A 30-something's take on life in 140 characters or less

@Subhadip_barui9 Where is @narendramodi on this? With the World Cup going on rn, it’s impossible to ignore the irony: a nation of 1B people still can’t produce a team capable of qualifying.
This stadium conversion project is a perfect example of everything that’s wrong with #IndianFootball.

[Subhadip Barui 🇨🇵🇮🇳 @Subhadip_barui9]

Save Maharashtra football ! Save Neville Dsouza ground !

Share much as you can, it need to be discussed everywhere !

[Amrita Ashok @Amrita1986]

@AUThackeray @mybmc The @_AIFF_ should be ashamed. Years of poor leadership, no long-term vision, inadequate infrastructure, and minimal grassroots investment have left countless talented kids behind.

[Amrita Ashok @Amrita1986]

@IndianFootyBest @adnan_hugo @IndianFootball We need more people like @TheJohnAbraham - Across India, gifted kids at the grassroots level are being let down by poor planning, inadequate infrastructure, and a lack of investment.With 1billion people, India should be aiming far higher than simply hoping to qualify for a WC.

[Amrita Ashok @Amrita1986]

Watch https://t.co/i5A6VbJhCo for anyone interested in #Indianfootball. Across India, gifted kids are coming through at the U8 levels. With a population of 1B, India should be dreaming much bigger than simply hoping to qualify for a World Cup. Shame on you @_AIFF_

@dutweets 1-363568730661 this is the reference number. We have been trying since one week for cancellation of subscription. We are leaving country soon, and we will NOT be held responsible for any overdue fines.

[Amrita Ashok @Amrita1986]

@dutweets Waiting for more than a week for a callback from your cancellation dept.! Wondering if it’s the same waiting time for your *upgrade account* department as well! Don’t make it so hard!! #du

@TicketmasterBeF My lucky dip order for Rolling Stones Brussels concert was cancelled LAST MINUTE without any prior notice! What happened!!

[Amrita Ashok @Amrita1986]

@KHDA question: should a 3 year be subjected to PCR tests to be able to go back to school every time they have a runny nose? Can schools ban entry if you refuse to do such tests? Should they endure repeated swab tests every time they have a cough or fever??

@askhomecentre No response from @askhomecentre even after sending the DM!

[Amrita Ashok @Amrita1986]

@askhomecentre in a country that prides itself on customer service, #HomeCentre should be ashamed. Horrible post-sales service, rude delivery men and helpless customer service staff.

[Amrita Ashok @Amrita1986]

@askhomecentre I will send my order number by DM, country of residence UAE, but I would like you to post your actual follow up action here for all to see. So people can actually see how you resolved the matter. In fact, here’s the complain #3088550

[Amrita Ashok @Amrita1986]

Reading Human Kind by @rcbregman : interesting insights but still didn’t understand how he can explain away people like rapists, pedophiles, or animal abusers. What was the good intentions behind their individual actions?

[Amrita Ashok @Amrita1986]

@DSFsocial Hello.. When and where will you be announcing the winners of the Infinity Mega Raffle? How come there is no official website (https://t.co/BSSOWCUk4Z) and its just a re-direct to the https://t.co/schc4mWVOS site?

تتقدم جامعة حمدان بن محمد الذكية بترشيحها إلى #أوائل_الإمارات استكمالًا لرسالتها في إتاحة التعليم للجميع، إذ قدمت خلال جائحة كوفيد-19 وعبر مبادرة #الإمارات_تعلم_العالم دورات تدريبية للمعلمين عبر الإنترنت، بخمس لغات عالمية، وصلت إلى أكثر من 100 دولة وحضرها أكثر من 300,000 معلم.

@ahmedthesayed Haha! the one and only Planet Hollywood!

Just started @SamHarrisOrg meditation Waking Up course and already loving Sam Harris’ dulcet voice telling me to take a deep breath. Need this to get through the rest of 2020

Happy Solstice to All! Pandemic or not, the Earth still orbits & spins.

@sujayever @Wootsaw Wouldn’t it be nice though if we didn’t have to make such efforts to find these ‘hidden gems’ and for them to be made mainstream for everyone to enjoy?
And not to forget that, for those who live outside India, mainstream is all you have access to ..🤷🏻‍♀️
