Bombay Shaving Company does a full page ad for Prachi, The UP board topper, who was being trolled for facial hair.
— Gabbar (@GabbbarSingh) April 27, 2024
Havenโt seen something this desperate.
This message goes to their own TG, not to the people who bullied her, hey pls remember to buy our razors while you shed aโฆ pic.twitter.com/YWBDwgd6LU
===================================
Context: Grade 10 schoolgirl scored the highest marks in the state-wide annual school exams. She went viral because she's very hairy and her parents and her don't seem to care about her appearance. They should have at least given her a shave/wax to make her presentable before publishing her photo or appearing on TV. Why even print the photo or appear in an interview if you only wanted people to celebrate her achievement? The problem is Indian parents and boomers don't believe taking care of your appearance and health is important.
https://twitter.com/ians_india/status/1781640786641088524
Incels have been making fun of her and femcels have been defending her:
Atiq Ahmad was a notorious gangster that was recently killed.
Those haters mocking her probably couldn't even score as high as she did,lol !
"Don't feed her sweets as a celebration, wax her first"
Another copium post. Tbh it comes of as sarcasm. The caption says "laugh all you want but some days later you will be my driver and your bank balance will laugh at you". The user speaks as if she's landed on Mars. Bruh, she still has to complete her Grade 12 exams, not to mention heaps of other exams that land you a government job or enrolment in university.
Guy makes a good point but could have worded it more politely. Foids and simps seethe in replies.
The topper herself/himself responds to the trolls:
"Trollers can live with their mindset, I am happy that my success is now my identity......what will ultimately matter are my marks and not the hair on my face": https://www.siasat.com/up-topper-prachi-nigam-shuts-up-trollers-over-her-facial-hair-3014157/
===================================
Now, a shaving company does a full front-page ad on her on India's most read newspaper (A.I.R. stands for All India Rank (exams)):
Their intentions may have been good, but it feels like they're making fun of her lol
https://twitter.com/GabbbarSingh/status/1784091111793008767
Poor girl , hope she and her parents learn to care about her physical appearance.

Even in my father's village which is also quiet poor the houses at least have colour. Imagine showing this literal slum off with pride and wtf are those lanes if you're living in villages also like in your dalli slum then wtf is the point.
We can live freely in individual houses but we choose to live together in hovels I seriously don't get this pattern of houses in a village at all !bharatiya is this what villages in your states look like? Bengali villages typically were a home surrounded by some kitchen garden land and a pond. Because of safety reasons it never was homesteads in the middle of farm land but why would you live like this where land is dirt cheap?
Ooga boogas kanging now

Escape From Tarkov is an extraction shooter developed by Russian studio BattleState Games (BSG). It's somehow been in "beta" for 8 years. Players enter a game, find loot or kill players/AI and take their loot, then if they can exit the map they keep the loot.
The game has a weird monetisation model. The developers promised no microtransactions, no pay 2 win, the usual stuff that makes gaymers smile. Instead the base edition is $50, going all the way up to the Edge of Darkness edition at something like $150. What do you get for that? Basically extra space to store items between games and a season pass for all future DLC.
A few months ago BSG stopped selling Edge of Darkness and suggested they'd offer the features to other players as microtransactions instead. G*mers were less than pleased, but it all blew over in a few weeks.
Arena
Meanwhile, BSG released a seperate standalone game called Arena, which is basically a Team Deathmatch mode for Tarkov aimed at being an esport. Like most "esports ready" slop it flopped, probably because Tarkov doesn't do balance. There are good guns and shit guns, it's ultra realistic. Guy with the better gun and better bullets always wins.
So, 8 years after initial release BSG dump their money into a new, failed game. It's given out for free to Edge of Darkness owners as a "DLC" but still fails. People suspect that this might mean that BSG is running out of money.
PvE
Perhaps the biggest thing the players want is a non-PVP mode. A big part of this is because the game is hard and most players suck, but to be fair Tarkov also has a massive cheater problem.
I mean massive btw, cheaters can see every item in each game. If you enter a raid carrying good gear, the 3-5 cheaters in each map will immediately charge you down for it without fail. BSG supposedly bans these players but does little to stop it, probably because most cheaters sell rare items for real world cash and use the profits to buy a new copy every week. That said, it's been worse in the past. There were times when cheaters could just teleport all the loot in the game straight to them. Fun.
So naturally, players really want to get away from the cheating and play offline. BSG insists it's not possible, although somehow modders were able to reverse-engineer things and create their own Single Player Tarkov (SPT) mod. Someone is lying there, I can't tell who.
Unheard Edition
This week BSG announced a new edition of Escape from Tarkov - Unheard Edition. In this you get all the Edge of Darkness features plus a special knife, woo.
Just kidding, alongside the knife you also get a character with bigger pockets to carry more stuff in game, extra gear and a bunch of other utilities. Naturally gaymers are mad about these more blatant Pay 2 Win features. It's not too bad though, right?
To sweeten the deal these paypigs also get access to a new coop pve mode. Yay! The devs insist that this isn't DLC, but a unique game mode. Edge of Darkness players don't get it.
Oh, and they get a special item which makes the AI not shoot at them.
The best part? The new edition costs
$250
Cue rage.
Drama
The Reddit jannies open the flood gates and promise to be less neurodivergent than usual. Just don't use naughty words.
The devs have been caught repeatedly editing the website to remove promises they just broke. At this point you can just look at /r/escapefromtarkov and see a dozen threads full of seethe. Highlights:
The devs give in and offer Edge of Darkness players a 6 month trial of PvE mode. Redditors even madder.
The lead developer gives an interview where he shits on all the complainers, apparently "True Believers" will buy the new version.
This is ongoing. Will BSG give in or let it all blow over? Only time will tell.

