The Warmth

There's a way about the Bhadralok's that i am missing so much here. Not to say that the Upper lippers ala Americans, are any less 'bhadra'. But there's a funny way about our conservative yet coming of age babumoshai's.
I am suddenly reminded of the warmth one feels in a stinking ride from MG Road to Esplanade. Warmth could be construed differently, and i for one like the warmth Kolkata exudes. The sun never ceases to help you to break into a sweat. The Maidan is ever bright like almost a contrast to the starkness of the City of Joy.
I don't even know what i am writing and why i am writing but i guess i am trying to bring myself back to the Glorious writing days.
Although this blog won't be advertised and if you're reading it, you're a privileged few to sneak into my private boding.

How I Got Trapped in a Crypto Scam in India — And What Every Investor Must Know Before Investing in Any Crypto Startup

 Cryptocurrency is supposed to represent the future of finance — borderless, decentralized, and transparent . But for many Indian investors like myself, it has become a story of lost money, broken trust, and unanswered support tickets . I invested my savings in Bitbns , a well-known Indian crypto exchange.

No Real Support — Only Bot Replies Every time I raised a support ticket, I got automated, copy-paste replies . No human responses, no effort to understand the problem. I now have over 100 identical replies . That’s not customer support — that’s a wall of silence. 2. Withdrawals for the Well-Connected Only Over time, it has become painfully clear that...

Inception- The movie

Flawless execution. To the uninitiated, Inception is a movie that instantly defies conformance. And no one but Chris Nolan could have handled it with so much specific-ity ( you'll know what i mean if you've seen the movie ). The movie traverses a dreamers voyage. YOU are the dreamer, we all are. I found a profound message hidden in one of the layers of the entire idea. All of us live in a dreamscape and the only true nature of our environment is elusiveness. Nothing lasts. We are all lucid dreamers. Stop waiting for the kick to settle in. Bon voyage.

I Don't Honk - Kolkata Chapter

We have all honked our way ahead on the streets of Kolkata. That's the way it is always meant to be. Precisely why our ugly behemoths -namely trucks and lorries have it written on the back - Horn Ok Please. So that's imbibed in our culture. Everyone subconsciously agrees to this sound of music. In the culture that we have collectively amassed; it is a widely acceptable norm. In fact, there are various categories of honking : 1. The Big car irritable long honks - Get out of my way you slow moving vehicle. Can't you see I'm wheeling an expensive drive. Well, only to be stuck 50 meters ahead in traffic. 2. The taxi horn that goes honk honk after every 30 seconds. They sometimes do it even at the traffic light just because they get bored and are often times without a music player. 3. The warning deep growl of a swerving giant - I'm going to maneuver and overtake. So you better move away you tiny marutis ( which is a de facto name for all 4 wheelers regardless ...
