I’ve always had a thing for shoes. Almost an indecent romance with a well-crafted heel. To understand that obsession, I went down into the industrial guts of Agra.
That’s where I met Ismail. Full story:

I woke up to a PR email with the right keywords in the subject line: Nikhil Kamath, Rishi Sunak, Akshata Murty, AI, youth, India. Inside: 2 PR notes, a list of story angles (apparently journalists have forgotten how to have an original thought) and a list of appropriate quotes
The Indian Government recently issued a safety alert on one of the safest anti-inflammatory drugs, mefenamic acid based on one of the rarest side-effects, virtually unrecorded by Indian pharmacovigilance.
In this brilliant article, @verma_shivani12 reports for @TheKenWeb on why this alert was illogical, irrational, fearmongering and...just weird.
With inputs from me (based on my evidence-based post on mefenamic acid) and @DrCuterus
Bottom line: Mefenamic acid, popularly known by the brand name "Meftal" is safe to consume for its recommended uses (so women, please dont worry). The Indian Government is doing strangely confusing things in healthcare and public health that one cannot make out any meaning from it.

I learned that politely asking a store manager 'when's your next sale?' is akin to triggering an epic scornful slow eye roll. 🙄 As a duly paying customer, I'll ask about SALE incessantly if I please. Retail peasant, bring me discounts and hold that attitude. 😈
This delightful piece by @Shrabonti has all the facts, trends and feelz but misses out the actual origin of Darshinis - the urban legend of a certain R. Prabhakar, a local angry young man from Bangalore in the 70s, who invented the Darshini concept. I learnt about him from a lovely chapter in the book Askew by the legendary TJ George. Time for a thread? @ajit_bhaskar

5 things I have learned from Twitter:
1. Thoughts expire in 280 characters.
2. The world urgently needs your breakfast and opinions.
3. Hashtags make movements.
4. Twitter's bird logo trains you like a lab rat.
5. Your tweets are outdated already.
Employee drudgery: yearning for slippers and sofa. Entrepreneurial adventure: yearning for wine and dine.
The dream life always seems to be the one not currently being lived.😑
