I am currently stuck at home due to flooding in Chennai. Typhoon Nilam is set to make landfall today and already the winds have picked up and we have been subjected to constant rain. It’s no hurricane but it is pretty nasty. So while poking around this new fangled reddits, I came across this absolute …

Hags of Lag – Repost
(Felt this was appropriate after talking to a friend… It’s a repost and I couldn’t figure how to do reposts properly.)

Sikh of Racists
Racists exist in every culture. There are Hindu racists who declare that my lack of “proper indianess” is evil. There are indians who won’t marry outside their local ethnicity.

Apparently it’s behind some sort of pay wall and someone has quite …

Rights of the Silent Majority – Femme? Fatal!
It’s all in the punctuation after all. This is the first FTB post on the Silent Majority theme. I try and group posts under various themes, so that people roughly know whats in the post. I quickly found out that not everyone is interested in every topic. One of the amusing bits about human evolution …

Collected Writings
Well I have to thank Larian LaQuella for really getting my name out there (I am still technically a guest blogger on his blog). But I figure a short list of articles that I wrote that I think are “good” (Please feel free to correct me) to save new readers time. Caution, I am the …
