@abnv@fantastic.earthTo make Americans understand how bad #AirPollution is in India, most of the big cities in #India have air quality as bad as #LosAngeles has right now, day-after-day, throughout most of the year. I read posts suggesting people to run HEPA air purifiers in and around LA, and here I'm, running three of them 24x7 in my house in #Bangalore, yet suffering from icthy throat and infections many times a year.
Q: Are there any photo walk groups or meetups in #Bangalore / #Bengaluru, India? Asking for a friend.
@red_rooster@sueden.social@ai6yr
So, I assume there are already some #airforce #Lockheed #c5 Galaxy on the way to #Bangalore or even already back with 345 IT-persons and their equipment each.
These are then parachuted directly to the authorities affected
i really love #Mastodon. the community here is so much nicer, there are no ads, nobody trying to manipulate me, and no "trends" that i don't want to see.
but there are, like, seven people from #India on this whole entire network, out of which there are probably only two who live in #Bangalore.
i lost a whole community of developers, writers, artists, journalists, and other creative folk from India when #Twitter died. that community hasn't managed to come together again in the same way.
i hope the melon man bankrupts Twitter as quickly as possible so that people can either finally leave, or Microsoft can buy it up and make it boring again.
Transphobia in India, Cops, Socio-Economic Abuse

Bengaluru police arrest two trans women under controversial Anti-beggary Act
These arrests are emblematic of a larger issue: the arbitrary enforcement of a law that was ostensibly designed to address begging but has instead become a tool to penalise individuals facing socio-economic hardships.

Does anyone recognize this charming long-horned #beetle @Pkbwood saw in #Bangalore? https://mastodon.online/@Pkbwood/109872186346124646
