Planning a movie marathon for today let’s go ( will update this thread with current watch and review )
I have a very big backlog of movies and lots of free time today

The modern mind cannot comprehend this.

The incredulity in the quoted thread is misplaced. The map is fairly accurate, with due consideration for the roughness of our estimates. Several people are insisting there must have been more large cities in other parts of the world. There weren't.

That ribbon of territory between Japan and Western Europe was where the vast majority of the human race lived at the time. The current distribution of the world's population is not how it has always been.

Also note that these are cities with at least 100,000. That is not large by modern standards. Modern-day Conroe has 120,000. Port St. Lucie is approaching 300,000. A few outliers in 1700 were larger, of course. London at the time was maybe 600,000 (a little bigger than modern Canberra). Even the largest city in the world was still probably smaller than today's Buffalo or Leeds or Winnipeg.

The world of 1700 was still a very rural and wild place.

I was just in Mumbai, and I have to give them credit for the progress they’re making on infrastructure. The new Aqua Line metro is phenomenal. But the amount of work India still has to do on basic cleanliness and sanitation and it is hard to understand until you see it yourself. Would love for more westerners to go just to understand how wealthy they are, but that's a different point.

Mumbai is completely surrounded by water, yet there are almost no places where people can actually enjoy the water. The beaches are filled with trash, the water is badly contaminated, and almost nobody swims, even when it’s brutally hot outside. Walking on the beach is just mud and trash meeting filthy water on the horizon.

There are much poorer places around the world where people can still use the beaches. This is not just about money. India has gone decades without adequate trash collection, sewage treatment, or enforcement for a population of more than a billion people. At this point, the scale of the problem feels almost impossible, and the oceans around the world are paying the price for Indias garbage output as well.

I like the direction Modi is taking the country, but India needs to treat cleanup like a national emergency. Stop with the small campaigns and organize a full scale blitz.

Offer unemployed people paid work picking up trash, clearing drains and waterways, cleaning beaches, and maintaining public spaces. Give them proper equipment and supervision. Then build the collection and waste processing systems needed to stop everything from becoming filthy again a week later.

India has shown that it can build metros, airports, highways, and digital infrastructure. Clean streets and usable water should be treated as infrastructure too.

Mumbai should have one of the greatest waterfronts in the world. Instead, it's has basically an irrelevant feature of the city and feels surrendered to sewage and garbage.

this country protects the identity of rapists when they rape, torture and kill 15yo girls in the most gruesome way but when you as a 15 year old abuse the prime minister they will join hands with modern day nazis to unleash a witch hunt on you and doxx you on national television

When BJP is out of power, there needs to be a raid in the homes of these accounts for possession of actual cp material

There is no way someone can think like this otherwise.

[Chinmayi Sripaada @Chinmayi]

If this is true - what an absolute gobsmacking shame.

But shame is only for those who have any.

Things will NEVER go back to normal.

Inefficiency was the Normal.

Corruption was the Normal.

Arrogance was the Normal.

Nepotism was the Normal.

To hide their failures, they hide under garb of hinduism. They say, “forget jobs, water shortage, price rise…hindu khatre me hai!”

@abhiandniyu what do you mean by normal? I am so ashamed of you

[Samriddhi K Sakunia @Samriddhi0809]

Such cowards. Back to normal? When did they interrupt with any public activity? When did they call for road blockades? When did they ask for desh bandi? When did they call for everyday march to disrupt the traffic of any city?

Itne followers leke bhi bakwaas hi karna hai to koi bhi party join karlo, “influenza” kyu ban na hai? @Cockroachisback @SauravDassss @whattalawyer
