America is now run by grown men who bitch and bicker on X.

Same feeling once again after five more months.

Logged back in after what feels like decades!

I'm not sure when I will finally consider kicking my smoking addiction, but I really should kick my Twitter addiction as soon as I can.

this is what queer activism without grounding in anti-imperialism looks like

There would be no greater disservice to Pa Ranjith than categorizing him as just a "political filmmaker", he is a true cinema artist and one of the remaining few who still seem to care about the cinematic image, in an age where filmmaking has become all about stories and stars.

Warren Beatty - 📽️ Ishtar (Elaine May, 1987)

This notorious bomb is quite fun due to May’s storytelling, and the swagger Beatty and Dustin Hoffman bring to their awful lounge singers. As a Morocco gig flings them into the middle of an international crisis, Beatty keeps the laughs coming the most.

Today's arrivals.

বেশ কিছুদিনের অবসরের পর আবার স্বপ্ন দেখাদেখি। স্বপ্ন একটা গল্প বলার। এ গল্প আমার, আমার জগতের, আমার বন্ধুদের, আমার ভালবাসার মানুষদের। গুরুদের নাম নিয়ে শুরু করলাম "গান্ধী কলোনি"'র দ্বিতীয় খসড়া।

After quite a long break, I am back to dreaming. Dreaming of telling a story. This story is about me, my world, my friends, and my loved ones...

BlueSky is the most pleasant experience I've had on a new social networking platform, but I'm also afraid it'll collapse the moment everyone and their friend's dog is able to enter, and it'll all collapse in less than two days, like it happened with Clubhouse, Threads, and all that.

Once Bluesky opens up to the public, any invite tickets left over will be converted into permaban tickets, which you can use to permanently ban any user.

Sathi (2002) by Haranath Chakraborty // Pyaasa (1957) by Guru Dutt

If Guru Dutt lived till the 2000s and made a melodrama revolving around a dreamy-eyed young man who moves to Calcutta and falls in love, but is always misunderstood by his beloved, he'd've made Sathi.

This is kinda weird lol, it's like going from using my phone to suddenly using my parents' phones. Maybe it's the font size here, just doesn't feel right. Will take some time to get used to this.

Hi, folks! It's me Azad (@urstrulyAzad and @Ritwikian on Twitter). It's nice to be here.
