A Swedish teen raped for hours by a group of immigrants. Gun in her mouth, then shoved into her v€gina. Clothes covered in blood. The doctors had never seen anything like it. Look at these bloodstained clothes… they’re hers. This kind of horror didn’t exist before mass immigration. And it keeps happening. Protect our daughters.

An Afghan woman was raped. Because her attacker was married, she was jailed for “adultery.” She gave birth in prison. Then agreed to marry him— for her daughter’s survival. I can't even begin to make sense of this. 🤦🏽‍♂️

#Maharashtra | An #SSC student, taking her board exam in #Nashik, was allegedly denied permission to use the #washroom by a woman invigilator when she said she had started #menstruating, forcing her to sit through the remaining hour of the assessment. Read here 🔗toi.in/k9pIIb

Jaipur, near Jal Mahal… foreign tourists allegedly harassed, surrounded, filmed like objects. This is not “hospitality.” This is intimidation. People come to India with curiosity and respect… and leave with fear and trauma. One such video is enough to damage the image of the entire country globally. > Where is accountability? > Where is policing in tourist hotspots? @jaipur_police Again I am saying this clearly… there must be dedicated tourist police at every major tourist spot. Not on paper, but visible on ground. We talk about boosting tourism, but ignore basic safety and civic behaviour. Fix this now… or wait and watch India slowly getting blacklisted as a travel destination. Identify the culprits. Take strict action. Silence will only encourage repeat.

@Queeneth01olx Had that with my mother. Realized that i was delusional to think she would want an escape. Realised later she herself is a narcissist. Left her completely, as i have been trained to be her emotional sponge since childhood.

I helped a woman escape an abusive marriage. Found her an apartment. Paid the deposit. Moved her in myself. Months later, the trauma bond pulled her back in. She told him everything I did. Then, the husband showed up at my door. She was my neighbor before the escape. I heard things through our walls I can’t unhear. One night it got bad enough that I knocked. She opened the door, terrified, and whispered, “We were just arguing.” I didn’t push. But I left my number. Three weeks later, at 1am, she finally called. I moved quietly. > Didn’t involve her family. She said they’d send her back. > Didn’t call the police. She begged me not to. I used my own money and my own connections. Got her out in 48 hours. She was free. New place. New number. New start. I checked on her every week. She seemed okay. Then one month she stopped picking up. I assumed she needed space to heal. Later, a mutual friend called me. Did you know she went back? I sat with that for a long time. The cycle of abuse is a powerful, terrible thing. Two weeks later, a knock on my door. Her husband. Calm voice. Dangerous eyes. I just want to talk about what you did to my family. I won’t share everything that was said that day. But in that moment I understood something deep: When you help someone who isn’t ready to be helped, you absorb their consequences. I don’t regret getting her out. If someone asks for a lifeline, you throw it. But I learned a hard and uncomfortable truth that day; You cannot want someone’s freedom more than they want it for themselves. That experience taught me how to love people well and protect my own peace at the same time. Now I know exactly when to throw the lifeline… and when to pray from a distance and keep my own door locked. She’s still with him. I pray for her every single day. But I moved apartments, protected my peace, and kept the lesson. Some life lessons cost you your safety… but the wisdom you gain from them becomes armor for the next person who needs you. Have you ever had to learn the balance between helping someone and protecting yourself?

