Looks like the city's traffic police misplaced their brains to their 'rear sides' this week.

The dance of democracy in Andhra Pradesh! A woman’s nomination papers were snatched from her hands as AP police officers stood by, watching without intervening.

VB-G RAM G scheme is a scam, at least in Beed. The scheme was being manipulated to add fake attendance, fake work sites.We traced 47 workers in 5 sites & found that they didnt know their name was listed. Crores are being siphoned off. Read the story here. scroll.in/article/1096483/wh…

Ashish Garu, The issue has been brought to the attention of the concerned officer for necessary action.

Shifted out of Mumbai last week. Gradually realised the city will be in a perpetual state of construction since that's how contractors and in turn ministers will make money. So there'll always be that next project, next renovation to make your life tough. And if nothing else, they'll break an existing one completed just few years ago to make something bigger. Living in Mumbai constantly felt like life in hard mode. And with a baby in picture, wanted to have a little bit of greenery and space around. And eventually schools with space. Used to love the city when I came 9 years back from Delhi. But something shifted some years back, specially post lockdown. Incidentally I think Mumbai was good to live as long as 'Dilli se aaya hai kya?' used to be an insult. Now let's see..

Pandal-hopping across west Hyd today came with a generous side of WhatsApp University news bytes from folks waiting in line for bhog. Good to know Dhruv Rathee, Umar Khalid & Neha Bora are now part of mainstream conversations. The concocted backstories are something else though.

Came across a fishmonger in a town called Bhanur b/w Mokila & Patancheru today evening and she asked me to bend into her drum-tank and catch my own fish, as she was pregnant. Ruined my new kurta in the process but boy did I provide a spectacle for my parents and others in line 🫡

Mumbai, Maharashtra: Model and Actress Poonam Pandey says, "The country is being made a joke of right now, what is currently happening? I mean, whoever wants can just get up and directly say, 'Prime Minister, resign.' I mean, what kind of talk is this? Is he someone from your neighbor? He is the Prime Minister of India. I mean, who is he, at least look at his name. This isn't how a country is run, What are you people even doing"

I hate to be the one to burst the Tesla bubble today, but the spectacular “flight” we witnessed at the Roadster reveal needs a little context. The car is carrying around 250kg of compressed air, plus the weight of the tanks, valves and thrusters needed to contain and release it. Based on the published figures, that gives it roughly 1.5–2 seconds of maximum thrust before the system needs to be refilled. In short, it's a gimmick.
