Suicide rates in india are absurd but papers won't report them as such because it's rude so it's always IT workers falling off balconies because of the wind or accidentally drinking pesticides because the instructions weren't in their language.

Global warming is barely a big deal at all compared to the trajectory we used to be on. We'll have to do a lot of environmental engineering projects along certain shorelines and it will be a little warmer and wetter in some places, big fucking deal.

fwiw this is because in some parts of india that wobble is their equivalent to nodding yes to show agreement or understanding.

Every day I dodge rapists and muggers, trudge through poo poo caked streets and cross a rickety bridged made of mottled ropes (it's the only nearby crossing of the Ganges that doesn't involve getting wet) for a pittance. But it's the best job available for an untouchable like me.

The only highlight in all this misery is when I get to waste some fat gently caress American's time. We play games. We see how long we can get them to wait on hold, how many times we can transfer them back to ourselves (acting as a manager) before they catch on, and so on. What are they going to do? Complain? They can't even pronounce my name right. The companies they buy their crappy products from don't care because we are so much cheaper.

If I made someone scream in rage at me that day, I feel happy during my trudge home.

Such is life.
