Some real hard things going at work; will post about them later but forcing me to refocus for sure on my next steps.

The Weekend is out with his latest album Hurry Up Tomorrow and I can’t wait to hear it on my drive back. I have been a huge fan of After Hours (2020) and Dawn FM (2022), and Hurry Up Tomorrow is last of the trilogy, after which apparently Weeknd is giving up his Weeknd moniker. The Weeknd has always been one of my favorite modern artists so I am looking forward to this! At 85 minutes, this should take a while to finish.

Had an excellent dinner at JOON last night in Tysons Corner. Fabulous Middle-Eastern/North African food. The drinks were terrific as well!

Done with my yearly blog post. I am not linking it here because I want to keep the blogs separate, but my regular readers know where to find it. And if you love me so much that you want to read, drop me a direct message and I will share!

Writing my yearly post forever. I need to post by tonight!

On a whim this morning I decided to check out what are working laws in India for a foreigner like me. Turns out just like USA, if I as a US citizen want to work in India, I have to go through similar process, get a work visa, be paid well, and do a job that an Indian national did not quality for. For whatever reason i kept thinking that because I am an Indian (I am still not used to being an “American” even after citizenship of few years), I should be able to do any job in India right away. Was a good sobering moment to realize its not the same anymore. Which leads me to believe, knowing all the uncertainty there is right now, if you are an Indian citizen on a Green Card in this country, please considering waiting this presidency out to see what might be the impact. As a GC holder you won’t miss much that citizens have, but you have a ready option in India to go back to work unlike us! Definitely food for thought!

I did not sleep well last night at all. Somehow all the negative news of the day caught up with me and I was just stressed. I am a step away from muting all the keywords also now on bluesky/mona because I truly do not want to hear what this administration is doing or care. I need less stress in my life and this is not helping.

3 episodes in Paatal Lok season 2 is a riveting watch. Gripping! Looking forward to finishing this season.

I am just really trying hard to keep away from all news of this administration and it keeps coming in some form or another. I glance at it and all I think is burn it all down. Fuck right off.
