I learned that for naturalisation, my name must be French or a francisation of my birth name. So here we are — Amaranthe for France, Amarnath for my Hindu community, and Athis, the French form of my surname and the name of a queer Indian-born figure in Greek myth.

This is the Belur Math Temple in West Bengal, India, which belongs to the Ramakrishna Order.
The photo is an original old-school Kodak print, and it’s been my bookmark for the past few months.
One day, I hope to spend an extended period in India and make my pilgrimage.

"Isokon is a TV historical drama series just waiting to be made; a recreation of its modernist interiors, intercut with panoramic scenes of the Heath & Hampstead’s leafy environs, ought to make for a cinematic treat"

As I saw and reposted this well before reading the whole thread I was genuinely surprised it was from a film studies thread and not a general discussion about academia.
The damned in hell are not more powerful for the fact that the fires do not consume them; it is part and parcel of their torment.

“Neuromancer” wasn’t just a novel, it was the stepping stone for everything from The Matrix to the way we imagine cyberspace and cyberpunk today. Agree?

After experiencing trauma and having my disability completely disregarded at a certain university, it’s striking how welcoming l’EHESS is. Even the longer evening classes feel less exhausting. I’ve found my new intellectual home. 😌

My prayers go out to her family and friends. Burger Becky was a fucking legend, an OG gamer, an essential part of video game history, and a trans icon. The world is poorer for her absence.

Her family has a GoFundMe set up to help pay for her medical care and funeral expenses, as well.
My trailblazing game industry bad-ass friend Rebecca Heineman has passed away.

Fuck cancer.

Friends, let’s not forget her: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebecca...
