    Both sets of my grandparents had to leave their homes, that fell on the Pakistan side of the border, during Partition. Only my nani is around now. It's why this story is so close to my heart. I spoke to on her heart-wrenching book for

    Having a drink by myself, watching TV and just livin' my best/ideal life on this Sat night. Whoever warns you about the pitfalls of living alone, don't listen to them 'cause well... there are literally NONE. Can't believe how many years it took me to finally do this.

    This time last year, the internet saw India's "worst tragedy since the Partition" unfold as the second wave of Covid peaked. A tragedy that changed how we perceive and consume the internet now, often without realising it. ✍🏼 Wrote about it:

    Someone please tell Sh*v Aroor that no one is interested in reading his terrible takes on anything, least of all on fruits. Yuck.

    I miss dressing up for work, actually seeing my co-workers, and the idea of conversations that is not prefaced with "Hey, do you have a minute?" So done, ugh.

    I start a new job in June and god I can't wait to head back to an actual office. As someone who started working from home way before Covid hit, I've been at my wits' end trying to keep the motivation up, and pretending that my mental health isn't affected by working in isolation

    As a north Indian kid growing up in Bombay, I always grew up with the impression (trickled down from my parents) that Tamilians were educated and progressive... realising only when I was in college how the deep the caste hegemony actually runs.

    While most, if not all, Indian states are inherently casteist, the systemic ways in which it continues to fester in TN shocks me.

    Children from dalit communities made to sit on the floor and have food outside while others have food inside a temple in Manachanallur Town, Tiruchirappalli district, Tamilnadu. Where is to teach those brahmins about constitution?

    How many votes did Brinda Karat and her party get in Delhi? Did that stop her from standing in front of the bulldozer and raising her voice? That’s the difference between treating political activism as a career choice and championing it as a social movement.

    वोट देते वक़्त तो कांग्रेस की याद नहीं आती ! अब क्यों ?

    India is highly vulnerable to climate change. Here's how some newspaper frontpages* covered the IPCC report on how to tackle the crisis 🧵... (*yes there's a LOT going on in S. Asia and reporters who filed great stories don't make these choices)

    Still thinking about the random man at Bandstand who interrupted my otherwise peaceful walk to tell me I have a very "athletic structure" 🤮 🤮 and attempted to make small talk. And had the audacity to ask me where I'm going when I picked up the pace and said I'm not interested

    Grotesquely funny that a movie series that by all historical precedent should have foisted a phalanx of child star monsters onto the world produced the most normal and adjusted ones of all time, meanwhile the maker of said material has gone insane.

    Daniel Radcliffe on the Will Smith and Chris Rock incident: “I’m just so already dramatically bored of hearing people’s opinions about it that I just don’t want to be another opinion adding to it.” ()

    Period leaves are crucial, but while we're at it can we acknowledge the absolute monster that pms is? I want nothing more than to lie in bed, read, occasionally cry, and eat cake.
