The movement toward liberty has roots in two eras, neither of which saw much liberty. One lineage comes from the Enlightenment while the other emanates from ancient philosophers.Original article: https://mises.org/mises-wire/two-lineages-liberty

Defying the dire predictions that attended its birth as an independent nation-state in 1947, the Indian republic is more than seventy-five years old. And yet, it is a place where criticisms of actually existing democracy are intense and strident. In recent years, the trope of victimized people suffering at the hands of a predatory elite and political dysfunction has reaped rewards. The populist language of redemptive outsiders pledging to combat a corrupt system has been harnessed in successful electoral campaigns, like the majoritarian regime of Narendra Modi. Tracking the shift from postcolonial nation-building to democracy-rebuilding, Srirupa Roy shows how the political outsider came to be a valorized figure of late-twentieth century Indian democracy, tasked with the urgent mission of curing a broken democratic system—what Roy terms "curative democracy." Drawing attention to an ambivalent political field that folds together authoritarian and democratic forms and ideas, The Political Outsider: Indian Democracy and the Lineages of Populism (Stanford University Press, 2024) argues that the long 1970s were a crucial turning point in Indian politics, when democracy was suspended by the declaration of a national emergency and then subsequently restored. By tracing the crooked line that connects the ideals of curative democracy and the political outsider to the populist antipolitics and strongman authoritarian rule in present times, this book revisits democracy from India, and asks what the Indian experience tells us about the trajectory of global democratic politics. Dhiren Swain is a MIPA PhD Candidate, affiliated to The University of Melbourne and IIT Madras. His current research focuses on the Urban Policies and Community Politics in India and South Asia.

Welcome to #RPGaDAY2026! #RPGaDAY2026 starts on August 1st and many folks will be posting for it one day at a time through the month, while many others share responses in ways that take some preparation time. Please take some time and help spread the news on your social media What is RPGaDAY? Now moving into 13th year, RPGaDAY was launched by David F. Chapman who may be known to you from his work for Cubicle 7 on the long-lived Doctor Who RPG with its innovative Vortex system. Each day this month, roleplaying enthusiasts, industrialists and gamers work from the prompt list below to take inspiration from each of the 31 prompts to post positively in affirmation of the joys and benefits of RPGs and the relationships and skills we have developed as a result. Check out https://castingshadowsblog.com/ AUTOCRATIK and on Facebook: RPG a Day | Facebook Grit the RPG! https://gnomebot-studios.itch.io/grit-fantasy-rpg GRIT Fantasy RPG A downloadable game $9.99 USD or more GRIT Fantasy RPG is a rules-light system that is perfect for one-shots, short campaigns, and convention games. The core rules are simple and easy to manage so that you can spend your time playing without the need for constant rules-checking. GRIT can be learned in a matter of minutes and is great for players of any level of experience; kids will love playing it too! If you're looking for a solid, streamlined tabletop roleplaying game GRIT Fantasy RPG is for you! Core Rules A single D12 is used as the primary die. There are Static and Opposed rolls. A Static roll must exceed one of four target numbers. An Opposed roll must exceed the roll of the adversary. Characters have five stats called Aspects. Each time the primary die is rolled an Aspect value is added to it. Each player has three Focus Dice that are used to boost rolls. Focus Dice are discarded from the game after use. Combat follows a fluid turn order where the players and GM decide together who should act as each round progresses. Each combatant gets to take one action or reaction per round. Damage is calculated by determining the difference between a roll and a target number (Static) or the opponents roll (Opposed). Armor and shields simply reduce incoming damage. There are three distances in the game: melee, short, and long. Character Creation There are twelve Lineages to choose from, each has a special ability. Aspects are configured by point allocation. Each character gets one unique item and 4 basic gear items. The maximum number of items a character can have is 10. Characters have 10 GRIT (hit points). Optional tables are provided to roll for character features and quirks. Create a character in just a few minutes with the quick-build option. Notable Details In lieu of spells there are magic items called artifacts that have special abilities and powers. All of these items have streamlined mechanics. Characters advance by simply acquiring items as they adventure. The GM section has tools to quickly generate story concepts, encounters, NPC's, and even custom monsters. Prepping is very easy! There are 52 fully illustrated monsters with complete descriptions. The book contains 400 loot items, organized into twenty D20 tables.

Kriya Yoga teacher Donelle Mason from New Zealand joins Ryan Kurczak for a thoughtful conversation on insight, Self-realization, lineage, Sanskrit, renunciation, ritual, and spiritual maturity. This episode explores the difference between genuine spiritual insight and mental understanding, the gradual or sudden recognition of Purusha, and how to understand the many branches and variations of Kriya Yoga after Lahiri Mahasaya. Ryan also discusses Sanskrit study, householder life, renunciate ideals, tapas, brahmacharya, desirelessness, kaivalya, and the role of ritual in yogic practice. The conversation concludes with reflections on what Ryan wishes he had known at the beginning of the path and how students may deepen from recognizing the Self to seeing the Self in all beings, as taught in the Bhagavad Gita. For students of Kriya Yoga, meditation, Yoga philosophy, the Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, Self-realization, and sincere spiritual practice. -
In honor of Juneteenth, we are diving deep into the profound world of genetic genealogy. For many people of African descent, traditional paper-trail research hits a roadblock known as the "1870 wall." In this episode, we explore how groundbreaking DNA testing is tearing down that wall and providing a reliable space for people to reclaim their roots and family histories. We are joined by two incredible industry pioneers: Adrienne Abiodun, an advanced researcher at Legacy Tree Genealogists, and Dr. Gina Paige, the co-founder of African Ancestry, Inc. Together, they break down the science, the emotional weight, and the life-changing impact of finding out exactly where you come from.
