Sass Rogando Sasot, The Forever Student

Sass Rogando Sasot has once again updated his ever-evolving LinkedIn cosplay — from “international relations expert” to, wait for it, “scientific socialist.” Because, why not? Who needs credentials when you have confidence and a Wi-Fi connection?

Sasot’s expertise seems to shift faster than his thesis submission deadlines. He’s like a Pokémon of academia, evolving every semester — just without the gym badges. His one consistent title? “Forever Student,” tirelessly collecting educational units like Infinity Stones, not for enlightenment, but for the real prize: a shiny new student visa.

Forget scholarly publications or peer-reviewed work — if degrees could be bought in bulk, Sasot would need storage space.

While others chase diplomas to graduate, he chases them like Pokémon Go players chasing Pikachu in 2016. In the end, his most verifiable credential is his Olympic-level endurance in academic enrollment. Truly, the Usain Bolt of unpaid or crowd-sourced tuition and unfinished dissertations.

Top 5 For Mr. Baguio?

Who knew Baguio City would bloom into the Miss Universe factory of the north? Beauty queens here don’t just slay the runway — they sashay through pine trees and traffic like it’s part of the swimsuit competition.

But wait — let’s not leave our kings behind! Introducing the top 5 contenders for Mr. Baguio, err, Councilor 2025! It’s the pageant-politics crossover we never knew we needed. These gents have platforms and political platforms — one’s even a Mr. Philippines Earth titleholder, proving he knows both climate justice and how to smize.

Watch out, barangay meetings might just turn into talent portions. “Candidate #3, what is your stand on zoning laws?” cue interpretative dance.

Come May 12, may the best man — or men — win. Bonus points for evening wear, advocacy, and passing at least one ordinance with flair.

Baguio, you’re not just the City of Pines — you’re the City of Fine Gentlemen.

Sass Rogando Sasot Outs Himself?

In a plot twist worthy of a telenovela and a government PSA rolled into one, Sass Rogando Sasot has dramatically outed himself—again—but this time not as a political commentator, but as Allantroy: male, Filipino, and formerly powered by an expired U.S. student visa. Talk about plot development!

Turns out, gender may be a spectrum, but immigration records? Not so much. The U.S. may have said “bye, Troy,” but the Philippine laws are waving “hey, kabayan!” from the sidelines, armed with legal memos and a touch of archipelagic concern. Somewhere in a bureaucratic office, a DFA staffer just spilled their third cup of instant coffee.

Meanwhile, Sass (or Troy, depending on which identity is trending today) seems to think sovereignty is a fashion choice. Newsflash: you can’t ghost your citizenship just because you’re abroad. The internet never forgets, and neither do immigration forms. What a saga—Sasot’s got receipts, and now, so does the state.
