The first season was unbearable indeed

Making someone watch The Office is such a great experience.

You're like, I promise I have good taste, just get through the first two seasons. I know Michael is unbearable, I’m sorry. Just stay.

And then they call you when Jim and Pam get married, like this is the greatest love story ever.

And you say this is the third-best love story in the show.

The top two haven’t even started for you yet.

Yesterday I was helping my mother with some school records and came across a girl named 'Baskro' i.e stop. As a kid, I used to laugh at names like 'Akki Rani' until I realised what such names imply. Nothing has changed in these 20 years. It's heartbreaking that parents still

In the olden days, when ships used to dock in Mumbai, they used to tie their boats to the door at the harbour.

The Sanskrit word for tie is Bandh and for a door, is Dwar. So the place they tied a boat was called BandhDwar.

The word then travelled to Persia and became Bandar or Bunder. Which meant port or harbour

So any place in Mumbai which has the word Bunder in it, was a place where once upon a time boats used to dock.

So the place where boats used to dock and had a lot of sacks in it, became BoriBunder

The port where Palla or Hilsa fish was available became Palla Bunder, which then transformed to Apollo Bunder

The port where the Portuguese traded Horses with the Arabs, became Ghodbunder

And a port which had no particular significance was called Bunder. In Marathi, this became Vandre. Which over a period of time became what we
know today as Bandra

The word Bunder in Mumbai is not just a pointless word.

It actually represents Mumbai's maritime heritage and importance

It’s 11 pm on a Saturday night. I have a weird catch in my neck and I’m in so much pain. But I’m sitting on the couch watching some random 21-yo girl’s daily vlogs on YouTube. What is wrong with me?

We are living in a time where sports are treated like wars and wars are treated like sports. People are so consumed by sides that trophies and lives are hardly different, or maybe trophies have more value.

this woman on TikTok said she ran into her ex months after their breakup. although it wasn’t messy. she had just realized he couldn’t give her what she needed long term, so she chose herself.

they went out with friends, ended up sitting in a parking lot for hours after the club closed, laughing like nothing had changed. he told her he loved and missed her. said in a perfect world he’d try again. but he still couldn’t give her the time and emotional capacity she needed.

and what got me was this part.

she said she’s never confused comfort with compatibility

they were good together, they cared about each other, the friendship was still there. but that didn’t mean they were right for each other.

being able to say “this feels good” and still know “this isn’t for me” is emotional maturity.

u probably have imposter syndrome about your skillset because you’ve actually become so skilled at what you do that it now reads as “normal”, so you think it’s normal to everyone else too. ur actually really cool & talented. not everyone can do what you do or knows what you know.
