#CONservatives #Sunak #Brexit

If #Farage rejoins the #Tories, it finishes #UKIP, the #Brexit Party & the #Reform Party.

ALL their #FarRight votes go to the Tories, which is their ONLY plan for the #UK!

This is how desperate they are to retain power. They've fucked everything up & the only route left to them retaining power is overt, far right #Fascist #Racism by cosying up to Nazi Nige! 🤚😳

Agreed 100! #Sunak is so little & weedy, with such an annoying whiney voice, it's embarrassing!

The #Tories courted the #FarRight to win a landslide victory in 2019, but I doubt they thought a midget #Indian #Immigrant would become PM!

They ain't voting for him! #Braverman is doing her best female Indian Hitler impression to bolster her leadership credentials, but apparently only the gormless halfwit Dizzy Lizzy #Truss got a bigger reception than Nazi Nige Führer! 🤚😳

Good morning. Feels a bit early to call it Indian Summer, even with the warm temps lately. But the Zinnia blooms are still showing the marks of Fall. #Indian Summer #Photography #flowers #BloomScrolling #Chicago #Today #fall

court, to history

in - Annie Besant (nee Wood) was born in 1847. Annie was born in London, and married at age 20, but the marriage fell apart in a few years. She separated from her husband and began to write - she was an ardent supporter of worker's and women's rights, even publishing a book on contraception (for which she was put on trial and custody of her daughter was given to her ex-husband). She advocated for Irish and Indian Home Rule and independence.

Home alone cooking is getting more serious. Chole (I roasted the spices for this one), egg curry (with the eggs diced like my roommate used to do in university) and homemade chapati (I haven’t made chapati in more than 30 years.

Noon-hour, #Indian Head Mills. All are workers. The very youngest refused to be photo'd. The #Supt. seemed worried about my photographing the workers. He said, "Now we observe the child labor law thoroughly, but there are lots of persons in the #North who like nothing better than a chance to rap at #theSouthernCottonMills."

Can anyone recommend a good book on Modi, and modern India generally? I feel like I should know more.

@ZachWeinersmith
Apologies, I only know snippets of colonial history, and at that only through works of purile fiction like "Flashman And The Great Game" (might be a laugh if you're bored), and Kipling's Barrack Room Ballads book (that fellow knew how to write a book for a specific market!). If anyone knows of any Indian equivalent of the book "Putin's People" I'd be all ears too.

How did a Portuguese become a saint, whose worship is still strong today?

In a stunning fine-grained, , Margherita Trento (EHESS) weaves together all the threads of the and of a Jesuit in the early-modern encounter in the south of the subcontinent.

This brings the total countries to send spacecraft to the moon to 4.

  1. Soviet Union (Russia)

Started watching "Dead End: Paranormal Park" with the zergling today and y'all I know it's hard to keep having any kind of optimism but at the same time you've got a kid's cartoon with a #jewish, #gay, #trans masc main character, an #autistic, #anxiety-plagued, #indian, #bisexual main character, and the demons are adorable and way less creepy than the angels. And it's on season 2. It's just a cartoon but I mean...that wouldn't have been possible when I was a kid so this is still pretty great.
