Love in the times of Corona.

Of late, I have been thinking a lot about love. I don’t know why that is, maybe the distance from my family and all things comfortable and safe are making me more vulnerable than usual. Or maybe, I’m in that mental headspace where emotions are clouding my usually robotic and practical outlook towards life. Whatever...

Why DC hasn’t realized its full potential a.k.a. My most divisive article yet

Look, I've been on the internet too. I know how many of these kind of articles are floating out there, vying for attention. I bet you remember that scene where Harry Potter's adoptive family try to keep him away from his Hogwarts invitation letter. Eventually, the owls drop so many of them, that they're flooding...

Self-help corner

We've all got bad memories. Those dark, forbidding snapshots of the mind that bog us down, or, if left festering long enough, even have a hand in shaping our personalities and outlook to life.

Where’s the grand celebratory bash dammit

I dreamt I was trapped in a cabin, log. Paying heed to the advice of a worthless frog. He was not a prince, What he did was rinse, All the nice ideas from my future online blog. So now you know who to blame for my slow pace. I make corny jokes and cornier limericks...

No I’m not dead and other things

First off, I’m sorry that you were subscribed (I know this isn’t youtube shutthewjjnfsk…) to an abandoned blog for the past 2-3 months.

The most rivetting story you will ever read

There's something I want to tell you all today. Did you hear about the cat who wanted the plush cushion in the neighbour's living room? She was fed up of the hard floors and the hard humans who surrounded her. Her paws hurt and her entire being cried out for the soft, velvety touch of...

Oxygen? pfft. I have stories

Stories, man. What enchanting, wondrous creations. Figments of imagination that leap into existence, flowing bountiful from vibrant minds all over the world. Each one nestles in itself a strange universe, some quite like ours, and others that couldn't be more different. There is a gravity to these tales that draws us towards them, makes us...

Where’s the champagne dammit

We made it to 100 followers, people! I'm overjoyed as I write this, for obvious reasons. I was told a lot of things by a lot of people. "You need to have a certain theme for your blog, Saket", "You can't post anything, Saket", "People need to know what to expect, Saket", and I stood...
