3 episodes in, *Constellation* on Apple TV is an engrossing watch, though the repeated “Mamma!”, “Mamma!”, “Mamma!” is really beginning to grate the nerves. That said it is so unsettling at least the first 3 episodes.
In 2021 I blogged this at start of Biden presidency:
>But more than anything else, its watching America erode in every way in the last 1 year, so quickly, so dramatically has been the most shocking part of it for me and something that is going to stay forever. I have never felt this hopeless about this country, and I dont think a Biden presidency or a democratic presidency is actually going to matter anymore. I think America has passed point of no return at this point, and the only thing left to see is how fast or slow the eventual decay happens. So yeah I am scared for my country and the country my kid is growing up. It was also that year when we wished citizenships came with 1 year return warranty.
Three years later I don’t feel any more different than I did. Purely out of self preservation mode, I will say this to all the green-card holders in this country, do NOT become a citizen of USA unless the country you came from is even more fucked, or your country offers dual citizenship. Things are about to get far worse here and its not on people of color, women (some) or immigrants to keep saving this country and pulling it away from brink of disaster. Heck I wish I had my green card and Indian citizenship so I had the security and the advantage of both countries right now.
There is absolutely no denying here that people like Trump are just incredibly gifted. I mean Jesus Christ the entire system wants to work for you to clear the path. They just want him back don’t they? Tell me how many people you know that things just fall into place like it does for him?
Michigan results are slightly underwhelming for Trump no, more than Biden. I think Biden did pretty well and if that uncommitted number is holding to around 12-13% its not bad. I look at it as more of an opportunity for Biden campaign to win those voters back (and there is no reason to think he wont be able to convert some of those voters back!) but it feels like Trump has a tougher job ahead in Michigan than what it looks like and him winning over the entirety of that protest vote is still not going to help him much (which is doubtful anyway).
Of course I am very excited about NYTimes hot take on why all of this is such a disaster for Biden.
Oh no, on more day in February this year!

I honestly cannot remember passwords anymore. And none of the password managers do a great job of keeping passwords in sync or remember them correctly. We need to move to a passwordless future soon!

Why is this illegal? When you can have a former president who’s been charged and asked to pay 450million dollars for scamming the government and he gets to campaign nonstop as a presidential candidate what is 1.76million compared against it?
hahahaha! I grew up reading these kind of news constantly in India and I am always like what morons set themselves on fire expecting the govt to do something. When did this shit transport to USA?
