@motumus correct. Don't forget to take your medicines at time :-)

@freemo he meant, when he goes back to his village/town where his parents grew up, people still discriminate.
In villages, there's less anonymity. People know each other personally and almost every thing about the fellow residents

@hackiechan those labels are a part of someone's personality, but when someone asks me about myself, i can't explain why i don't have a label and why i don't like one.
I feel lost in this world because everyone has something or someplace they feel connected with, i have none.

@hackiechan i agree to an extreme level. I've a tough time labeling myself and most of the times, i just don't belong to a label completely. I am bits and bits of both labels be it political leaning, sexuality or anything. I am always in between and it scares me.

Marriage is between a man and a woman. Except gay marriage, obviously.

@pranjali welcome to the community! I hope you have a great time :-)

Hi! I'm Pranjali.

I'm 24 and still trying to figure out this adulting business. From Mumbai, India and a little late to the party. I find social media stressful, so I don't do Twitter (et al). That said, this seems like a less noisy, more inclusive community, and I do love me some healthy public discourse. Trying to find meaning in the crazy. I'm here to listen, lurk, and occasionally spam you with pictures of my 🐾 babies.

The year is 2040. A 15 judge bench of the Supreme Court of India is sitting on the question of whether a review petition filed against the decision of the 13-judge bench in 2036 on whether another review petition filed in 2031.....

Via Rajdeep Sardesai on twitter - Breaking: SC refers Sabarimala to a larger 7 judge bench. Majority judgement says ‘court must tread carefully in matters involving religious faith and belief’.. this just five days after it’s Ayodhya judgement where faith/belief was a major argument!!

Let's wait to see fellow believers asking people to respect the

People don't want Supreme Court to decide whether women should be allowed inside or not because it's their tradition but they want the court to decide whether Burkha or Hijab should be allowed or not.

@Warhorse i belong to gen z but my dad made me watch them. It used to be so interesting.

Share something that only 2000s kids from India will remember.

@Warhorse true! They spend a lot of time and money on coaching classes and what do the kids end up doing? 9-5 job. This isn't how life works.

"Don't plant your bad days. They grow into weeks. The weeks grow into months. Before you know it you got yourself a bad year. Take it from me. Choke those little bad days. Choke 'em down to nothin'. They're your days. Choke 'em.”

Don't you just think about a word for too long and it just becomes meaningless?
Like, i was thinking about Wednesday, and it became meaningless. Why is Wednesday spelled Wednesday? Why is it Wednesday?

@realcaseyrollins i am not discriminating on the basis of age. The policymakers in our country are mostly boomers who on one side believe that young people are just dumb and on the other side, don't do anything about the education system that makes us slaves of corporates and system.

We have one of the worst ranks in the Global Hunger Index. Kids aren't getting proper nutrients to sustain their lives. What are we going forward with? Depressed Students, kids with malnutrition and no support system for them.
We have failed as parents, as teachers as a society, and as a country. It's upon all of us not only on the govt.
So, if anyone wishes me HAPPY CHILDREN'S DAY, I'm gonna say, OKAY BOOMER.
Thank you for reading this rant.

Hold up, India doesn't have these words in its dictionary. Because, the kids here are taught to learn exactly what the book says and copy-paste the completely same paragraph in the answers, to get what? MARKS.
Marks are so fking important in our lives that our teachers tell us what questions might come in our exams of what marks before even starting the Lessons.
One student commits suicide every hour in India and for every suicide, there are at least 15 attempts.
