It's frustrating how in the Philippines, psychology graduates are limited to HR and corporate jobs with little to no opportunities for growth. It's unfair that a field with so much potential for helping individuals is being reduced to administrative tasks. (1/n)
Through these artworks, I wanted to capture the moments that this pandemic stole from us - the what-ifs, the might-have-beens. This is as close I could get to create a world where nothing seems to go wrong and we are free to express our love without judgement.
Hii!! I'm Owen, an artist from Philippines!! I don't have any recent art but here are my favorite works! My art is inspired by queer couples in love. 🥰

also contexts!! neo was singing "Kahit Konting Awa" by Nora Aunor. this song was written after Nora Aunor's portrayal of Flor Contemplacion, a domestic worker in Singapore who was sentenced to death following an unfair trial.
Despite the urgent need for mental health professionals in the country, there seems to be little support for the development of the industry. Where are the counseling centers, mental health clinics, and research institutions? (2/n)
saklap lang how i turned down different opportunities just to be with you. i am supposed to be processing my application for grad school to melbourne dahil i was offered a scholarship. pero no, i stayed dahil sabi mo you want us to migrate together. i declined the scholarship.
It's time for the government and private sector to recognize the value of psychology and create more opportunities for graduates to contribute to society. Let's invest in mental health and empower our psychology professionals to make a difference in the lives of Filipinos. 3/3

Bulacan is also at risk. Bulacan is surrounded by three dams, Angat, Bustos and Ipo. Some parts of our province is still submerged in water. We need prayers.
Calumpit and Hagonoy are experiencing high level of floods.

BULACAN UPDATE!
I called the Bulacan Rescue Hotline and they said na manageable na po ang tubig baha sa Calumpit at Hagonoy. Nareach na nito ang peak at hindi na raw po ito tataas pa.

HAHAHAHA! Funny how this is relevant today. lol. You guys are so weird for ganging up on my tweet, yet you proved how pinkwashed, corporatized, and focused on identity politics your pride event is.
Instead of paying homage and celebrating to the long history of MMPride and Pride in the Philippines, in general; inuna mong magcompare ng notes. Kaya ang hirap bumuo ng united front for equality dahil sa mga ganitong inuuna ang comparison kesa alliance building.
Hello, magandang gabi, gusto ko lang po i-manifest sa twitter world na lagpas isang buwan na since my last depressive episode and medyo mentally stable and healthy naman ako this past few weeks so ayun, wala lang, proud moments with myself lang hehe
I've been seeing posts of their Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale's (DASS) results and I got the permission from my Professor to share these words hehe
PSA: Depression and other mental health problems are considered as comorbidity. Entitled tayo for priority list A3.
So you may contact your LGU to get your vaccine shots. I got mine last May 1, babalik na lang this June 1 for the second shot.
I hope this helps!

!! I am Owen, a Filipino queer artist and activist, and I love to draw queer couples, mostly based on my own experiences, using warm tones and textured brushes because they give me an impression of warmth and nostalgia.
Pinakamataas na pagpupugay sayo, Arc! Mahal na mahal ka ng sambayanan, mula sa 6th floor ng PUP hanggang sa kabundukan ng Mindoro. Ang bigat bigat pero magpapatuloy kami.

Title: St. Julian School for the Gifted
Mr. Frank, the principal, was murdered on a typical school day, where the body was later then found inside the janitor's closet. A number of students were questioned, but the investigation seems to go nowhere.
Tanda mo ba? March 2020.
Sinundo mo ako mula sa Charlie para mag-siomai sa angkong dimsum house sa P. Noval. Dumiretso tayo sa The Capital para magreview sa anaphy quiz ko, pharmacology naman ang nirereview mo noon. Nakaapat na balik tayo sa kape.
The Philippine government failed Contemplacion by not providing lawyers and support, letting her die without accountability. Singapore's unfair trial showed a blatant disregard for justice.
Went out with this guy from Ateneo Chem. Everything went well naman until we talked abt our plans sa future, told him I am hoping na makapasok sa either UST/UPM Med school sana kaso I only got 93 sa NMAT. He told me na with that score, I won’t be qualified anywhere HAHA

We were having a peaceful assembly holding nothing but our placards, when a Zionist Islamophobe accused our colleague of carrying something in his bag and even accused him of being 'suspicious.' He was suddenly pushed and thrown around, as seen in the video. HE WAS DOING NOTHING!
HAPPENING NOW: “Love

”, a peace concert by the Israel Office in Taiwan at Daan Park, featuring local bands & a special song made for the event. The event is also fundraising money.
Stickers with the Israel’s flag over the Taiwan’s map & 🇮🇱 flaglets are being distributed.
Ang sabi ng mga relihiyoso't banal banalan, mapupunta ang mga bakla't lesbiyana sa impyerno dahil sila'y makasalanan.
Hindi na kami takot. Matagal na kaming nabubuhay sa impyerno sa ilalim ng isang macho-pyudal na sistemang panlipunan.

To this day, the situation of many OFWs is not much different from Flor's. For example, the ongoing case of Mary Jane Veloso remains unresolved. Veloso, a domestic worker, was arrested in Indonesia for drug trafficking after being duped by recruiters.
i didnt get the context ng pitting between ph pride and mmpride before, pero maybe there is a reason after all. lol.
ph pride organizers are weird for inviting and giving platforms for genocide perpetrators.
whack.
And the comparison with Taiwan is necessary because? Darling, there is a global rollback on LGBTI+ rights and increasing anti-LGBTI+ narratives from all fronts. What we are not gunna do rn is compare and pit different movements that are geared towards the same goal.
Magandang gabi, Twitter! I'm Owen and I am diagnosed with BPD and MDD. I do commissions to help me finance my medications and therapy sessions. If you're looking, or know someone who is looking for an artist to commission, please refer me. RTs are appreciated as well. Thank you!
I don't have that much finished artworks this 2019 pero I am proud to say na maganda yung growth ko this year pagdating sa arts. I explored and tried different art styles. This year is something. Looking forward sa 2020.
Ang OA mo, Amber. My tweet is not in any way an attack on the Philippine organizers, let alone other pride march initiatives in the Philippines. The comparison in my tweet is between Pride in the Philippines and Taiwan, where I currently reside. Stop putting words in my mouth.
Instead of paying homage and celebrating to the long history of MMPride and Pride in the Philippines, in general; inuna mong magcompare ng notes. Kaya ang hirap bumuo ng united front for equality dahil sa mga ganitong inuuna ang comparison kesa alliance building.
What's more weird is that you even gave a platform to genocide perpetrators who kill thousands of LGBT Palestinians.
Baka valid nga ang comparison ng notes lol
Michelle Gumabao is the best Ms. Universe Philippines that we never had.
That's the tweet. I said what I said. Periodt. Periodicals. Periodism. Periodic table.
Nakababa na raw po ang mga tubig mula sa Arayat at katabing lugar. Nagpakawala na rin daw po ng tubig mula sa Angat Dam before pa manalasa ang Typhoon Ulysses.
May ilang mga bahay pa rin ang lubog sa baha pero na-evacuate na sila. We still need your prayers!
