Noticed many Indian American influencers get their highest engagement on “cook with me & mom” videos. Get followers from that content & then transition more & more to other things acting like that’s not why they have followers.
@Meera8759@NalinisKitchen Come to the SF Bay Area. I haven’t seen a $51 temple darshan in a minute. Here you pay the temple fee, priest fee (depending on accommodation or travel) plus groceries and Pooja supplies. How should I provide proof? Saw my priest on the freeway and see his car parked. Ask around
I just woke up to a call from India. A family friend called and described his son’s situation. His son lost his job on an H-1B visa and needs to return to India in 60 days if he doesn’t find another. His son has already completed 52 days and has 8 more left. I listened and asked, “You are the one who always keeps posting that India has developed a lot under Modi, NRIs should return and serve India, America is bad, etc., on WhatsApp status. So what’s wrong with your son coming back?” He got triggered at first but later felt ashamed because I had shown him his reality.
This is the situation of the average misguided Andh Bhakt WhatsApp uncles in India.
My husband usually takes my son to practice.
Today I took him, sitting here listening to the moms talk is my personal hell.
This is why I have no friends.
Nobody is coming to save your aging parent.
Not Medicare.
Not the hospital.
Not their primary care doctor.
When your mom gets discharged on 14 medications and three specialist referrals…
The person coordinating all of it is usually an exhausted daughter with a full-time job.
We need to talk about that.
I believe we now have evidence of FIFA's World Cup ticketing shell game: FIFA is colluding with third-party resale platforms for its own supply management.
Look at this SeatGeek map (secondary market!) for Saudi Arabia vs Cape Verde. The circled areas are not random single resale tickets, but large, contiguous blocks of seats: entire rows and swaths in sections 101/102, 112/113, 119/120, 134–137, 139, ...
The blue circles appeared weeks ago, then the purple blocks suddenly showed up a day or two ago, and the red blocks seem to have appeared recently too.
That's not what ordinary fan or even commercial scalper resale looks like who resell pairs, fours, and scattered seats. Instead, this looks like inventory being dumped in bulk onto secondary markets, at prices below FIFA's official site.
Why doesn't FIFA just lower prices on its own site Probably because official price cuts could trigger refund demands, chargebacks, or consumer-protection headaches from fans who already bought at much higher prices.
Instead FIFA keeps official prices high, avoids openly admitting the market-clearing price is lower, and moves unsold inventory through third-party resale platforms instead.
Imagine if a woman president crashed the economy and started a war with no end in sight, and her biggest, seemingly ONLY concern was building a ballroom and redecorating the White House.
Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas
