@Simon_Ingari It's begun. X is morphing into Linkedin.

@fandompulse He is 100% on point. Rings of Power is hot garbage. Scratch that... that's insulting hot garbage.

Chuck Dixon on why The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is so bad: "What Amazon is doing to Tolkien is an abomination. The people doing the work obviously don’t understand the original work. They are adding elements that are very 2022 to it that five years from now are going to appear laughable. They’re taking a timeless tale and setting it basically in our contemporary zeitgeist. And it’s just wrong." How right is he?

@bykarthikreddy Lol!! Our tax rupees are being put to best use. Makes me want to pay more taxes so our hardworking ministers are well taken care of. Book them all world tours at our dime...why not?

In a landmark reform that will truly redefine governance priorities, each legislator will now receive 3 IPL tickets and 2 international match passes.

@doser_i85668 Matt is tremendous but isn't in the same league as Dave Chappel. Always felt he is a less offensive variant of Jimmy Carr. Fan of all three btw.

This Dude is the next Dave Chapelle. It take a special person to come near the line, stomp on the line, cross the line, and still not offend nor be offensive 🤣😂🤣

Remembering character artist/director of Hindi/Bengali film/theater, beloved "Dhurandhar Bhatwdekar" #UtpalDutt With #AmolPalekar in Hrishikesh Mukherjee's laughter riot, Gol Maal (1979) Your fav movies of Utpal Dutt?

@gharkekalesh As a Bangalorean, & frequent observer of bikes on footpaths, trust me, this is the only way Uncle will learn. 80% chance he will forget all about it in the next 30 secs & hop aboard a footpath at the next opportunity.

In Bengaluru near MG Road, a guy aggressively shouts at an elderly scooter rider on the footpath even after he agrees to get down. Footpaths are for pedestrians, not vehicles. Roads aren't for walkers either. Civic sense matters!

@joybhattacharj Golmaal was my dad's favourite movie & he regarded Utpal Dutt-ji very highly. Every time it showed on TV, we would be watching & laughing like it was the first time. Utpal Dutt-ji was the epitome of deadpan comedy & truly inimitable.

He could speak 8 languages and they said he could recite all 37 of Shakespeare's plays from memory. An award winning playwright & stage artist and one of Satyajit Ray's favourite actors. Also one of India's finest comic actors in films like Golmaal, and Hirak Rajar Deshe. The irony is that the marvellous comic roles in Golmaal and other films, what most people outside remember him for, is what he regarded as the least important "I have developed a technique of shutting my mind off, switching it off, rather. I will not be able to tell you even the names of the films I have acted in or even the name of the character I have just finished shooting.” He was also a brilliant writer & regular theatre reviewer. “Mr.Dutt as Othello was rather a pitiable sight, with his voice gone, his breathing laboured and his bulk enormous.” This was Utpal Dutt reviewing his own stage performance using the pseudonym Iago. He also loved classical art and there is this wonderful story told by his daughter. "When we went to Italy, it meant we would have to spend at least one day on viewing each sculpture. We had hired the services of a guide. But, we found that Baba knew more about the place than the guide. The next day, the guide asked us if we would be ready to go on our own." A true renaissance man and a principled one, not scared to go to prison for his views. Utpal Dutt was truly one of our greats. 97th birth anniversary today.

@RigorMoritz @RBRHub Thanks Sir. I stand corrected :) Alonso is a mini jester too ;)

Max Verstappen: "I'm not enjoying Formula 1 as a whole. That's what I'm saying. I'm thinking about everything within this paddock." "Privately I'm very happy. You also wait for 24 races. This time it's 22. But normally 24. And then you just think about is it worth it? Or do I enjoy being more at home with my family? Seeing my friends more when you're not enjoying your sport?" 'I want to be here to have fun' "I can easily accept to be in P7 or P8 where I am. Because I also know that you can't be dominating or be first or second or whatever, fighting for a podium every time. I'm very realistic in that and I've been there before. I've not only been winning in F1. "But at the same time when you are in P7 or P8 and you are not enjoying the whole formula behind it, it doesn't feel natural to a racing driver. "Of course I try to adapt to it, but it's not nice the way you have to race. It's really anti-driving. Then at one point, yeah, it's just not what I want to do. "And of course you can look at it and make a lot of money. Great. But at the end of the day it's not about money any more because this has always been my passion." "As a kid this is what I wanted to do and back then I had no idea what I was going to achieve and how much money you make. You never think about that as a kid. And it's also not about that." "I want to be here to have fun and have a great time and enjoy myself. At the moment that's not really the case. "Of course I do enjoy certain aspects. I enjoy working with my team. It's like a second family. But once I sit in the car it's not the most enjoyable unfortunately. "I'm trying. I keep telling myself every day to try and enjoy it. It's just very hard." "I see it like this: You hear it from a lot of sports people when you speak to them about how are you successful. It all starts with actually enjoying what you're doing before you can actually commit to it 100%. "Now I think I'm committing 100% and I'm still trying, but the way that I am telling myself to give it 100% I think is not very healthy at the moment because I am not enjoying what I'm doing. "And now people can easily say, 'Yeah, well, you've won so many championships and races and now just because the car is not good you are complaining.' Maybe you can see it like that, but I see it different." He added that one option would be to go and race in sports cars — he is already planning to take part in the Nurburgring 24 Hours this year. "I have a lot of other projects anyway that I have a lot of passion about. The GT3 racing. Not only racing it myself but also the team. It's really nice and fun to build that. And I really want to build that out further in the coming years." "It's not like if I would stop here that I'm not going to do anything. I'm always going to have fun. And also I will have fun in a lot of other things in my life." "But it's a bit sad to be honest that we're even talking about this. It is what it is. You don't need to feel sorry for me. I'll be fine." He implied that a change of the rules would make a difference to his decision- "They know what to do"

People in a village in Manipur had to walk sometimes up to 2 days to reach a hospital. Villagers requested a road many times, but the government had ignored the demand for over 30 years. Then a newly appointed IAS officer, Armstrong Pame, promised to help and build a road. He asked the government for funds → No response. Instead of waiting on hope, he created a Facebook campaign and raised ~₹40 lakh through crowdfunding. Donations came from contributors across ~25 countries. He himself contributed ₹5 lakh from his own savings. He and the villagers themselves built a 100 km road in ~210 days. The road is named “People’s Road”. The government has crores for freebies, but no money for remote villages, because it is never urgent for them.
