41 killed in sewer-septic tanks in just 80 days of this year! Hundreds of safai karamcharis from 10 states gather at Jantar Mantar to protest most barbaric caste-based oppression in name of occupation. Join hands and raise voice to make this government listen! #stopkillingus

🚨 BREAKING: Spain will recognize the State of Palestine, with East Jerusalem as its capital. That’s a major diplomatic shift. Let's see how Israel responds.

A very sad day indeed. A bill that should never have been passed bulldozed through parliament. Trans people and others are on the streets protesting, but the govt doesn’t care #RejectTransBill thehindu.com/news/national/…

My transition, now at the stage of coming out in my social circles, came after years of internal turmoil. Just as self-acceptance felt within reach, the goalposts have shifted again @mridulasee on why the transgender rights bill does not amend but erases article-14.com/post/the-trans…

How ridiculous can an university become - that instead of provoding clean toilets it chooses to take action on the woman professor who raised a complaint! Luckily the court showed good sense and quashed the action. barandbench.com/news/deeply-un…

In 2018, multiple women of different age groups named one Poet - Lyricist as their molester. Today the Gnanpith is awarded to the man, after someone like Sri Jayakantan, whose daughter called Vairamuthu out for presenting a forged, fake letter by Sri Jayakanthan ‘praising’ Vairamuthu. A committee from Kerala announced him as for the ONV Kurup award which was later ‘returned’ as voices of justice from their society rose to speak against sullying Sri ONV Kurup’s name. The collective voices of the women who named him, were silenced. I paid a very heavy price - the rest of the women who left their dreams behind weren’t half as lucky as I. thenewsminute.com/tamil-nadu/my-…

“Stop the fighting. Stop the bombing. There is no military solution.” In Lebanon, @antonioguterres stresses the need for diplomacy, dialogue and the full implementation of the UN Charter. un.org/sg/en/content/…

In 2004 a student at IIT Madras built a website for fun. Just to track which restaurants near campus were open late. He shared it with his hostel group. Within a week the entire campus was using it. He added reviews. Then ratings. Then menus. Kept building. Kept adding. After graduating he turned it into a proper startup. Struggled for years. Almost shut down twice. Today that startup is Zomato. Deepinder Goyal started it because he was hungry at midnight and couldn't find food. The most billion dollar ideas don't start in boardrooms. They start in hostels at 2AM.

War as such is a major contributor to warming. When such reckless bombing is added, it is catastrophic

@Tspal01 @Abhadra7 @iiserkol @SrijayaNandi @SpringerNature In the paper there is no mention of how it was determined whether the chosen dog for the experiment had eaten elsewhere before it came to the field of observation of experimenter. Would that not bias the dog?

New paper from The Dog Lab, @iiserkol , led by @SrijayaNandi, now in Animal Cognition(@SpringerNature ). Do Indian free-ranging dogs prefer food or petting? 🐕 Food motivates more short-term, but both rewards build positive dog–human bonds. surl.li/hngsqc
