Anime I Watched in 2021 :

1. Dororo 5/5

Severely underrated anime. Great animation. Intriguing plot. Likable characters. Just enough of angst. Highly recommend this one.

2. Burn the Witch 4/5

Great to see Tite Kubo’s work again. And great to see the bleach universe once more. Can’t wait for this to continue. Already love the story and characters. Interesting villains (and by interesting I mean hawt 🥵)

3. Fruits Basket 2019 5/5

Listen I didn’t want to like this one. It was so hyped that I thought it was overrated but booooyyy was I wrong. It deserved the hype. The plot was top tier. At the end of the second season I had to pick my jaw off the ground with that reveal. All the characters were likable. Except Akito; she deserved punishment for what she put all the members of the Zodiac through. Overall this is highly recommended.

4. Re: Zero 4/5

This one took me to Spain without the S. This one frustrated me but I just had to keep on going. Subaru is the biggest simp but I can’t blame him; Emilia is just the cutest. Really liked this one but I’m not sure if I’m emotionally ready for the next season. Also this anime made me scared of bunnies 🐰

5. Gintama 1,00,000/5

Where do I even begin with this masterpiece. I went into this for the comedy. THE COMEDY!!! I did not expect the FEELS. Jesus H. Christ this one blew me away. All the characters were likable, the plots were sometimes questionable but it worked for this anime. The OST’s were god tier. The openings and endings deserve awards. Unpopular opinion but I think Gintama’s opening and endings are better than Naruto. Please if you haven’t watched this one just give it a chance. It took a couple episodes to hook me in but when it did it, it hooked me good. Also if you want an anime with strong female characters this is the one. No waiting for men to save the heroine, the women go in and f*ck shit up (I’m looking at you Courtesan of a Nation Arc.) Seriously though, everyone needs to watch this.

6. Devil man Crybaby 4/5

My coworker put me on to this one. Word of advice: do not watch this one at work 👀 that first episode almost gave me a heart attack. This one surprised me. And that ending wow 🤯. This anime is not for the faint of heart. Please don’t watch this if you’re underaged. I took a while to like the animation style but it eventually grew on me. Overall it’s a good one that I highly recommend.

7. Those Snow White Notes

Tik Tok recommended this anime to me. You know that one scene with the guy and his mom in the apartment, yeah that one. I remembered getting goosebumps and I knew I had to watch and for once tik tok lead me in the right direction. This one isn’t about romance or school is about the shamisen ( a traditional Japanese instrument) and let me tell you how good this was. The music blew me away. The emotions from the MC and his love/hate relationship with the shamisen really captivated me. And that first opening was amazing. Definitely recommend this one.

8. To Your Eternity 5/5

I think I need to send my therapy bill to the creator of this show. Seriously though this one brought pain but goddamn that opening was good. And Fushi was just too dang cute you wanted to see his progress. This one had so many characters that you just can’t help but fall in love with each one of them and damn the author for ripping out my heart every time.

9. Heaven’s Official Blessing 5/5

I’m sorry but Xie Lian and Hua Cheng invented true love. There’s no debating. They’re the epitome of power couple. This series took me by surprise and I loved every millisecond of it. And please if you haven’t read the novel PLEASE PLEASE read it!!! I promise it’s worth it. Now excuse me while I cry because I’m sad and lonely 😩

10. Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation 4/5

This was one was great. Action, comedy, tragedy with a added touch of barely there romance. Since this was only the second Chinese animation that I watched the names were a bit confusing but by the third season I kinda got it?

Self help books are overrated. To quote the legendary comedian George Carlin ”If you're looking for self-help, why would you read a book written by somebody else?” and “If you're reading it in a book, folks, it ain't self-help. It's help.”But no one can deny the success of these self help books.

The names of some of these self help books are insane. My favourite ones are ”The monk who sold his ferrari”and ”Think like a monk”. Which monk should I think like? The monk who sold his ferrari? I am sorry but selling a ferrari is not one of the things that I would want to do at age 20. Then there's the famous book called ”The 4a.m club”. Here is the thing, I respect people who can get up at 4 a.m and do productive work, but to be able to go to sleep at 4 a.m and wake up at 6 with the intention of coming to college and spending 7 hours here listening to lectures requires another level of patience and dedication which these morning people will never be able to achieve.

Then there's another book called ”Who moved my cheese? ”... I don't know bro. Stop looking at me. It's probably Jerry. Get yourself a cat.

