Song in the queue...


When you open Spotify, play a song, and then the next song is played according to their algorithm, it is sometimes a treat, and sometimes it happens to be extremely annoying. You are like, brooo, that was not today's vibe, that doesn't suit the mood at all! Spotify just knows how you feel usually and plays that, but today you don't wanna listen to that same song which you were maybe dancing to yesterday…

How surprising it is... Your playlist defines you, as they say... I would like to deny that today. Bcoz I am not that same person when I've completed my targets, I am not that same person in the morning when I don't really have a mood to study, neither am I the same person who wants to stare at the sun till it goes down and it's so dark that mosquitos will have you for dinner, nor am I the same person as nobody loves me, and offcourse not the same as I can do it with a broken heart, mostly it also cannot be like I'm unstoppable ( although I wish it was).

So… how does that poor app suggest songs anyway?
There are days I genuinely wonder; are there actual people out there with playlists named Angry, Happy, Sad, Furious or “I Don’t Know,” and still end up thinking, ugh, none of this feels right today? Because I have those days. And let me tell you, they’re the worst. When music — the one thing that usually lifts me out of my “I don’t know” funk — fails to do its job, I’m genuinely irritated. Like, come on, music, this is literally your moment to shine. Get it together! And then there are those times when you click on someone else's playlist — maybe it hits just right today. But fast-forward to tomorrow, and you're thinking, what the hell was I on when I added this to my library? Total betrayal.

It’s kind of like the wind. One day, the breeze through your car window feels magical, like a scene out of a movie. But that same breeze through your bedroom window? Now it’s just chaos, flipping pages, scattering thoughts. What will you do?

 

Close the window…

Indian festivals and ‘saki saki re’

For the last 3 years that I have spent living in the heart of Pune City, the Peth area, the question I have in my mind, like many others, is WHY? If it was for 1 time, I would be ok with it, but this has become the scenario for every festival, and every event. The extremely loud music systems. So loud and harmful that the cat near my hostel was scared and was finding a place to hide desperately, so loud that the windows in my room were shaking, and we could feel the waves standing anywhere in the radius of 10 meters of those speakers. The harm it causes is a long list. But people are ready to defend it, saying, Don’t you respect these deities? Are you not aware of X leader’s contribution to history? And so on! But the question is totally invalid, because how much do you respect that god if all you are playing is item songs like Saki Saki and then changing them if some old man scolds you near the stage? Yes, change 2 songs and play the same bullshit again. This is how much you pay respe...

Government Gridlock, Grassroots Gains: Rethinking Climate Responsibility

  Why Individual Action is the Key to Fighting Climate Change Climate change is one of the most pressing issues of our time, but the debate continues: should governments take the lead, or do individuals hold greater responsibility? While policies and regulations play a role, history and evidence suggest that individuals, through conscious choices and grassroots efforts, have been the true drivers of climate action. Government Policies: Slow and Often Ineffective Governments have implemented various climate policies, from carbon pricing and renewable energy incentives to stricter environmental regulations. However, these efforts often fall short due to economic concerns, political instability, and corporate influence. Failed Government-Led Climate Actions France’s Yellow Vest Protests (2018-2019) serve as a stark example of how government-led policies can backfire. The French government introduced a fuel tax designed to reduce carbon emissions, but this led to mass protests as fuel ...
