A 34-year-old man, an animal lover who took care of the community dogs in his area, was hacked to death following an altercation with a group of men who were bursting firecrackers on a public road in Thiruvottiyur on November 9, night.

There's a certain "haha fuck you" kind of a defiance that has shaped how a lot of Indian festivals are celebrated.
They are no longer emanating from a place of love and joy, but a desire to inflict the most obnoxious self expression at the cost of everyone else's wellbeing.

After a bloody clash that lasted 7 days and 7 nights Ram defeated Ravan and reunited with his beloved Sita. Heading home to Ayodhya, he made a pit stop at Sivakasi and taught them how to make firecrackers from a tutorial on YouTube he’d downloaded. Before leaving he told the grateful traders, Mitron, if you want to make profits, employ kids in your factories, pay them peanuts, keep working conditions unsafe and exploit the hell out of them. Zealots claiming to be devout Hindus but with zero understanding of Hinduism will take care of marketing.

People see the Oscar win and think of a great film, but forget A Fantastic Woman literally forced a country to change its laws
The political pressure from Lelio's film directly pushed Chile to pass its historic Gender Identity Law in 2018. He didn't just make cinema; he moved a nation.
The tragic part of losing him at just 52 is what we were about to get. He was mid-production on his new film in Santiago, right before he was set to direct Andrew Garfield as Carl Sagan
A genuine visionary whose best work was still ahead of him. RIP 💔

Why didn't you ask him? :(
Within hours of landing in the US from Bombay, my sore throat eased. The mild headache, coughing and sneezing disappeared.
It made me wonder: how much discomfort have we simply accepted as normal?
We check AQI like we check the weather. Except this is the air our children are breathing. Where is the urgency? Why isn’t this treated as a public health emergency?
The privileged can buy air purifiers. What does the person selling flowers at a traffic signal do? The construction worker? The child walking to school?
“Stay indoors” is advice only some can afford to follow.
Clean air. Clean water. Good roads.
These are the bare minimum citizens should be able to expect. Why are we still begging for them?

No matter what is happening in whichever part of the world, you can always rely on this fcuker to be holed up in his corner, frantically trying to figure out how to spin it in favour of Modi. Truly, no sycophant has sycophanted like this scophant. Fascinating specimen.
Movie so COWed (rw equivalent to goated?) they are running influencer campaigns with diaspora accounts shilling for the film in the US

Solid today is the first day of the rest of your life vibes. With the knowledge my friend is leaving even sooner and my "new adventure" begins today...

@AmeetSatam should burst crackers in his home. With windows closed. Enjoy the "culture".

Before you tell Indians to stay in India, look at what we are living through in Mumbai.
I live in Sion Kamghar Society, Sion East. Families are still inside this building. Look at the stairs we have to use. Look at the rubble around our homes.
Our redevelopment involves Puri Developers. Residents are demanding an investigation into alleged coercion by the developer and the society committee.
Our lift does not work. Residents say attempts to repair it are being blocked. Imagine carrying water and groceries up these broken stairs or needing medical help.
We depend on water tankers because we are not receiving BMC water. Residents say the building has been represented as unoccupied.
WE ARE STILL HERE. These are our homes.
Domestic workers have been stopped from coming upstairs. Grocery deliveries and even medicines have reportedly been obstructed. Recently, dead fish were dumped across the floors. We want those responsible identified and held accountable.
How much must everyday life deteriorate before a family gives in and leaves?
Wings A–D were demolished after being classified C1. Residents report that around half the affected families are without transit rent amid disagreements over redevelopment terms. Some have sold their flats under financial pressure.
Residents also allege that E Wing flats, many belonging to committee members, were vacated before the A–D demolition and before the IOD was obtained. Utilities were disconnected, and dismantling work left dust and debris.
Now residents of F Wing approximately 12 years old and, according to residents, not classified C1 are being pressured to vacate.
We are Jain and Hindu families. Our faith, our homes and our dignity deserve respect. Nobody should have to endure these conditions.
There have been repeated police visits. Yet we are still living like this. We are taking our fight to the High Court, but we need water and safe access TODAY.
To the Chief Minister, Municipal Commissioner, Police Commissioner, elected representatives, @Shivsenaofc and @Cockroachisback : please come here. Meet the families still living inside. See these conditions for yourselves.
We need an urgent inspection, restoration of water, safe access, lift repairs and an independent inquiry into residents’ complaints.
A family should be able to refuse unacceptable redevelopment terms without fearing that daily life will become unbearable.
This is the reality behind the word “redevelopment” for us.
Photos attached. Videos and supporting records below. Please share so our complaints are finally heard.
