During the Bangalore floods, an area that was badly affected was Outer Ring Road i.e ground zero of tech companies. In all the footage, you'll notice a red skywalk appear again and again. There's a story behind this skywalk. And it's a metaphor for the city's urban governance.

Abortion is legal in India, and has been since 1971. But is it accessible? A summary of ten years' of ethnographic experience. 0/7 PS: Observations may differ from medical practitioners, due to the inherent difference in lens. Thread at @swatiatrest's invitation.

I once wrote a statement where I almost 'condoned' violence before a classmate pointed out that I might mean to write 'condemn.' It escaped the eyes of at least 5 readers before that.
condone is the weirdest word in existence in the english language. the damn word feels like it means the exact opposite of what it actually means. very frustrating word

My uncle, Daniel, died of AIDS in 1984, three years before I was born. A few years ago, I was blessed to meet Nick, a close friend of his who still lives in SF. He had a wall of 8x10 photos of deceased friends in his home and he gave me the ones he had of Dan in a neat folder.

Do you remember Akhlaq Salmani? In August 2020, his arm was chopped off for allegedly sporting an Islamic tattoo. Please follow the thread for his story.

Let it be known for the rest of history that @JinkxMonsoon invented and annihilated Snatch Game because nothing was the same before her and nothing will be the same after.
I just finished writing for 14 hours straight, something I could have easily finished over the last 14 days if not for my complete lack of ability at movement and thought. My head feels like a spinning top but I am mostly glad that it's over.
