Cambridge (Massachusetts) [USA], January 24: Taylor Swift has been explained to exhaustion. Charts, eras, reinventions, crowd sizes, revenue numbers. None of that is especially illuminating anymore. What actually matters is quieter and a little less flattering: she learned how to stay present without pretending growth is tidy. Most pop careers stall because the artist clings to a version of themselves that once worked. She didn’t cling. She adjusted. Repeatedly. Sometimes awkwardly. Early on, she was dismissed as temporary. A teenager with a guitar, a country accent that came and went, emotions that sounded pulled straight from a notebook you wouldn’t…

New Delhi [India], January 24: Mirza Ghalib is treated like a relic. Framed. Sanitised. Quoted on calendars and WhatsApp forwards as if he were some polite uncle who happened to rhyme well. That version is convenient. It’s also false. The real Ghalib was argumentative, broke, vain, deeply insecure, intellectually arrogant, emotionally reckless, and almost permanently irritated with the world around him. Which is precisely why he still matters. Especially now. Especially here. India has a strange habit of embalming its thinkers. Once they’re dead long enough, we bleach out the mess and keep the aesthetics. With Ghalib, we kept the…
London [United Kingdom], January 24: People keep asking for comparisons because they want closure. A clean answer. Something they can screenshot and feel done with. International travel doesn’t work like that, and neither do credit cards once you leave your home currency and whatever consumer-protection fantasy you’re used to. So yes, this is listical. But don’t mistake that for comfort. 1. Chase Sapphire Preferred / Reserve These cards don’t try to impress you abroad. That’s their advantage. Visa network. No foreign transaction fees. Payments go through without commentary. When something breaks—flights, luggage, connections—the protections usually trigger without you having to…
Oxford [United Kingdom], January 24: We keep using the wrong verbs. Save. Reverse. Fix. As if the planet were a dropped phone screen and not a system with momentum, inertia, and a memory longer than ours. As if we didn’t already cross lines quietly, one data set at a time, while arguing about tone and timelines. The planet doesn’t need saving. It will be fine in the way rocks are fine. What’s unravelling is the version of the world we built our lives around. Stable seasons. Predictable coastlines. Agriculture that behaves. Insurance that makes sense. Cities where summer doesn’t feel…
New Delhi [India], January 24: People cling to brushing like it’s a moral act. Twice a day. Good person. Clean conscience. Still gets cavities and feels betrayed by the universe. I’ve seen this play out more times than I can count, usually in that stiff dental chair with the paper bib and the faint smell of disinfectant and regret. Here’s the blunt truth: brushing isn’t the deciding factor anymore. Not for adults. Not once you’ve been doing it consistently for years. Cavities that keep coming back aren’t a hygiene failure. They’re a system failure. Mouth chemistry, habits stacked on habits,…
New Delhi [India], January 24: Everyone pretends buying a domain is some big strategic decision. It isn’t. It’s a utility purchase. Like light bulbs. You want it to work, not surprise you later, and definitely not get weird with pricing after year one. Yet here we are, in 2026, still watching people get trapped by flashy first-year discounts and interfaces designed to upsell them into oblivion. The market hasn’t changed much. The players are familiar. The tricks, too. What’s changed is patience—nobody has any left. So let’s just say the quiet part out loud and move on. 1. Namecheap This…
New Delhi [India], January 23: Winter hair fall isn’t mysterious. It’s not “seasonal shedding” in the poetic sense, and it’s definitely not your body “detoxing” or whatever Instagram decided this year. It’s dryness. It’s friction. It’s neglect dressed up as bad luck. That’s the reality, and it’s been the same for decades. Cold air outside, overheated rooms inside. Zero humidity anywhere. Your scalp tightens up like cheap leather. Oil production drops. The skin barrier weakens. Hair follicles don’t enjoy living in a hostile climate, so they shed faster. Not dramatically. Just enough to scare you when the shower drain starts…
New Delhi [India], January 23: You look at the price first because that’s unavoidable. The RC 160 sits lower on the invoice if you stick to 160s, the R15 V4 (often called V5) creeps up a bit, and the Karizma XMR 210 lands noticeably higher once you spec it in the real world. On paper the numbers overlap. In real use, they don’t. Money buys different priorities, and that’s not romance. That’s performance math. In cities it barely matters. On real road, it does. Engine & Performance KTM RC 160: What you get: punchy little single that revs without complaint,…
You look at the price first because there’s no polite way around it. The Safari and XUV700 play in the same invoice band. The Hycross quietly climbs higher once you spec it the way people actually do. On paper, they overlap. In reality, they’re solving different problems while pretending to be rivals. The Safari charges you for presence, a diesel that still matters, and a ladder-frame hangover it hasn’t fully shaken. The XUV700 charges you for tech density and outright performance, then asks you to trust Mahindra to keep the software behaving. The Hycross asks for more money and gives…
Building a PC for video editing in 2026 isn’t about chasing trends or guessing what might work. The best PC specs for video editing are already known, argued over, tested, and quietly settled by people who edit for a living and don’t have time to romanticise hardware.

The CPU question is already settled People still act…
