*Succession* proved to HBO that they can still make a prestige TV without grotesque nudity and soft porn, if they want to. Maybe perhaps they need less Sam Levinson and more Jesse Armstrong.

Man can Dhoni just unnretire and come back to captain Indian team in ODI and test cricket?
Dear mother of two holy cows why the fuck are you putting ketchup on your funnel cake?! 🤯
Succession couldn’t have ended any other way but this. That was perfect.
This morning my dad & I argued about how old I was when we stayed in Pune. He kept insisting I was in 5th or 6th grade at best and I was like, no, I was in 7th and 8th grade when we were in Pune. He kept insisting I was wrong, and I am like I would definitely remember what my age was in 7th and 8th grade! How did this topic come up? He got a call from a daughter of a friend of his who used to stay in the same building that we did in Pune, and this said daughter knew *me* (but I had zero recollection of her). She stays local to the area and my dad couldn’t stop about how *excited* I would be to meet her & connect and how we used to play as kids together (no, we didnt, not at all, and she was way younger than me so she probably wouldn’t remember anyway!). My dad’s habit of bending the truth to suit himself is something that has always infuriated me, and its one of the reasons I just refuse to meet absolutely any of his friends & their families (save one, who unfortunately passed away few years back). Time & again I’ve seen him bend the truth to suit *him* even at the expense of making us look stupid so I decided long back I wasn’t getting into this nonsense at all. Now about this lady who has invited us with dad? Well there’s Uber and its not far away & I will magically develop halka sa fever on the said day and get out of it.
We finished Rocket Boys last night, and the season 2 was as good as first, albeit slightly slower paced. I love the brevity of entire series that they were done in 2 season run. Ishwak Singh as Vikram Sarabhai and Jim Sarbh as Homi Bhabha were terrific as were pretty much all the supporting cast including Arjun Radhakrishnan who played Abdul Kalam. Sure, creative liberties were taken with the series but it was also very nice to see creators acknowledging those liberties for story telling purposes, especially around Bhabha. The background score & [intro theme](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRxXvxxy7NY) are fantastic too! This was perhaps one of the best TV shows we’ve seen this year! I wish India makes more of these.

Eating out has become so expensive these days we legit look at the menu and prices of dishes before we decide to go in or order out.
What the fuck is wrong with Indians? [Chole Bature rolled ice cream? Really? Why???!!!](https://www.instagram.com/reel/CpzFELQIR_m/?igshid=MTc4MmM1YmI2Ng==)
I have learnt recently that exercise induced acid reflux is actually a thing and I suffer from it. A very high intensity workout almost invariably gives me acid reflux – generally it’s not too bad so I ignore it, but last night I stayed up till 4 coz I was struggling. Now I have a terrible headache but hey it’s holiday weekend so I am going to sleep!
