It’s morning in South Asia, a perfect moment to follow/request to join my South Asian lang/lit starter pack!
I created a South Asian languages and literatures starter pack! I’m sure I missed many people. If you are a translator, linguist, scholar, or even a dabbler or dilettante, please let me let me know in the comments and I will add you. go.bsky.app/AFjHSX6

Dr. Mack literally wrote the book on end of the universe scenarios, and she did it with brilliance, good humor, and enough bone-chilling fear to make it scary. And, well, fun.
Anyways, if you want a crisis, read her book.

Translating some sections of Pettai by Tamil Prabha doesn't feel like work! So much life, violence and romance! It's a full-on Tamil masala movie in a novel!
