Why I shifted from twitterBlame it on Gorakh Pandey
I see a high number of cross posts from twitter that I see on Mastodon.
It has convinced me that,
1) We are addicted to twitter.
2) Very few have something original to talk about.
3) Cross post of a celebrity is form of seeking justification of own thoughts.
4) Little conviction of own ideas on its merit, unless a celebrity echoes something similar.

This guy on twitter, wants govt to follow china's footstep to crush protest but ends up using one of the iconic pictures of 'protest'.
Irony dies a million death.

Uncovered: 265 coordinated fake local media outlets serving Indian interests - EU DisinfoLab

How could you know that your local news website, such as newyorkmorningtelegraph.com, thedublingazette.com, or timesofportugal.com serves Indian government interests? Here’s the story of how we uncovered this network designed to influence the EU and the UN by repeatedly criticising Pakistan.

@Gargron I made you, I made Mastodon and I made cats. You follow and boost cats on Mastodon, but you don't follow or boost me. You're turning into Jack.

बात हो

बात जात की नहीं, भात की हो
बात दुनिया में अपनी शान की नहीं
सबके रोटी, कपड़ें और मकान की हो |

क्या फ़र्क़ पड़ता है, वो हिन्दू था या मुसलमान
बात बेबस इंसान के जान की हो |

हथियारों का खेल बहुत हुआ,
बात अब रोज़गार की हो।

धर्म और संस्कारों की दीक्षा बहुत हुई,
बात अब कुछ शिक्षा की हो।

बात तुम्हारे, मेरे हित की हो।
बात जब छिड़ी ही है
तो फिर बात सबके हक़ की हो।

वे डरते हैं

किस चीज़ से डरते हैं वे

तमाम धन-दौलत

गोला-बारूद पुलिस-फ़ौज के बावजूद ?

वे डरते हैं

कि एक दिन

निहत्थे और ग़रीब लोग

उनसे डरना

बंद कर देंगे ।

@Deepsealioness Do you think I qualify for your booster shot?
An old photograph: Mirza Ghalib’s house in Kalan Mahal area, Agra, where he was born in 1797 and spent his childhood and part of adolescence. People in Agra don’t seem to be aware of its existence or location. This is the only property part of which Mirza could call his own, although he preferred to live in Delhi as an insecure tenant all his life.
