It’s such an incredulous thing really that Trump in first term was presented with the covid pandemic, and instead of using his own wins of funding the vaccine development as his real legacy (lets be honest, operation warp speed did save a lot of lives!), he looked at it and decided, nope, I am gonna go real crazy town here and then goes even more anti-science in his second term. Like dude, if you had played your cards correctly, you’d have won the Nobel peace prize already just for that. Some people are just gifted losers.

📺 Saare Jahan Se Accha: The Silent Guardians (2025) – ★★☆☆☆

Couldn’t even get past episode 3. Could have been so much better.
I mean to be honest I thought America is the only country that did yearly covid vaccines anymore. Like I don’t know anyone in India who took any more covid boosters after first couple. Last year almost half my friends skipped it – I don’t think the vaccine restriction news will be taken as badly as reddit or online communities suggest. The uptick was low anyways! FWIW I do plan to take it again (I think…. I qualify).

Reading yet another micro.blog drama on Mastodon makes me so glad I stood up my own WordPress instance. My content, my corner and I share what I want (which admittedly is a lot!).
I honestly had no idea what Cracker Barrel was and upon realizing it was a conservative jerk-off Mecca I am gonna stay even more far away.
I am convinced that RTO mandates are yet another way of trying to keep women out of workforce. Yesterday at work my bosses (one desi, one American) seemed genuinely surprised that I was willing to pay toll to get back home because I had to pick up my kid. Both of their wives are SAHMs so they never quite relate to the idea that other women work and can be busy. Their usual response to anything is “my wife usually takes care of it” – yeah dude, that’s why you can come in at 7am at work and stay till 7 in evening, that’s why you have no issues doing the 90 min one way ride into office into DC, that’s why you have no issues with meetings at random times off hours and we are expected to join because “at my level we do”. If only they took more interest in their personal lives more than work we’d all be more productive!
I suppose a Taylor Swift and Morgan Wallen duet can’t be far away can it? I also don’t doubt her taking “but both sides are same…” position very soon considering the august company she keeps and will keep from now on!
I wouldn’t be surprised if next week Tim Cook reveals a special liquid glass Donald Trump dynamic wall paper that comes pre-installed and default with every new iPhone or IOS release, just like he knew we all wanted and loved U2 so much. I will be disappointed if it doesn’t happen!
We are not done with August and heaters are on at night already 😖
