An innuendo of the end of February

This was honestly a shower thought, I sometimes get these random epiphanies but I rarely write with that in mind, and well I was not doing anything else so I thought I would act on it for a change. To keep you company while reading this, you can listen to this song - Let Down by Radiohead Since I last wrote something we are nearly on the brink of World War 3 and well I stopped keeping up with world politics, am convinced we are all doomed so I really don't even know who are our allies and who our enemies are. But I did learn about other things though, I learned more about myself and well, there could be things that other people can pick up from this as well. I realised a very specific character flaw that I have which I always knew about is getting out of control, my people pleasing attitude. I have always known it was bad, and that people would walk all over me if I kept it around, yet I somehow still retain it. I have been taught to always smile and always be nice to p...

Sisyphus without his boulder!

I seldom write anymore, not because I don't want to, mostly because I can't. I think it was because of one of two things: all the unfinished drafts I have in this blog and even the last blog post I have in this blog, everything feels so low effort to me. There is no depth in it, as if there was no life in what I was writing, and I know it's true. Or the fact that I don't think it matters. Life is at an impasse, and I was thinking it was just for me, but it turns out that's not really the case. I was talking to one of my close friends/mentors, and he was super depressed about it as well. He said, and I quote, "It's as if life has no volatility anymore, nothing is exciting. It's like we are in low IV markets." I couldn't agree more with him. There are signs which point to impending doom, and we are acting as blind as we always have been about it. I don't think the general populace understands how bad things are, which is worrying. The world w...

Bangalore

3rd February 2026, that’s when I’m writing this, in the backseat of an auto on the way to the bus stop to go back to Kerala. Bangalore was always a mixed bag for me; I was never really fond of the place. Think of a small town boy, who didn’t know what traffic was, what bad roads were, and what crowds were, being here in the ever-developing Bangalore! I mean, the last time I came here, the place ended in Whitefield. Now it’s almost till Tamil Nadu. This time I came here to chill. Unlike all the other times when I came to visit somebody, this time I was actually just here to relax. All thanks to the little-known band Linkin Park coming to India for the first time ever! I almost forgot to keep you occupied while reading whatever this is, you can play this song . The entire trip just sent me on a time jump. The emotions I have right now are the same ones I had when I was quite young and went to visit my relatives. You know the feeling where you know you are here, safe, with family, with pe...
