Does A. R. Rahman even hear what he is composing these days? I tried to listen through Thug Life soundtrack, dubbed as “A R Rahman Musical” and my fucking lord what an absolute torture. Sugar Baby could’ve been interesting, but the rest of the OST is outright steaming pile of hot crap. How in the world the same Mani-Rahman combination that gave us Roja, Bombay, Dil Se, Alaipayuthey fall from such peak to give us this hore-shit?

My neighbors are not thrilled that I am about to plant green giants all across our borders – they grow quickly and within a couple of years we should have full privacy from them. I mean every time they talk to us the wife has reminded us how the original owners of the house wanted the side yard to be beautiful so *they* got a good view out of their house cos they house faces angled to our side yard. Well now you shall see a green wall
The new season of long way home just doesn’t have the magic imo. I think the fun of the series was in unexplored places and honestly Europe is so over explored it feels fairly boring. It’s still fun but there is no comparison to their earlier long way series. I suppose age is definitely a factor for them too.
Was ferrying kids from birthday party yesterday.
Teen 1: “chachu, can you play radar by playboy carti”
Teen 2: “no! The song has explicit lyrics and bad words – it’s not right for you chachu!”
At that age now kids are telling me not to hear a song coz it has explicit lyrics
Sinners (2025) – ★★★☆☆

If someone told me the alternate title of this movie was The Last of Us:The movie I would have believed it.
Last night met some obnoxious desis as a get together. And we met some young just out of college kids also (desis) who had absolutely no clue what Trump was doing. I think he faked that he knew Trump was president. Just last week a desi colleague of mine asked “have you heard of project 2025”. No dude, I was the one fucking living under the rock, not you.
Yeah it glosses over many things but one episode to go the Bin Laden Manhunt documentary on Netflix is very enthralling watch. The sad reality of this is that in another 70 years I won’t be surprised if half the country actually thinks he was a big hero like half of Americans now think Nazis were good.
You can laugh all you like and you can say not gonna happen but I can guarantee you that United States won’t remain united. This country has to split up in smaller countries – there is no fucking way this country continues to survive as one. Multiple countries is the only solution. The United part of states is done – it’s only how bloddy or not this separation will be. I sincerely hope west coast and northeast states lead the way.
My recommendation is that NOBODY, absolutely NOBODY should even consider immigrating to USA right now either for jobs or higher studies until indefinite time, or at the very least till 2028. The damage this country is doing to itself is just irreparable. In fact i will say this, if you are of means and getting into college in next couple of years, consider alternatives outside! (includes my kid too).