I'll never hold civilian protester chants to the same degree of seriousness as Israeli state officials statements on international television. Somehow I'm less phased by college kids and moms chanting โburn Tel Avivโ than I am Israeli government representatives telling world organizations that they're โproud of the ruins in Gazaโ.
Kind of seems like trying to compare civilian protest to one of the most well funded militaries in the world, and that's just a flat out silly thing to try to do.
That might be the case but shouldn't we be concerned about people making these chants? They might not represent everyone's beliefs on the pro Palestinian side but it would be dumb to just shrug it off like it's nothing. [-52]
These are not Columbia university students. They're outside of the campus

Thanks to the libtard municipal government policy decriminalizing homelessness and defunding police in the past year, it has become necessary to resurrect this project by rigging up a new broadcast unit for the first time since 2021, to blast directly at a new homeless encampment on the other side of the property boundary.
I learned a lot from the original version of this project, so the new broadcast unit will be faster to set up since I have a refined design. I think I will start tomorrow and try to have the broadcast going by the end of the day. Also I have learned how to do some basic audio editing since 2021, so now I can add boost the volume/equalizer on music tracks that I previously would have excluded due to having too many quiet parts.
I will try to keep the new playlist relatively meme-y, but I cannot risk including any music of the 1933-1945 and 1861-1865 persuasion. During the original version of this project, I was able to shrug off most of the questions about that type of music from the local Karens, but it's more risky these days with moral busybodies and whiners.
But I feel confident in getting away with subversive music, especially if it's not in German or English.

We love animals, but tough decisions like this happen all the time on a farm. Sadly, we just had to put down 3 horses a few weeks ago that had been in our family for 25 years.

I grew up on a farm but luckily it wasn't Kristi Noem's farm or otherwise I'd be dead in a gravel pit.
I'm not making this up when I say she brought a happy tail wagging 14-month-old puppy to a gravel pit and then murdered it in cold blood and threw it into a shallow grave rather than find it a new home. Everything I just said is true and something she admitted to thinking she would get votes.
She literally wrote this into a book and it's not the only animal she murdered in the story lmao
This is the puppy btw:

