Arwi dates to the 8th Century CE when travel and trade in the medieval world sparked a curious intermingling of tongues. It leapt to prominence in the 17th Century, when more Muslim Arab traders landed in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu, which was full of Tamil speaking people. The traders brought with them rich tapestries and the finest textiles and perfumes like frankincense and myrrh–records say they longed to establish a deeper connection with the local people because they felt connected by a common religion but spoke two different languages.

The Arabic that the traders spoke intermingled with the local language of Tamil to create what scholars call Arabu Tamil, or Arwi. The script employs a modified alphabet of Arabic, but the actual words and their meanings are borrowed from the local Tamil dialect.

Indian health activists say they have long tried to raise the alarm about lax manufacturing practices and regulatory oversight around the booming industry. In their book, The Truth Pill, health expert Dinesh Thakur and advocate Prashant Reddy write that India's first recorded case of diethylene glycol poisoning was in 1972, when 15 children died in the southern state of Tamil Nadu. Since then, there have been "mass poisoning events" in several Indian states, they say, adding that the death tolls may be much higher as diethylene glycol poisoning is hard to diagnose. The authors say companies usually don't "test either the raw materials or the final formulation before shipping it to the market".

Old Internet Fridays #11: Fashion's Unseen Stories

Transform Trade Unseen Stories Project

What’s this?

What’s this website?

A UK based advocacy organization for better trade, that prioritizes workers and environmental sustainability. Originally known as Traidcraft Exchange, it split off from Traidcraft Plc to focus entirely on advocacy.

The "unseen stories" project is a 2023 project about textile homeworkers in Tirupur, Tamil Nadu, India. They were trained on photography and given nice cameras to document their own lives to raise awareness about homeworkers and their roles in the garment industry.

Okay, how did you find it?

Looking mainly for information about textile industry imports and fast fashion. I came from DuckDuckGo trying to find out where a lot of clothing manufacturing happens. This article from the BBC prompted me to research Bangladesh, which led me to this article, which then led me to the excellent but dense report on conditions post early COVID-19 and unfair practices from buyers, from Transform Trade. It's a bit too much to be the main topic of a post in this series, but here's a highlight of statistics that made me go "mmmm":

How's it doing on Internet Archive?

Kind of flabbergasted I got the first save, ngl! I'm not sure if this is because the stories were added recently or what, but happy to be a part of it.

What delighted you the most?

Okay, "delight" is a strong word-- this one was a thinky topic and no mistake. Regulars on my blog might know from the #math skirt tag that I'm making my first garment, and as a result, I'm thinking a lot of the clear and absolutely fucking absurd undervaluing of garment-making labour. Skimming that report netted me the knowledge that the minimum wage for textile-workers is $2.50 USD in Bangladesh. This is less than half of the urban living wage cited by this study, if you're wondering (and that's already hedging for a modest family).

The delightful part is how clearly the homeworkers are proud of what they do, and happy to be the ones with their hands on the camera. I liked that there was clearly enough freedom left to the individual artists to allow for pictures like this, literal time to smell the roses (from K. Selvrani):

Thanks for reading this far if you got here. I truly hope in my lifetime that textile-production and the way that garments are created, compensated, purchased, repaired and cherished undergoes major changes (fast fashion die challenge). I hope for the return of a certain amount of everyday savvy for basic repairs, and respect for the good work a local tailor can do for you. I hope every corner in the world can afford the time or is given the resources to have clothing that they cherish and can take care of. I have a lot of hopes, you see. <3

New introduction post for Tumblr <3 (I’ll try to not make it long. SIKE!)

Welcome to this disaster central :3

hiii people, I’m Aditi! (nickname: Addie) 18 year old Indian (tamil) girlie. Introvert and bookworm. Professional weirdo in her cringecore era. Will overanalyse anything and everything. I love making lists. Straight (eww) but not immune to pretty women. Forget I said that. This is my main account (I am losing track of how many fandoms I am in so pls bear with me)

Have been a eurovision fan since 2020. My brother’s more into jesc. Obsessed with melfest (especially older editions), mgp and sanremo mostly. Anything that’s even remotely Italian/Slovenian/French fascinates me. Major Italian indie fan. And then there’s joker out. They’re the reason I formed this account ❤️ can never have enough of them, can you? I’m also an absolute sucker for crime thrillers.

Other Artists 🎶: Alexander Rybak, Benjamin Ingrosso, Fulminacci, Ditonellapiaga, PTN, Rovere, Ghemon, Tananai, Fabio Rovazzi, Santi Francesi, Alvan, Itzy, Lindsey Stirling and I could go on but I won’t, for everyone’s sake.

