Just a reminder a 5-year-old boy in a bunny hat spent more time in jail than any billionaire pedophile on Epstein’s client list.

This week's comic: The Big Dumb War Cycle

#war #foreignpolicy #uspol #cartoon

Very good read on Arijit and the state of Hindi film music. On the highlighted part, though, I have a counterpoint: S. P. Balasubrahmanyam, as a singer (and Ilayaraja, as a composer). Can easily fill many many days, many more moods, life stages, etc.

Nostalgia is different for all of us.

I feel nostalgic for the Transformers cartoons and Marvel comics so I watch Bayverse & MCU movies today.

Elon feels nostalgia for the racist apartheid of his childhood in South Africa so he’s bringing it to America.

It’s so unsettling watching our 250 year-old democracy decay into dictatorship while the most disruptive technology since steam power is evolving at superhuman speed. It’s like watching a locomotive barrel headlong into a tornado. I have a bad feeling about this.

Amazing video about Sugen Gopal, Malaysian Indian chef and restaurant owner whose Roti King in London has been a huge success. He has a great cookbook too.

You may be looking at this food and wondering ‘why is it so different from the vegetarian South Indian foods I usually get’ and that’s because Malaysian Tamils tended to have come from lower caste communities, who have different foods. His success is a huge beacon of hope for many, especially those who haven’t seen this type of Tamil food represented.

It’s my favorite kind of South Indian food, anyway.

Buy his book.

The fricking NRA is now the voice of reason. That’s how far off the deep end the U.S. government and conservative enablers of Trump have gone.
He’s saying an arrest warrant by a judge and an “administrative warrant” by an immigration official are the same. That's like saying the hall monitor instead of the principal can expel you from school.
