So yesterday PCOS was renamed to PMOS. After 11 years and about 22,000 people fighting for it. If you’re one of the women who was told to just lose weight or come back when you want children, the reason it was renamed is going to make a lot of things make sense. Keep reading🧵🩷

India has 101 million diabetics. 43% of "normal weight" Indians are metabolically obese. The single most effective intervention isn't a drug, diet or supplement. It's also not walking or yoga. It's picking up something heavy and putting it back down again and again. New video: The Science of Weight Training youtu.be/OyxZAFlpsZA

Rest in peace, Raghu Rai. What a photographer. Iconic! Shaped the vision of so many Indian photographers and visual artists.

On Ambedkar’s birth anniversary, we remember him as a lawyer who became one of India's earliest crusaders for civil rights, long before he led the making of the Constitution. He defended Communists, Congress workers and others whose politics he often disagreed with, against the colonial state's routine use of charges of "sedition," "illegal assembly," and "causing public hardship" to crush dissent. The stakes were never just individual freedom, but civil liberties itself. Caste, however, shaped his experience in the courtroom. While Jinnah argued a matter worth ₹2.57 lakh, Ambedkar appeared the same day for a schoolteacher in a case valued at ₹24. "There is no hope to gain from legal practice," he said, "because it depends on touchable people." He chose it anyway. By the 1930s he had become a leading lawyer for trade unionists. When leaders of the All India Textile Workers Conference were charged with organising an illegal strike, his cross-examination led to the confession that the owners refused to negotiate not because demands were unreasonable, but because organisers were "of communist colour." All accused were acquitted. His fight was not only against colonial repression but against social power, entrenched in the Brahminical hierarchy. In the Chavadar Tank case, savarna Hindus claimed a public tank as private property after violently excluding Dalits — Ambedkar won, the court holding that centuries of exclusion conferred no legal ownership. His fight also extended to defending civic rights against the 'hurt sentiments' of dominant communities. When the Dalit writer of Deshache Dushman faced defamation for calling Tilak "an enemy of the nation," he argued the defamed was dead and the complainant, no close relative, had no legal standing. When educator Raghunath Karve's journal on sex education was charged with obscenity, he argued it would only reach readers already seeking such knowledge — not the general public the law was designed to protect. In a world where legal measures are increasingly used to silence marginalized voices, Babasaheb’s legacy is a timely reminder of the power of legal activism.

@Santacandesign Best

I want to tell people facts all the time. All I do in my free time is collect facts that I will tell people later. Even in books when authors insert "fun fact" I go yes, andrew that fact was indeed fun.

@Santacandesign 😭😭😭

He then asked me "if you plotted this yourself, how do I know you're not lying" WHY WOULD I LIE ON A RECREATIONAL PROJECT

At a party yesterday, a boy asked me "how would this even be useful" when I was showing this - I do it for the pure love of the game, the game being BRINGING MY ATTENTION SPAN BACK by being fully present while doing an activity