But my two absolute favorites are “The subtle art of not giving a fuck” and ”The secret”. The subtle art is basically buddhism but for bros. It's full of stories explaining to you why you shouldn't give a fuck about anything. But here's the thing, if you write a book about not giving a fuck about anything- then isn't that counterproductive? You spend a lot of your time and energy writing a book about why no one , including you shouldn't give a fuck, but in the process of doing so you actually give a fuck.

What an accidental fuck!

The secret is amazing. The book is called secret but they tell you what the secret is, which is again dumb. But according to this book you can wish for something so much ,put that energy into the universe and it will come true. It doesn't work. Trust me I have tried it. I have been wishing for a ferrari for 20 years of my life but all I have gotten is books about stupid monks selling their Ferrari's.

The people who read self help books are my favorite kind of people. They just look so fucking gullible all the time. They read a good self help book and they decides to change their lives completely. It's like taking new year resolutions every two months. These people think that their life would miraculously change if they woke up at 5 in the morning and changed their bedsheets. They are so adorably gullible.

But being a self help writer is an amazing place to be in. The level of desperation in people goes up everyday, thus increasing your market size. You can never run out of business. I think more people should consider this as a start up option. Write a book, if it helps people it's well and good, otherwise buy yourself that ferrari!

My body just gave me the usual red signal which implies I am not pregnant. Of course I knew this. I am not Virgin Mary to get pregnant without having sex, so could you tone it down miss uterus?

The dictionary defines the word “signal" as a gesture, action, or sound that is used to convey information or instructions, typically by prearrangement between the parties concerned. Signals are supposed to be mild, it is supposed to warn a person about an impending action.How the fuck is blood flowing out of the vagina a signal? If it happened to a man it would be a medical emergency. But women's bodies are made in this stupidly beautiful way that we convince ourselves that pain is an inevitable part of it. Saggy boobs, cramps, nipples that pop out like it's the leading man in a march past.

I would be fine if it was just the cramps. But the cramps had to invite it's neighbours mood swings and anxiety. You know how people compare women's bodies to temples? I think they were right. It is a temple. There are uninvited guests coming to visit me on a beautiful Wednesday morning, like they are here to perform a ritual of some sort.

I would still let it slide but for God sakes the blood that's coming out of me is just plainly disgusting. I am not expecting my uterus to expel jasmine scented blood, but it doesn't have to be this disgusting either. After all it's the uterus who , regardless of my brain's consent is hell bend on creating a place for a baby. And when it realises that there's no baby magically appearing inside the body, it stats to throw a tantrum like a 9 year old who has just lost his favorite toy. The uterus could lower it's expectations, but that nasty little piece of my body refuses to follow the laws. It refuses to send a mild signal. It refuses to give up hope.

You know how existentialist philosophers , depressed teenagers and people with a dark sense of humor say something like I want to die or I am waiting for death? That's exactly how I feel about the menstrual cycle. I just want menopause. I know popular culture has made it look like a terrible phase of a women's life, but then again when has patriarchy not vilified a women's life outside her biological purpose?

I am not saying that I am obsessed with the hot priest character from Fleabag. All I am saying is that if he was a priest in my church, I would become a theist and go to church every fucking day.

On some days I am the private detective trying to find the serial killer without any help from the official authorities, on other days I am a divorced woman trying to find love in a loveless world. My personality changes faster than the direction of wind and the colour of leaves.

I need to rant...about a good thing.

So my fav band is imagine dragons .The first song of ID that i listened to was Believer, which had become extremely popular when it got released. I loved the song and so I started following their discography.

In 2012 ID released an album called Night Visions. It had songs like Radioactive, On top of the world and Demons. I loved all of it. In fact demons was my ringtone for the longest time. I was worried how they would be able to outshine this masterpiece.

Then in 2015 they released an album called Smoke + mirrors. Initially I wasn't really obsessed with the songs ,but then I started listening to it again and again. Songs like Warrior and Shots were pumping adrenaline in my body. I was sure that this is their best album .

2017, they released the album Evolve. As i mentioned above, this was my introduction to ID and because I loved Believer,I started listening to the entire album. This one had songs like Walking the wire, Thunder, Whatever it takes etc. All of them were lyrically so fucking good. The songs were so good both lyrically and musically that I was convinced these guys won't be able to top it again, EVER.

The very next year came the album Origins. Two of my most fav ID songs, Birds and Bad liar are from this album. It was a perfect mix of emotionally-hitting-lyrically-amazing songs and i-am-gonna-dance-to-this-at-3a.m songs. This according to me was undoubtedly their best freaking album ever. No doubt, no debate, nothing.

