Before @fcompanionsouth I didn't do many interviews. I was (and am) scared. But Manikandan was honest, kind and giving. Was an absolute pleasure talking to him and listening to others talk about him. This story just wrote itself. Please read. And send feedback, ok?
From the enthusiastic eight-year-old who mimicked his grandparents to the multi-faceted actor/writer/independent filmmaker he is today, #Manikandan has come a long way. @_tharkuri writes about this journey and more. filmcompanion.in/features/ta…

If true this would be a huge win for feminism. Women are grossly underrepresented in the dictatorship and authoritarianism fields
Kim Jong Un is set to formally name his daughter, Kim Ju Ae, as the next leader of North Korea 😳

Correction. Blinkit didn't create 1,85,000 jobs. It created 1,85,000 people who own their own vehicles, pay for their own fuel, have no fixed salary, no PF, no ESI, no sick leave, no job security and are one algorithm update away from losing their entire income. These men work 12-14 hours a day across three apps simultaneously just to clear twenty thousand a month. No company bears the cost of their health, their accident, their family. They are not employees but infrastructure. Invisible, replaceable and deliberately kept contractor coded so the balance sheet stays clean. The 'jobs created' number is a marketing figure. It counts every delivery partner who ever downloaded the app. It does not count how many quit. How many were injured with zero compensation. How many are still waiting for their incentive payout. And yes this entire ecosystem exists because people are too comfortable to walk to a market. That comfort is being subsidized by men who cannot afford the same comfort themselves. And I don't give a shit about kunal kamra or raghav chaddha. First learn the difference between a job and a gig before you make a PowerPoint about it.
Number of Jobs created by Blinkit : 1,85,000 Number of Jobs created by Zepto : 1,20,000 Number of Jobs created by Big Basket :80000 Number of Jobs created by Zomato : 5,50,000 Number of Jobs created by Swiggy : 6,90,000 Number of Jobs created by Urban Company : 40000 Number of Jobs created by OLA : 1 million Number of Jobs created by Uber : 1.4 Million Number of Jobs created by Rapido : 8,00,000 The left social media warrior achievements are here take a look No of jobs created by Kunal Kamra : 0 No of Jobs created by Raghav Chadda : 0 No of Jobs created by Ravish Kumar : 0 People who have created 0 jobs are questioning people who have created million of Jobs in India.

An investigative reporting which should've been done by a mainstream media house was done by a 17 year old boy. Our godi media is busy protecting the people in power.
CBSE has systematically rewritten its rulebook to favor Coempt Eduteck. check out the blog.

Somehow this video scares me. Like a clueless person will give single window approval for things they haven’t even entirely considered because they don’t want to appear as ‘slow.’ And they won’t grasp what they did wrong when shit hits the fan.
Tamil Nadu is not waiting for the future, we are building it. From single-window approvals and faster clearances to AI cities, green hydrogen, advanced manufacturing, and the space economy, Tamil Nadu is creating an ecosystem where innovation meets execution. Under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay Sir, we are committed to making Tamil Nadu the investment and innovation powerhouse of India. The future is here. Invest in Tamil Nadu. #TamilNadu #Industries #CMJosephVijay

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it. Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying. Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence." Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter." Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter. They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created. One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility." Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies. That's the metered intelligence business model. And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.
SAM ALTMAN: “WE SEE A FUTURE WHERE INTELLIGENCE IS A UTILITY, LIKE ELECTRICITY OR WATER, AND PEOPLE BUY IT FROM US ON A METER.”

Agatha Christie knew poisons so well, her books have been consulted when diagnosing patients. In 1976, a London infant was dying of a rare illness. Her nurses, having read The Pale Horse, realized she had been poisoned with thallium. Murder mysteries saved her life.
What historical fact sounds fake but is true?

This is an attempt to be the reckless live tweeter I once was. Blurting out whatever thoughts crossed my mind. A kind reader called it stream of consciousness. So here goes nothing. It's a Sunday. A bit early for most people. But I've had my breakfast and coffee. So here goes.

But he should be allowed to make to put his depravity in full display because cinema is not that impactful, we have to watch movies as movies, cinema cannot carry the burden of collective awareness, etc

One of my best friends @SuparnaSharma just won a Pulitzer!!! I am ecstatic for her. Just beyond!! Those of us who have known her forever, know what mettle she is made of. So proud of you!!! ❤️ @PulitzerPrizes
No visitors. No texting. No escape. For eight days, Ruchika Tandon was “arrested by phone.” This is the inside story of India’s new digital nightmare. Read the 2026 Pulitzer Prize winning graphic novel by @an_anandrk @natalieobiko @SuparnaSharma bloomberg.com/graphics/2025-…

Please don’t use this! do not use the free bot to search over 85 M papers. Please ignore that you funded the research with your taxes, the authors paid $3,000 to publish it, and the peer reviewers worked for free. Please subscribe at $40 per article so Elsevier can keep its margins. Please do not bookmark sci-bot dot ru
Sci-Hub is an evil website that pirated 85M research papers and made them freely available And now they've added AI to their database to make Sci-Bot. It answers your questions using latest, full-text articles. But DO NOT use it. We should all try to make billion-dollar academic publishers richer. I'm putting the link below so you know how to avoid it.
