    Ah I wish I had your life.

    Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar, 2024 - ★★★½

    I dont want Sanjay Leela Bhansali's movies for storytelling, but to see a master visual artist in action. In that department, Heeramandi does not disappoint. Good music & terrific performances except one actor (who was just pathetic). But the visuals are just stunning. Bhansali has an eye for details and staging of a scene, and while some may call it all fake, every frame is like a painting. More than anything else I was awed by the visual artistry of the series and that alone got a couple of stars from me!

    The descrioption has me rolling on the floor but I am ALL IN!

    We are in middle of fucking May! Get on with it. Bring on the fucking 90s!

    That’s not northern Virginia. That’s Shenandoah, home of the lowlifes and thugs of Virginia. (Aka, republicans)

    India snack stash, courtesy dad. We are set for a few weeks!

    Shaitaan, 2024 - ★★

    Starts off well and becomes laughably comic by end.

    WTF? People sell restaurants and convenience stores on Facebook marketplace?!

    At this point Apple just makes up random phrases with random words and makes them sound like a technological breakthrough.

    “Precise contrast”? WTF is that?

    Tandem OLED, coz you know a single OLED was never going to be enough for us!

    need more extreme brightness!!! [I am disappointed they just didnt call it Sunshine Brightness or some term like that].

    Laapataa Ladies, 2023 - ★★★½

    Nice slice of life kinda movie but I wish there was a bit more to the movie.

    This is how much I have slept today and I still feel I can sleep through evening and night. On the plus side feeling far better now and cough also relatively gone.

    This console table is a new addition to the house - I love the size of this table and how symmetrical it feels with the walls on the side! Wife wants to replace her painting though I am hesitant of it.

    My hometown (Ahmedabad). Shot this right outside our house - a big print version of this hangs in my basement. I miss my one true home so much!

    This is absolutely my kind of day and temperature. Fuck cold this is what I want 24x7x365! I regret not moving to San Diego when I had a chance 😂

    Our community has end of school year water balloon fight custom. On the last day of school the parents and older kids wait with water balloons for their kids to be dropped off by bus at bus stop. The moments kids drop off from bus a wild water balloon fight ensues between parents and kids! It’s taken very seriously by residents and is a lot of fun!

    Hahaha if your idea of a romance is to get mugged, shot or killed, sure it IS a very romantic city.

    Hitting the pike place market area, getting dried fruit and eating lobster rolls is a common thing I do on most Seattle trips. This year was a definite **surprise **. The area was dead, with homeless and druggies everywhere (though not as quite as bad as sfo my colleague said). I just felt weirdly grossed out and unsafe. It’s a pity just half a decade ago this area was hustling and bustling. This homelessness problem is going to be the bane of all large cities in coming years, especially democratic.

    Shōgun, 2024 - ★★★★

    That ending was nothing like I thought it would be and yet it was perfect.

    I say this again when the sun is out there is no more prettier city than Seattle

    Today I had a Filipino breakfast of eggs, fried veggie roll and garlic rice along with lots of Filipino condiments. It was fucking delicious to say the least! Gonna make that a part of my staple Seattle eats. Tonight though is at Dukes seafood which is another of my favorites - beautiful view and great food - what else do you want?
