What If Your Strongest Opinions Aren’t Even Entirely Yours?

Are we forming our own opinions or inheriting them from our feeds?

7 Hours of Horror. 5 Essays on “Safety.” What Changed?

When sexual violence is met with essays instead of consequences, are institutions really delivering accountability or just performing it?

UPI was never really free. We just weren't the ones paying for it.

For years, UPI felt free to consumers, but banks and infrastructure still had costs. Now MDR applies to specified merchant payments above ₹2,000.

“Free” was never costless, just invisible.

We blame the government for dirty streets, but throw garbage on them.
We blame police for traffic, but break every rule we can.
We blame corruption, then pay to skip the queue.

We want a better country without better citizens.

That's hypocrisy.

Normal people-
Sorry, this isn’t working out let’s take a break.

Shastrarth participants -
Here is a memorandum of understanding on 30 reasons why our union is not feasible:

1. You don’t know what shastrath is
2. You cheated.
