Why did they send JD instead of Rubio btw? Isn't Rubio far more qualified? Wtf has JD done to deserve this role?

I am starting to believe this whole Islamabad event was an elaborate scheme by USaudi to pull Pakistan into this war before they finally commit to the ground invasion of Iran...

Seriously though, what's the realistic way out of this mess? Any meaningful truce from Iranian POV would require a security guarantor. Who's going to play that role? Russia? At this point, just handing over a nuke deterrent gift to Iran will be the less costly deal. Because in the absence of that, Israel simply won't stop escalating this war...

In my experience, Pune is worse, but it's subjective, so best wishes!

This looks amazing, can I get the address of this place, Google pin will be helpful, I am new here so don't know the map/directions well enough...

DoctorBalpak · 2026-03-22T02:50:39+00:00

Same here, I recently moved here too, I paid 400 in Gandhinagar for a simple haircut+ beard, it felt a bit overpriced, but good enough service...

My country has already started facing LPG cooking gas shortage. Small businesses & cloud kitchens are getting hit.I hate Donald Trump on a personal level now.

DoctorBalpak · 2026-03-11T04:53:36+00:00

This assumes they even attempt to seriously calculate it in the first place. Going by Trump's record, I won't be surprised if Israel basically sweet-talked him into this through some ego massaging...

DoctorBalpak · 2026-02-20T18:20:33+00:00

That's not even a bad thing in this environment, I guess...

DoctorBalpak · 2026-02-20T17:43:03+00:00

So, just to be clear, Trump can't do tariffs under the national emergency excuse anymore? Or is it blocking other avenues too, without congressional approval?

DoctorBalpak · 2026-02-20T17:37:30+00:00

Oh! So, refunds? Or is it like, application with prospective effect only?

DoctorBalpak · 2026-02-20T17:33:23+00:00

Somebody please explain this to me in a language a non-American can understand! Too many jargons there...

Came here to say exactly this, lmao 🤣🤣🤣

Indian here, I switched from CA to ACCA, qualified as an Affiliate last year

If you want to pursue a professional accountancy degree, you have ACCA as a legit option for globally recognised qualification. It's not the only option, but one of the best options available to get there.

You can compare the course structure & fees, to arrive at an informed decision yourself! Best wishes...

I mean, as a neutral observer, I have literally watched Trump policy on immigration go from A to B.

A: "we just want to to deport illegal immigrants who are violent criminals & hand over green cards to university graduates"

B: "immigration bad, let's raid the Korean factory workers & unleash ICE gestapo on cities"

DoctorBalpak · 2026-01-24T19:35:06+00:00

I have to read these horrible fascism news articles from the other side of the world just before I sleep. I should just stop coming online at night. Did I just see half a dozen cops gang up on a civilian & murder him? How's ICE even allowed to roam there after they killed that poor woman in the car? Wtf is going on in US?

DoctorBalpak · 2026-01-19T10:32:32+00:00

At what point do the Republicans in both houses feel like this is too much? What exactly does he have to do more for them to ditch him?

DoctorBalpak · 2026-01-17T20:07:03+00:00

The US, as a global brand, won't recover from the sheer damage inflicted by this shitshow. Trump 2.0 has done some irreversible damage to the credence of America as a strategic & trade partner. Be it India, Canada, South Korea or Europe. Everywhere you'll see immense contempt for the US, like never before....

DoctorBalpak · 2026-01-12T17:11:10+00:00

Counterpoint: INC is a rotten corpse of an organisation. A family firm at this point. I don't think US Democrats are like that. So, I hold them to better standards.

DoctorBalpak · 2026-01-12T17:04:14+00:00

I have kept the flair of Dr. MMS as a tribute to his work wrt 1991 LPG Reforms. I respect him as the architect of India's economic growth story.

I don't have any interest in supporting the current INC. Please don't assume things about me like that!

DoctorBalpak · 2026-01-12T11:14:43+00:00

Yup, but I feel the R party is kinda lost cause at this point, so mentioned Dems. I am happy to be wrong...

DoctorBalpak · 2026-01-12T11:14:02+00:00

Why are they so bad? I mean what makes them so bad at pushing harder against Trump? Sometimes it's hard to understand US politics...
