This is hella cool. a 19 year old memorized and recited the entire Shukla Yajurveda over 50 days completely from memory, in the insanely difficult method of Danda Krama, which i'll explain in the next post - economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/new-upd...
Who is Vedamurti Devavrat Mahesh Rekhe, the Kashi teen who completed the Dandakrama Parayanam in 50 days after 200 years?
A 19-year-old Vedic scholar from Kashi has achieved a rare feat. Vedamurti Devavrat Mahesh Rekhe completed a 50-day continuous recitation of Shukla Yajurveda mantras. This tradition has not been witne...

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

If you loved FRANKENSTEIN as much as I did and you were nerding out like I was over all the amazing technical stuff, you need to watch FRANKENSTEIN: THE ANATOMY LESSON on Netflix. This 45 min. doc goes behind the scenes of making the movie and gives so much great insight. 🎥 #filmsky #frankenstein

FRANKENSTEIN! Guillermo del Toro's reimainging of the classic tale is a spectacular gothic delight. The practical effects, costumes, and production design are exquisite. Oscar Isaac is outstanding and Jacob Elorldi gives an incredible, heartbreaking performance. This is cinema. #filmsky #fyc

The USDA is the fail safe for SNAP.
They have a contingency fund to ensure it’s covered in the event of a shutdown.
They’re refusing.
Grocery stores stepped up to try and help by offering discounts to any SNAP recipients and the USDA told them they had to stop.
Starvation as a policy choice.

Getting new details on this now:
As the arrest unfolded, teachers pleaded with the agents telling them the teacher had a work permit. The agents went into multiple rooms looking for teachers while children were present. One teacher hid with a child in her care while the agents stormed the facility.

He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

like how little do you think of americans that “daily videos of masked men terrorizing children and tearing families apart” is an issue you don’t touch because you think you’re going to lose on it. that’s insane
again find it bizarre that national dem leaders avoid the topic of ICE even on here but have time to congratulate an unpopular former speaker on their retirement from insider trading at 85

2 years ago i was working a cash register at a store with a deli counter and i watched as someone's EBT card declined because their sandwich was toasted and that was a real "what the fuck is this system" moment
Most people don’t know that with SNAP you are banned from buying “foods that are hot at the point of sale”. So even if you have SNAP (which people don’t now) you can’t get cooked food. Which means you need to also actually have the resources to PREPARE a “healthy” meal.
Thinking about the social stigma against eating fast food in a country where poor people are being starved by the govt, the cost of groceries and fresh vegetables are astronomical, and a cheeseburger at McDonald’s costs $3.50.
“Clean” and “healthy” eating rhetoric is racist, ableist, and classist.
