A 10 year-old boy from Japan discovered that butterflies can remember their time as caterpillars.

Jo Nagai noticed his caterpillars still loved him after turning into butterflies, and the affection he had for them led to a genuine scientific discovery.

@biliamgallagher You mean ARTISTIC

Delhi is simultaneously an unlivable dystopia and one of the most magical visions of a city you see in fragments all around.

Exclusive: ‘Stop making people heroes overnight.. whatever problems we are facing in this country is because we have made one person bigger than the Constitution and the country.. we do this with not just politicians but all celebrities and it must stop’ @abhijeet_dipke responds to a Qs on him being projected as a hero!

When @Wangchuk66 was detained, the BJP IT cell called us anti-national, Chinese agents, foreign-funded, and every other label they could manufacture.
Today, because we called the Congress' protest at PM's residence insincere, Congress trolls are calling us Sanghis, RSS and BJP stooges.
Different flags. Same playbook. The rot has infected our entire political culture.
India needs more than just a change of government. It needs a change in the very grammar of politics, where disagreement is met with dialogue, not demonisation; where patriotism is measured by integrity, not party affiliation; and where truth matters more than tribal loyalty.

All said and done, the boy refused to shed his identity as a staunch Ambedkarite just to fit into a palatable box that Gen Z would relate to.
If anything, more Gen Zs have chanted Jai Bhim in the last five days than millennials have in their entire lifetime- all thanks to him.

Jai Bhim!! 🫡 @abhijeet_dipke

Thank you, Hon’ble CJI. Without you, this wouldn’t have been possible.

Big hug❤️

#Breaking : Delhi police has employed “Ikshana” an advanced, AI-powered mobile CCTV surveillance vehicle at the protest site, featuring 360-degree cameras, facial recognition, and real-time command room feed to surveil the youth.

In 1997, this man was the ABVP National Secretary and was just about to join the Bharatiya Janata Party. There was a paper leak in Odisha and there was a major protest. This man participated in them. He was beaten by the police.

"We staged a protest against the Odisha government, in front of the secretariat. Around 1,500 students joined us there. While the protest was peaceful, the police charged against the activists. He was badly beaten up at that time. He had a few fractures too."

Who is he? Mr Dharmendra Pradhan. Imagine that Dharmendra Pradhan was protesting against paper leaks in 1997 and was beaten!

There is an amazing Indian Express article about him. Linked below. The irony? One of the interviewees says:

"under Pradhan's regime, the students will have more scope for dissent. "It is natural for students to be anti-establishment."

And @iitroorkee our money funds you. Don’t you DARE tell our kids to forego their constitutional right to free speech & protest. Retract this email & apologise. Students ignore these bootlickers.

The forces get ready with their riot gear outside Jantar Mantar.

Ironically, Gandhi looks on right above them.

[The Hindu @the_hindu]

JUST IN | Massive crowds several thousands strong gathered at Jantar Mantar as mobile internet was shut down in parts of central Delhi. Protesters have had sporadic clashes with authorities according to emerging visuals. Even as security forces tried to hold the crowds at bay, people gathered in batches of hundreds at the Jantar Mantar protest area and crowded Tolstoy Marg on the north end of the protest strip. CJP leaders appealed to protesters to demonstrate peacefully. "India's youth have shown that they're not like the Gen Z of other countries," Gitanjali J. Angmo, activist Sonam Wangchuk's wife said from the protest site's stage. The speakers' remarks are inaudible beyond just a hundred metres from the protest stage, as chanting crowds drown out instructions from protest leaders and security forces' loudspeakers alike. Crowds spilled in and out from a narrow entry point at Janpath, where traffic has been heavily restricted.

[Damn. @Theonenameddamn]

Fools think it's about CJP vs. BJP, but it's actually about the failed education system and a lack of accountability for its failure.

I am at Safdarjung hospital in Delhi where @Wangchuk66 has been admitted. Nothing should be administered to him orally or intravenous without take consent from me, his family and his doctors who have been monitoring his health for the past 20 days.

[How I Write Clips @PerellClips]

David Sedaris thinks that if we just lived for the plot, we'd have material to write anything. He explains:

"My friend asked me what I did in the afternoon. I said, 'I went to the post office.' He replied, 'Why would you do that? You don't even need to go to the post office. If you have something you want mailed, you have the hotel called FedEx and they come and pick it up.'"

"I don't want to live like you. I want to go to the post office. And I went to the post office and it was remarkable. Or sometimes you go to the post office and the person is just grumpy and you can even get something out of that."

"I wanna live. I wanna be out there. I don't wanna sit at home and order everything online, and use all the shortcuts."

My spouse saying to the four year old about his brother, "He is telling you about it because he's excited, not because he thinks you don't know." And that, my friends, is also a lesson I need to hear.
