𝐁𝐀𝐆𝐎𝐍𝐆 𝐏𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐏𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐒, 𝐋𝐔𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐆 𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐊𝐑𝐈𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐒𝐘𝐎𝐍: 𝐒𝐀𝐀𝐍 𝐓𝐀𝐘𝐎 𝐋𝐀𝐋𝐀𝐆𝐀𝐘? 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Sa pagtatapos ng kasalukuyang 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘕𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘈𝘥𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴 (𝘚𝘖𝘕𝘈) ni 𝗣𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗙𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗼𝘀 𝗝𝗿., muling nasaksihan ng sambayanan ang paglalatag ng mga plano at tagumpay umano ng pamahalaan. Subalit sa gitna ng mahabang talumpati, nananatili ang isang malaking katanungan: Saan nga ba nakapwesto ang hanay ng 𝗟𝗚𝗕𝗧𝗤𝗜𝗔+ sa mga prayoridad ng administrasyong ito?

Hindi sapat ang simpleng pagbanggit sa inklusibong pag-unlad kung ang mga pangunahing karapatan at proteksyon ng ating sektor ay patuloy na naiiwan sa dilim. Hanggang ngayon:

- Nananatiling nakabinbin ang 𝐒𝐎𝐆𝐈𝐄𝐒𝐂 𝐄𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐁𝐢𝐥𝐥 na magbibigay sana ng legal na proteksyon laban sa diskriminasyon sa paaralan, trabaho, at serbisyong pangkalusugan.
- Patuloy ang karahasan, pang-aapi, at kultura ng kawalan ng hustisya na nararanasan ng marami nating kasama sa komunidad.
- Ang mga batas para sa tamang pangangalaga sa kalusugan at pagkilala sa kasarian ay nananatiling pangarap imbes na maging realidad.

Ang tunay na pagsulong ng bansa ay hindi nasusukat sa matayog na pangako o makintab na estatistika, kundi sa kung paano pinoprotektahan ang pinakamahihina at pinakanaiisantabing sektor ng lipunan.

Araw-araw ang pakikibaka ng LGBTQIA+ Filipino—mula sa pamasahe, trabaho, hanggang sa simpleng karapatang mabuhay nang may dangal at walang takot. Hindi kami palamuti lamang sa lipunan; kami ay mamamayang nagbabayad ng buwis at nag-aambag sa bansa.

Hindi sapat ang pananahimik. Hindi sapat ang paimbabaw na suporta. Oras na para sa totoong aksyon!

𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐄: 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐫𝐢𝐬 — 𝐁𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 🎓🌈
They walked into rooms carrying different colors, different stories, and different versions of themselves–uncertain, growing, and slowly learning how to exist authentically in a world that constantly asked them to hide.

Through sleepless nights, event preparation, chaotic meetings, stressful deadlines, and unforgettable moments behind the scenes, they slowly built more than just an organization–they are the space filled with acceptance, creativity, understanding, and pride. 🌈

Now, as this closes the beautiful chapter, they leave carrying memories that will stay with them far beyond graduation. They leave with friendships formed through lessons learned from every challenge they faced, and the reminder that there is always strength in community.

No matter where life takes them next, a part of them will always remain within–in the memories they created, in the pride they carried together, and in the safe space they helped build for others.

Once an Iris, always an Iris. 💜✨

Pride Month is a celebration of identity, love, and self-expression – but it is also a reminder that the fight for equality is far from over.

“𝘉𝘢𝘬𝘪𝘵 𝘬𝘢𝘪𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘢𝘯 𝘱𝘢 𝘳𝘪𝘯 𝘯𝘨 𝘗𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘔𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘩?”

Isang tanong na madalas nating marinig taon-taon. Ngunit sa panahon kung saan may mga karapatan na patuloy na kinukwestyon at may mga taong hinuhusgahan dahil laman sa kung sino sila. Nananatiling mahalaga ang Pride bilang simbolo ng pagkilala, pakikiisa, at patuloy na paninindigan para sa pagkakapantay-pantay.

Ngayong Hunyo, ipinagdiriwang natin hindi lamang ang mga kulay ng bahaghari, kundi pati na rin ang tapang, katatagan, at pagmamahal na dala ng bawat isa. 🪽✨

Maging ligtas, maging totoo sa sarili, at patuloy na magbigay-liwanag sa iba.

𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘆 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵! 🌈🫂

A heartfelt celebration of lives beautifully lived with grace, strength, and resilience—our beloved elderly community members radiated joy, confidence, and timeless spirit during this meaningful gathering in Barangay Puerto Rivas last March 28, 2026. Their smiles, laughter, and presence remind us that every season of life carries its own kind of beauty worth honoring.

We would also like to extend our deepest gratitude to SK Puerto Rivas Itaas, whose dedication, leadership, and genuine commitment made this initiative possible. Your efforts in bringing the community together and creating meaningful experiences for our elders truly reflect the spirit of service and compassion. Because of you, moments like these become lasting memories filled with joy, respect, and love.

More than just an activity, this initiative stands as a powerful reminder that they are seen, heard, valued, and deeply appreciated. It is a reflection of a community that chooses to care, uplift, and stand beside one another—Lagi’t lagi para sa komunidad—creating safe and nurturing spaces where connection thrives, dignity is upheld, and compassion leads the way.

Because “old but gold” is not just a saying—it is a truth we witness. Their light does not dim with time; it grows even stronger, brighter, and more inspiring with every passing year.

Today, we celebrate International Asexuality Day—a reminder that love, identity, and connection come in many beautiful forms.

To be asexual is not to be "less than", "missing something", or "waiting to be fixed". It is a valid, complete, and deeply human way of being. Every asexual person deserves to be seen, heard, and respected—without question, without pressure, and without judgment.

"𝑪𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒃𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒂𝒄𝒆 𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒘𝒉𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒚 𝒂𝒓𝒆, 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒘𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒌 𝒊𝒔 𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕."

Let’s create a world where no one feels the need to explain or defend who they are. Where boundaries are honored, identities are embraced, and differences are celebrated.

You are valid. You are whole. You are enough—exactly as you are.
