Finally caught up w/ @iamjohnoliver’s episode on Modi last week. Clear, brilliant explanations about Gujarat - “when you are being asked about your role in the deaths of thoussnds, you simply don’t get to walk out of an interview”. Strategic quiet now returns. #DelhiViolence
Impressive research, Amit Shah’s heinous speeches, which Modi has not disavowed, & so well explained on Indian govt’s “diabolically clever two-step way” on #CAA_NRC_NPR , the new citizenship register plus Citizenship Amendment Bill -& the detention camps. This before last week.

#ClapForCarers #ThankYouNHS

With such immense gratitude for the people putting themselves on the line for us all every single day. For everyone at #stmaryshospital in #paddington, and all our #NHS and all #carers across the country. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Never even knew so many people lived on my street. People out in force clapping, whistling and shouting “NHS NHS”. I can even hear people banging pots. #solidarity #ClapForCarers #ThankYouNHS #londonlockdown
Medic family and friends responded very emotionally to all the cheering and support. We mustn’t forget them in the days ahead. #ThankYouNHS

Incredible pictures of the #IWD2020 March in Mexico City, ahead of tomorrow’s historic nationwide women’s strike, when women & girls will not attend work/schools in protest against femicides & the culture of impunity in Mexico. #UnDiaSinMujeres #UnDiaSinNosotras #NiUnaMas

Excellent piece by @DimitriosGian on the signalling by a Govt, emboldened by Brexit, that the next step is to “take back control” of human rights too. Insular, short-sighted & ideologically driven - we should take these threats seriously. prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/the-n… via @prospect_uk
This week, FCO minister @nadams told MPs concerned about violent & systemic #humanrightsabuses in India this govt would put #HumanRights at the core of its foreign policy.

How does it do that *and* simultaneously suggest it may pull out of the ECHR?
If you haven’t already seen & shared @AdamWagner1’s excellent thread on all things European Convention on Human Rights, please do.

I finally caught up w/ Shield Hero’s LN, manga and anime. I’ve got a few things to say.

1) The harem is ridiculous in context. Raphtalia is a 10 yr old w/ the body of an adult. Filo is a 1 yr old w/ the body of a 10 year old. Melty is a 10 yr old, Atla is also a 10 yr old.
Sadeena is the only one in the harem who isn’t problematic. She’s 23, Naofumi is 20 and falls for him bc he can hold his liquor and she specifically falls for men who can out drink her (as somebody who plays D&D, it’s not that ridiculous to me to see something like that)
2) Naofumi as a character is understood horribly by fans. The gripes ppl had about slavery have merit. While Naofumi constantly digs at his fellow Heroes about the problems that they have, a problem that the Spear Hero has about Naofumi is grossly glossed over

Last week, #Modi govt told the Supreme Court that women don’t have absolute right to terminate pregnancy. I spoke to several urban, rural single women in 2013 & find out how common #abortions are. A moralistic lens pushes women to endanger their lives.

In India, a woman dies every two hours because she’s had an unsafe abortion, according to Ipas. I found out that lack of responsibility and sensitisation of the male partner was one of the main reasons for women to be clandestine about their situation and take the unsafe route.
The Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) Act came into effect in 1972 in India. The Act permits abortion if the doctor believes “in good faith” that “…the continuance of the pregnancy would involve a risk to the life of the pregnant woman or of grave injury to her physical...

Week 3 NFL Fantasy Football Bold Prediction Thread
Those who stood with me and drafted Zeke with a top 5 pick are reaping the rewards. This week Zeke goes over 200 scrimmage yards as he dismantles the dolphins and is the top scoring Rb of the week
Josh Allen detonates and explodes against the Bengals as the bills move to 3-0 and Josh Allen is a week winner as he finishes as a top 2 QB this week.

Week 2 SEC & ACC Thread:
Wake @ Rice (+19/58.5) Two played last year and Wake won 56-24. Deceptive scoreline though. Only 414-370 yardage edge for Wake, but 6.8-4.9 YPP edge. 137 plays so pace wasn't great, mainly due to Rice hogging it & Wake hitting big plays. Dortch 4 TDs w Hartman at QB n first start
Wake now has better QB and realize what capable of in air. They were still 17-20-243-4-1 last year, but that should be higher this year. Wake won great battle last week. Defense still rough, run game is bleh, but they are gonna go fast and stress teams via air and w QB run game

Finally caught up on Cloak and Dagger last night. Very sad that they had a giant shout out to Luke Cage, now that Netflix's Marvel shows are no more.
I mean, I'm not sad that it happened. It was a cool moment, and I felt like it informed what Ty went and did afterwards, but it was like... ohhhhhhhhhh.
I also appreciate how committed they are to never giving Tandy the weird cut out navel-plunging neckline even when it's putting the pair in obviously comic-inspired outfits.
