  5. "... And the lion shall lie down with the lamb ..."

    And, also, no doubt, the wolf. This lion and wolf have already divvied up the lamb and are sleeping off the feast.

    Australia Day, 2008. Not sure exactly where, but I had a late lunch upstairs at Leopold's in Mumbai, and this pic was taken at 13:24, so it's somewhere on the walk between my hotel and Leopold's. Since I don't know exactly where my Mumbai hotel was, I've pinned this on Leopold's.

  6. From Darien Fenton on #Facebook (with hashtags added here):
    'What Andrea #Vance said in The Post today:
    'Andrea Vance: If a foreign diplomat can stand up to Peters, why can’t #Luxon?
    'OPINION: ...
    'Only weeks ago, #NZFirst proposed stripping around half a million permanent residents of voting rights. Last month its #Mumbai-born Upper Harbour #candidate Bernadette Soares suggested temporarily closing the border to migrants.
    '...In April deputy leader #ShaneJones dismissed a trade deal with #India by saying he didn't want a “butter chicken tsunami” coming to New Zealand.
    'Do not diminish any of this as empty parliamentary theatre.
    'This is the exact playbook of Donald #Trump’s #MAGA movement. That is precisely how the rhetoric took root in the United States: first non-white #migrants were scapegoated and their #loyalty questioned, #voting rights were stripped, then border control was militarised, ICE raids become routine, and the civic fabric of a nation was torn apart.
    'To secure his own #political survival, Peters is dragging New Zealand down the same toxic path as the US and the UK, actively importing hyper-polarisation and fracturing social cohesion until the country becomes as divided and ungovernable as Washington or Westminster.

    'Its also straight out of another playbook: Peters’ own campaign manual.
    He has long understood the value of provoking governing partners into overreacting and then presenting himself as the aggrieved victim.
    'Which leaves Christopher Luxon with a problem of his own making.
    'By failing to draw a line early in the coalition, he allowed Peters to define where the line sits. Sack him now and Peters claims martyrdom. Keep him, and Luxon owns both the behaviour and the message it sends.

  9. #Mumbai is such an amazing place with a very accommodating culture

    I was heading to Thane this afternoon when going to the OSM mapping party on the other end of the city(I need to head there and shift trains) and the train was extremely overcrowded.

    I managed to squeeze myself right outside the coach entrance, barely hanging on and the people accommodated me on the already crushing train somehow and helped me find my footing, guided me on how to stand to maximise space. At the end, we had enough space to somehow squeeze one more fellow on there.

    This is... humanity. This is the level of respect they have for each other's struggle.
