  • Zangief #sketchdaily 87/365

    (The prompt was actually for “worst movie you’ve ever seen”, but my excuse is that the campy live action Street Fighter movie was one of my favorite “worst movies” ever, and Zangief was one of the funniest characters there.)

  • It always feels weird for me when the PH president exercises a line item veto, since presumably Congress has balanced the bill as a whole. This is an unusual power, Wikipedia only lists 3-4 countries that allow line item vetoes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line-item_veto

    Quoted manilabulletin's tweet:
    READ: President Duterte vetoed nine items in CREATE law, including hike in VAT threshold on real property sale, redundant incentives for domestic enterprises; automatic approval of incentive application (📷: Roque) | @GenKabiling

    Note that the PH isn’t one of those listed in the Wikipedia article! I think I’ll attempt to edit Wikipedia today.
