Yesterday, I was interrogated by the Sri Lanka Police Counter Terrorism Investigation Division (CTID) 6 hours and 45 minutes. The questioning covered my journalism and photography work, Social media’s activities,financial activities, phone records, and overseas visits. I am deeply grateful for the unwavering solidarity, support, and love I have received. Your encouragement strengthens my resolve to continue fact-based reporting and to carry forward my work in the days ahead. #Pressfreedom #Freedomofspeech

Exactly 60 yrs ago, cosmonaut #YuriGagarin became the 1st human to travel to #space. His historic flight of 108 mins on Vostok 1 on 12 April 1961 opened the era of human #spaceflight that continues. "Earth looked a delicate blue floating in a black sky" he reported... #Gagarin60

I am thrilled to share that on May 19 I successfully defended my PhD dissertation, which explains the continuation and proliferation of Tamil nationalist practices, despite the absence of the LTTE and in the presence of a repressive Sri Lankan state.

Woah! Stunning turn of events with USA Cricket. Johnathan Atkeison is set to be announced tomorrow as the new USA Men's head coach! (If you want to understand the importance of correct punctuation, I highly recommend picking up a copy of "Eats, Shoots & Leaves" by Lynne Truss.)

Richard Gere, "We have a bully and a thug who is President of the United States" "But it's not just in the US, it's everywhere" "I read a really moving letter in the NY Times from a gentleman in Hungary. The slippery slope of how this happens everywhere" "Authoritarianism takes us all over" "We have to be vigilant. We have to be alert. We have to be energetic. We have to be brave. We have to be courageous" "And everyone who is watching this.. We have to be willing to stand up, tell the truth, be honest" "There's a place in all of our lives for basic kindness, for basic love, and understanding"

@PeterDellaPenna Just read your article! 😂 YES they do!!! Congratulations to them (maybe that should’ve been in the headline? Also, why is it called the Super 6 when 12 teams go through to that round?!? 😂 it doesn’t make sense. It’s actually the Super 12!

ICYMI - Opener Davina Perrin ruthlessly attacked USA's bowling unit to score 74 out of England's total of 120 in a breezy chase as England U19 Women downed the Americans by eight wickets to top Group B at the 2025 ICC Women's U19 T20 WC. Full report here. dreamcricket.com/articles/usa-c…

A demonstration was held today in front of the Mullaitivu District Secretariat, urging that the #Rohingya #refugees who sought asylum in the Mullaitivu seas not be deported to their home country and calling on Sri Lanka to uphold international human rights laws. This protest was organized by the North-East Coordinating Committee.

@PeterDellaPenna Actually, the pronunciation by both the British & the Americans is incorrect. The pronunciation of the Greek Goddess Nikē’s name is . I know how you hate being corrected (remember the comma incident?!?) so I imagine you’ll block me here too… sigh. 😂 youtu.be/68E8XbUh3wU?si…

Phil Knight, all of Oregon and all of Greece continue to cringe at the continued habitual British butchering of a Greek goddess and billion dollar brand name. Memo to the British public: Nike is two syllables, not one.
