@alfiekohn This in a nutshell is why I’ve sheltered my kids from society.

Anyone in want to meet up this evening for drinks or bubble tea or something? I’d love to meet new people!

Pertinent tags:






I feel kind of desperate/awkward, haha - just trying to avoid a repeat of a recent local meetup that made me feel incredibly uncomfortable as a /#NBWOC.

Hey there!

I’m an 🇮🇳 🇺🇸 who makes , writes , and blogs about trying to become a professional (ie no dayjob) & other stuff.

I also have a later life diagnosis (at 49) and I’m still sorting through various griefs and trying to figure out what parts of my personality are masking and what are authentic parts of me.

I almost finished a about how I figured out that I have ADHD but I got distracted by something else 🤷🏽‍♂️

Telugu Americans are a large proportion of the Indian population living abroad. In this story for NPR, photographer Akash Pamarthy looks through four lenses (family, keepsakes, festivals and food) at how the immigrant community is keeping the Telugu identity and culture alive.

Where my peeps at? I had a recent experience with a fellow guy, similar to me in some ways: also around 50, born in the US, spent a LOT of time in India before 10, ESL like me.

Dude called me a Bad Indian.

Why? I was not familiar with the smell of the curry leaf.

It was so ridiculous I burst out laughing. This was some granular -ism. And the 1st time I’ve heard someone say what we know many desis think, but express in more oblique manners.

But the fucker called me a again an hour later (I don’t recall why, but it’s irrelevant), and he didn’t hide his judginess by pretending he was joking this time (he was immediately inducted into my Shitlist Hall of Fame 🏆🏆🏆).

I’m not insulted as I’ve made no effort to be a ‘good’ Indian in decades. Technically, he’s not wrong.

But he is a dick, and illustrates what’s wrong with Indian society and why I’ve shielded my kids from it.

YouTube served this up to me this morning and watching it was trippy AF! Also head-wobble inducing, I can’t help myself when I find myself agreeing with someone speaking Bengali or Hindi 😆

I am and didn’t speak English until I was 5, despite being born in the US. We spent 1/2 the year in until I was 8 and were immersed in the community when in the States.

The voice actors seemed pretty true to the Western characters, except for Peter B. Parker, whose exhaustion was ignored in favor of a happy-go-lucky dad. They changed his tired “I have a baby” to a happy “Yes, a very sweet baby!” 🤦🏽‍♂️

I want to see this in Bengali, to see the different choices they made for acting & emotions. And maybe with the captions on, because I have the vocabulary of a 10 year old kid.

This really makes me think about parents and society as a whole. I still don’t care for the societal pressures but I do understand them better.

Here's my most unexpected find so far via Ideas of India, using their search engine:

In 1934, Debendra Chandra Dasgupta wrote this 5-page article about elementary schools in Berkeley, California.

It covers BUSD's methods, budgets, and even a site visit to Longfellow School

@AshBeardguy Yo yo yo I’m into comics in general (preferably not superhero as those are mostly boring), mythology, storytelling & story structure, fantastical movies (animated & with humans, including superheroes) - and I also write & draw comics. And I’m .

@anirvan I feel I bit intimidated but I figure I’ll give it a go. I’ve kept my family at arm’s length for years due to drama, which also curtailed the community & cultural aspects like pujas, etc. There’s more to it than that, but that’s the short story.

I’m a web geek who loves comics, myth, & stories. And it would be cool to know people who can relate to the experience of being (or , et al).

I use ‘we’ when discussing either America or India 🤷🏽‍♂️