Can I say something? Ok, I'm going to say it anyway. My heart dropped watching this. While the intent is commendable and the outcome fortunate, the technique is not correct, also terrifyingly dangerous, by current newborn resuscitation standards. And for a Pediatrician to do this, its downright negligence. The cornerstone of newborn resuscitation for an apneic (not breathing) baby is positive pressure ventilation (PPV) using a bag-and-mask device (self-inflating bag or T-piece resuscitator), not mouth-to-mouth. The standard sequence is: warm → dry → stimulate → clear airway → if still apneic/gasping, begin bag-and-mask ventilation within the "Golden Minute." Giving mouth-to-mouth is problematic (read: can kill) in newborns. The doctors cannot control the pressure or tidal volume delivered. Newborn lungs are extremely fragile, and uncontrolled breaths (as this doctor is giving) can rupture and burst their little lungs. Additionally, there is infection risk in both directions (doctor → newborn and newborn → doctor). It's not a monitored or standardized intervention. A CHC (Community Health Center) conducting deliveries is required to have a functional newborn resuscitation corner with a bag-and-mask device. That's a basic NSSK (Navjaat Shishu Suraksha Karyakram) mandate. If the doctor had to resort to mouth-to-mouth, it raises serious questions about equipment availability and facility preparedness - which is the real issue worth highlighting rather than celebrating this as heroism. The baby surviving is wonderful, but framing a suboptimal, potentially dangerous technique as "clap worthy" sets a problematic precedent. If you are a pediatrician and a healthcare worker in charge of newborns, please never, ever, do this to the child.

@Nalanda_index Where is the bag and mask. There are safe protocols to save a newborn. This kind of CPR is not required, nor has an added advantage. BMV is the safest way for newborn resuscitation.

Dr. Sulekha Chaudhary, Pediatrician at CHC Agra, saved a newborn’s life today. 👏🏼❤️ The baby was born without any movement. Oxygen support was given first, but when that didn’t help, Dr. Chaudhary performed mouth-to-mouth resuscitation for nearly 7 minutes and the baby started breathing! A true hero in action. 🫶

Location: Varanasi (Kashi/Banaras) A video shared by student Anaya (with Aditi), reportedly from Banaras Hindu University, has gone viral on Instagram. She wrote: "Today, on my way to college, a boy in an auto tried to touch me deliberately. The moment I started recording, he got off and ran. This is the reality we face safety for girls still feels like a myth." Such incidents are a stark reminder that harassment in public spaces is far too common. Authorities must act decisively identify offenders, enforce strict action, and ensure that women can move safely without fear. Accountability and safety cannot be optional. @Uppolice

Growing up with #narcissists and you first start to realize that they’re jealous or envious of you and it’s like, “????! why!? Why are you even feeling like that!? We’re family?! You got me on your side, whatever you need! Please stop being mad at me for existing!” And then the hard reality settles in that they don’t understand that. They CAN’T understand it. They only see competition.

@Ryan_Daigler Took a whole lot of abuse and growing up, to come at this painful realisation. That not only your sister but your very own fucking mother sees you as a competition. Never saw you as a child of her own. I dont think i have ever had any wound that is this deep.

Looking forward to start this virtual course upcoming week, balancing with work.

Your anger is strong because your boundaries were violated for years.

Major TW High Court bench recorded that accused - g@gged the 5 years old girl - used a knife for enlarging her vag!na so his pen!s could enter with ease. - When blood started spurting out her vag!na, he wiped it with a cloth and continued r@ping her. - put her body in a plastic tank when she d!ed And SC has stayed the death penalty of this ‘rarest of the rare’ case.

The world mired with projections while the real only reflects; for the eyes to SEE!!

Women living in India's most heat-vulnerable districts are reporting increased violence during peak summer months, underscoring how extreme heat could be linked to escalating risks for women and a source of household tensions.

Oversharing as a trauma response is very common among survivors of narcissistic abuse — especially for those who were the scapegoat or subject to constant emotional invalidation, gaslighting, or character assassination. This is a trauma-born strategy for self-protection, especially when you've been falsely labeled as “the bad one,” or “the manipulator.” Often stemming from an internalized belief that you're inherently suspect or guilty. Transparency became a form of armor: -"If I’m fully open, no one can accuse me of secret motives." -“If I tell them everything, I won’t be misunderstood." -“If I explain myself thoroughly, I won’t be scapegoated again." The intent is noble — you wanted honesty, clarity, fairness. But the tragic part? Narcissistic people weaponize transparency. They: -Use your openness to control or take advantage of you -Pretend you’re “confessing” to wrongdoing -Store your truths and vulnerabilities to later shame or punish you So your transparency, instead of protecting you, often reinforces the abuse. 🧵
