Ask not what your country can do for you.
Ask what your country can do for Gautam Adani.

I am not surprised some people can’t differentiate between countries and their sports teams.

. @Manekagandhibjp - Ma’am, a man in our layout in Bangalore is constantly trying to feed chocolate to the dogs. On Thursday we caught him pelting stones, and Friday again. The police came and and left without resolution. Yday he left cream biscuits with something on it. HELP!

A court has decided, on behalf of a woman, that she is healthy to give birth. The govt. will gladly finance medical costs. A foetus has outranked a woman’s autonomy, health, life. But please, raise your ‘nari shakti’ slogans and wax on about how empowered Indian women are.

Dear Ahmedabad,

You are pathetic. You are the kind of people who should only watch cricket on televisions. What you people shouted and chanted at Pakistan players yesterday was horrible. Something no other country would ever do. Unlike Hyderabad, where people knew how to sit in a stadium and watch a cricket match, it is sad that you people weren’t taught the most basic of things. Mannerism.

Here are some of the awful scenes at the stadium yesterday:

* Loud booing at Babar when he was speaking at the toss, making it hard for everyone to hear.
* Hindu religious chants at Babar while he was walking back to the dressing room.
* "We are your father" in Hindi chants.
* "Pakistan on our di***" in Hindi chants.

There are even worse chants I heard in videos that I cannot even type here. It is sad that Pakistan players had to go through this in a World Cup match where every game counts. But then again, horrible, horrible people, I must say.

About a month back, India did not want to visit Pakistan for security reasons for the Asia Cup, which eventually led the entire tournament into chaos. One would expect decency at least from the crowd since Pakistan set aside their ego and came to India anyway for the WC and did not retaliate like kids.

In the end, I guess nothing matters because in a decades time, we might as well change the tournament’s name to BCCI Cricket World Cup since India is literally controlling this sport in every sense.

[Aimun @bluemagicboxes]

And yet English supporters can visit Australia and vice versa. The journalists can go to matches. Neither boards sabotage the other. The stadium isn't named after a populist political leader who espouses hate against the other country.

It's really not that hard to get this.

We just don't talk enough about Menopause. It's not just me, but so many women in their 40's & 50's have a really hard time with their body & mind. This year, it got so bad I couldn't write for months. I felt hopeless, worthless. Medication is helping. Pls talk about menopause 🙏🏼

And that there are crores of people living here for decades in peace and harmony (while also struggling against the systemic issues to build a better world) and that it's a possibility.

[Siddarth K.M. (சித்தார்த் கோ.மு.) @Sidzepp]

If you are from Kerala and Tamil Nadu, it is absolutely necessary to keep informing your north Indian friends (in a non-condescending way) about the open and safe culture for minorities here in sports, arts, journalism, etc.

They should know such parts exist within India.

Here is a story of how a Tsunami brought about social change! It all began with a dream, quite literally! 🧵👇🏾

[TheLiverDoc™ @theliverdoc]

Alternative medicine practitioners allege that I have a propaganda against them through my X handle. They claim that my clinical practice and "business of healthcare" suffer because alternative medicine is now favored more and I'm losing patients.

On the contrary, my handle and account on X exist solely for helping public and patients and cutting it off even for a while, is a disservice.

Like this father son duo, who found me through a follower of mine from Kolkata on X and through another common follower in Delhi, got my details to meet me at Kochi.

The father suffered from liver failure due to consumption of traditional Ayurvedic herbs and was given three months to live without a transplant as his liver failure progressed rapidly.

Since the son was ready for donating a part of his liver to save his father, I advised them to come to Kochi. They did not have any money. But that was not the main concern for us. Either I would write off his death certificate or he would go home fully cured.

They came.

Two days back, we discharged him home after spending a month with us and undergoing a liver transplant for free. We took this picture together before they left for their hometown, and the son, gave me his permission to share this story.

I use my account for this.
I say what I have to say, for this.

People, especially modern medicine doctors, who in my absence, proclaimed my rudeness or arrogance and called my statements egoistic or abusive are small minds who cannot fathom what I focus on. It's easy for strangers to judge others (erroneously) on social media and disrupt everything done in good faith.

You have no idea what the bigger picture of clinical medicine is and would probably not understand it, in this life.

I am happy to be back doing what other doctors would/could never do, as long as I can, to help the people and patients. My methods maybe unapologetically sharp, factual and truthful and I intent to keep it that way.

[Sukhada @appadappajappa]

The MMT ad is not just distasteful, it is hateful. It is made by people who don't know the difference between rivalry and enmity. Absolutely shocking low level in Indian advertising.

@vanditamorarka @outofofficedaku can you help?

*Hotel California plays*

43% of employees who quit their jobs since 2020 regretted it, and 20% boomeranged back.

What left the door open for potential rehires?

First off, this man's Q reeks of patriarchy. But I'll still address it with my personal exp - I was at my happiest when I was a mother AND I was employed. I spent 4 yrs as SAHM & it was one of the most miserable periods of my life. I'm currently between jobs & I HATE it. There.
