@danielobvt @RedactedDeGen @toylan20 What’s GLP1?

@RedactedDeGen @toylan20 No argument there. It’s hard to look at old pictures of me, but also realizing that the tools that got me free weren’t readily available until the last few years. GLP1’s saved my life (fixing my inflammation, blood sugar and a ton of other metrics other than weight) Fluffy to fit

Can a man who was never "ripped" before get ripped if he dedicated himself to the gym in his late 40s?

@ErikaMorris79 This is such a good analysis. Strongly believe that a good captain performance will always benefit the teams performance. Iyer is a key and you can see that PBks has benefited this season. Erika worth a call to change profession and move to India ehh?

We hear a lot about players playing a 'captains innings or a captains knock.. but how are #IPL captains faring in their respective main skill (ie batting or bowling)? Yes its only a few games so far, so this mini thread will look at this season, the last two and then the last ten #DCvGT

@rationalkeeda @RandomCricketP1 @mybmc @MumbaiPolice @mybmcWardPN Most of my life I lived in India and would suffer through this. But now that I live in the UK I realise tha such noises are almost absent here even when there is construction going on. Someone educate me is it a diff way to construct? And no pollution too

@RandomCricketP1 @mybmc @MumbaiPolice @mybmcWardPN Nothing against you. I get your frustration but hope you do understand thats how construction works. The building which you are living in was built by the same method and would have created same amount of noise. Contractors are already frustrated with BMC. Please dont add to it

@ErikaMorris79 You are brilliant @ErikaMorris79 😂😂😂

So India won the toss and chose to field.. #INDvWI In Eden Gardens is it better to set or chase? 18 T20i played there 9 won by the team batting first 9 won by the team chasing Who has the highest successful chase there? India against West Indies in 2022 👀👀 I really can’t call this one #T20WorldCup2026

@mun33b5 @AverageOntarian @paulharris12 @prasannalara I agree. While I love the thought process of this article I do feel that we don’t need to innovate for the sake of it. Associate teams and fans will be able to enjoy it more if we keep things simple. The old ad agency’s KISS formula always works.

@AverageOntarian @paulharris12 @prasannalara Just clicked on ur link, and ended up reading through it all. Good work !! My 2 cents, Statistics are great, but overdose does not necessarily mean good as well. Things should be simple, logical and relevant. Anyways.....

I will ask the best cricket stats man I know @prasannalara how do they come up with this shit?

Two Pakistani journalists discuss the Quran and the Bhagavad Gita. Take 5 minutes out to listen to this. This is gold.

@Arshadyousafzay I am an Indian Sindhi Hindu and came across this accidentally. Reminds me of my childhood when my uncles would speak similarly once drunk. It’s funny in a way.. although hope appropriate action is taken

Sindh University Dadu Campus Pro Vice Chancellor Azhar Shah has been accused of arriving at work daily in an intoxicated state, almost drunk 🥴, using abusive language, and disrupting classes. He’s suspended and an inquiry has been initiated. Check English Speaking Skills

Sorry for falling for this person’s crap ragebaiting all the time, but Pakistan’s biggest province is literally slashed in the middle with one part in India and one in Pakistan. What should we consider it and its culture? Part of the ancient land of Pakistan? How are the ethnicities between these two Punjab’s different, exactly? Many of them even retain the same surnames (kamboh, sidhu, cheema, chattha etc.) Culture is not boxed neatly into nation states which are a relatively recent historical invention, it is a shared heritage that slowly changes shape from one place to another such that you can often observe that shift from region to region in language, food, clothes, traditions etc., and yet be able to clearly see the thread that connects them all. Rivers or ancient history aren’t the only ways to measure the cultural continuity of a region (although you can absolutely argue continuity even in that regard. There are dozens of IVS sites in modern day India and the language of the people of the IVS was Dravidian (all the languages spoken in South India today are classified as Dravidian). Plus, in all likelihood they were ancient pagan worshippers, what does modern Pakistan have in common with any of that). IVS ended nearly 4000 years ago. Does this person and his ilk thing nothing happened in those 4000 years, and today’s Pakistan can possibly define itself through something ancient, and conveniently forget everything that came in between? Sindh and Punjab are obviously extremely naturally part of the Indian civilisation but even many parts of KP, especially Peshawar, became very much Indic as a result of Ranjit Singh’s takeover of many Afghan territories after centuries of invasions from the Afghan end. As for Balochistan, it’s the only place in Pakistan where a Dravidian language is still spoken (Brahui) connecting it directly with India. And as the OP mentions, Mehrgarh, the oldest Indian civilization in existence was also in Balochistan. Coming to Ganga-Jamuna being Indian only and thus far removed from Pakistan: why did his daddy Jinnah force the quintessential Ganga-Jamni language, Urdu, on to Pakistan if he thought this land was so separate in nature. In the last century, some of the greatest practitioners of this Ganga-Jamni language came from Pakistan.

