The souls of animals – superb meditation on what a soul is and what an animal is themarginalian.org/2025/02/2…

I need to find my replacement. 💔
My health is failing, and doctors say I may have to step down from running my rescue and animal shelter sooner than I ever imagined.
I’m looking for the human who will love these animals as fiercely as I do—someone ready to step up, lead, and protect these precious souls when I can no longer carry the weight.
Please RETWEET to help me find them. My animals are counting on us. 🐾👇

Watching Elon Musk this week has been a fascinating character study in the saviour complex of Western tech billionaires.
They arrive in your country selling you the future. Welcome them, and you’re a country that wants progress. Make them wait, and suddenly your people are victims who need rescuing from their own institutions by the chosen one.
It’s a pattern. When Thai rescuers didn’t use the mini-submarine Musk sent for the trapped boys, and diver Vernon Unsworth called the idea impractical, Musk attacked him as the “pedo guy.”
When Brazil’s Supreme Court ordered X to comply with its rulings, Musk called the judge a “dictator.”
The script rarely changes. Only the country does.
The colonial mindset isn’t always about wanting to rule a country. Sometimes it’s the assumption that you arrive as its saviour, and if the country doesn’t immediately recognise you as one, something must be wrong with the country.

Sorry to interrupt your Sunday, friends.
I really hesitated to write this, but if I don’t speak up today, I will be facing a severe financial crisis within a week or two.
To be clear, I am not asking for charity or financial help. I am asking for work.
I have been completely without work for the last three months. My last project ended on June 30th, and since then I have knocked on every door I know—calling, texting, meeting contacts, and following up.
People say they will try, but after that first talk, the silence takes over. Calls go unanswered or get cut after a couple of rings. I honestly don't know whether the industry is shifting because of AI or if my age (52) is working against me, but despite over 13 years of solid experience in the field, nothing has materialized.
Now, my savings are down to the very end. I can barely hold out for another week or two.
I am a professional content writer, translator, and speaker who is comfortable on stage and in front of the camera. I write and translate fluently across Gujarati, Hindi, and English, with Gujarati being my strongest suit.
Many of you already know my grasp of politics and my political writing, but I am equally adept at covering Bollywood and cricket. My priority is media houses, digital platforms, or publications, but I am open to any genuine writing or translation opportunity.
I can work remotely or take up assignments on-site anywhere in Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar, as I need to be close to my elderly mother to take care of her health.
Because my situation is urgent, I am especially looking for quick-turnaround freelance assignments or immediate projects where payments can be settled on submission.
If you or anyone in your circle has work, please reach out to me directly in my DMs.
A humble, earnest request: while I deeply value your warmth, please refrain from sending just "best wishes" or "stay strong" messages right now. I am fighting hard to stay out of a very dark headspace, and right now, only actual work leads can pull me through.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and thank you for your support. My inbox is open. 🙏

⚠️ New details on what happened inside the Flydubai cockpit, in Captain Smit Machchar’s own account to the Israeli PM:
1️⃣ The flight was normal. The co-pilot said he wanted to pray, something Machchar says was not unusual among local pilots.
2️⃣ Machchar faced forward while the co-pilot prayed behind him.
3️⃣ Four or five minutes later, Machchar says he was suddenly struck hard on the back of his head.
4️⃣ His first thought was catastrophic aircraft damage. Then the blows kept coming. He realised it was the co-pilot attacking him.
5️⃣ The initial blows left his vision severely blurred. He tried to fight back, but says he could barely see.
6️⃣ His next sensation was the aircraft plunging sharply. His memory of these moments remains fragmented.
7️⃣ He recalls managing to open the cockpit door once, but says the co-pilot apparently shut it again.
8️⃣ Lying on the cockpit floor, he could hear the aircraft rushing through the air and passengers screaming.
9️⃣ Machchar says he realised he had “one last fight” left. His thought was brutally simple: if he didn’t act, he was going to die.
🔟 He threw everything he had into reaching and opening the cockpit door. People outside were waiting to pounce. They entered, control was regained.

restricting access to parks at evening as if women are not getting raped almost everywhere is actually insane. restricting women from existing in public does not fucking solve this rape epidemic going on across india, it only reinforces the idea that women should stay at home

‘CCTV Cameras were not working’
Whose duty was it to ensure they do. Whose Park?
Also was being reported to be an unsafe place?
If so what was being done by the Park Authorities and the local police?
Where is the Beat System of policing? Who is the Beat Officer?
Where is staff of Park maintainance?
Where are watchmen if any?
Failure at diff levels of duty by ground agencies concerned facilitate such terrible incidents.
Girls too need to take due precautions before they choose visiting sites.
Precaution is not being afraid but being careful and wise.
As there are enuf vagabonds lurking out and at large.
Good that the arrests have been without loss of evidence.

