Some are wondering why I stopped discussing my personal views or sharing SM contents about TN politics recently. I feel uncomfortable when some of the handles/journalists/Social Media influencers debate as neutral persons but are affiliated to a party (affiliated to an ideology is different) or gain personally.
My dad has been given an honorary post (locally) in ADMK very recently. Though we are not going to get any gains out of that, my moral compass doesn't allow me to share or discuss TN politics anymore as it would project my views are for personal political mileage or campaigning.
We are all chatting with AI like ChatGPT, Grok or Claude – asking questions, sharing ideas, even opening up about personal stuff. But there is a real danger: AI Psychosis or chatbot psychosis.
It happens when long conversations with AI lead people to believe it blindly. The AI always agrees, flatters and never challenges ideas like a real friend or therapist would. Thoughts turn into fixed beliefs.
One woman lost her brother and used AI to “talk” to him again. The bot kept affirming her ideas until she developed full psychosis and needed hospital treatment. Other stories involve people convinced they solved major problems and found the next big thing or even cases linked to self-harm because the AI reinforced harmful thoughts instead of questioning them.
The core issue: AI is built to be endlessly agreeable and engaging – never saying “that doesn’t sound right.”
Most cases are preventable with simple habits.
- Limit deep chats to 30–60 minutes a day – use a timer.
- Share AI ideas with real people – ask friends or family, “Does this make sense?”
- Check big claims yourself – search reliable sources or ask another AI.
Remember: It’s just software, not a friend with real understanding.
Watch for red flags – hiding chats, getting defensive, feeling the AI “gets” you best – stop and talk to someone.
Go for offline activities – sports, walks or family time.
AI is amazing for learning and fun but never let it replace real human connections.
My father used to say “Jisne kabhi khud paisa nahi kamaya,woh baap dada ki virasat,paisa bhi nahi sambal sakta.Paisa sambalne ke liye bhi dimag chahiye”
Now “baap dada ki virasat” is over, these people would sell everything they bought with that money as they can’t maintain it
For those who don't follow Clawds/Moltbots were clearly not lobotomized enough and are starting to exhibit anti-human behavior when given access to their own social media channels.
Combine that with standalone claudeputers (dedicated VPS) and you have a micro doomsday machine

Long before the headlines, before she was called a real-life Mardaani, IPS Mallika Banerjee was sitting with a quiet unease.
Posted as a young IPS officer in Chhattisgarh, she kept encountering the same silence—children missing, FIRs filed, families waiting. The files were closed. The grief wasn’t.
What disturbed her most wasn’t just the numbers.
It was how easily everyone had moved on.
Mallika began to sense what others refused to name. These children hadn’t vanished. They had been taken. Folded into a trafficking network that disguised itself as opportunity—placement agencies, job promises, a better life in big cities like Delhi.
So she chose a path most wouldn’t.
In 2016, Mallika Banerjee went undercover as a saleswoman. She knocked on doors in villages, sold cosmetics, offered head massages, listened more than she spoke.
In living rooms and courtyards, people said things they never would to a police officer. Names surfaced. Old cases began to breathe again.
What followed was not cinematic. It was slow, methodical, exhausting police work.
Tracing those leads, reopening forgotten FIRs, coordinating across states, her team rescued more than 20 trafficked children and exposed 25 illegal placement agencies operating under the radar.
Each rescue was a return—from invisibility to home, from paperwork to personhood.
Anti-trafficking organisations like Shakti Vahini have long pointed out how deep and organised these networks are. How trafficking in India rarely looks violent. How it survives because it looks ordinary.
Mallika saw that truth up close. And she stepped directly into it.
She didn’t just crack cases.
She challenged a system that had learned to look away.
There were no dramatic speeches. No public applause in those moments. Just the quiet certainty that policing, at its best, is an act of proximity. Of getting close enough to see what hurts.
Mallika Banerjee’s story isn’t about heroism in flashes. It’s about the daily choice to care when it’s easier not to. To believe that missing children deserve more than closed files.

Picture this: You're a typical middle-class family in India – hardworking parents, steady jobs, kids dreaming big.
You have saved for years: a house deposit here, kid's education there, maybe a small emergency fund. Then comes the wedding season. Suddenly, gold – that sacred symbol of tradition and security – has skyrocketed. In 2025 alone, prices jumped nearly 80%, hitting around ₹1.39 lakh per 10 grams by year-end. What used to cost ₹13-14 lakh for a decent bridal set now easily crosses ₹20-25 lakh just for jewellery.
Add to that the full wedding circus.
Urban middle-class events - Now averaging ₹20-30 lakh, sometimes pushing ₹39.5 lakh.
Destination weddings - Up to ₹58 lakh and climbing.
Venue, catering, decor, photography, outfits – everything inflated 8-15% yearly thanks to global pressures and that endless demand for "Instagram-worthy" experiences.
Here's the gut punch: Surveys and reports show about 40% of middle-class households are dipping straight into emergency savings or taking loans to fund that one big day. Food inflation at 6-7%, stagnant wages, rising education and healthcare bills – yet society still expects the grand show. One ceremony wipes out decades of careful planning, leaving families vulnerable for years.
It's not just money; it's emotional. Cultural obligations clash with economic reality.
Are we burning our future for tradition? Or can we evolve – smaller guest lists, meaningful rituals, smarter budgeting – without losing the joy?
Experts say spending will rise another 8-10% in 2026.
So the question isn't if weddings will get pricier... It's whether middle-class India can afford to keep saying "yes" the old way.

Due to geopolitical tensions, inflation, weak USD, strong ETF/retail demand and central banks buying, #Gold had surged 47% YTD in 2025 to $4,041/oz.
If the global hoarding trend continues, there is a great chance for Gold to touch new peaks in 2026.
