One of the worst things AI has done to academia and writing is that now if you end your essay with a pithy line, they’ll take you out the back and shoot you

So many people don’t know the difference between subsidisation and regulation. So many people also don’t know the difference of sitting in a train for 6-12hrs and sitting in for 2 days. So many people don’t know that the poor don’t exactly enjoy spending their lives commuting

So many people also don’t know that advocating for a safer, better, faster railway system and more reasonable airfare prices need not be mutually exclusive positions

And that’s how they brought down poverty in India. By changing the definition of poverty

Genuine question. Does it even make sense to apply to so many programs?? I thought applying for a PhD entails first reaching out to a potential supervisor and trying to build a relationship with them and working out a potential research q and then applying???

Who asked for it to be subsidised? But a 700% fare increase is insane. They were seeking regulation

Air travel is not an essential service and shouldn't be subsidized. Idk what to tell you people

You miss this Bollywood because no one cared if the actor name was Rehman or Rahul. No one cared if rehman married puja aur Dsouza married aarti. No one cared if villian was varun and the hero was abir. We were living in a true secular world

I am as far left as is humanly possible but india needs anti-homeless people infra, children who beg on traffic signals will vandalise your car, or scratch it with coins, make sexually abusive gestures at you and pour sticky liquid on your windshield if you refuse to pay up

🧵Update on SC hearing against Trans Act 2026: The India branch of a UK-based TERF org, Women's Declaration International, filed a petition in SC to argue that trans women are not women. The petition misreads NALSA & suggests: trans rights come at the cost of (cis)women’s rights.

Even a single billboard on the water is one too many. Light pollution harms human health as much as noise does, and it is regulated in many of the countries Mumbai wants to emulate. In August 2024, Awaaz sent suggestions and objections to the BMC's draft Hoardings Policy, which allowed unrestricted lighted hoardings across the city. In May, we wrote to the CM objecting to billboards along Bandra's coastal promenades. We attached policies from the US and UK to our objections. Yet Mumbai is now facing lighted billboards in our marine waters. Scientists and experts say floating billboards would bring "concentrated, high-radiance beacons right at the waterline, completely erasing natural marine dark corridors." Light from these LEDs can reach 40m underwater and disrupt plankton that feed in darkness, the base of our marine food chain. India endorsed global guidelines on light pollution for migratory wildlife in 2020. Why are we ignoring them now? timesofindia.indiatimes.com/… @CMOMaharashtra @mybmc @mpcb_official @timesofindia

Literally what is the fucking point of this except pure, unbridled hatred for humanity?? Like there isn’t even a monetary advantage to this nonsense. Driven by nothing but a desire to make life worse

The sea is all we have. For the million working class in Mumbai, the sea is all there is. For relief, for leisure, for a place to sit and talk with friends, that’s all there is. And they want to take it away for no other reason but to make us more miserable