@Its_CineHub Are u mad. 😡 New Agneepath was ultra crap the original Amitabh b was great. Both the originals of don and agneepath were better than the new ones.

@alexsrv @Its_CineHub No disrespect to Hritik, but #AmitabhBachchan is something else. The whole of Hritik's #agneepath can't compete even with this single scene.

@Its_CineHub If it is Acting / Performance wise, then not of #Agneepath and #Don... #AmitabhBachchan was playing on different ground. His Walk, dialogues, and voice were something else.

@jay_jumnani @rickykej @AshGowariker I agree. Mohenjo Daro is actually how the Sindhis described it … meaning mount of the dead. Not the name of the country or area as is depicted in the movie. Understand cinematic liberty but this made me squirm

@rickykej @AshGowariker Wrong history of Sindhi culture.. faltu ka romantic drama bana diya.. and you say ki it's good?

Watched the film Mohenjo-Daro for the first time. Did not have much expectations because of some bad reviews, but it turned out to be a very good film. Great story, well directed by @AshGowariker, loved how he managed to create an epic story spanning all the cities within the Indus Valley.. it is tough to create a film based on a subject which historians themselves know so little about. Most of the performances were good. @arrahman songs and BG score was excellent, loved the clean lines and minimalist set designs.. CG too was good for its time.

And now I’m here on this rather moist Sunday morning and I thought I’d treat you to a little history walk about the Great Fire of London, Pudding Lane and a Monument.

My years as a colony kid were some of the best years of my life. It was when Poona was just becoming Pune. We lived in IMD Colony in Pashan. This was at a time when Pashan was a scattering of science and research establishments separated by great wide spaces. +

That was best part of life. Channels were less, less options, no otts. Boogie woogie used to have 4-5 days continuous shows, zee cine - filmfare awards were a thing, top 10 moments of year by ndtv and dainik bhaskar used to bring curiosity. New year was just some colddrinks, home made junk and 3-4 neighbourhood homes :)

great to see everyone at AI rabbithole event today! as promised, here's my deck with abbreviated narrative. (video was recorded, will share when available)

Have we scaled stupidity... and shrunk intelligence? 🙄

The one #Dhurandhar review I was looking forward to was @sabizak’s—always thoughtful and never tribal, or at least not in the way that many people are on this site. TLDW: Magnificent movie, notwithstanding a few factual glitches. [27m] youtu.be/XSqNvv-L_7A?si…

I was 20 when I first came to India with nothing but a restless mind and an old Enfield I bought from a friend in Delhi who taught me to ride in one dusty afternoon. He took my money, flew back to Florida, and left me with one rule: don’t hit a cow, and only ride between 2–6 a.m. if you want to survive the heat and smog. Somehow, that became a philosophy for everything that followed. I crossed the country like a kid inside a dream — Calcutta to Delhi to Rishikesh — sleeping on the bike when I had to, chasing chai stalls to stay awake, tossing the bike on trains when I could afford it. I swam in the Ganges, did yoga with elders who moved like water, bought vinyl in back-alley shops, fell in love the way only your twenties let you, and wrote long confusing emails to my mom from glowing village internet cafés. In Gujarat I stopped long enough to help with earthquake relief, eat thalis in strangers’ homes, and learn “Kem Cho” and “Majama.” India didn’t just teach me independence — it cracked me open creatively. It showed me how improvisation is its own kind of discipline, how getting lost is a form of education. I never imagined I’d be invited back years later to collaborate with artists I once watched on café computers — working with actors like SRK, making videos like “Lean On” that crossed billions of views, nearly dying during spiritual side quests in Leh and Varanasi, falling for Bollywood sweethearts, and still believing every strange turn meant something. Twenty-five years later I returned to these roads, riding nine hours a day across the Himalayas on a much newer Enfield. And then — perfectly — I ended up performing at a massive Enfield festival in Goa and celebrating afterward in a motorcycle garage, as if time folded back on itself. Two decades have changed India and me both. But every time I come back, I feel the same truth: growth happens when you surrender to the unknown, when the road teaches you more than any classroom could. India was my beginning. And somehow, it still is.
