in my little pony universe youd go to a job interview and theyd be like so how does your cutiemark reflect your dedication to this position. And every time youd have to spew some bullshit about how your cutiemark of two tennis rackets actually means youre a team player and good at multitasking and view the market like a playing field. or whatever. and you wouldnt even get the job
reading Anne of Green Gables for the first time is so funny bc Anne is primarily a sweet, eager, earnest, dramatic, imaginative child whoâs taking the world with open arms and loving life, and also sheâs trying to explode Gilbert Blythe with her mind
"you cannot have a category of person that stops being a person or everyone that someone wants to get rid of is going to end up being put in that category" and other really fucking obvious and basic observations that everyone ignores in favor of putting people they want to get rid of into a category they think makes them stop being a person
This is easily one of the CRAZIEST videos I've ever gotten. I was rafting down a river when a Yellow Jacket came, landed on my bright pink waterproof phone pouch, and started drinking from the water droplets that had gathered there.
The most amazing part is how the water droplet magnifies the Hornet's mouth parts, so you get to see them up-close!!!! It was FASCINATING to witness!
Here's some of my favorite still shots from that video:
Indian Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned on Saturday in response to rising pressure from student-led protests.
âCockroach Movementâ Forces Out Indiaâs Education Minister
"Indian Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned on Saturday amid mounting pressure from the âCockroach Movement,â which demanded major government reformsâstarting with his departure. Student activists accused Pradhan of failing to safeguard a competitive medical school exam, the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET), after authorities concluded that its contents had been leaked online. ...
Without accepting fault, [Education Minister Pradhan] explained that he had agreed to step down in order to prevent âanti-national forcesâ from exploiting the upheaval.Â
Abhijeet Dipke, the founder of the CJP, celebrated the resignation with fellow protesters in New Delhi on Saturday.
âIt's a victory for the people of India,â Dipke said to the crowd. He later posted an image of Indiaâs Constitution on social media, with the caption: âThank you.â ...
On the advice of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Indian President Droupadi Murmu appointed Pralhad Joshiâwho already oversees the ministries of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution, along with New and Renewable Energyâto oversee the Ministry of Education âin addition to his existing portfolio,â which is a typical arrangement in India following a Cabinet vacancy and does not preclude a later permanent appointment...
CJP Spokesperson Saurav Das said in an interview with local media ANI following the presidentâs announcement that the party members will be meeting the new education minister âvery soon.â ...
What Comes Next for the CJP?
The CJP established its list of demands on May 16. In addition to calling for Pradhanâs resignation, the CJP asked for compensation of 10 million rupees ($104,000) for each student who died by suicide following the leak.Â
They also sought greater legislative oversight of the educational system, gender equity in government roles, a fully independent media, and certain reforms to the electoral and political systemâsuch as creating a 20-year ban on politicians switching parties before seeking election.
Adding to those mandates, the CJP last week asked that the central government drop any potential charges against protesters, after claiming that several had been âillegally detainedâ by police.Â
Following Pradhanâs resignation, representatives from the CJP met with officials from the Indian government to discuss the rest of the partyâs demands. In a press conference following the meeting, Das said on Saturday that the negotiations had been successful.
"All our demands have been accepted,â he said, without elaboration. âWe request the protesters to withdraw immediately and return home peacefully."
The CJP added during the press conference on Saturday that representatives from the movement would meet with officials again in four weeks to work on broader reforms. Its spokesperson told local media that the fight for a transparent educational system is far from over.Â
He said that members of the CJP conveyed to officials that if the issues are not addressed, the protesters will reconvene âand demand accountability.â
