@sanketag31 so well articulated!

Spend 10k on fitness events LOSER, spend 10k on concerts LOSER 🤷‍♀️

[shivani @filtercoffee__]

When you attend these events you realise how terribly managed other much more expensive, equally large events (read: Concerts) are.
If getting fit = validation, i highly recommend it

[Ankit Kedia @Ankittskedia]

HYROX fitness event in Bengaluru saw around 9,000 participants.

They charged ₹9,000 per person to participate, which comes to roughly ₹8.1 crore made in a single day.

Same trend is showing up in marathons. People are paying ₹3,000–₹5,000 just to run for a day.

Being fit is good. But why are people spending this much on a one-day event? It feels less about fitness and more about validation.

Thank you for the PSA. Will use this endlessly

The easiest way to trigger entire Bengaluru twitter is to inform them that Whitefield, established around 1882 is older than Jayanagara - 🤣

@sanketag31 Such a good book! ☕️/10

There are very few movies I loved as a kid that I still love as an adult. Rock On is definitely one of them

100s of small improvements this year.

Obviously you must reduce the dog population & vaccinate. @MCD_Delhi couldn’t even sterilise.

And 2 @indSupremeCourt judges, clearly out of their depth, suo moto ask the same MCD to build shelters? Thanks for your creative suggestions- but what about the 80k pending cases?

[Parminder Singh @parrysingh]

5 Countries that tackled the stray dog issue humanely. Lessons India must heed:

Portugal – Nationwide sterilisation & vaccination drives, coupled with adoption incentives. Euthanasia banned for healthy animals.

Netherlands – Achieved “zero stray” status without killing a single dog through mass sterilisation, microchipping, strict breeding laws, and heavy fines for abandonment.

Turkey – Stray dogs vaccinated, neutered, and released back into their territories with food and shelter stations across cities.

Chile – Mobile veterinary units provide free spay/neuter services in rural and urban areas, making prevention accessible to all.

Italy – Regional laws forbid killing strays; dogs are housed in municipal shelters until adoption, with public campaigns to encourage responsible pet ownership.

These countries recognised that compassion and control are not opposites. Humane solutions require patience, resources, and respect for life - not mass culling disguised as ‘protection.’

[Snehesh Alex Philip @sneheshphilip]

I wish the Supreme Court judge took so much active notice of the large pending cases before the Court or taken action against rapists, murderers, molesters roaming the streets as humans or the corruption in the system that affects every common man

[Vir Das @thevirdas]

Here are my indies. Stoopy and Lucy. Off the streets of goa, now full time Mumbaikars. Praying, hoping, waiting for an India that cares for their kind, provides adequate state resources for their care, and showcases a humanity we can all be proud of….a humanity that resides in numerous NGOs and animal rights groups currently fighting hard for them.
