I genuinely wasn't prepared for how deeply moving it is to see someone recite your poem. Thank you for such a beautiful recital L!!

मौसम की मेहरबानी पर भरोसा करेंगे, तो शीत से निपटते-निपटते लू तंग करने लगेगी। मौसम के इन्तजार से कुछ नहीं होगा। वसन्त अपने-आप नहीं आता, उसे लाया जाता है। सहज आनेवाला तो पतझड़ होता है, वसन्त नहीं। अपने-आप तो पत्ते झड़ते हैं।

Ahead of tomorrow's finale, I wrote about the philosophy of Severance for @theneweuropean.bsky.social (there are no spoilers)

The secret at the heart of Severance

The high-concept streaming hit is really asking one question: who would we be without our trauma?

in this mess of a life you just reinstall social media after deleting it and wiping it clean and start posting again and then you go on like that till you have a breakdown and wipe it clean again. over and over.

being gay should not involve online discourse. it should involve being naked on a picnic blanket with the collected poems of someone gorgeous or at least not insufferable
