It has taken me a long time but I have finally published my second book through Amazon KDP.
Yay, me!
It is an English school story set in 1959.
Why a school story? Because I grew up on them & wondered how a brown child would fare in that setting.

There are 40-50 lakh street food vendors in India.
Many of them depend on small commercial LPG cylinders to cook.
The sharp rise in LPG prices will hit them immediately.

The speakers here yesterday were unanimous that the Indian foreign policy is confusing and unsustainable.
India has only one policy, run by the Ministry of Anti-Minority Affairs. Everything else feeds into it.
We’re trying to raise just $100 to afford food and basic needs.
$25 won’t make you poor — but it could mean a meal for us today.
Please don’t scroll… comment, share, or help if you can. 🙏🍉💔

Not just in India. It is frustrating to see it being used as something positive or life affirmative when trafficking and abuse is pretty much the manner in which it happens across the world.
We even had a Hindi movie on it with Kunal Khemu, I think.
I am somewhere between an agnostic & a believer and currently we need to pray for West Bengal more than ever before. May our homeland be never captured by evil forces. Every Bengali, irrespective of faith, must come together pray in this difficult hour. May Bengal live forever!
In these times when most of big media doesn't want to talk about trade unions and portrays them as evil, good of @Meerasrini to talk about the trade union leaders and what she has learnt by interacting with them.
Clarence Thomas is the ultimate manifestation of how internalized white supremacy is cancerous for the black community… tokenized blacks that are invited into the enclave of whiteness are not accidental blips they are tools and weapons forged against the people who raised them
Powerlessness may force us to face death, but we still cling to a thin thread of hope.
A plea to compassionate hearts: Don't let us collapse in silence.

Disappointed that so early in their lifecycle @just_snabbit has started to discriminate against poor Muslims. There is no place for such companies that is trying to solve blue collar labour problems in India. I tried to reach out to the founder but he doesn't care to even respond. So posting it here. It's pathetic really.
Is it thanks to Zohran though?
I have nothing against him--except that he should be more pro-Palestinian or at least fire that Tisch lady (but I know politics is hard and I am no expert)--but I really am curious if this is just event that happened irrespective of him (or Modi).
Bhakts were abusing Zohran Mamdani when he was contesting for post of New York Mayor
After becoming Mayor, New York authorities have returned over 657 stolen Indian antiquities worth 14 million dollars.
He also urged UK to return Kohinoor to India.
What a fine Gentleman👏🏻👏🏻
But is it a woke opinion to erase historical record?
I think folks just ask that it be not given legitimacy. As that piece says, there should be a limit to tolerance or tolerance of intolerance leads to, well, where we are today with respect to fascism world over.
Erasing problematic media is bad. We must preserve history, even the worst parts of it. Pretending like it never existed erases the real humans hurt by such things, and prevents growth going forward.
