I had to do a few small updates to the code snippet to account for pushing a post via mobile app rather than the webapp. For now it seems like the changes actually do work. Of course to double verify I am going to Lorem Ipsum again:

Lorem ipsum odor amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Imperdiet arcu aliquet sit conubia quam est velit dictum non primis pharetra vivamus pulvinar enim libero vitae morbi egestas sollicitudin ultrices platea habitant aptent natoque accumsan congue justo facilisi pellentesque vivamus quam orci facilisis morbi hac posuere tortor finibus per nisi ipsum pretium parturient mattis parturient ridiculus tortor eleifend orci tristique habitant tristique varius dui nascetur dictumst mus porta vulputate bibendum etiam iaculis sodales parturient nulla feugiat massa efficitur rhoncus ad ligula senectus est commodo eu ante vehicula sed accumsan condimentum integer vestibulum interdum hendrerit mattis ullamcorper per ligula erat bibendum ex ut dis sollicitudin fermentum vitae cursus primis litora cursus maecenas suscipit integer semper primis platea leo ante

On the other hand, if this post actually gets a link back, that means my code to exclude micro posts also works. Currently i have it set for 280 characters. Rest of the post is all lorem ipsum, but it should have a link back: Lorem ipsum odor amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Imperdiet arcu aliquet sit conubia quam est velit dictum non primis pharetra vivamus pulvinar enim libero vitae morbi egestas sollicitudin ultrices platea habitant aptent natoque accumsan congue justo facilisi pellentesque vivamus quam orci facilisis morbi hac posuere tortor finibus per nisi ipsum pretium parturient mattis parturient ridiculus tortor eleifend orci tristique habitant tristique varius dui nascetur dictumst mus porta vulputate bibendum etiam iaculis sodales parturient nulla feugiat massa efficitur rhoncus ad ligula senectus est commodo eu ante vehicula sed accumsan condimentum integer vestibulum interdum hendrerit mattis ullamcorper per ligula erat bibendum ex ut dis sollicitudin fermentum vitae cursus primis litora cursus maecenas suscipit integer semper primis platea leo ante.

If I could give this show 6 stars I would. Absolutely riveting from episode 1 through 8. Season 2 of Paatal Lok has to rank amongst one of the very best Indian tv has produced.

🍿 The Martian (2015) – ★★★☆☆

This movie does not age well. The second half of this movie is so over the top. Donald Grover overacts his way through, and the final third act of this movie just feels out of place with the first half which is exhilaratingly good.

🍿 Conclave (2024) – ★★★★★

Goddamn who knew election of a pope could be this enthralling to watch. This was edge of the seat!

🍿 Premalu (2024) – ★★★★☆

Malayalam film industry is operating on a completely different level than rest of the Indian film industry. How do you take a such a cliche story and turn it into something endearing and joyful to watch? There is literally nothing original in this movie and yet it works completely because of its stellar star-cast, acting and writing.

🍿 Gladiator II (2024) – ★☆☆☆☆

Arrrrghhh!! I actually rented this complete piece of crap and paid premium $ to rent it. I guess at least I didn’t see it in theater and regret more. What a hopeless sequel to one of my favorite movies form youth. Yuck!

Logging for posterity that I rewatched it again in 2024. I love movies that play heavily on nostalgia – not everyone’s cup of tea but surely mine.
