#ICYMI: COMMENTARY: Magalong is selective. At his worst, he is not a truth-seeker because of his bias for Duterte and his tendency to obstruct justice for the crimes of Duterte. vera.ph/3KmcCBh

While having lunch, a bachelor student randomly asked if I had time for a conversation. And we just talked about research, managing stress, and expectations at Uni. What a day! That was heavy. Happy weekend. 😌

TASA is deeply dismayed by Macquarie Uni’s proposed restructuring that would decimate sociology. The social sciences matter — they help us navigate a complex world. Our full statement & call to action here: tasa.org.au/docs.ashx?id=157… #Sociology #SupportHASS tasa.org.au/docs.ashx?id=157…

Why use #deliberative processes? What are some challenges in organising mini-publics? How can we incorporate more voices from the Majority World? 🤔 ICYMI: Joanna Massie @McMasterU reviewed 6️⃣ handbooks on deliberative processes 🔓delibdemjournal.org/article/…

Happy to see this in print! In this @JournalPolitics article, I argue that democratic innovations can benefit from participatory, deliberative, agonistic, feminist and transformative theory. I put forward 5 lessons for democratic innovations. 🔓OA: doi.org/10.1177/026339572513…

To all friends and supporters of VP Sara, paki check niyo naman okay pa ba siya. Lol.

Sinabi ni Vice Pres. #SaraDuterte na hindi mahilig manggipit ng kalaban ang kaniyang ama na si dating pangulong #RodrigoDuterte. Maging si dating vice president Atty. Leni Robredo at mga kaibigan niya ay hindi aniya ginipit ng dating pangulo. #News5

[ICYMI] Possibly the most heartfelt scholarly piece I've written with @RCDagle. On faith, sexuality, struggles, and spirituality. Out now in the latest issue of Critical Research on Religion. 😇 The pre-print version is available via this link: bit.ly/SpiritualityOfStruggl….
Paano nga ba manampalataya ang mga beking Kristyano? 🙏🌈 Para sa aming mga nakakuwentuhan, belief could be a lifelong struggle within, with their loved ones, with society, and with God. But for many, this journey of faith is one that they are willing to take.
