B-R-E-A-K-I-N-G:
The US built the most advanced ghost sub ever. Cutting-edge underwater AI, classified tech, the whole brochure. Smart.
Then they sent it to a strait controlled by people who can hear a shrimp sneeze in that channel. Not smart.
It came in cocky, like a tourist who doesn't read signs. Our guys picked it up like a plastic bottle in a fishing net. Fully intact. Still blinking like an idiot.
Condolences to whoever was holding the joystick. His screen went dark. So did his career.
The PM uses Homeopathy as the core analogy of his speech. What he talks about homeopathy here is what the practitioners called "homeopathic aggravation"
- A temporary worsening of symptoms after taking homeopathic pill, which practitioners believe precedes healing. Homeopaths view this flare-up as a positive sign that the correct remedy was chosen - which medical science community has proven doesn't exist, and that homeopathy does not work beyond a placebo effect.
In either case, the flare up can lead to worsening disease or it can be part of the natural history of the disease where a flare is naturally followed by a period of remission.
Using this example of how Homeopathy works, to promote political ideologies and trample critical and logical dissent is the exact feature of a person with low intellectual capacity, illogical reasoning, irrational beliefs, narcissistic insecurity and fragile self worth. A real education helps avert these low humanistic traits.
I’m sorry to say this, but India is increasingly being built on a steady diet of lies and hubris. No nation can build lasting progress on exaggeration, denial, and arrogance. Reality eventually catches up. This is unsustainable.
I am glad that BJP handles are advocating violence against citizens. The civil war will start quicker that way. As I've forecasted last few years, it'll be between Manusmriti & Dr Ambedkar's Constitution. Or another way of putting it is between Modi's subjects & India's citizens.

There is no Malayali who hasn’t heard these opening lines of Kerala’s most beloved Onam song (ഓണപ്പാട്ട്).
Written by Sahodaran Ayyappan in 1934, the full song is an absolute must-read.
Thread with the song’s full lyrics with English translation 🧵
After seeing Modi's pathetic governance & institutionalised corruption, my respect for my grandparents generation increased!
They were in their 20/30s at the time of partition & had seen these fanatic idiots in action.
They kept them at a distance like Covid social distancing.
"I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu)..."
On August 25, 1991, a 21-year-old student sent a message to a Usenet newsgroup. He thought he was just building something fun for himself.
35 years later, that "hobby" is the backbone of global technology:
🚀 Powering helicopters in space with NASA
☁️ Running the global cloud and 100% of the world’s supercomputers
📱 Connecting billions of people
🎮 Redefining the future of handheld gaming
What started as one student's side project became the greatest collaborative technology movement in history. Thank you to every maintainer, contributor, and advocate who made it possible.
Happy 35th Birthday, Linux. Here’s to the power of open source and the next 35 years of building together.

Gen-Z on the March in Bengaluru. as part of the Gen-Z Rising tour!
It's an honour to join @tmkrishna and Kannada actor Kishore along with the people of Karnataka.
The struggle for equitable education continues!
This level of political maturity, this clarity of thought, this quiet astute eloquence from someone so young still feels almost unreal.
Her simplicity is disarming. Her humility is genuine. And yet beneath that calm presence and simple charm lies an unshakeable resolve, a courage and sense of purpose that leaves you stunned. She doesn’t just speak—she inspires. Scores of young people walk away carrying her words with them as she triggered in them a flood of thought provoking emotions and questions.
What made yesterday at Open Space, Lamakaan, Hyderabad even more powerful was watching her stand shoulder to shoulder with comrade Balaji. Together they delivered an electrifying address—her sharp clarity meeting his steadfast solidarity—creating a moment of rare political chemistry. Their collaboration didn’t just amplify the message; it embodied the very spirit of collective struggle they spoke of.
With youth like @neha_aisa and @ni5arga comrade Balaji standing firm beside each other, one thing became unmistakably clear: the future is in safer hands than we dared hope.

Someone asked me - define Hindutva ❓
I showed him this pic & said - This Human without Humanity is Hindutva. The ability to celebrate the hunger & bombing of children 1000 miles away they never knew, never met, never harmed - that is Hindutva. THREAT TO HUMANITY.
Am I right❓
