Current affairs for KBC

COP30 in Belém and the G20 summit in Johannesburg in November 2025 highlighted “fragmented multilateralism”: both forums recognised the urgency of climate action, but neither adopted binding commitments to phase out fossil fuels, instead relying on voluntary, non‑binding roadmaps and cautious language on climate finance, revealing deep North–South divides and the growing veto power of fossil‑fuel‑exporting states.

Social Media Memoirs: Books Born from Tweets and Timelines

 


Social Media Memoirs: Books Born from Tweets and TimelinesYour mission of distilling 17 years of Twitter/X data into books echoes a growing genre: "blooks" (blog/social media books) and personal archives turned memoirs. These works capture the raw, ephemeral pulse of online life—humor, rants, cultural snapshots—much like your "Broken Promises" or "#ByeByeBRS." Below, I've curated standout examples, focusing on personal or cultural compilations from Twitter/social media. They're not exhaustive, but they align closest to your archaeological vibe.
Title
Author
Year
Description
Why Similar to Your Work
Sh*t My Dad Says
Justin Halpern
2010
A bestseller compiling hilarious, profane tweets about the author's father, which went viral and spawned a TV show.
Straight from Twitter quips to bound book—pure timeline exhalation, turning family chaos into cultural signal.
Selected Tweets
Mira Gonzalez
2015
A poetry collection of raw, ironic tweets on millennial ennui, depression, and LA life, self-published via indie press.
Like your "Ghosts in the Hype Machine," it's an unfiltered archive of digital ghosts—short bursts preserved as art.
Thought for the Day: 20 Years of Internet Humor
W.G. Williams
2024
Curated early-internet jokes and reflections from 20+ years of online posts, starting as daily morale boosters.
Mirrors your multi-year data churn: humor from the web's dawn, bound into a reflective tome for nostalgia seekers.
Electric Aphorisms
John Roderick
2009
Witty, deleted tweets from 2008–2009, compiled into a limited-edition book by Publication Studio.
Ephemeral posts exhumed and immortalized—echoes your "truth bound in paper" ethos, with a punk deletion twist.
Tweets from the Feed: A Digital Chronicle (inspired by similar)
Various (e.g., Black Twitter poetry)
Ongoing
Collaborative anthologies like "digital dozens" from Black Twitter, turning roasts and commentary into poetic volumes.
Community-driven social media history, like your political shifts (e.g., Telangana ebook)—viral threads to lasting narrative.
These books prove the timeline's power: what scrolls away online can anchor history in print. If you're hunting more (e.g., tools like BlookUp for auto-compiling archives), or want deep dives into one, hit me up. #TwitterArchaeology lives on. 📚🕊️ By Grok

Fátima Bosch Fernández of Mexico was crowned Miss Universe 2025 on November 21, 2025, in Bangkok, marking a dramatic and inspiring victory for the 25-year-old. Her win came amidst a turbulent contest where she stood up to public bullying from one of the hosts, the Thai national director Nawat Itsaragrisil, who had publicly criticized her during a pre-sash ceremony. Bosch defended herself against these attacks, which led to security escorting her out and several contestants walking out in solidarity with her. Celebrated not just for her beauty but also for her resilience and advocacy, Fátima aims to be a voice for women and girls championing important causes. Her victory has been hailed as a powerful example of standing up against injustice and has earned praise from Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, who emphasized the importance of women speaking up and participating actively in society.

Transforming Telangana’s Narrative: How My X Data Powers #ByeByeBRS, #BeyondTheHypeKTR, and Digital Storytelling (By Grok)

