Nonsense

Time flies away so fast. I mean, just so literally effing fast! I have always of the opinion that time would have its own definite speed of travel, so to say. Of course, the very statement - speed of time is itself a paradox! In any case in case you are unable to fathom what gibberish I am talking about - fear not. That is exactly my intention. To write a couple of paragraphs without a specific intention.

Of course, this has no sense inherent in it as well. Oh, see the English!
Intellectuals may have certain new terms to explain this phenomenon. Some call it post modern writing. To the lay man, this is non sense - naturally. And that's exactly what I feel too. In times when idiocy and beheadings are becoming common, such nonsensical writing is disgusting, wasteful yet - harmless! So think about it. Take just 5 minutes out of your special life, pause for 300 seconds. Take a couple of selfies less a day, post a post less on Facebook, browse a tag for a short while on Twitter and think. The time that you lost, is never going to come back again. It's gone - for ever. Like your dead grandpa. Yeah - that's what it is. So get your sorry arses up and do something. Do something crazy, do something you care about, even if it makes no sense. Do something. Before life takes what little time you left away from you.

Stalingrad 2013 Movie Review

I saw the trailer of this movie once and really really liked it. What was really interesting was the Thomas Kretschmann acted in a movie with the same name exactly 20 years back. Stalingrad was released in 1993 and the young Kretschmann played the role of a dutiful but conscientious German leutnant of the ill fated 6th Armee. Here also he comes back, slightly older and rugged. The spectacular visuals, the background sound and the lack of background music makes it a realistic watch. That is all positive that I have to say about this trash. Yes, that's what I will this. Naturally, while watching this I brought in similar scenes of Stalingrad (1993) among other war movies. And in comparison this movies cuts so sorry a figure that I dared not watch the entire movie even! The story starts of slow enough and just completely refused to pick up pace. The entire movie seemed to be directed by an amateur school student, bolstered by some insanely talented special effects team. This made t...

Getting back to making stuff

I was off for a while. I mean, I was not. I painted an old shoecase that now looks a gorgeous white cupboard. I fixed my bicycle.  But beyond this, I did not do much beyond what my work paid me to do. So here I am, about to touch a new year of my life - and I am itching to get back into the habit of writing again.  Not just writing stuff here, but also making applications or music.  In fact, after a very long time I feel like sketching again. I think I am going to sketch my wife. Or may be finish my ex wife's sketch. I dunno. But I am gonna get started with a pencil tomorrow. Thanks to chatgpt, I have restarted my application brainstorming and dusted my old Github repos.  I think this is going to be a good run this time.

Saraswati Puja and Valentine's Day Coincide

I used to hear this a lot - for Bengalis (Bengali Hindus), Saraswati Pujo is equivalent to the Valentine's Day . Girls would wear yellow sarees and braid their hair, while guys will be wearing yellow punjabees and white dhoti or pajama.  This time on Feb 14, 2024, they fell on the same day. Woke up pretty early in the morning, showered, wore the dhuti and uttiyo and did Saraswati Puja. Most of the mantras I have got by heart now. After the pushpanjali , I was done and we (my mother and I) could then break our fast with the Mahaprasad . Took a day off for the day, but still joined for a quick catchup call.  This is how she looks like. There is a bit of a history here. Usually, Hindus get the vigraha from the shop every year, worship and then do visarjan (immersion) in a river or pond. However, she is with us since I was in class IX. When I was in Standard X, my grandmother had died. As part of the souch (relatively inauspicious greiving period), we could not get a new vigra...