Series/Shows 📺: NCIS, Supernatural, House MD, Sherlock BBC, The Big Bang theory, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Hazbin Hotel, Helluva Boss, all Glitch Prod. shows (TADC, MD, MR and SP), Lackadaisy, Panhandle and others which I probably don’t remember much of. Also indie animation in general.

My hellaverse side account : @nightowlstardust

A slight warning that I do vent quite a lot so you might see that.

Anyways, feel free to chat with me anytime (my chronically online ass ain’t going nowhere) i promise I’m friendly, even if i might not seem like that 😊

bye lol hope reading this didn’t give you a headache (also I accept no blame for any or cursed posts you might see, it’s not my fault my humour’s broken 😆)

Sri Lanka's new president Anura Kumara Dissanayake has been sworn into office, promising "clean" politics as the country recovers from its worst economic crisis.

The left-leaning Dissanayake has cast himself as a disruptor of the status quo, and analysts see his victory as a rejection of corruption and cronyism that has long plagued the country.

Saturday's election was the first since 2022, when discontent over the economy fuelled mass protests and chased former president Gotabaya Rajapaksa from power.

"We need to establish a new clean political culture," he said. "I commit to achieving this. We will do the utmost to win back the people’s respect and trust in the political system."

Who is Sri Lanka’s new president Anura Kumara Dissanayake?

In a political paradigm shift, Sri Lanka leans to the left

The 55-year-old, who is familiarly known as AKD, told Sri Lankans that "democracy doesn’t end with voting in a leader".

"We need to strengthen democracy. I pledge to do my utmost to safeguard democracy," he said.

"I have said before that I am not a magician – I am an ordinary citizen. There are things I know and don’t know. My aim is to gather those with the knowledge and skills to help lift this country."

Dissanayake received a Buddhist blessing at the end of his speech. Representatives of Sri Lanka's other main religions - Islam, Hinduism and Christianity - were also present during the oath-taking, highlighting the new president's emphasis on diversity.

In a statement on the eve of the ceremony, Dissanayake said the "unity of Sinhalese, Tamils, Muslims and all Sri Lankans is the bedrock of this new beginning".

During the campaign, Dissanayake promised voters good governance and tough anti-corruption measures.

He has promised to develop Sri Lanka's manufacturing, agriculture and IT sectors. He has also committed to continuing the deal struck with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to bail Sri Lanka out of the economic crisis while reducing the impact of its austerity measures on the country’s poorest.

Sri Lankan Prime Minister Dinesh Gunawardena resigned before Dissanayake was sworn in, paving the way for the dissolution of parliament.

In an earlier interview with BBC Sinhala, Dissanayake signalled that he would dissolve parliament soon after being elected.

"There is no point continuing with a parliament that is not in line with what the people want," he said at the time.

Dissanayake won after the counting stretched into a second round on Sunday, as no candidate was able to win more than 50% of the total votes in the first round.

Once the second and third-choice votes for president had been tallied, the Election Commission said Dissanayake had won with a total of 5,740,179 votes.

Opposition leader Sajith Premadasa came in second at 4,530,902. Outgoing President Ranil Wickremesinghe got 2,299,767 during the first round of counting and was excluded from the second round.

Wickremesinghe congratulated his successor, saying: "With much love and respect for this beloved nation, I hand over its future to the new president".

Until this weekend's vote, all of Sri Lanka's eight presidential elections since 1982 had seen the winner emerge during the first round of counting. This poll has been described as one of the closest in the country's history.

Dissanayake's anti-corruption platform resonated strongly with voters who have been clamouring for systemic change since the crisis.

This enabled him to overcome trepidation over the violent past of his political party, the Marxist Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP), which carried out two armed insurrections against the Sri Lankan state in the 1970s and 80s.

Dissanayake's alliance, the National People’s Power – of which the JVP is a part – rose to prominence during the 2022 protests, known as the Aragalaya – Sinhala for struggle.

Dissanayake has also sought to moderate the hard-left stance of his party in more recent years.

