Am putting it here for permanent record.

The missus and I cannot believe how we lucked out with the kid. And while she may not realise it in the heat of the moment, we are proudest of her at her infuriating, argumentative best.

Abbe nahi yaar. Yeh sab kachra idhar nahi chahiye.
Concerning.
At least 14 conservative accounts said X had revoked their blue verification badge, cutting them off from a variety of premium features, including the ability to monetize their accounts through subscriptions and advertising revenue-sharing, according to a review conducted by NBC News.

Dear Indian new parents

Congratulations on the new arrival and may you be perennially blessed.

But stop this obsession of giving your extended family homework, to guess your baby's name.

Are you expecting to get a cracker of a name from someone and go, "you know what, let's do that instead!"

A Neanderthal part of me is enjoying the chaos of Trump in the US.

Why should only we suffer at the hands of rondu imbeciles.

With the passing of Dr. MMS, it feels like another thread connecting us to the potential of what India could have been has snapped.

Instead we are now left with an insecure, noisy, whiny national personality.

Man comes home from a ventriloquist show. Wife asks him how it went. Man says "I didn't like the performer, but that small guy on his knee was brilliant".

Indians dissing finance minister for her 'performance' are showing the same energy.

Someone called my number, asked for me by name, and then asked whether the broccoli had come in.

Apparently I am a green grocer in a parallel universe

A society RWA uncle uses "Batenge to katenge" as a rallying call in a society meeting.

RWA's are truly the foot soldiers of fascism in India

Does it seem like the Modi government has dropped even the fig leaf of good administrative governance in favour of only rabble rousing from the pulpit, electioneering and orchestrating photo ops?

OpenAI drops o3 a few hours after this. Another nail in the white collar (IT/consulting/KPO etc.) mass employer coffin.

Great. Just great.

How can a professor of Organizational Behaviour have a discussion on "Mindful Leadership" with a bigoted hate monger like Gaurav Arya?

Wouldn't the cognitive dissonance cause his head to explode?

Do I operate in such an echo chamber, that it's so obvious Trump and Modi are taking their countries for an absolute ride, but they keep getting elected..

They are two extremely terrible people with cartoonish villain levels of blatant evil, yet so many decent people vote for them.

If the RSS can have Muslim members, there can also be women who support the patriarchy.

Does not imply the RSS is NOT a fascist organisation, and nor does it mean patriarchy is NOT the problem.

This may be rose tinted glasses but the feed here so far is so much less triggering
