Not sure if anyone exists out here, but in case you do, I think this is fun and kind of mind blowing to think about

It’s disconcerting to find yourself constantly on the opposite side of the people you were supposed to be ideologically aligned with. It would have made more sense if I felt I had switched teams — become a right winger or a conservative, but I haven’t.

Sometimes I look at my notes with incredulity. There is so much finished work in there, even, and yet I don’t shoot it because maybe there’s some last 1% that I feel I still need to work on. Truly, perfection is the enemy of done

One of the biggest indicators of lack of prejudice is whether you will marry your kid into another community/religion. I have had two Hindu friends express oblique interest in my son for their daughters. Bohat fascinating laga mujh ko.

I follow certain people who are obsessed with decolonization and Palestine or the stolen artefacts at the British museum & they incessantly share the pop culture they partake in, all of which is Brit or American. And they see no irony.

Clean the bathroom, the fridge, do the laundry, fold the laundry, vacuum, swiffer, cook, do grocery, put away grocery, push back the thought of all the drawers & cabinets that need to be organised better. Do jobs that earn you money. And then have spare time leftover for ‘passion projects’. Hah!

I, a rank amateur in Urdu, can discover language issues in published, produced stuff that must have been seen by dozens of professionals. Truly depressing. This is not a humblebrag. Khuda ki qasam dukh hota hai

مجھے ہے حکمِ اذاں لا الہٰ الااللہ strange to not believe but be culturally immersed in narratives you consider problematic. And then your Lit education also allows you to appreciate their artistic merit.

I see so many smart young people unable to comprehend freedom of speech ideas. For years I’ve been wanting to do a video. Maybe it will help a few

I hate gold. My mother bought me a bracelet a couple of decades ago that I immediately lost because it dropped off of my wrist. She got me another (darned expensive) one, it got stolen. And today I lost a third one. Hate it so much. Never never buying gold again.

For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself, then he has naught To say the things he truly feels And not the words of one who kneels The record shows I took the blows And did it my way
