Some Sunday cheer: The 'corona sandesh' is apparently a covid-awareness sandesh. "It comes with literature about the dreaded virus, a noble venture, but I am still mystified by those who would want to bite into a sweet named after a virus," writes @sandipr https://t.co/BW3hWvFVFm

So the boy wrote a #pinkchaddicampaign inspired story yesterday and in a serendipitous development discovered it was @chasingiamb 's Happy Budday too. Hey @TheLadiesFinger here is one for your books/portal.

#KillingEve's humour is specifically female, with proudly feminine preoccupations and inside jokes. And that's part of why it works | @TheLadiesFinger

Ah #DelhiMetro you're always trending for all the right(eous) reasons! Throwback to when I interviewed a very special specie on how she makes her way in the city - us #Delhi women - for @TheLadiesFinger https://t.co/N5SMOjmWR0

After #PayalTadvi's death can we allow medical education to continue to pretend to be casteless? https://t.co/zZFXRKcC7O

The Egyptian had been biting his tongue as immigrants often do. Finally exasperated, he snapped at the Omani, “My bathroom is older than your culture, okay?” https://t.co/Gk1ZhcUM2c

Dear @FeminismInIndia @IndiaMeToo @TheLadiesFinger the CJI's story of sexual harassment and abuse of Power allegations appears to be dying out from mainstream media. It is important and should be kept alive to demand justice and due process. With hope.

No, Ranjan Gogoi's accuser did not withdraw from the enquiry, she rejected it and it's important that we understand why. https://t.co/FDUuEtv3QQ

The hijab means different things everywhere. What does it mean in the wake of Sri Lanka's recent ban of face coverings?https://t.co/uWlkN9GReH

RTing sheepishly. Thank you @parodevi :)

[Paromita Vohra @parodevi]

P.S. After writing this I was like this does not fit into any publishable category, where to send? But jiska koi nahin hota uska @TheLadiesFinger hota hai - so thank you India's best feminist zine for carrying it

[Tanya George @tanyatypes]

"freedom to make some mistakes and figure out your path requires an absence of scrutiny just as much as it sometimes requires help and support. ... and I needed that space to reveal it to myself, or reveal myself to it." @parodevi is bestest at saying all the feels

[Technovation @technovation]

"So why can’t she be the human face of this effort rather than some titular male head? It’s time to accept a different model when we think of who is a ‘regular’ scientist ... solving complex problems of the world."
Well said, @TheLadiesFinger #womeninSTEM https://t.co/b00R6cX5WP
