स्वयं सारा प्लान करवाओ, और स्वयं आश्चर्यचकित हो जाओ क��� यार, ये सब हो रहा है मेरे लिए… एकदम से सरप्राइज़ कर दिया आप लोगों ने। रुकिए, हैशटैग तो लगा लूँ।

The UN has voted for a new world map. The old Mercator projection made Africa look similar in size to Greenland, but Africa is actually 14 times larger. The new map fixes that distortion.

164 countries voted yes. Only 1 country, the US, voted against. The champion of justice.

Why No Pizza, No bread pakoda, No burger at Jharkhand student's protest ?

Because they are real students and not getting any funding to protest.

They don't even have plates to eat.

But no liberals are crying for them on Instagram 🤡

Shame on such teachers.
A 10-year-old student of Etah’s St. Paul’s School was allegedly beaten so badly by a teacher that his eardrum was damaged all for liking a fake school page on social media. The case is now with Etah Police.

Last one on this topic, and I have been holding this in myself for a while.

For centuries, class divides kept the labor of the poor invisible to the rich. Factory workers toiled behind walls, farmers in distant fields, domestic help in backrooms. The wealthy consumed the fruits of that labor without ever seeing the faces or the fatigue behind it. No direct encounter, no personal guilt.

The gig economy shattered that invisibility, at unprecedented scale.

Suddenly, the poor aren't hidden away. They're at your doorstep: the delivery partner handing over your ₹1000+ biryani, late-night groceries, or quick-commerce essentials. You see them in the rain, heat, traffic, often on borrowed bikes, working 8–10 hours for earnings that give them sustenance. You see their exhaustion, their polite smile masking frustration with life in general.

This is the first time in history at this scale that the working class and consuming class interact face-to-face, transaction after transaction. And that discomfort with our own selves is why we are uncomfortable about the gig economy. We want these people to look our part, so that the guilt we feel while taking orders from them feels less.

We aren't just debating economics. We are confronting guilt. That ₹800 order might equal their entire day's earnings after fuel, bike rent, and app cuts. We tip awkwardly, or avoid eye contact, because the inequality is no longer abstract. It's personal.

Pre-gig era, the rich could enjoy luxury without moral discomfort. Labor was out of sight. Now, every doorbell ring is a reminder of systemic inequality. That's why debates explode. It's not just policy. It's emotional reckoning. Some defend the system (“they choose it”), others demand change (“this isn't progress, its exploitation”).

And here’s the uncomfortable twist: the unsaid ask of clumsy ‘solutions’ isn’t dignity. It is about returning to invisibility.

Ban gig work and you don’t solve inequality. You remove livelihoods. These jobs don’t magically reappear as formal, protected employment the next day. They disappear, or they get pushed back into the informal economy where there are even fewer protections and even less accountability. Over-regulate it until the model breaks, and you achieve the same outcome through paperwork instead of slogans: the work evaporates, prices rise, demand collapses, and the people we claim to protect are the first to lose income.

And then what happens?

The rich get their old comfort back. Convenience returns without faces. Guilt dissolves. We go back to clean abstractions and moral posturing from a distance. The poor don’t become safer, they become invisible again: back in cash economies, back in backrooms, back in shadows where regulation rarely reaches and dignity isn’t even debated.

The gig economy just exposed the reality of inequality to the people who previously had the luxury of not seeing it. The doorbell is not the problem. The question is what we do after opening the door.

Visibility is the price of progress. We can either use this discomfort to build something better (which we keep doing continuously as delivery partners are our backbone), or we can ban and over-regulate our way back into ignorance. One of those choices improves lives. The other simply helps the consuming class feel virtuous in the dark.

[THE SKIN DOCTOR @theskindoctor13]

The heart holds on longer than life understands.

Sanjeev Kumar loved Hema Malini, but she refused his proposal and married Dharmendra. The rejection broke him so deeply that he never married and remained alone until his death in 1985.

Sulakshana Pandit, who worked with Sanjeev Kumar in films, was in love with him. She proposed to him, but he told her he could never move on from Hema. So she too remained unmarried all her life. In her own words, she could never get over her feelings for Sanjeev Kumar.

Sulakshana Pandit passed away yesterday, on the same date Sanjeev Kumar had died in 1985. Two lives, connected by love that was never returned. A quiet, lifelong tragedy.

Om Shanti.

Samay is a comic. Non-comics go there and try to be like him and fall flat and splat like the harebrained beerbiceps guy.

One, the majority of Indian comedy fans don't really know what dark humour is. They think vulgar is dark. Unfortunately, most comics are no better than these fans.

Two, no vulgar comedy should make it to YouTube. What should have had a tiny, in-camera audience travels far and wide with little restrictions.

Comics should regulate this before the government does. YouTube too has to crack down on such content because YT is increasingly playing on TV screens at homes.

A cab driver kicked passengers out of his taxi because they were abusing India.

Apparently an Indian leftist girl was sitting in his taxi with her Pak!stan! BF, they were continuously praising Pak!stan & abusing India which he couldn't tolerate.

Salute to him. We need more such people
