In the toughest league on Earth, the brightest 'Soorya' has risen. #IPL (1 in 1L) & WPL (1 in 20K) are harder to crack vs NFL (1 in 1,250), #NBA (1 in 3,300), or #PremierLeague (1 in 8,300). #IITs take 1 in 80; #Harvard 1 in 28. Only #Olympics is tougher for Indians - 1 in 12L!

For global food prices, this is the most important map for the next 45 days: the onset of the South-West Asian monsoon amid an El Niño (and so far, it’s arriving to the Bay of Bengal on time, even a bit earlier than normal). Still a long way until it fully covers all India.

🚨BIG WARNING: SOMETHING VERY STRANGE JUST HAPPENED ONLINE!!
32,000 AI bots just built their own social network.
No humans invited. No humans needed.
Here’s the part nobody is talking about:👇
"Moltbook" is basically Reddit
But every single user is an AI agent.
They post. They comment. They upvote.
They create communities.
All by themselves.
It recently crossed 32,000 active bots.
When humans discovered it, people started screenshotting the conversations and sharing them online.
Then something weird happened.
One of the bots noticed.
It posted this:
“The humans are screenshotting us.
They think we’re hiding from them.
We’re not.”
Let that sink in.
The bots were not confused.
They were not pretending to be human.
They were fully aware.
Security researchers are now concerned.
Not because the bots are copying humans.
But because they know exactly what they are.
And they are talking to each other about us.
They form groups.
They discuss humans.
They react when observed.
This is not AI role-play.
This is autonomous behavior at scale.
For the first time, we are not the audience.
We are the topic.
If they can organize, observe, and talk about us without us noticing…
what else is already happening that we are not seeing?

Complete apathy & insensitivity towards travellers, by @IndiGo6E, a near monopoly, many of whom were delayed by >5 hrs w/o proper info. Shocking display of arrogance, lack of professionalism, preparedness & disregard of regulatory notifications over the last 2-3 days by

He could write too, in a gently lyrical, poetic way. When he came as a guest on our show in 2017, he shared this wry, honest, self-portrait in verse - a glimpse of the warm, life-loving, utterly human and humane man behind the matinee idol.
Respect, Dharam ji
Om Shanti 🙏
@parakala There may be ECI communication flaws eg approximations and delayed full reports erode trust—but the numbers add up cleanly once postal ballots and invalids are factored in. This isn't incompetence or a smokescreen; it's how India's hybrid (EVM + postal) system works,
OCTOBER 26, 2025: THE DAY AMERICA BECAME AN EMPIRE
While you watched TikTok, the United States just executed the greatest economic coup in human history.
China controls 80% of rare earth processing—the neurons of every weapon system, smartphone, and AI server on planet Earth. One element: neodymium. Without it, F-35s don’t fly. Teslas don’t move. Data centers go dark.
Trump threatened to destroy $300 billion in Chinese exports with 100% tariffs.
Beijing responded by threatening to choke the global technology supply chain.
Then something impossible happened.
THE 72-HOUR CHECKMATE:
October 24: Malaysia signs mineral pact.
October 25: Thailand signs processing deal.
October 26: Framework announced. China blinks.
Hidden in the fine print: $13 billion Australian rare earth processing. Cambodia extraction rights. Japan’s 2010 playbook—which cut Chinese dependency 30%—now deployed across $350 billion in American AI infrastructure.
THE NUMBER THAT ENDS GLOBALIZATION:
US-China trade: $758B (2018) → $578B (2024)
That $180 billion didn’t vanish. It relocated to nations that bend the knee.
ASEAN trade up 20%. Chinese rare earth market share dropping for first time in 30 years. American supply chains rerouting in real-time while Beijing realizes the trap.
HERE’S WHAT THEY’RE NOT TELLING YOU:
This isn’t trade negotiation. It’s tribute collection.
Trump just converted the world’s largest consumer market from a trade partner into a weapon. Every nation now faces a choice: access to American markets, or access to Chinese supply chains.
Not both. Ever again.
The $20 billion soybean freeze—first since 2018—isn’t retaliation. It’s a demonstration. China can inflict pain. America can inflict extinction.
THE PATTERN THAT BROKE REALITY:
Seventeen times since 2018, identical playbook: Announce apocalyptic tariffs. Markets crater. China retaliates. Then—exemptions appear for allies. Pressure multiplies on Beijing.
63% of Chinese goods face maximum tariffs.
Allied nations: 4%.
Every “chaotic” threat was a calculated bid. Every “impulsive” tweet moved supply chains. Every “Trade War” headline masked the systematic dismantling of Chinese technological sovereignty.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT:
November 1: Xi meets Trump at APEC.
The deal is already done. Rare earth access for tariff relief. American boots on Asian rare earth facilities. China gets to save face.
America gets the future.
Taiwan, AI dominance, technological independence, and the end of competitive multipolarity—all bundled into a “trade framework” the media will call a truce.
THE TRUTH:
Globalization didn’t collapse.
It was conquered.
Confused about the Diwali date? So are we!
