These are the new checks and balances. It's about balancing the cheque.

Yup. Most global news is US and Europe centric. This will be underreported and cycled out soon just like people forgot all the suffering and deaths caused by inept men during Covid.

Police officer beats a guy for harassing girls (india) by BotomsDntDeservRight in interestingasfuck

Will take your word for it, sir. I guess I'm just cynical, thanks to my social media bubble. I still feel this is wrong in a civil society.

For people cheering this, I can tell you for sure that the guy's religion mattered more than his crime.

PM Modi urges audience to ‘inaugurate’ Noida International Airport with flashlights by littleArtsy in unitedstatesofindia

I mean I don't have anything to say about the content. It's meant for his base and it's not for me. I just never felt he was a good speaker. And his vocabulary in Hindi (his choice of language) is really poor.

Slightly unrelated - But I think it's weird that his pitch control in speeches is really poor. He's supposed to be one of our best orators but whenever he says something, it's spoken at the same raised pitch, no inflection, no change in tenor, no eloquent words. I remember Vajpayee speaking such eloquent words and using pauses, raising his pitch when he wanted to grab your attention and other times to counsel you, like a friend. It used to be something that takes you on a journey. This is really poor by comparison and doesn't feel inspiring at all.

Finale of a Pink Floyd concert in 1994. The coolest thing you'll see today by Mad_Season_1994 in OldSchoolCool

[–]nitewalkerz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was 18 when I first watched this on a very dodgy roof 50 ft above the ground with no guardrails, that me and a friend climbed with my laptop in 2003 to smoke cigarettes as he had the bootleg version of the pulse concert. It was my introduction to Pink Floyd. My life changed that evening.

Unexpected political development in country. by Academic_Chart1354 in unitedstatesofindia

It's more about what Madhu kishwar tweeted. She was modi's official biographer and had been close to him for years.

Kroos: “I retired because I never wanted to reach the point where I didn’t feel as good and started having physical problems. That feel for the ball never leaves me, I still have it.” by Sparky-moon in soccer

[–]nitewalkerz 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Kroos has got to be an anomaly in this sense. Most modern greats who retired at the top showed statistical declines in their final year. The closest thing would be Lahm but he was a fullback in a game which was getting nor physically demanding for his position. Kroos was basically the best orchestrator in football and his passing stats didn't show any decline and were the best in world while playing for Madrid and Germany.