Last month, the US blocked a British Indian Overseas Territory (BIOT) court from entering the British territory of Diego Garcia—part of the Chagos Islands in the Indian Ocean, and prevented a group of Tamil migrants—stranded on the island since 2021, from presenting their case that they were being unlawfully detained. This has left the Tamils living in what amounts to a concentration camp, locked in a legal limbo and held in virtual incommunicado 1,000 miles away from the nearest landmass in India. Tessa Gregory, a lawyer at Leigh Day solicitors representing the asylum seekers, said, “That the British Indian Ocean Territory supreme court has been prevented from sitting in its own territory on Crown land is an extraordinary affront to the rule of law.” She appealed to the incoming Labour government foreign secretary to do everything he could “to ensure that the hearing goes ahead as soon as possible.” In 2021, 89 Tamils, including 16 children, who had fled torture and racist persecution in Sri Lanka, had been trying to reach Canada when their fishing boat ran into trouble. They were rescued by Royal Navy ships and brought to Diego Garcia, part of the British Indian Ocean territories, where they have remained ever since, trying to seek asylum in Britain. In 2022, four more boats carrying asylum seekers reached the island, some of whom were allowed to leave and succeeded in reaching the French territory of Reunion. The conditions in the camp are so dire that a number returned. Others were deported back to Sri Lanka. While some of the migrants were sent to Rwanda for medical treatment, they were later returned to Diego Garcia. It is believed that there are at least 60 asylum seekers still on the island, awaiting decisions on their claims or appeals of earlier rulings that are being processed in the UK. Their plight is compounded by the fact that access to Diego Garcia is restricted to those with connections to the military or BIOT’s administration. There are no commercial flights to the island and access for yachts is only for safe passage through the outer Chagos Islands. They live in rat-infested, communal tents and are confined to a small fenced-in area, no bigger than a football pitch, under the watchful eyes of G4S, a security firm who “are treating us like prisoners,” according to anonymous statements by two of the asylum seekers. The BBC says there have been “multiple suicide attempts” and “reports of sexual harassment and assaults.” Lawyers say that there have been hunger strikes, including by children. In November last year, the UN’s High Commission for Refugees visited the island, and wrote a damning report about the camp. It concluded that “conditions there amounted to arbitrary detention” and called for the Tamils’ “immediate relocation.” Even the British Foreign Office, which administers the BIOT from its office in London, admitted the conditions were not suitable. Britain’s control over the BIOT has been deemed illegal. Britain’s Labour government separated Diego Garcia and the 60-plus Chagos Islands from Mauritius in 1965 before it became independent in 1968 and subsequently incorporated the Islands into the specially created British Indian Ocean Territories. This violated the 1960 United Nations Resolution 1514 banning the breakup of colonies before independence. It forcibly expelled Diego Garcia’s 2,000 indigenous people—the Chagossians—who were exiled to slums in Mauritius and the Seychelles in the Indian Ocean and eventually the UK, where, denied support and compensation and subject to racial discrimination at the hands of officialdom, they have lived in impoverished conditions ever since. The British government has repeatedly rejected their demands to return their homeland.

#UNIT LEAD " I AM THE HEAD OF UNIT!" Rani's Kate L.ethbridge-Stewart. Canon Divergent. 25+ follows back from CarbonDated. Private and Extremely Anti R.TD **not affiliated with the BBC, b.ig finish or the UN.

. UNIT RPC SERVER Affiliated with: Starwent & Crazypaving | Triple1st | Whatspoilers UNIT FAM: Strtravels | Spacereflected | Chloevlinder | Earthdcfended | Inventrules & Drmacmillan | Isbrilliant | Wcrpbubble |

. GENERAL

first and foremost. I'm a hater. I just hate things.I hate d.octor who.sdhfjh no I'm kidding. While I have a lot of opinions about the show I wouldn't be here unless I didn't like this show. I love classic who. I love the eu. I love parts of modern who.If you can't handle my criticisms of the show I ask that you either refrain from following me, OR just ask me to tag hate for you.

Heavily plot driven. ( with great, amazing, stellar collaborators) I'm trying to build a UNIT and portrayal of Kate that I feel more aligns to her motto of 'science leads'. I want to build stories here, with verses spanning multiple arcs the way the show would.

please do not let the above intimidate you.I am always looking for new friends to write with. And if multi-para story like threads are not your thing we can just do smaller more sporadic threads instead.

act will vary here. I work 4-5 days atm and when i'm not doing that I'm volunteering.

Kate's backstory is under co. I do not acknowledge certain aspects of d.owntime ( vid and novelisation ) for entirely personal reasons.

. SHIPS AND VERSES.

I am multi-verse, multi-ship. for now. This is always subject to change, I really like the idea of single verse but I find it difficult to execute bc I like writing with everyone so much lmao.

OC friendly. oh I love oc's sm. make ocs please. Only oc's I'll hesitate to write with are child ocs. The only exception to this rule is Brandy's Moira. <3

You have to be 21+ to ship. and 18+ to follow. Kate is bi.

I will not ship her with anyone directly under her on the chain of command. You all know what i'm talking about.

