I have a lecture I give in South Asian history courses whose informal title is "Hitler to Modi." There's robust evidence to justify analyses that compare and link these two. But Indian students are being denied education these days. It's a shame. www.tribuneindia.com/news/haryana... #Modi #Hitler

India lose because of two terrible deliveries

A headline from new India.

A "milestone" for Modi. "Nehru, Nehru, Nehru" He holds the "world record" of invoking another person' persona & name greatest number of times. No other leader ever comes close. .

What!? I have autoimmune diseases and read all the times I’m informed. The doctors, scientists, epidemiologists, etc, etc, etc, were all right all along. Those who dropped out of high school or failed high school science, etc,etc,were wrong the whole time! #Shocked

🚨 NEW: One of the largest COVID-19 vaccine studies ever (28 MILLION people in France) just dropped. Results? • 74% lower risk of death from severe COVID-19 • 25% lower risk of all-cause mortality • No increase in 4-year mortality #BlueSky #MedSky #IDSky #SciSky #NewsSky #PedsSky #ObSky #NurseSky

I'd argue that its 1965 release changed Rock and Roll for the better. It kicked open the doors and broke all the windows. Fiat sonus! Fiat musica! link.deezer.com/s/31N0B0eAqy...

Modi’s man, Amit Shah, is directly tied to assassination attempts of American and Canadian citizens (one successful and one failed). I repeat: Hindutva is violent. globalnews.ca/news/1151469...

Women Ruining Ruin! (This is a useful little thread. Funny to see these headlines assembled, and appalling.)

Wife came in and gave me a big hug earlier. Asked her what it was for. She said she's embracing her mistakes. New book out next week. Buy it now please. Otherwise more jokes. Signed edition from @waterstones here: waterstones.com/book/the-bur...

Socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor.

👀 New entry to the Timeline of Hindu Nationalist Assaults on Academics in North America, part of the #Hindutva Harassment Field Manual. The timeline covers 30 years of far-right attacks on individuals, institutions, and academic freedom. www.hindutvaharassmentfieldmanual.org/timeline #HigherEd

He's not kidding 😂 I watched Paul move around the stage for three hours and observed no stiffness in his movements. He doesn't even drink water between songs. Remarkable.

#MusicSky McCartney told the Alamodome audience that two of his grandchildren are in attendance. “Can you image watching your grandpa rock ’n roll?” he said, laughing.

#MusicSky Last night Paul McCartney played to a crowd of nearly 45,000 at the Alamodome. He played for 3 hours, with no intermission, and sang most (if not all) of the songs in their original key. He’s 83. Maybe I’m amazed 🙏

Watching McCartney is a very surreal experience. You are seeing Shakespeare direct his last play, or Picasso paint his last paintings. In 500 years, he and the Beatles will still be iconic. And you are seeing the original. This display was one of the best rock moments I've ever seen.

To recap Ohtani’s night: -1st leadoff HR by a pitcher in MLB history -1st postseason multi-HR game by a pitcher -1st game in MLB history with 3 HR & 10 strikeouts -1st player with 2 116+ mph HR in a game under Statcast (2015) -1st player with 2 career games w/2+ HR & 10+ K

Sobers Test was legendary tho. 150 not out, 6 wickets, another 166, 5 more wickets, 4 catches and a run out via direct hit

Am reading about Marina Corina Machado, and they may as well have given the prize to Trump.

Never understood the claim that the free market leads to competition when it always tends towards monopoly. 🤔

Unrestrained free speech is less harmful than unrestrained firearms.

So cringe-worthy. A sad reflection on the state of Indian higher education after years of far-right political interference and decimation. theprint.in/feature/lsr-...

Kroger will lay off ~1,000 employees. In December, it announced $7.5B in stock buybacks – which juice stock prices, enriching shareholders and boosting CEO pay. Just so happens that Kroger's last CEO was paid 457x its typical employee in 2024. Textbook corporate greed.

Hate & bigotry the primary diet of Hindutva to sustain itself.

Even if you don't like all of Mamdani's ideas, there's no way you don't like most of them. Most of his ideas are just big city common sense, not some radical communism. Free buses isn't radical communism. NYC was trying it out even before Mamdani entered politics. Kansas City too.

it is very difficult to get a man to connect the dots when his salary depends on him not connecting them

Unrestrained freedom of expression is less harmful than unrestrained access to firearms.

Walmart spent $35.3B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024, enough to give each of its 2.2M employees annual bonuses of $2,719. Last year, Walmart CEO Doug McMillon pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay of just $29,469. Textbook corporate greed.

Mentally challenged, lacking in critical thinking, wisdom & knowledge. Tomorrow, if someone were to tell him a tragic incident, he would laugh.

So last week, my brother, a voracious reader of sci-fi strongly recommended a book to me. I started reading it on Sunday. On Monday I read that the book, The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett has won the Hugo Award for best novel. I think that's a first for me. Closest was when I ++
