Freedom, hell yeah !

A happy Independence Day to you all.

You know I do believe that we don't deserve to be free or sovereign, and I do believe that the experiment called Indian Republic will be short lived as far as history goes. I also believe that generations who inherit this fragmented, divided land will toil in misery and bondage.

In that respect we are lucky. We didn't pay anything for freedom, and yet we enjoy its fruits.
There are some free lunches after all.

Anyway we shouldn't fret over future. As Carvaka said, borrow money and drink ghee, who is going to bother after death.

A useless anecdote, At Crossword, a popular chain of book stores, they put Linda Goodman under philosophy. Which may or may not explain the general state of things in India.

Meanwhile being Hindutva fascist, rendition of this communal song is mandatory. Some history.

TOI Again !

Just when we thought that Sagarika Ghosh had taken unassailable lead as the purveyor of meaning-less journalism, Bacchi Karkaria strikes back. Really even after raking my brain, I don't know what to make of this.
Menopause at 60. 60 is the new 40. Menopause is "Me-no-pause". Hey Bhagwan! Weep people weep.

Return of Razakars

As Swapan Dasgupta aptly puts it what happened in Hyderabad is a comeback of Razakars. Now I am not sure that those who write about Hindutva fascists have any idea about Razakars, or they will even bother about looking up wiki or google it (not that it is going to make much of a difference, after all everything can be blamed on Hindus).
Let me state it here I support actions of MIM. As I have said earlier, in the interest of Muslim appeasement secularism, if Indian Muslims want to be ruled under Sharia they should be allowed to do so, since Taslima Nasreen is Muslim and she has committed blasphemy, she must be prosecuted under Sharia.

End of times ?

I. Am. Astounded.

It is one thing to be assailed by the sight of Shivams, D' Souzas, and Jagadguru furiously pleasuring themselves, but how did this thing got in a newspaper, even if it is a lefty one ?

TOI !

Redoubtable idiot Jug Suraiya explains helpfully,

"national sovereignty is a portmanteau term"

Dear sir, I understand even idiots have to earn their bread, but please look up wiki if you don't understand what you are blabbering about. Please don't inflict your stupidity on mere mortals.

We are not worthy

I have absolutely no idea what punya I, no make it Indians, might have created in previous lives, but surely it must be the aggregate of those deeds that this land has been blessed with Jagadguru. And now, we, his humble devotees can not only read his divine words, doubtlessly inspired by Saraswati, but also listen to his graceful speech and behold his visage dripping of profundity. Surely, by merely watching him argue how BJP will nuke the crap out of Islamic countries (including Tunisia I presume) should enable even a mere mortal to master AshtSidhhi.
You can watch him and then drop dead here.

Moustaches must be banned...

... for gender equality.

On the other hand beards should be banned for aesthetics.
