Anyone wondering what a “good” president in Philippines looks like, I was made (as a U.S. born Pinoy) to understand this: celebrities go into government because they are celebrities. In my family we used to joke that at the height of Justin Bieber’s popularity, he would get elected if he was Filipino. Just wanted to contrast things.

No joke, Manny Pacquiao was a senator at one time.

Which is?

EDIT: The current government at the time of his death didn’t even want him transported back to the country. He had been in Hawaii for medical treatment. Eventually he got put in a mausoleum. In 2016 when he finally did get a burial, that sparked protest. If you think something other than ex-president can be used as a more appropriate label, I would like to know.

As a Asian American, Trump is the last person I want defending us in any capacity.

Just giving me ideas of how to drink beverages at STLV.

Have you actually been through the Canal? I have been on a cruise that went through it. It takes hours. That is some slow ass war if I’ve ever heard of one.

Yes I would. It is free.

Sus to be hanging out with a 17-year-old.

EDIT: Anyone not understanding the joke, just look up the lyrics to Dancing Queen by ABBA.

But what age range would this be? Can’t be a child. We already got that.

Before Picard season 1 was in production, McAvoy (not sure if he was serious) said he’d like to play a young Jean-Luc.

And there is a official crossover that occurred long before Sir Patrick Stewart starred in the movies.

So he likes to fantasize about Kamala as his surrogate daughter?

EDIT: In case you forgot or were unaware, Famke Janssen played Kamala in “The Perfect Mate” as well as Jean Grey in the original X-Men trilogy.

I thought that was a koala.
