I can’t believe we’re two months away from 2027 and the easiest way to save something as a PDF is still to lie to your computer and tell it you’re about to print it.

Sport is dying in India, aur karo Modi ko vote.
FIRST ISL, NOW PRO KABADDI! 💔 Indian sports leagues are taking a massive hit as broadcasters pull back from big-money media rights deals. Even cricket has reportedly faced challenges with its existing multi-billion-dollar ICC broadcasting deal. Cricket could most likely be hit next when the next rights cycle arrives!!! A worrying trend for Indian sports! 🇮🇳

How must Knoer of Crawford and Knoer (1981) have felt when Kelso got first authorship in Kelso and Crawford (1982)?

So many of the big TV/Movie/Broadway stars started on Glee. It would be so fun if they come back. Imagine Grant Gustin and Melissa Benoist coming back and singing the song from the Flash and Supergirl musical episode!

Living to 2105 is unlikely and I’m not sure I want to make it there
tomorrow is the last ever Pythagorean theorem day that we will ever get to experience. There’s only ever been 12 of them ever in our lifetime. And they will never be one ever again. How fun!🙂

If we believe that religion is the root cause of a lot of problems in this country, then we cannot make an exception for Durga Puja or whatever it is that someone feels is aesthetic.

Rebecca did the “Where are you? Let’s be having you meme”. So much tasteful fan service in Ted Lasso.

Peaceful protests is a democratic activity. Last time I heard India was a democratic country.

You know how annoying it is when you receive a paper to review, and it's just badly done or even AI slop? And you're like "it's not my job to clean up the stuff you were too lazy to do"? Now also imagine that it's about a topic that you've been working on for years. And that you can't really trust the results or check them, but it still takes away a large part of the rewards you could get for doing it well. And that slopocalypes happens to your entire field, all at once. I can understand why the mathematicians are pissed.