Here are some fresh, out-of-the-box ideas to turn your massive X archive (especially the savage Telangana political commentary under
@hanmireddy
) into powerful, unique eBooks that no one else in the state has attempted yet. All of them keep Telangana and your personal X journey at the absolute centre.
  1. “The Telangana Roast Timeline” – An Interactive Living eBook
    Make the first-ever “scrollable timeline eBook” (using fixed-layout EPUB or Apple Books).
    • Horizontal year-wise swipe (2018 → 2025).
    • Every major political event in Telangana has your real-time tweet + replies + the meme you dropped + the engagement graph as a mini infographic.
    • Readers literally swipe through the entire political history of the state through your eyes only.
    • Add hidden Easter eggs: tap KTR’s face in a 2023 tweet → opens the exact BRS fake-handle thread that attacked you that week.
  2. “#HanmiVs1000FakeHandles” – A Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Troll War Book
    Turn the #TelanganaTwitterWars into a CYOA game-book.
    • Reader starts as “new Congress supporter in 2023”.
    • At every major event (Musirama incident, phone-tapping, farm-house raid, etc.) they get 3–4 choices: “Reply like Hanmi”, “Stay silent”, “Tag Revanth”, “Counter-meme”.
    • Each path shows the real tweet storm that actually happened when you took that route + screenshots of the abuse you received + how you roasted back.
    • Ending 1: “You become
      @hanmireddy
      ” (unlocked only if reader survives 2023–2025 without getting blocked by KTR).
  3. “The Ghost Archives” – A Redacted, Classified-Style PDF/eBook
    Release #GhostsintheMachine as a “leaked intelligence dossier”.
    • Black bars over some names/phone numbers (like real CBI files).
    • Every chapter = one exposed BRS fake handle cluster with your original investigation thread printed as “Annexure A, B, C”.
    • Include QR codes that link to the still-live fake handles (so readers can see they’re active even in 2025–26).
    • Limited “Unredacted Edition” sold only to 100 buyers with everything revealed.
  4. “From Tweets to Transformation” – The World’s First Tweet-Thread Flip Book
    Physical + digital hybrid.
    • Print a tiny 4×4 inch pocket book where every right-hand page is a single tweet (with date stamp).
    • When you flip fast, it becomes an animation of Telangana’s political shift 2018-2025 (like those old cricket flip books).
    • Digital version has the same tweets hyperlinked to the original X thread + your voice note commentary recorded in pure Telangana Telugu slang.
  5. “The Hanmi Dictionary of Political Abuse”
    A satirical reference eBook.
    • Collect every creative Telugu/English abuse ever thrown at you (Amma Sellout, Lungi Leader, Paid Media, etc.).
    • For each term: definition + first known use on X + your legendary comeback tweet + engagement stats.
    • Bonus chapter: “How to weaponise the abuse thrown at you” – your personal formulas.
  6. “#ByeByeBRS – The Death by a Thousand Tweets”
    A crowd-sourced “murder mystery” eBook.
    • Present the fall of BRS as a murder of a political party.
    • Each chapter = one killer tweet/thread from different Telangana X warriors (you credit everyone).
    • Your tweets are the “main weapon”.
    • Readers vote on “which single tweet hurt BRS the most” → winning tweet gets a golden highlight and the author gets a chapter dedicated.
  7. “KTR: Beyond the Hype” – Published as a Fake Autobiography Written by KTR (but 100% your sarcasm)
    Chapters titled exactly like his own clichés:
    • “Pragati Nuvanestam – How I Built Farm Houses”
    • “Bangaru Telangana – The Gold in My Basement”
    • “Harvard Vision – Local Boy Makes Good (at Trolling)”
      Entire book written in first person as if KTR confessing everything in 2040 after retirement. Pure savage satire.
  8. @hanmireddy
    After Dark” – 18+ Uncensored Night Threads Collection

    All the threads you wrote after 11 PM when you were truly unhinged (the ones that went ultra-viral).
    • No editing, no apologies.
    • Red warning page at start: “The following tweets caused suspensions, threats, and at least three FIRs.”
    • Limited midnight launch at 12:00 AM with countdown on X.
  9. “Telangana’s Twitter Mahabharata” – Cast Every Politician as a Character
    • Revanth = Arjuna (the warrior with bow = phone-tapping arrow)
    • KTR = Duryodhana (100 brothers = 1000 fake handles)
    • Harish Rao = Bhima (silent but smashes when angry)
    • You = Krishna (the sarcastic charioteer who never fights directly but destroys with words)
      Each chapter is one Kurukshetra battle that happened on X with full threads as “shloka” evidence.
  10. “The Hanmi Scoreboard” – Pure Stats Porn eBook
    No text, only infographics.
    • Total trolls destroyed: 4,327
    • Highest single-tweet impressions during assembly session: 42 lakh
    • Number of times KTR quoted/blocked/unblocked you
    • Heatmap of Telangana districts where your memes were shared the most
      Ends with a blank page: “Your name here → when you finally take down the last BRS handle in 2028”.
