Why I Support Modi’s Plan Of Downplaying Kumbh And Railway Deaths

The internet used to be cooler when people needed to know how to computer.

That barrier kept the riffraff out.

I was talking to a person who used to work for a very important BJP politician in MP and I said to him that I think, the BJP is rigging EVM machines. On this, he interrupted and said, no, that’s not the case rather they manage even 5-10 votes. (1/4)

100 years ago, Bangalore was divided into 'pete' and 'cantonment', roughly Kempegowda's city & the army bases of the Raj. Here in the Cantt area, there are beautifully maintained campuses and centres still vital to the Indian Army, & neglected sites like this slowly crumbling civilian staff housing.

Closing time, one last call for alcohol
So, finish your whiskey or beer
Closing time, you don't have to go home
But you can't stay here

A team of cops, lawyers, and officials of the Archeological Survey of India chanting JSR as they go to a mosque for a "survey", in an obvious attempt to provoke violence. This is the Hindu Rashtra of UP, a petty, partisan, insecure state that behaves like a troll, but with guns to back it up.

Folks, I need to know words for "bum," i.e., buttocks, i.e., the body part, in different languages. So please share words you know (like, in your mother tongue).
(I promise I'm not being a creep. This is for work. I will not be able to give you official credit, but you will have my gratitude)

Even Parliament is a place for hate speech for the BJP. Those racist slurs by BJP MPs and senior BJP leaders laughing at those comments is a new low. Each day, these fascists are proving that we are already in Hitler's Germany.

Any Indians hanging out in here, please send an email to the TRAI asking them to protect net neutrality in India, which is on the cusp of being scuttled. The deadline is tomorrow. This link makes it easy, and includes a letter draft to use:
Letter to TRAI to protect Net Neutrality
TRAI is wondering whether the “OTT” space should be policed — and your telecom service providers believe IT SHOULD.
