People who grew up working class have more stories than a canned line like, "My mom scrubbed toilets."

I'll tell ya what it's like actually going up poor in America.

First, you're ashamed to have friends come over to your house.

Shame is a theme of growing up poor...
We never travelled more than an hour from our house, because even if we could afford vacations (we couldn't), there was a good chance the car would break down on the road.

YEARS after having a car, as an adult I still had had flashbackers wondering, "Will my car start?"
Not knowing if your car will start is a feeling everyone who grew up poor in flyover area (no public transportation) knows well.

There's a sound a car makes when you pop the key in and move the ignition, and your car doesn't start.

Every so often I find it fun to try and re-articulate my worldview from scratch, often in the hope that there will be some new or interesting bit to it
1. We are cluelessly born into the middle of a bustling, chaotic story. We are tiny ants on a leaf on a branch on a tree, and everyone around us certainly seems to be in a great hurry
2. We start out as extremely local beings, embedded in our families, our peers, our communities. We inherit their beliefs, their aspirations, their traumas, their flags - most of which they inherited in turn. As children we are onboarded into their rituals and superstitions

ಸಿಂಧೂ ಸರಸ್ವತಿ ಸಂಸ್ಕೃತಿಯ ನಗರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ, ಮತ್ತು ಮಧ್ಯಪೂರ್ವ ದೇಶಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ನಡೆದ ಉತ್ಖನನ ಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ದೊರೆತ ಆಧಾರಗಳಿಂದ ೪೦೦೦ ವರ್ಷಗಳ ಹಿಂದೆಯೇ ಈ ಎರಡೂ ಭಾಗಗಳ ನಡುವೆ ವ್ಯಾಪಾರ ವ್ಯವಹಾರಗಳಿದ್ದದ್ದು ತಿಳಿದು ಬಂದಿದೆ.

ಇದೇ ರೀತಿ, ಸುಮಾರು ೧೮೦೦ ವರ್ಷಗಳ ಹಿಂದಿನ ಒಂದು ಗ್ರೀಕ್ ನಾಟಕದದಲ್ಲೇ ಕನ್ನಡ ಅಥವಾ ಕನ್ನಡದಂತಹ ಭಾಷೆಯ ಕೆಲವು ಪದಗಳು ಕಂಡು ಬಂದಿರುವುದನ್ನು ನೋಡಿ, ವಿದ್ವಾಂಸರು ಭಾರತದ ಪಶ್ಚಿಮ ಕರಾವಳಿಗೂ, ಗ್ರೀಸ್, ರೋಮ್ ಮೊದಲಾದ ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರಗಳ ನಡುವೆಯೂ ವ್ಯಾಪಾರ ಸಂಬಂಧಗಳು ಇದ್ದಿರಬೇಕೆಂದು ಊಹಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ.

ಸಿಂಧೂ ನಾಗರಿಕತೆಯ ಸಮಯದಲ್ಲಿ ವ್ಯಾಪಾರದ ಕುರುಹುಗಳನ್ನು ಸಾಹಿತ್ಯದ ಆಕಾರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹುಡುಕಲಾಗಲಾರದಾದರೂ, ಸುಮಾರು ೨೩೦೦ ವರ್ಷಗಳ ಹಿಂದಿನ ಕೌಟಿಲ್ಯನ ಅರ್ಥಶಾಸ್ತ್ರದಲ್ಲಿವ್ಯಾಪಾರಗಳು, ಸುಂಕ, ಊರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಎಂತಹ ಸ್ಥಳದಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾರುಕಟ್ಟೆ ಇರಬೇಕು ಮೊದಲಾದ ವಿಷಯಗಳ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಪ್ರಸ್ತಾಪವಿದೆ.

[THREAD] 14 OCT 1973 is the day that Thai people known as “October 14 Event” or “Day of Great Sorrow”. It is the great uprising of students in Thailand against the absolute dictatorship regime. #Thailand #14ตุลา #14October #History #ColdWar
It is remembered as one of darkest day in Thai Cold War history because there were many people died that day due to the fight between the students and government forces.
It started with “Thai students’ activism” which inspired by leftist ideology mobilizing and organizing demonstrations and rallies against the pro-American policies of the ruling government and ruling government itself.

Podcasts, ranked. A thread:

12: @mixedmentalarts , created by @bryancallen and @huntermaats . Accessible and lighthearted conversations with academics and others who get space to break down their ideas. I especially recommend to go back to some of the older episodes.
11: @TidesHistory , created by @Patrick_Wyman . It's a show about the history of the fall of Rome and the birth of the modern world. It proves the academic side of history can be fun and engaging.
10: The Tim Ferriss Show (@tferriss ). High quality, streamlined interviews with 'top performers in their fields'. It introduced me to many people whose ideas I now follow regularly.

#History/#Art thread – From my recent trip to Madurai/Tirunelveli. On Jain sites (some with a rich history dating back to at least the 3rd cent. BCE), early Pandyan rock-cut cave temples (7th-8th cent. CE) & the amazing Vettuvan koil.

Pic: Mahavira (~8 cent CE), Kizhakuyilkudi
Before I start on the places, the history around all this is fascinating & splits opinion. Is it apt to call the script Tamili/Tamil Brahmi? Did it develop independently in the Tamil country/come with the Jain monks from the north? Were 8,000 Jains actually impaled in Madurai?>
>Were the Saivites overaggressive in promoting their faith? Shall only be happy to discuss on these separately (unless it gets too long/irrational). And I’m not posting every inscription from the places here, despite their importance. Again, shall be happy to discuss them.
