(unsolicited) Feedback: Why are there other people on my CV? Who are they to begin with? And when a recruiter is looking at my CV, I don't want them clicking on other people.

The Beat it solo is one of the most unique solos out there.

I think we'll have to do this on our own and not rely on Hollywood or studios from the west. Bahubali was probably a good start. But more needs to be done. I'm starting to wonder whether it's a question of talent or question of capital. I seriously hope it's the latter.

People aren't coming here for learning (not the first priority), rather a college education is the gateway to a high paying job in the US and it's lifestyle.

Your friends are probably very garrulous. :)

Well said. Anxiety is sometimes a signal that there's an underlying imbalance in your life. Just like you start tearing up when you feel sad. Crying isn't bad in that scenario.
Anxiety works similarly. You gotta start asking yourself, why am I feeling anxious? Where could my life be out of balance?

The music sounds like the intro music from Tarkovsky's Stalker.

swamy_g | 6 years ago | on: Varanasi: India's city where people come to die
There's a documentary called Forest of Bliss about Varanasi. It's a non-narrative documentary (the best kind).
From it's imdb page:
A look at daily life in the city of Benares (another name of Varanasi), India, one of the most religious places in the country.
It's streaming free on Prime (https://smile.amazon.com/Forest-Bliss-Robert-Gardner/dp/B01M...)

What are you talking about? There are so many legit people offering legit services there. Yes, many of them are first timers, but their site clearly lets you choose people based on reviews and ratings.

People in US are scared of the police? I am from India and have been in US for a while now and have never been scared of the cops (unlike my time in India).

The headline is a bit deceiving. I thought there is a new human species currently in existence in the Philippines.

I'm an avid film buff, Netflix DVD has so many different movies across genres and languages. I find Netflix streaming so boring and mainstream.