DON'T MINCE WORDS !
What is happening with the IIT BOMBAY professor Dr Doolla is wrong! We neeed to stand up and fight against this injustice!
Education is being destroying this way. Who will stay in INDIA if this continues?
If we care about our beautiful INDIA, if we don't want brain drain, if we care for merit, let us stand up for Professor Dr Doolla!
2 other students committed suicide in IIT BOMBAY, they were from the GC.
We need to focus on IIT BOMBAY & why so many students committed suicide: not charge Professor Dr Doolla under the SC ST act.
TEAM BHARAT stands unconditionally with professor Dr Doolla.

Losing a pet produces grief that is clinically comparable to losing a human family member, and a 2021 study in BMC Geriatrics found that older women who lost a companion animal experienced impacts on their physical health, daily routines, and sense of purpose that lasted for months.
The study explored the lived experience of pet bereavement in older women and found themes of profound loneliness, loss of daily structure, and a sense that a piece of their identity had died with the animal. The women described losing not just a companion but a reason to get up in the morning, a reason to walk, and a reason to talk.
The grief is often dismissed. "It was just a dog" is a sentence that pet owners hear from people who have never had the relationship, and the dismissal compounds the pain. Disenfranchised grief, the term psychologists use for grief that society does not validate, makes the mourner feel they have no right to their own pain, which delays recovery and deepens isolation.
The bond between a person and a pet is not a lesser version of a human bond. Brain imaging studies show that the same regions activated by looking at a photograph of a child are activated by looking at a photograph of a beloved dog. The attachment system does not check species. It checks connection.
If you know someone who just lost a pet and you are wondering whether to send flowers or a card, send it. The research says the grief is real, the loss is structural, and the person is mourning something the rest of the world keeps telling them is small. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3442…

BENGALURU ANIMAL CRUELTY CASE: UPDATES
What we feared might be true. Primecare is very likely just the tip of the iceberg. The racket is much larger.
The accused veterinarian, when questioned about abducting street dogs, deliberately breaking their limbs to practice orthopedic surgery, said that "it happens everywhere" including the Hebbal Veterinary Hospital/University which trains most of the city's veterinarians.
We don't know for how long this has gone on. We don't know how many innocent animals we have lost to it.
And it is highly probable that this is happening throughout Karnataka and in other states too.
Wherever you are in India, if you care about community animals, start asking questions. Look at what is happening in veterinary colleges, teaching hospitals and private facilities in your city. Demand records. Demand oversight. Demand accountability.
This level of depravity must horrify every one of us. Instituionalised depravity. There are so many burning questions. Up until where in the hierarchy does this go?

BENGALURU ANIMAL CRUELTY
A case of animal cruelty beyond imagination has come to light in Bengaluru.
According to rescuers, street dogs were allegedly picked up and supplied to a private veterinary center, their bones deliberately broken, and the injured animals then used to practice orthopaedic surgery. Many reportedly died and were discarded. Reportedly twelve dogs and a cat have now been found at the premises, several of them in a bad condition.
The prime accused are Dr. Asif of Primecare Vet Hospital, Doddakannelli, and Dr. Manjunath, reportedly a second-year MVSc student associated with Hebbal Veterinary College. The police are investigating and so are the city's animal welfare organisations and groups to uncover the full extent of the crime.
If these allegations are established, the depravity of what happened is beyond comprehension. Animals were abducted, intentionally maimed, subjected to avoidable agony and treated as disposable surgical material by people associated with a profession whose most basic obligation is to relieve animal suffering.

We are fundraising for this family. Please support them-
Delhi PG Horror -The father's a taxi driver, the mom runs a small parlor from home. They struggled, took loans to send their boy to Delhi. Now he's dead- killed by corruption & callousness. I meet the parents of 18 year old Arpit Jaj & it's impossible not to weep listening to them and thinking of him dying under a giant slab of cement as a death trap of a building fell on him.
“Gareeb ko Kaun poochta hai” - Arpit’s mother asks me. The family lives in Dewas in Madhya Pradesh and struggled to pay the 16,ooo monthly rent the PG owners demanded.
And yet, in this moment of unspeakable grief, they opted to donate their son’s eyes. “Maybe another child can see the world he wanted to see”.
We are fund raising for the family so they can educate Arpit’s sister and also repay the loans they took to send him to Delhi. If you would like to help please donate directly to his father’s account