Then...then these guys released Mercury Act 1 last year. It is about death , the pain and shock that comes with it. So this was a heavy hitting album obviously . The lyrics were pure gold. There were songs like My life, It's OK, Wrecked, lonely etc which I can connect to on a spiritual level. But the best thing about this album was that it was a perfectly mixed album - so there'll be a heavy hitting song like Wrecked,which is about death but the next song on the list is Monday,a song celebrating the most hated day of the week. Majority of these songs had upbeat melodies with somber lyrics. Again, I was sure this was it. Perfect. They cannot outdo themselves now.

Today they released Mercury Act 2 😭 and I don't know what to say. If Act 1 is about death ,then act 2 is about coping with it, living your life , moving forward. It is described as a celebration of life and humanity. Songs like Siren, Ferris Wheel, Waves, Sharks...I can go on and on about how much I love this album.

😭😭😭

Every person need to be taught disability history

Not the “oh Einstein was probably autistic” or the sanitized Helen Keller story. but this history disabled people have made and has been made for us.

Teach them about Carrie Buck, who was sterilized against her will, sued in 1927, and lost because “Three generations of imbeciles [were] enough.”

Teach them about Judith Heumann and her associates, who in 1977, held the longest sit in a government building for the enactment of 504 protection passed three years earlier.

Teach them about all the Baby Does, newborns in 1980s who were born disabled and who doctors left to die without treatment, who’s deaths lead to the passing of The Baby Doe amendment to the child abuse law in 1984.

Teach them about the deaf students at Gallaudet University, a liberal arts school for the deaf, who in 1988, protested the appointment of yet another hearing president and successfully elected I. King Jordan as their first deaf president.

Teach them about Jim Sinclair, who at the 1993 international Autism Conference stood and said “don’t mourn for us. We are alive. We are real. And we’re here waiting for you.”

Teach about the disability activists who laid down in front of buses for accessible transit in 1978, crawled up the steps of congress in 1990 for the ADA, and fight against police brutality, poverty, restricted access to medical care, and abuse today.

Teach about us.

you don't get it you don't get it bojack horseman and kendall roy are the same. they are literally the same in different fonts. from their addictions, obsession with external validation to both of them attempting suicide by drowing in their pools in penultimate episodes of the season. and that suicide being ideated and foreshadowed in both imagery within the narrative and the opening credits. screaming, crying, throwing UP. if the parallel runs true though, he won't be dead and he'll go to prison.

If I had a nickel for every time Aaron Paul played a twenty-something stoner who dresses exclusively in beanies and oversized hoodies, has a toxic friendship with a middle-aged man (who is the main character), gets into trouble with a drug cartel, is estranged from his family after getting kicked out of his house by his parents, loves being around children, has multiple tattoos, and is constantly being berated as useless and lazy despite actually having a great talent and work ethic, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

The rant of a frustrated 20 year old.

My generation is the fucking worst, isn't it? There's depression and anxiety which is killing more people than hunger and poverty. Fake news and propaganda are shoved into our throats every day, numbing us from reality. Conspiracy theorists and ideologically brainfreezed homosapiens are wrecking havoc. Climate change is at its peak. There are uncontrollable wildfires and floods that makes me believe that in some way or the other there is a high chance that I could die from one of these environmental problems. World is segregated, people hate each other. Migrations have become a common phenomenon which is no longer attributed to exotic birds. There is hatred and fundamentalism which is spreading faster that fake whatsapp forwards. Religious minorities are oppressed, secular people are called out for being 'secular'- which apparently is a bad thing right now . History is repeated, often narratives are altered to suit the politicians electoral game. Technological advancement is further separating people. Economy is down in the dumps. Unemployment is a fucking huge problem. Education system is tanking. Global pandemic and virus mutations are happening faster than Apple releasing their iphones. Wars are happening in different parts of the world. People are being killed. Women are getting raped, children are being molested. Mental health issues are soaring. Dictators with fragile ego's are running the world. Kids who are fifteen are thinking about committed suicide. There's homophobia, transphobia, racism, sexism and misogyny spreading around us. There's a lack of communication and trust between people who live under the same roof. Education doesn't guarantee a job anymore. Love isn't real anymore. There's a lack of freedom to express your emotions or thoughts. People don't listen to each other.

.

Existence is pain.

Only a few people deserve poetry.

The others deserve whatsapp chats with spelling mistakes.
