Tennis fan (on hiatus from fandom). Now posting mostly insights about life/existence as they occur to me. Indian. Thinker. Music lover.
Shame in general is a really counterproductive emotion. Even if someone does something very wrong, appealing to his/her sense of shame is not the way to go. Even hardened criminals are often "sleepwalking" through life and don't always know what they are doing.
Also, when will people stop grouping Iga's ADRV with Jannik's? Both are top players having doping violations against them and receiving leniency, but the specifics of their cases are nothing alike.
In some sense, Medvedev's 26-month title drought is even more astonishing than Iga's 13-month drought (now ended). Not only because it is longer, but also because he has the option to play more 250s than she does.
No, I prefer to be more optimistic. Everyone evolves eventually. Some just take multiple lifetimes to do so.
Maybe some people are not meant to evolve. Maybe they are just here to show you what it would be like if you don't evolve. -Zen reasoning
If you can learn to accept and even welcome the endings in your life, you may find that the feeling of emptiness that initially felt uncomfortable turns into a sense of inner spaciousness that is deeply peaceful.
You know what’s so disgusting? Modturds defending 💉💉💉 even when their own are dying.. This is the level of brainwashing
Clot or necrosis in lungs also lead to infection and pneumonia. Doctor will never test anyone for clot even if no other treatment is working. It's death sentence for anyone who is suffering clot in any organ because doctor will never test for clot.
Iga being a multimillionaire and still going on somewhat unpretentious holidays and in general being so down-to-earth is quite something. It seems that simplicity comes naturally to her. As long as she is happy, who can complain?
To those who have paid attention to my work, you'll know that I've predicted all that is unfolding in the West for several decades now. It is going to get a lot worse. The West has designed its slow demise by ensuring that strife, hate, division, and tribalism will become the…
If you die, someone on the Internet will find out your political leaning in a distant Israel-Palestine conflict, and basis that gets the license to justify your death, and go on to mock it as well. Everybody likes to be ISIS. And this is somehow liberalism.
Imagine your descendents walking through ruins of abandoned buildings and facilities. Imagine the economies of scale disappearing. Imagine the highest ambitions of humanity abandoned. Every original thought tortured by the realization that the elders did it better.
It is embarrassing that Christians wrote such hate speech against India. Right from the 2nd century till at least the 5th, Greek Christian authors were heavily plagiarizing Indian books. How do you hate pagans while still copying them? I never understood this Greek hypocrisy.

Valentová will most probably enter the Top 100 as its third-youngest member. Good period of consolidation for her, after she came through RG qualifying.
She’s miles more talented. I got pelters for saying Federer would make QF at Wimbledon even at 43. Sinner and Alcaraz are an aberration but nearly no good tennis players have been produced in 90s or 00s.
Venus getting a Wildcard was one thing. That she is actually outplaying a 23 year old is hilarious
Valentova a game away from a Top 100 debut.
A lot of WTA fans' feathers seem ruffled at the very idea that the current era is weak. For what it's worth, I think the current ATP era barring Sinner/Alcaraz is weak too, especially when it comes to Bof5 tennis. I have been very critical of the 90s-born generations.
ये हैं देश की न्याय व्यवस्था,निचली कोर्ट ने जिन आरोपी में से 5 को फांसी और 7 को उम्रकैद दी,और उनमें से 1 भी दोषी नहीं।इसका भी पता इनको 19 साल बाद चल रहा हैं।मजाक बना कर रख दिया हैं देश का Modi G.
Suffering is exclusively the result of attachment or resistance, it is a sign of lacking the readiness to go on, to flow with life. Nisargadatta Maharaj