In fact the only time I can see a relationship panning out with anyone at U.NIT is IF they are someone at the top of their dept. bc it's much more a case of just "colleagues" then a weird power imbalance. Please note, even then it will take work. She will be very hesitant to act on any feelings she may or may not have.

. MISC.

Kate is the head of a secret fictional alien investigation taskforce funded by the UN. ofc there's gonna be very obvious political overtones present. Again, if you can't handle that, this isn't the blog for you. I'm a community organiser outside of this. it's kind of everything I am I'm not gonna tone it down for you. <3

Do not follow me if you are a Z.ionist or some other type of idiot. idk. you fill in the blanks.

CLOSED STARTER for @pclymcrphcus ft. Lilette location ; good duck art gallery

Ezhil figured his best work was the simple fact that he’d been able to drag so many people to this place, from all different walks of life. Simply with the promise of art and good music. It warmed his heart, because while the Good Duck Art Gallery had plenty of visitors the year round, it was usually either: kids, (art)students, or grandparents. And usually brought along by some adult or tour guide. The grandparents came for the coffee in the kanteen of course, and because they liked to do something with their day off, the kids and students had no choice in the matter and were dragged to that place. The rich investors that Ezhil seemed to bring in were always eager to visit when there was nobody else around. 

Now the place was filled with not just students, kids, and grandparents, but every age group, occupation, etc. Everyone was here. He smiled as he walked around, welcoming people, talking about the art work, and then moving on to the next one. He walked around Lilette as he spotted her, until he was right in front of them. “Miss Vaz, I haven’t seen you around for a while now,” he spoke. His speech was tainted by an accent, but he refrained from using any Tamil slang, as if he’d watched too much British television growing up - not BBC being on 24/7 at his place now.

#CARBONDATED " I'M AN ARCHAEOLOGIST, I DUG YOU UP!" Rani's Prof. River Song. Post Library and Canon divergent. est Jan 2013. affiliates & mains under co.

*not affiliated with Doctor Who, the BBC or Big finish.

PORTRAYAL- I am canon compliant with the show and EU respectively, except for the episode, 'name of the doctor'. Please note, this account has existed in one form or another since early 2013, as such my River has developed past canon. My main verse will be post-library. Thandiwe Newton is the default faceclaim for that verse, however I will still write River's third and canon regeneration in addition to Mels Zucker. ACTIVITY - I work full time and when I'm not doing that, I'm a community organiser so my activity here will be sparse and inconsistent. If you can handle that then we'll get along great. .

FORMATTING - I use minimal formatting with small text and 50x85 icons. If you need me to make any adjustments for accessibility sake, please let me know.

CONTENT - Typically I write multi-para but I'm fine with chat style rp as well. I love love love! adventure/mystery/sci-fi driven threads. I'm looking for long ongoing threads overall though.

CURRENT INSPO: MUSIC :Signed, sealed, delivered. Everlasting Love. Go your Own way. The loneliest time, I've been to the moon. LIT: Antony & Cleopatra , Death At Daylesford, Partners in Crime. Ode on a Grecian Urn. Endymion ART: Lady of Shallot, La Belle Dame Sans Merci, Garden of Earthly Delights. Madame X, Judith Beheading Holofernes, The Raft of the Medusa, The Sleeping Beauty MEDIA: How to steal a Million, High Society, Firefly, Timeline, Carmen Jones, The Mummy.The Crypt of Tears. VERSES - I don't typically write AU scenarios with the exception of canon alternate universes eg: Kala's Guard Universe. So far this has worked for me. If I do write a thread with a character from a fandom where time travel or aliens etc doesn't exist, then I will just play it by ear. Each verses that I do write follows several arcs, the same way the show would.

SHIPPING - River is bisexual and poly in canon. I love shipping. I'm open to it. However, I'm not a big fan of a lot of Doctor/River ships in canon. ( mainly River/10 and Releven ) That doesn't mean we can't plot something out if you do write the Doctor. Everything else is open for discussion.

FOLLOWING - Due to certain themes, I really don't feel comfortable interacting with anyone under the age of 18. I apologise if this offends anyone.

TRIGGERS: Just ask me if you need something tagged, I honestly cannot remember a hundred different things for a hundred different blogs, even if you have it in your rules it's simply impossible to do. THEMES- Please be aware that this account WILL explore some dark themes such as murder and other high crimes. However, there are definitely things that I draw the line at. I WILL NOT be interacting with anyone who chooses to write the following themes, P*edophilia, r*pe, transphobia, racism, etc. lastly, but certainly not least, if you are a Zionist don't follow me don't and don't try to interact with me in any way. this includes anyone that KNOWINGLY continues to interact with people that have OUTWARDLY stated they are Zionists.
