My first time in the Bay Area - coming to the realisation that the average trendy restaurant here is as good/bad as ones in Blr and a notch worse than Del / Mum. Specialty coffee scene is fab though!

There’s a type of young person these days who comes across as super witty and funny, but after a while you realise they’re just very good situational-meme-and-reel-reference-generators. Unsettling.

“Not because x but because y” is absolutely everywhere now. Youtube videos. Radio ads. Taglines on billboards. Everything is slop.

I’m so tired of everyone at work sounding like Claude on Slack. We don’t have coworkers with personalities anymore. The cryptic one. The person whose message length reflects mental state. The gal who always curiously misspells one specific word. That’s what made work fun.

I went 3 days without coffee recently and here's what I learned:
1) I can function perfectly well without it
2) Coffee is one of the loveliest things about being alive; it makes the mundane moment wonderful; its aroma and taste makes the mind bloom with dynamism

Discovered I can make cold brew in my French press and my life has changed. Psa Subko’s salawara bros makes better cold brew than anything you’ll find in cafés

@PratikshaDake I just went to their website and remembered why I’ve never bought something - the size chart seems off? I’ll have to buy 2 sizes larger than usual as per the chart.

Who’s building natural fiber active wear in India? I’ve started going back to Jockey, but I’d like to look less like I’m a time traveler from 2003

[Attorney General Ken Paxton @KenPaxtonTX]

🚨BREAKING: I launched an investigation into Lululemon over the potential presence of toxic "forever chemicals" in activewear.

[SpuddyKat @spadjay]

Almost everyone said wellbi and the folks sent me a couple of T-shirts - they are really good! Need to now try yamayoga and athlos.

Where can one buy the best mangoes right now in Bangalore/online?

This discourse is so funny to me as a JP Nagar bred who grew up thinking of Indiranagar as aspirational

[Garv Malik @malikgarv]

Upward ladder in BLR

HSR > Koramangala > Indiranagar > MG Road > JP Nagar > Nirvana

Pls Note: Whitefield, Bellandur & Sarjapur aren't on the list. Intentionally.

Kerala always gets religion right. As Nietzsche put it, “I would only believe in a God who knows how to dance”.

@dosacat_ Yes that’s what got me hooked! Bangladesh was also fab, now listening to Afghanistan

The very definition of rage bait.

@DanishSait It’s giving Cunk on Earth! Laughed all the way through the trailer. Can’t wait for the show 😀

[SpuddyKat @spadjay]

@shobhitic Hahaha. I wanted to bring up shared interest in cricket as a common Indian experience but couldn’t fit it in

[SpuddyKat @spadjay]

Wrote something on what being ‘Bangalorean’ means (and it’s not what you think)
