@peeleraja This will never not be insane to me. These discordant science people are a unique feature of India. Doesn’t seem to be as commonplace in any other modern-day rational society. Almost a collective ‘cognitive-dissonance movement’.
@peeleraja The amount of times you use the provocative ‘kannad’, but quote dvg, are Bengali but probably don’t rush to watch Nilanjan Chaudhary plays at shankarangara, and you discuss lesser known artists—tells me that you’re an old time Bangalorean of your own kind, peele. And I see you 🤍
And why exactly isn’t she in any of these attached pictures, when you exclusively write about what “Dia has done”?
You don’t find this bizarre, and that is very much the problem.
Y’all wonder why actors don’t speak up ? (Damned if you do, damned if you don’t!)
Apart from the routine haranguing by the usual, brain-dead suspects, there’s also this! Of course punch up yaar, actors ki mental health ka kya hai. Aaye din suicides kar ke salacious news cycles ko feed bhi karna to artist ka kartavya hona chahiye. Haina?
Women with privilege will be shamed if say anything outside the syllabus. Lipstick, bikini, GRWM, OOTD, make-up haul et al.
Just FYI, @deespeak is involved with a bamboo paper company, (means no trees are cut to manufacture paper), and WITHOUT, a plastic recycling start up that makes very cool sunglasses. She’s also produced a lovely short on the climate, it screens at PardaFaash, Mumbai, tomorrow 3.07.26.
Check these things out, because if you can bully a 5 year old, you can also run a basic google search na.
She gifted me 1100 trees as a wedding gift and and inspired me to gift trees to the Press in turn when my own baby girl was born. See photos?
She doesn’t own a Jaguar LOL, I have only seen 2 electric cars ever. And if she was imperfect in the past, oh please forgive her dear kind lord, show mercy!
Dia does more for ecological restoration in a day - than YT bloggers (who could well give Perez Hilton a run for his money) or arguably you - do in a whole year.
Those who want to do good in the world, do so at a great personal cost. So please discourage them, troll them properly from that super comfy armchair. Call them hypocrites because the urgent work today, right now, is to shame them.
However, they will do as they must regardless of you because that’s their unwavering purpose.
Tag her next time yaar, why not silence her appropriately. She should know na YOU don’t approve.
Actually, Peeleraja, why not write a Substack ? Heard it pays well.
✌🏽
@theliverdoc How has a year gone by since this, and it somehow feels like we’ve regressed even further back.
(Were this to happen today, it feels like no one would’ve been too shocked, meaning people seem to have tuned out science and rationalism even more.)
@PPuzhu what a delight <3
(And for another day and another mood, allow me to share this version of the song with you, if you haven't hear it already https://t.co/ziZoZCI5kq)
@PPuzhu When I look at the years lost for not taking to the deliciously holy beings early on, I feel so sad. I could’ve eaten with complete abandon before the onset of “seems-like-this-is-high-in-saturated-fats-itis”, like how I ate uddina vade or rancid oil bhajji then.
@farzana_versey I think we discuss the radicalisation of young people a lot but we don’t discuss the boomers - if this wasn’t opportunism it was probably WhatsApp radicalisation. Could be a bit of both actually.
