@sidin That's one possible opening paragraph for a crime novel.

@sandeep_PT Gotta love the assertion that eggs are more expensive.

[Narasinga 🇮🇳 @syrinje]

@gauravsabnis Very nice. I must try making this. Good reminder that unlike the kashmlmiri curry, yakhni pulao doesn't need yogurt. Although it sounds tempting to use hung curd in the marinade.

@SirKazamJeevi Ok, I'll bite.

Eat all mangoes. Eat every mango you can. The small, juicy, fibrous, nameless ones you pluck off that old tree down the gully. The planted-a-Dussheri-seed-but-never-grafted Dussheri-ish mango from your masi’s garden in Bhopal.
Blushing Sindhuras. Sweet Kesars. Yes eat as many of those beautiful Alphonsos from Devgad packed carefully in cardboard boxes as you can. But also eat Pairi, Neelam, Ratna. And Sindu - a cross between the Ratna & the Alphonso which is slowly gaining more ground because climate change has wreaked havoc on the finicky Alphonso - ask farmers, yields have been down for a few years now, talk to farmers.

Eat with the season.
Eat the early mangoes from the south - Mankurad, Badami, Banganapalli, Imam Pasad in late April-May.
Eat your middle-India mangoes - Kesar, Bombay Green, and also Malgova and Mallika which are late season bloomers from the south, and your Himsagar, Gulabkhaas, beauties from Malda and Murshidabad - try to lay your hands on a Champa, Saranga, or Kohitoor in May-June!
And go both hands in, into piles of Amrapali, Chausa, Malihabadi Dussheris, Langdas in July.

This is just the tip of the mango iceberg, there are so many more loved & delicious varieties - India has near 1,500 varieties of mangoes.
Why would you eat just one? Of course have your favourites but also look at our beautiful biodiversity - please cherish it! Eat widely. Eat greedily. Eat because these mangoes are so delicious. Eat in RESISTANCE TO LOSS, eat like these mangoes might disappear because some of them already are!

@swarraj Same here. No solution.

The ultimate outcome of the last twenty years of explainer journalism, long form journalism, data journalism and all of that is “grok is it true”.

Heartbreaking.

[Narasinga 🇮🇳 @syrinje]

@gautambhatia88 Too risky to do legal journalism when critical analysis is contempt is lese majeste.

[Narasinga 🇮🇳 @syrinje]

@Aakar__Patel Speak no ill they say - so we overlook today the extreme far-rightness he was drawn to in his later years.
That said - St. Peter and his boss finally face Chuckgement day.

Quite a surprising stand for a major westerm media outlet to take. Astonishing even.

[Dr. Brahma Chellaney @Chellaney]

Since its founding in 1843, The Economist newsmagazine has often aligned itself with major Western military interventions — from the Crimean War (1853–56) and the Second Opium War (1856–60) to more recent U.S.-led wars. It was a staunch supporter of the wars in Vietnam and Iraq, including parroting the false claim that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction.

Against this backdrop, its more skeptical coverage of the current U.S.-Israeli war on Iran marks a notable departure from its traditionally pro-war journalism.

This may leave The Wall Street Journal as one of the last major Western publications still strongly backing the U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran.

[Narasinga 🇮🇳 @syrinje]

@Chellaney But will that induce any change?
Bleak inevitability looms large.
Khayyam echoes in the back of the mind.
The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it

Announcement in the plane

"Is there a doctor on board? A patient needs medical help."

A middle aged man rushes forth to help.

"Are you a doctor?"

"Even better. I have my own tech startup!"
