A STAR WITHOUT ANY SHINE

Kolkata is known as the city of joy but is there really any? I asked every morning to myself.. Kolkata is known as the city of culture, art and beauty.. our India is developed and developing..yet there's still so poverty with no jobs that you can see people fighting everyday just to get a morsel of food to keep themselves alive.. i have enough for myself.. a shed to cover my head, cloths to cover myself, food to stay alive.. yet there's that feeling that maybe like me.. others life aren't same.. maybe they are starving for days.. yet I am helpless.. how much can I even do? Aside of it.. the main topic is about talent.. there's many talented people.. like genius peoples, artists, singers, writters etc..some people try to show their talent on the street like.. doing art or singing but some people with cheap mentality look down on them and see it as "begging".. i mean how can you?? They are just some talented persons.. art is art right? maybe they just want a chance? A chance to shine? Artist (any kind of art) are so rare these days.. maybe whenever people want to be some of the people around them say "well yeah.. you'll do that and? What would be your job?" They don't really see it as a job! It's just a hobby in their perspective.. but do i care? Hell naa.. so guys.. just focus on your dreams and shine as brightly as you can.. i love you all.. you can just shine as brightly as a star!! The society really don't care about everyone.. most of them aren't even real.. just stick with the people who support you and guide you instead of people who fake themselves and demotivate you.

    Quem quer aprender vai pegar um livro emprestado, um plano de internet bem barata, cursos gratuitos nela, irá dedicar um tempo para ler e escrever, existem outros sites gratuitos de divulgação literária, esse é um bom exemplo, é preciso insistir.

    The question underneath this is one about fairness. You're asking whether a system that locks talented people out of developing their talent purely because they can't afford it is just. Rawls offers a test: would you accept this arrangement if you didn't know whether you'd be born as the street artist or the wealthy student? If not, it's a justice problem. What Kolkata needs isn't charity; it's breaking the link between family money and access to learning.

  • Is Mammoth Cave too successful at being a cave to be interesting?

    It’s huge. Historically important. Geologically fascinating. Also somehow kind of boring. The same features that make it the longest cave system in the world also make large sections of it look like somebody hollowed out a government parking garage underground. There are cave systems in Appalachia that look like fantasy novels. Mammoth often looks like an unfinished subway tunnel.

  • Were the Romans far more progressive than we give them credit for?

    There is a common trend of young men being interested in the Roman empire out of movies and populat history, and imagining it as a militaristic, right wing hyper-masculine empire that was great for men. Spartacus, Rome, Gladiator... to different degree all give a perception of Rome being a sort of warrior-culture, sometimes bogged down by decadence. Gladiator II takes this to a ridiculous extreme. For that particular movie, I recommend reading Brett's, from acoup.blog , critique:

  • Can AI make you lose your mind, and are you more at risk if you doubt it?

    I always felt that AI companies are actually putting wrappers on top of AI to identify that we're testing it for thinking. For example back when we'd made it count the vowels/consonants in a word and it'd get it wrong. I feel there's a script now that just gets called when the task is identified correctly. I also feel that it gets trained on these memes. Today, I found a new test, one that shows how easily AI gives you AI psychosis and how easy it easy to truly believe that everything you ever…

  • Are the rich actually socialists who will never admit it?

    Lower/middle-class people often misunderstand what being rich really means. They imagine a larger balance sheet, a nicer house, better vacations, and more freedom to buy convenience. That is part of it. But not even the most important part.

  • Is prehab just cleanup for problems bad programming created?

    A lot of prehab is just cleaning up problems bad programming created in the first place. I do not mean rehab is fake, injuries happen, and some people genuinely need corrective work before normal training even feels possible again. But lately I have noticed how much modern lifting culture turns predictable programming mistakes into specialized rituals that get marketed back to people as advanced wisdom. The shoulder is probably the clearest example.

  • Does anyone actually care about your watch?

    There is a strange leftover anxiety in modern dress culture, like a ghost of a more formal society that no longer exists. We all still behave as if every visible detail is being quietly graded. The watch is one of the clearest examples of this illusion. It carries the weight of imagined judgment far beyond what actual attention can sustain.

  • Yellowstone is incredible, so why can't tourists behave around the bison?

    Look, Yellowstone is objectively incredible. The landscape is insane: steaming rainbow-colored pools, geysers erupting out of nowhere, herds of bison wandering through fog like the opening scene of a fantasy movie. But the actual experience of visiting Yellowstone is mostly just being aggressively instructed not to do things.

  • Does literalism flatten the Bible into a mere manual?

    One of the strangest assumptions in modern literalist readings of Scripture is the idea that the Bible should be treated as if it were a single kind of document with a single interpretive key. As if it were a legal contract where every clause must be enforced uniformly, or a scientific paper where every sentence is meant as a precise empirical claim, or a recipe book where the point is simply to follow instructions exactly as written.
