Did you know about how the Visayans in the Philippines tell time?
A trivia titled "Reading embodied data: How Visayans tell time. Here we see a simple, flat coloured illustration indicating 2 of the ways Visayans tell time: Sun's position in the sky and time for climbing. The trivia goes as follows. Many cultures traditionally follow nature’s cues to tell time. For the Visayans in the Phillipines, they divide daylight hours into various time periods according to the position of the sun. Nasirakna, meaning “shining”, is a time assigned between dawn and noon. Nabahadna means a time for climbing, followed by Iguritlogna, which is when hens lay eggs. If you raise an arm to the sun during Makalulululu, your bracelet slides down, while Natupongna sa lubi describes the sun’s descent to the height of palm trees, seen against the horizon. The day ends with Igsirinto, when it is too dark to recognise other people.

It is not bigoted to say that pinkwashing state violence is bad.

You are not a leftist if you think people in the Global South getting murdered suddenly is less bad if it is a woman, a transwoman, a gay person, or whoever.

Murdering people is bad, even if they have a different skin color than yours.
