting all efforts for cure. My wife even approached an "albularyo" since the doctors exhausted all laboratory tests and medicines already.

These rain and winds are bringing back some serious typhoon anxiety. Ondoy made me shift my fear to flooding, and these middle-of-night howling winds are reminding me why our typhoon warning signals are based on wind speed.

Ondoy-mentality: you don't sleep during a storm because Ondoy was as real as things get.

Trying to calm down because my head is panicking. Traumatic na yung Ondoy. Tama na, please stop!

It's already 1 am as of this writing but the rain and wind is still strong, and seems going stronger every hour now.

Just like Ondoy, the rains started late afternoon until early morning the next day. I just hope all our flooding systems as well as pumping stations will work without any flaws. 

While both our residence are at safer areas now since our Pasig home is on the 5th floor of a building, while our residence in Montalban is on relatively high ground. Our eldest child was left alone in Pasig while the four of us are here in Montalban. Ondoy flood submerged the streets around us back then making our roof an island back in 2009). 

Water level at the Marikina river reached close to 16 meters as of 11:14pm last night. The water level may have already reached 16m, which means voluntary evacuation already happening, while a 17m water level triggers forced evacuations. No updates sen posted yet.

Now, that the Marikina river is rising again and is now at critical levels, if this rain won't stop, we might be experiencing another flood like what Ondoy caused.

So I guess there's no sleeping tonight until daybreak.

Just please stop complaining about getting the NDRRMC alerts. Just appreciate the effort NDRRMC is doing. Because we didnt have that when Ondoy and Yolanda happened. 

Every other day we get news about a flood or an extreme weather event ravaging a town. This didn't used to happen this often. Ondoy was considered a phenomenon. It seems relatively ordinary now. I don't understand how people can still deny climate change.

Ondoy happened Sept 2009 and now all the typhoons are happening during November. Climate change is real. 

The power fluctuations is making me nervous. Please don’t be another Ondoy.

Stay safe everyone.

Manila RTC Judge allegedly shot dead by her own court clerk

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Judge Ma Theresa Abadilla of Manila Regional Trial Court was shot inside her chamber. The suspect is her branch clerk, lawyer Amador Rebato, according to Manila Police District.

Capt. Henry Navarro, Manila Police District Homicide Chief gave an initial update on the death of Judge Abadilla, who says the gunman was depressed while tendering his resignation. It is still unclear what triggered him to use his firearm. 

Judge Abadilla had to be taken down the stairs from the fifth floor while on a chair because the elevator was not working, police said. 

A doctor from the Medical Center Manila has declared Judge Abadilla dead while undergoing treatment at 3:15pm today, according to the Manila police.

According to a city hall security force report given to Mayor Isko Moreno, the suspect was "seen feeling uneasy and shuddering while being questioned by Judge Abadilla and without question shot her at point blank range to the head."  

The alleged gunman has also died after shooting himself, and was still inside the office of the judge.

The body was eventually brought down from the crime scene. Authorities then coordinated with the relatives of the judge and the clerk of court. 

Rumor has it that Judge Abadilla discovered an anomaly involving the suspect.

It is worthy to note that Judge Abadilla, acting as a Pairing Judge, presided over the bail hearing of Rappler's CEO Maria Ressa last year due to Presiding Judge Rainelda Estacio-Montesa's absence.

Judge Abadilla's gunman shot himself dead as well? I can't help but think something's fishy here.

Proven na ba na yung court clerk talaga ang pumatay? Who was the witness? There was no mention of names of the witnesses. Pwede kasing setup yan.

According to a source, "Judge Abadilla, who is described by her colleagues as kind but straightforward, has called the BCC, Atty. Rebato, to her Chambers to explain serious irregularities being committed by him."

Source adds: "He then shot the Judge then turned the gun on himself. Clerk of Court has a number of admin cases in Supreme Court.

We still do not know the real story behind such tragedy, but from what I gather, I hope they will also take notice that mental health is also something we need to consider for the members of the Bar.

Judge Abadilla previously worked in the office of then Chief Justice Lucas Bersamin and Teresita De Castro. 

Ex-Chief Justice Bersamin says he is saddened by her senseless death and condoles with the family.

She is the daughter of the late Metrocom General Rolando Abadilla. 

The case of Norman Mangusing aka Francis Marcos for trafficking and estafa was recently re-raffled to her sala after the former judge inhibited from the case due to death threats. 

Judge Abadilla is the 8th judge to be killed since the Duterte administration in 2016, the 51st in the legal profession (which includes both prosecutors and lawyers).

The President himself stated live on national TV his wish to legalize gunning people down.

And this is what happened hours after his statement: Judge Abadilla was shot inside the Manila City Hall. 

What a sad day for the legal profession today. It's was also a race to the bottom in the reporting of the incident involving Judge Abadilla. 

Some media outfits uploaded the video of her being brought to the hospital, unedited, in full color, without blurring her face, body, etc.

Konting respeto naman po.

Condolences to the bereaved families of CoC Atty. Rebato and Judge Abadilla. 

Chief Justice Diosdado Peralta says passing of Judge Abadilla, whom he knows to be an “upright and highly competent magistrate,” a big loss to Judiciary. He condoles with family who comes from same province. Says he instructed Court Ad Midas Marquez to employ stricter measures.
