I have made the worst investment into a sci-fi series I am reading. Finished three body problem and now reading the dark forest Cixin liu is making me hate a not so bad story. The women characters are so so badly written !!! These books were hailed as masterpiece? Why ?? #books #scifi

Europe is burning. Floods in Japan. Earthquakes in Indonesia and Colombia. And Hawaii to get its first hurricane in 150 years. Mother Nature is PISSED. And it’s all our own fault. We really are the most stupid of species.

RIP English writer Virginia Woolf, died this day 1941. “No need to hurry. No need to sparkle. No need to be anybody but oneself.” “The eyes of others our prisons; their thoughts our cages.”

I am performing next week in pune at the box hub, Erandwane ! #pune people please come to this solo festival. You have a treat of 18 solo plays from 24 to 27 !

Everything happens around me all at once. Prioritisation was an easy exercise to do when you could cut down options simply on the basis of them not being accessible to you. Now, everything is easily accessible and missing out on an interesting event makes me sad. On the other hand...

This creates a unique opportunity to cultivate an aware mind. Your choices come with consequences and you make the choices with this consciousness :) Perhaps practicing Buddhist teachings is actually easy in today's age :)

It’s been a while since I posted any non-work stuff so here are a few recent crochet projects. All are from “Animal friends of Picapau2” by Yan Schenkel.

This Diwali tradition is very unique to maharashtra. Every year there are numerous Diwali special magazines coming out. Some are printing since the last 75-80 years and are a must read every diwali. Some are new, 10-5 year old publications trying out new experiments.

The variety of writings found in these Diwali special magazines is honestly breathtaking. Every magazine curates with a unique style. The images on the front page are my favourite thing about these magazines. When I began buying Deepavali, it was for the front page image that was always unique.

One gets to read very fresh, new contemporary articles and stories and poems. Anuwaad has translated literature from all over the world. This year they have included african stories. I'm very excited to read those.

It feels like an insult to the notion of objective reality to invoke “experts” to weigh in on a numerical fact you can verify with a pocket calculator

I am very tired of changing phones every 3 years None of my phones last longer. I Tried pixel once and the battery just gave up on that one. Since then I don't really trust buying high end phones Just need a device for calling Don't care about data there And why do I need it for work profiles :(

66: smartphones are improving so incrementally now that you might be better off just getting your battery replaced instead of buying a new one that has some AI bullshit crammed into it

55: most of the ways other people choose to live can never hurt you, and you should celebrate those ways. the infinite variety of humanity is wonderful, in the sense that it inspires wonder.

A science fiction story awaited...

What it basically comes down to to me is: Social media is a form of low trust communication in the sense that people are likely to mistrust institutional narratives and more likely to trust ideas coming from strong ties—people in their immediate network.
