The fact that I was listening to Arjit Singh last night and texted my bestie "I am in love, no idea with whom"
That lyric "tu lage mujhe pehli barish ki Dua" (You seem like the prayer of first rain to me). Idk much about Hinduism (my bad) but in Islam we have this thing that rain is a form of mercy so whatever you pray for, you get it when it rains. So like he is singing that she is his first prayer whenever it rains.
I will stop ranting now. 😭
lil bro's okay, but grandfather's not so good. it's still stable, but they're talking about travelling down west it's cooler, but it's gonna be costly oof. lil bro has scool in like 4 days, and it's likely they'll put out a circular to postpone school openings.
anyways have i mentioned i hate taylor swift? because i do so badly. one of my mutuals reblogged a "fav song" post with a taylor swift song and i got a papercut, she's bad luck see proved.
gooooooddd im so sick of all these edits with her lyrics. fandoms are polluted with her word and all these super cool gifs so talented and then i see her words "who else decode you" and i feel like throwing my laptop im so so so so sick of her and her brand of sickening white conservative "feminism".
i'm thankful she doesn't come to india i don't think i can handle the cooties. the other desi anon saying upper middle class girls liked her? totally true. i moved schools to like a richer more renowned one and i started hearing about her way more than i ever needed to.
anyways if you ever need recs to hindi songs, do let me know! i promise you every single lyric arjit singh has ever sung has contained more romanticism, more poetry that the entirety of her 30 albums and 900 copy paste songs, and that's after you translate it in english using google translate (bad translator for hindi).
I’m so sorry to hear that about your grandfather. I hope your family will find a way to travel west without it hurting financially. Also, your brother has school? In the U.S. this is around the time the school year ends. Is this the beginning of the school year or is this resuming school?
Right! Fandom is totally ruined because of Swifties. The only music they use in edits are hers and completely bulldoze any conversation when it comes to Taylor Swift, saying their faves would be swifties, no matter how OOC it is for the character. Like the “Hobie Brown is secretly a swiftie” post. HE WOULD NOT BE A SWIFTIE! Hobie is a fucking radical punk! He is the ANTITHESIS OF A SWIFTIE!
(Also-I was so confused by the “I got a papercut see bad luck proved,” because I genuinely thought that was a song title of hers. Her songwriting is just that bad.)
This is so damning, the correlation of wealth and Desi Swifties. This is what it’s like in the U.S. too but it’s crossed over with racial politics too. But generally richer = more likely to be a Swiftie. At least this is like anecdotal proof now rather than conjecture that I was accused of by other people.
Please send in the recs! I love expanding my music taste and from my limited exposure to Bollywood films, their soundtracks are always so fucking fire!

On my way to get Saleebein Meray Dareechay Mein 🏃
15 August 1952:
Your letter came today. I feel happy today after a mild attack of a blue period lasting over a few days. It must be the weather. It is more like spring than summer. The mornings are vaguely cool and disturbing like the first breath of love and the sun in the early hours brings more colour than heat. In the evenings the breeze seems to bring the breath of the seas and the skies seem to close not on drab prison walls but on distant palm- fringed beaches. And it is sad like all beauty that is within your sight and beyond your grasp—like all beauty that you know to be an illusion.
An excerpt from Faiz’s Letters to Alys (Saleebein Meray Dareechay Mein)
Hello ! Thank you so much for being patient with me ! I am a Palestinian academic educator from bleeding Gaza. Life is dire and desperate that is why I am asking you to support my donation campaign to help evacuate a whole family from this catastrophic place. Your contribution helps the children of the family live in peace and safety. Don't spare this moment of giving your hand to people in bad need to you. You can help either through donating or sharing the link to others. Let children of Gaza live in peace.
Be the one who helps others survive
Yours

I found the characters in kktm cringe but overall I liked the story bcz of it's setting. Namal and Haalim are top tier. You will enjoy them even when you reread them. Man O Salwa is iconic. Jo Bache hein Sang samet lo is cute romance minus the cringe.
any Urdu novel recommendation?

This campaign is relatively new but I have it on very good authority that it is legitimate.
Hussam needs to evacuate 13 of his family members from Gaza, including his sister who gave birth in February and now has an infant to care for as well as a young daughter. He’s already lost more than 18 of his family members, and now his remaining family are spread out in refugee camps across southern Gaza.
Any donation makes a difference. Sincerely, if everyone who sees this gives $5 that’s already a great step forward.
While America is distracted with who Taylor Swift is sitting next to and watching zionist paid commercials, Israel is busy bombing 1.6 million people in Rafah.
Just so everyone understands: these are displaced civilians with absolutely NO WHERE to go.
And Israel has given them 2 options: Be ethnically cleansed or die.
the problem is that I want to know everything in the world but also I can't seem to do my laundry when I'm supposed to, rendering me absolutely useless
