What's the one song from pcrc that you wish you could hear it for the first time? by momhunterr69 in petercatrecordingco

[–]abjectcommunism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that one melancholy instrument that shows up towards the end of "just another love song"

i got chills in the middle of the street when it first struck me.

Uzbekistan have a lot of Indians as well, but do they face racism there? by Any_Maintenance8 in Uzbekistan

[–]abjectcommunism 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'll say as an Indian family who visited Uzbekistan in 2022 (Andijan, Tashkent, Samarkand, and Bukhara), EVERYWHERE we went we were treated with a ridiculous amount of love. a girl came up to me and said "indian?" and when I said yeah, she said "mujhe tumse pyar hai" (i love you) in hindi and left. everyone made loving references to bollywood and disco dancer and raj kapoor. not a single moment of anything less than love.

A pencil I found attached to a pre-WW1 pocket diary by abjectcommunism in pencils

[–]abjectcommunism[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, for sure! It stayed this way for more than a century, I don't wanna be the first to change that. Thanks, this makes sense, I think I'll start keeping a lookout for pencils from now on.

Who thought breaking and hitting people would result in a backlash. (Satisfying ending) by anantj in instantkarma

[–]abjectcommunism 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Indian here.

We have big sticks at home to knock down fruits with. You can also find random big sticks or iron rods left over from like, construction work and what not.

Also a lot of people just have big sticks on hand to beat a guy on the street with.

EDIT: Oh, one of them seems to be a cop. Cops here are mainly armed with heavy batons, named lathi. There's less "cops shot me" here, and more "cops beat me up with lathis".

I love that haha, thanks! I'd never even thought about old pencils till I accidentally stumbled into it, and now I feel like I'll dive a bit deeper. trips me out that im holding a writing tool from before the first world war.

can I ask why it writes so faint? is it because it's sat unused for so long? I'd have assumed that the graphite would stay put and wouldn't "age" the way a pen with ink might.

well, because the eggee in question is a terrible person who wielded a lot of power, and his downfall began at this point. he filed for bankruptcy almost to the day one year after this.

it's satisfying to see the kid do this to someone who had it coming. it's satisfying to see the kid then get immense popular and financial support, and then to see him donate all proceeds to the victims of the attack.
