LONDON, The United Kingdom (The Adobo Chronicles, London Bureau) – When Elon Musk decided to rebrand Twitter as “X,” he was confident his social media platform would be the only company in the world named as such.
Boy, was he wrong.
British scientists are now developing vaccines against a new pandemic that still doesn’t exist. So they’re calling it “Disease X.” The vaccine development is being done at a government high-security lab complex in Wiltshire.
Musk became furious when he learned of this British development.
“They could have easily named it “Unknown Disease,” Musk told The Adobo Chronicles. “Why on earth would they name it after my company which already exists,” he added.
Musk is threatening to file a class-action suit on behalf of all X account holders against the British scientists.

BEIJING, China (The Adobo Chronicles, Hong Kong Bureau) – The Philippines’ coast guard and military condemned on Sunday what they called the China Coast Guard’s “dangerous” actions after it fired water cannons at Philippine vessels, the latest of Beijing’s aggressive actions in the West Philippine Sea.
But it was all a misunderstanding.
The Chinese Coast Guard said it was merely executing a formal salute as a friendship gesture to the Filipinos.
It is a fact that water cannons are used worldwide as a celebratory display for various occasions, including anniversaries of bridges, the landing of inaugural flights at airports, and other commemorative occasions.
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau ) – Senator Cynthia Villar, Chair of the Senate Committee on Food, Agriculture and Agrarian Reform today said this would be a good time for the Philippines to push for its exports of mangoes and bananas.
The real estate mogul and businesswoman made this statement after she learned that Apple has recorded a decline in sales three years in a row now.
She told The Adobo Chronicles she will immediately file a Senate bill that will provide more financial incentives to mango and banana producers and exporters. “My bill could greatly contribute to the continued decline in the country’s inflation rate,” she said.
Asked if she would be willing to convert some of her family real-estate properties into mango and banana-producing agri lands, the senator said, “No comment.”
