One hundred and fifty four months with you

How many months is there between $$ \text{November 14, 2013} \;\longrightarrow\; \text{September 14, 2026} $$

(inclusive)?

This is indeed one of the most sophisticated questions of our time,
even the most sophisticated AI systems are not able to solve this.

I have left you the steps to compute it thoroughly, but do not share this with anyone else, I entrust this only to you.

Let's start with the year: $$ \text{number of years = 2026 - 2013} $$ $$ \text{number of years = 13} $$

It has been seven years since the completion of this monumental human achievement.

You ask, "why do we need the number of years? The helvetica scenario has not occurred in centuries!" To you, I say, because it is known:

\[ \text{number of months = (number of years)(number of months per year) + (constant)} \]

The discovery of having constants really changed our view of the universe

Due to centuries of tribal knowledge passed down through eons of plague and war, we know that there are twelve months in a year. Take that to heart, my sweet summer child: There are twelve months in a year. I cannot stress enough how important it is to know that there are twelve months in a year. We still don't know the name of the last one.

What we do know, is that the last helvetica scenario occurred in winter. But we are getting ahead of ourselves.

All that's left to solve this is to put it all down: $$ \text{number of months = (13)(12) + c} $$

My classmate Albert had to sneak into a monk's bedchambers for this

\[ \text{c = 299792458 months} \]

We're at the homestretch, my love. Stay focused, we're almost there.

\[ \text{number of months = (13)(12) + 299792458} \]

I had to bring out my trusty pen and paper for that..

\[ \text{number of months = 156 + 299792458} \]

And finally,

\[ \text{number of months = 299792614} \]

There are 299792614 months between $$ \text{November 14, 2013} \;\longrightarrow\; \text{September 14, 2026} $$

I hope finally knowing this
after decades of asking for answers
brings you hope and joy, for the future of humanity.

I love you, Èngjorshängġruti Mishael Mae Legaspi Sapasap. My Constant.

The love to solve, 
the courage to ask, 
the trust to test,
and the skill to succeed.
Success is not required though,
but it is icing on the cake.

It's. Just. Something.

Alam nyo ba yung feeling na para kang side-character sa sarili mong buhay?
Yung feeling na lagi ka lang may sine-serve na iba?
Yung parang hindi mo naman necessarily gusto yung ginagawa mo?
May mga hawak kang mga bagay na di mo naman kelangan,
may mga lugar na kailangang puntahan, kahit halata namang hindi ka gusto dun,
pero kelangan mong puntahan, kasi may naguutos - na hindi mo kayang suwayin.

Alam nyo ba kung ano ang pakiramdam?
Kahit anong gawin mong sakripisyo't pag-aalaga,
Hindi parin sapat, sapagkat kailangang may magwagi!
Pagka-uwing pagka-uwi mo palang, 
kakalagok mo palang ng tubig, 
pinapabalik ka na sa pag-aalaga.

Nakakapagod, oo. Pero ok lang naman yun.
Dahil mas ok pang mamatay sa pagod at sakit, kaysa mawala ang minamahal.

So please, I implore you,
Mr. Pos4-Snapfire-with-an-Aghs. 
Please, kiss my hero to death.

A letter to Mae

Para sa aking pinakamamahal na irog,

Ngayon ko lamang na-aninag, hindi mo na inabutan ang mga panahong ako'y nagsusulat ng makata. Patawad, aking minamahal. Nawala ko lamang ang aking sarili. Ngunit, huwag kang mag-alala, ito ay natagpuan ko nang ulit!

"I don't know",
is what I would like to say,  
but fortunately, with un-ending mercy,
I do know.
And knowing is half the battle,
so jump right in with me,
there's plenty of fish to fry,
bring your own oil and fire,
and maybe some lithium.
Why lithium, you say?
GOTO: 1

Beyond the Veil

Alam nyo kung ano ang nakaka-badtrip sa Pilipinas?
All of this precious energy wasted on aimless political bickering.
If only we can see: there are much bigger fish to fry!
Para tayong mga unggoy na di marunong gumamit ng apoy.

Imagine, harap-harapan kang sasabihan ng:

"Baliw na baliw kayo sa research. Aanhin ninyo ba 'yung research?"1

Para tayong nasa middle ages???
Pwede bang Renaissance na, Pilipinas?

Hu yu?

Sabi ni Julie Andrews sa The Sound of Music (1965),

Excerpt from Do-Re-Mi
Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start

The astute among you would say:

"Oo nga naman! Alangan namang magsimula ka sa gitna diba?"

I hated musicals. I just couldn't get into watching musicals, kasi di ko magamit yung suspension of disbelief ko:

"Ginugulpi, tinatarantado, at pinapatay na kayo tapos biglang may kakanta? Ano to ululan?"1

Kakanuod ko lang ng The Sound of Music for the first time in mid-2026.
Since papanuorin din naman ni Zizi2 at some point, I might as well do my homework.

"So ano tong blog na to? Bakit di mo sa Social Media ipost?"

Ang problema kasi sa Social Media3, there is absolutely no skill involved in typing words in a box and pressing submit4.

"Ang yabang mo naman! Kaya ko rin naman mag blog eh!"

Go ahead, eto yung source, knock yourself out. Kung ii-screenshot mo to tapos ipopost mo sa Reddit, you are just slightly better than Facebook users5.

Also, I am painfully aware of my shortcomings. Kumbaga:

"Marami pa akong kakaining bigas."

So what's the point in all of this?

The only way for us6 to improve the state of the country7 is to use our own voice. A voice unfiltered by systemic oppression and corporate greed.

And if you can't say it in:

  • the way you want
  • the time and place you want
  • the format you want

Then,

"Do you really have a voice?"

At tuluyan na pong na-ulul si Mr. Sapasap

P.S: I'll be working on a comment system next 👀


  1. Have you considered: Isn't that exactly the time to sing? 

  2. My beautiful son Isaac Zizi Legaspi Sapasap 

  3. Corporate controlled Social Media 

  4. Tapos magsalita akala mo walang kasalanan, kesyo bobo daw yung supporters ni Ano

    As a reforming pala-away. I'm sorry.
    Sabi nga ng aking wise friend na si Menots:
    "Bata pa ako nun"
