Don't defend the 'rights' of billionaires to spend money as they see fit. The Ambanis' wealth is not their own. Their wealth accumulation comes from tax evasion, massive loans written off by state banks, & buying public lands & resources at low prices. It's public money.

Am I being dramatic or has there been a complete decimation of reading culture in India? I was speaking to a bunch of 11th grade students who haven't read a full novel cover to cover. Like in my time even people who hated reading would have met that standard several times over.

People are giving SRK too much credit for the politics of Jawan when it's the kind of film that could only be made by someone immersed in the politics of Tamil Nadu.

I'm sick, just sick of all the incel-y stuff I see here on a daily basis. Men posting videos of young women having fun & shaming them, dumb podcasts about what kind of wives and mothers women should be, dumb takes on periods, child births, body counts. Exhausting. .

Recently, pigeons have been entering our kitchen through our balcony and making a mess. This morning I woke up to see this ridiculous contraption my mother made to keep them away. 😂

It's awful that Vikram Seth got scammed but it's also extremely funny that he wrote a whole article about it in a national daily to get a refund.

My favourite story about Jeans (1998) is that Shankar initially titled the movie Genes (since it's about twins) but thought that Tamil audiences would find it too alienating. So he decided to name the movie after a PAIR OF DENIM TROUSERS.

wonder what made Shankar think it was ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY to add this scene in Jeans?

I'm inspired by Jay Shetty's grifting skills. He officiated Vanessa Hudgens's wedding. This is after he officiated the weddings of Jennifer Lopez + Ben Affleck and Lily Collins. True desi excellence.

Modi was responsible for the premeditated mass murders of Muslims under his watch in Gujarat. He crossed the moment when he went 'too far' almost two decades ago.

Got a rejection letter from a university this week & spent 2 days feeling terrible about myself. Today, one of my recommenders emailed the letter of recommendation he had sent in & it moved me to tears. I'm going to read it whenever I beat myself up about anything.

If you're queer & support Hindutva, denigrate Muslims and Bahujans, don't support Kashmiri self-determination, & think JNU fees protests have no place at Pride, don't talk about queer liberation because the only person whose rights you give a damn about is your own.

Can't believe I used to admire the smartest guy in my school, a prodigy at everything he dabbled in who went to Ivy League universities. He's a warmongering fascist who thinks India needs to retaliate for Pulwama. What use is an elite education if it doesn't teach you humanity?

My hot take - If you're the kind of person who uncritically consumes shows like Friends, The Office & Game of Thrones but tears into the problematic viewing choices of folks who watch Indian entertainment, you're not woke, you're classist.

By saying you support peaceful protests, you tacitly put the onus on protestors to be peaceful when it's clear every step of the way that the disruption of peace over the past week involves the state wielding disproportionate force against the CAA protestors.

Whatever your views on Utsav's allegations, it's disgusting how many men are reacting to this like it's a sports tournament rather than a sobering case involving people whose lives are under the scanner about alleged incidents of sexual impropriety.

Today my father claimed he didn't have enough information to say if the CAB was bad or not. After a frenzied two hour discussion, he said I had valid points to make if only I was calm. What can I say? When it comes to my own family, I'm livid at terrible politics.

How do men find women going through the most traumatic episodes of their life and term it 'inspirational'? I admire this woman's resilience but the way this video has papered over this tragedy to make a clickbaity inspiring video is sickening.