To fully grasp the current situation in San Francisco, where venture capitalists are trying to take control of City Hall, you must listen to Balaji Srinivasan. Before you do, steel yourself for what's to come: A normal person could easily mistake his rambling train wrecks of thought for a crackpot's ravings, but influential Silicon Valley billionaires regard him as a genius.
โBalaji has the highest rate of output per minute of good new ideas of anybody I've ever met,โ wrote Marc Andreessen, co-founder of the V.C. firm Andreessen-Horowitz, in a blurb for Balaji's 2022 book, The Network State: How to Start a New Country. The book outlines a plan for tech plutocrats to exit democracy and establish new sovereign territories. I mentioned Balaji's ideas in two previous stories about Network Stateโrelated efforts in Californiaโa proposed tech colony called California Forever and the tech-funded campaign to capture San Francisco's government.
Balaji, a 43-year-old Long Island native who goes by his first name, has a solid Valley pedigree: He earned multiple degrees from Stanford University, founded multiple startups, became a partner at Andreessen-Horowitz and then served as chief technology officer at Coinbase. He is also the leader of a cultish and increasingly strident neo-reactionary tech political movement that sees American democracy as an enemy. In 2013, a New York Times story headlined โSilicon Valley Roused by Secession Callโ described a speech in which he โtold a group of young entrepreneurs that the United States had become โthe Microsoft of nations': outdated and obsolescent.โ
โThe speech won roars from the audience at Y Combinator, a leading start-up incubator,โ reported the Times. Balaji paints a bleak picture of a dystopian future in a U.S. in chaos and decline, but his prophecies sometimes fall short. Last year, he lost $1 million in a public bet after wrongly predicting a massive surge in the price of Bitcoin.
Still, his appetite for autocracy is bottomless. Last October, Balaji hosted the first-ever Network State Conference. Garry Tanโthe current Y Combinator CEO who's attempting to spearhead a political takeover of San Franciscoโparticipated in an interview with Balaji and cast the effort as part of the Network State movement. Tan, who made headlines in January after tweeting โdie slow motherloversโ at local progressive politicians, frames his campaign as an experiment in โmoderateโ politics. But in a podcast interview one month before the conference, Balaji laid out a more disturbing and extreme vision.
โWhat I'm really calling for is something like tech Zionism,โ he said, after comparing his movement to those started by the biblical Abraham, Jesus Christ, Joseph Smith (founder of Mormonism), Theodor Herzl (โspiritual fatherโ of the state of Israel), and Lee Kuan Yew (former authoritarian ruler of Singapore). Balaji then revealed his shocking ideas for a tech-governed city where citizens loyal to tech companies would form a new political tribe clad in gray t-shirts. โAnd if you see another Gray on the street โฆ you do the nod,โ he said, during a four-hour talk on the Moment of Zen podcast. โYou're a fellow Gray.โ
The Grays' shirts would feature โBitcoin or Elon or other kinds of logos โฆ Y Combinator is a good one for the city of San Francisco in particular.โ Grays would also receive special ID cards providing access to exclusive, Gray-controlled sectors of the city. In addition, the Grays would make an alliance with the police department, funding weekly โpoliceman's banquetsโ to win them over.
โGrays should embrace the police, okay? All-in on the police,โ said Srinivasan. โWhat does that mean? That's, as I said, banquets. That means every policeman's son, daughter, wife, cousin, you know, sibling, whatever, should get a job at a tech company in security.โ
In exchange for extra food and jobs, cops would pledge loyalty to the Grays. Srinivasan recommends asking officers a series of questions to ascertain their political leanings. For example: โDid you want to take the sign off of Elon's building?โ
This refers to the August 2023 incident in which Elon Musk illegally installed a large flashing X logo atop Twitter headquarters, in violation of building safety codes. City inspectors forced him to remove it. This was the second time Musk had run afoul of the city in his desire to refurbish his headquarters: In July, police briefly halted his attempt to pry the โTwitterโ signage from the building's exterior. But in Balaji's dystopia, he implies that officers loyal to the Grays would let Musk do as he pleases (democratically inclined officers, he suggests, can be paid to retire).
Simply put, there is a ton of fascist-chic cosplay involved. Once an officer joins the Grays, they get a special uniform designed by their tech overlords. The Grays will also donate heavily to police charities and โmerge the Gray and police social networks.โ Then, in a show of force, they'll march through the city together.

Archaeopteryxes are about the size of a blackbird and are flying creatures that are considered the evolutionary ancestor of modern birds. They have two wide wings they use to fly and glide. However, unlike modern birds, archaeopteryxes have bony tails. They have beaks with sharp teeth which they use to tear flesh, for they are carnivorous. Prey is killed using their hyperextended second toes that hold a large claw.
We're not going to be talking about this extinct species. Instead, I'll be talking about three public freakouts. Your job is to decide if it is justified or not.
Who will clean your pottys?
This is a favorite of mine. It takes place om The View during a fierce debate surrounding Trump's anti-immigrant stance. In a bid to prove Trump's racism, kelly osborne makes a racist statement herself. She asks "if you kick every latinx out of this country, then who will be cleaning your potty Donald Trump?!" Her comment immediately elicits gasps and the camera hilariously pans to one of the latinx hosts who admonishes her.
Do you think she was being racist, or was she making a good point?
father spanks children for stealing
In this video we see a father whip the shit out of his kids for stealing. This is an ineffective form of parenting. As wikipedia tells us:
It looks really sore and I'm sure those kids will never forget it. Imagine the damage that's been done between parent and child when violence is introduced.
Do you think the father did the right thing?
Look who's leaving
There's some sort of awards ceremony going on at a high school. It's clearly been going on for too long and some parents are leaving. The principle says "look who's leaving, all the black people!". This causes an uproar which then does cause all the black people to leave. In a subsequent interview, the principle blamed the ordeal on Satan.
Do you think she was making a fair observation, or was she being racist?
Conclusion
I think I got rejected by the same person twice. I'll write a long-winded post about it soon. Oh well, I think I need to learn to get over it. She doesn't have feelings for me, and that's the deal. Tune in next time when we discuss the DC Snipers.

I will soon be finishing my undergraduate degree. My university has requested my "preferred name" to display on the diploma. I think it would be funny to submit "[my name], King of the Rats". I also intend to apply to law school within the next year. I have 2 questions:Are diplomas submitted in law/graduate school applications, or just records containing GPA and the like?
If yes, is it a real concern that doing this might hurt my prospects? I personally feel it is a harmless bit of self expression, but I could see the possibility that a recruiter considers it a sign that I'm not "serious".
What could go wrong
