From CJI’s comment to CJI’s court, full-circle moment for Cockroach Janta Party: ‘Will hear in due course’

Published by Parlour News

A word spoken in a courtroom barely 10 days ago has now returned to the same court as the nub of two petitions. A lot has happened in between, with “cockroach” now becoming the motif of an online movement, taking its name from a comment by the Chief Justice of India. The Instagram-focused social movement Cockroach Janta Party, founded by Abhijeet Dipke (inset) got its name from CJI Surya Kant’s remarks made on a plea by a lawyer seeking Senior Advocate status. (Photos: Insta/PTI File) On Monday, when advocate NK Goswami mentioned his plea against the Cockroach Janta Party before CJI Surya Kant’s bench, and said the satirical movement was tarnishing the image of judiciary, the CJI reportedly remarked, “Don’t take it so sentimentally.” Another petition was filed by advocate Raja Choudhary, who mainly sought a probe into alleged fake lawyers, but also sought action against alleged “commercial exploitation and monetised circulation” of oral courtroom observations, news agency PTI reported. Choudhary said a probe should be carried out by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). …

Vampire Survivors comes full-circle with Castlevania DLC expansion

Published by Webster

The world of Dracula and the Belmont family is coming to Vampire Survivors. The newly announced downloadable content for the auto-shooter survival game, Ode to Castlevania, promises a bunch of new stuff: 20 characters, 40 weapons, an extra-large stage, and over 30 music tracks. Developer Poncle said in its announcement post on X that the $3.99 expansion should contain more than 10 hours worth of gameplay — though it’s not clear if there will actually be any vampires in the game (I’m still betting there won’t be). The new Vampire Survivors DLC is set to launch on October 31st on the PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, PlayStation, Android, and iOS. You can also track its release with a cheesy, ‘90s-era countdown timer site set up by the developer. (Mind your speaker volume before visiting, as it auto-plays a short loop of some of the sick new music.) That’s a lot of Belmonts and friends.Image: Poncle Vampire Survivors first came out in 2021 with Castlevania-inspired sprite art the developer purchased from an asset pack, but now the …
