No blog material

 My google of “why self sabotage” gave one of the reasons as anger. Aha! I am not blogging enough God posts.  See, we all get angry on so many people, situations and things. For which we can’t talk, protest or do anything at all.  So we need someone we can make fun of, but which should be victimless crime. No one should be hurt. Because after all, we being good people, don’t hurt others.  So who will we blog on? On God of course. Because he doesn’t protest, nor ban you from air travel.  So I used to blog on and on about God, chiding him, complaining about him, to him. In my own confused way. Those were good old days.  But now I dare not blog on him. Because he has got super strong and quite vocal people on his side now. Whether he complains to them about me and my blogs is not very clear. But if I dare say one word disrespectful of their God, his supporters will make sure that I suffer  endlessly.  So I can’t blog on God, I can’t blog on road, as I only see road from my windows. Where

Not much to say

 I am not a very strong minded person. One minute I will I am surrounded by apps, reminders and even thoughts about how to (not be a self centered narcissist  moron) be a better person. And then there will be light fluttering of a butterfly or equally trivial incident and I am back to self loathing, self flagellating person, eating my worries away -which is cyclic as overeating is also one of my worries. Now as far as the outer world is concerned - that is not in good shape either. We are ruling by the rulers - well, rulers we deserve. Who have a single point of focus like Arjun. What is their focus depends on whether you are deshabhakta or a traitor.  And I blame this situation on the wide knowledge we all obtain from social media.   One youtuber (again social media source) was saying instead of taking tough measures to improve economy, petrol and diesel prices are being hiked. Because this hike largely affects the middle class, who are staunch supporters of current government.  And t

The BlackList

 Elizabeth is FBI agent - smart, brave and good looking. She has a loving husband, planning to a adapt a child and moves to a new department in FBI. An extra ordinary criminal Reddington who was never caught but is wanted in many cases, wants to help FBI to catch a "blacklist" of other criminals - but he is willing to interact only with Elizabeth. He has answer many crimes and seems to know every who and who in the criminal circle. He promptly helps FBI catch many of them.  But he keeps telling Lizzy - as he calls her - that her husband is plotting against her. But how ridiculous? Tom - the husband is a simple, sweet school teacher, who is accommodating of  Elizabeth's super busy schedule and her absence in most social functions.  So Red keeps helping FBI catch many criminals- even those whose existence is unknown to FBI. But  his methods are questionable. Ok. You can watch one or two seasons if you’re into crime thrillers 

The not so good place

 Chitragupta or Lucifer or whatever you want to call, who is in charge of torturing us in hell, comes up with a devious plan. Instead of boiling you in hot oil or burning you, or pulling your nails, or making you walk thousands of kilometers on foot,  he thinks emotional torture is way more "original". His name is actually Micheal and he makes people believe that they are in heaven - or good place. But wrongfully so. Because people are mortal and definitely are not saints. So they should have been in Hell - bad place or at least medium place. But they are in Good place. Due to this clerical error, bad things happen in the neighborhood - a rain of trash falling down from the sky, the floor sinking down into a large pit etc etc. They always coincide with these wrongfully placed people uttering a bad word or two. So these people who are surrounded by such saint-ish people, but themselves not so good, start feeling miserable. Pure guilt and shame. Really ingenious method.  That i

Fringe

Bio-weapons are real. China is the real enemy. And we are all surrounded by tech savvy criminals that we will not know whether to be in awe for their genius or be terrified about our future. There are people who emit Electrical signals strong enough to crash the elevators. There are others who send radiations which will make people explode. And then it got more interesting. There is a man who is stuck in the middle of a strong door - a steel door of a bank. And the metal is not even cut anywhere. Yes, I am watching way too much of Netflix and Amazon prime video.  This particular series is called Fringe - is a sci-fi thriller with similar stories. The protagonist  is an FBI agent who is super honest and wants to save everyone and her country. She is assisted by an addled mad genius - who was in a mental asylum for 17 years. And all the cases lead to a evil giant corporation.
