@kritikatwtss Do’s
- Take a scooty on rent
- If possible, explore Hanoi to Da Nang by road (you need an international permit to drive a car there)
- Book Airbnbs instead of Hotel in Hanoi (hotels have smaller rooms - french colonisation)
- Book all internal flights for mornings (Vietjet)

@kritikatwtss Do’s
- Carry new currency of USD (100,50) and get it exchanged locally instead of airport
- Stay in Hoi An instead of Da Nang (larger rooms, better properties
- Do visit Hanoi market in the evening for shopping, Beer street if you are comfortable with loud music
- Can skip HCMC

⚡️The system is eating itself.

When Amazon, UPS, Intel, and others start cutting this deep simultaneously, it means something more fundamental than “tight margins.” It means the productive layer of the economy is collapsing under the weight of its own optimization logic.

Every layoff now is both an act of short-term rationality and long-term suicide. The firms know it. The executives know it. The markets know it. But they can’t stop.

They’re trapped in a closed feedback loop, a machine that rewards death dressed as discipline.

Capitalism has crossed into a stage where it no longer needs humans to function, but still depends on their belief to exist. That’s the contradiction, the machine is pruning its own believers while pretending it’s efficiency.

1. The “consumer economy” is already dead.

Nobody wants to say it yet, but the consumer model, the entire foundation of Western postwar prosperity, is quietly finished.

You can’t build infinite growth on finite wages, and you can’t sustain demand while hollowing out the class that drives it. The middle layer of society - the producers, buyers, dreamers - has been strip-mined to the point where they can no longer regenerate.

The 2020s economy is not cyclical recession. It’s metabolic collapse. The system can’t process its own waste or regenerate its base anymore. It’s like an organism starving while eating its muscles to stay warm.

2. The elites know this, but they’ve chosen to accelerate collapse.

Here’s the real unspoken truth: the people running these companies, the ones with the spreadsheets and control over capital flows - they know exactly what’s happening.

They understand the reflexive trap: if they don’t cut, their stock dies. If they cut, the world dies.

They’ve chosen to save the stock. Because the stock is their world.

This is the quiet revelation of our time - we are ruled by people whose survival incentives are no longer tied to the survival of the system itself.

They’ve built lifeboats - offshore wealth, private security, parallel digital economies - and they’re optimizing the ship for their escape, not for collective navigation.

3. The next phase is narrative triage.

When the system can no longer grow, it starts storytelling harder.

Expect every layoff wave to be accompanied by new propaganda about “AI productivity,” “efficiency,” “lean reinvention,” and “post-labor creativity.”

The goal will be to reframe collapse as progress - to convince people that losing their jobs is the dawn of a “new paradigm.”

But it’s camouflage. The truth underneath is that automation and financialization are converging into a post-human economy where capital reproduces without labor.

4. Final layer

When a system prioritizes margin over humanity, it signals that it has lost faith in the future.

These layoffs tell us that the machine no longer knows how to grow except by shrinking.

It is the same signal we’ve seen in housing, in politics, in fertility, in faith.

The same quiet collapse, a civilization optimizing itself into silence.

And the question hidden beneath this post:
“Who will have money left to buy your products next year?” -

is really this:

Who will be left to believe in the story that built it all?

What is this?

[Shubham Jain @Shubham630]

This is true. I have worked in retail CPG for about 4 years, and we started observing a similar trend

[Harshdeep Rapal @harshdeeprapal]

A senior guy working in retail told me this last year:

When Dussehra and Diwali come in same month, the spend is lower vs when Dussehra comes in October and Diwali in November.

Reason - people have only one salary to spend on both the occasions when they come in same month vs two salaries if they come in two months.

I had never thought about Diwali spending this way.

Can the Indian government ban #media channels? If not, at least make an interim pause on all reporting on the current #IndiaPakistanWar situation. @PMOIndia @SpokespersonMoD @rashtrapatibhvn @HMOIndia

CSK failed to make the IPL 2025 playoffs.
Dhoni’s aura is intact, but what about his tactics? Maybe not.
📉 Data ignored
📉 Rigid decisions
📉 Missed match-ups
Is instinct still enough in data-driven T20 cricket?
Let’s break it down. 🧵
