Broke my foot and instantly started a Substack to rant and write about films and all. The most recent one is about Homebound (2025). Give it a read and send a rant in return if you want. (Anyone else writing a Substack for reading? Asking for myself) aroundberlin.substack.com/p/film-homeb...

Is there anything as soul-searing as LinkedIn? Curious because the reason why it used to be "lame" back in the day is also why people are publishing entire essays about their skill certificates, work anniversaries, and how-to uses of AI.

Someone needs to write about the evolution of South Asian characters on American screen and how we have gone from Appu to the most bestest imagination of an Indian man ever—a literal white man in Mindy Kaling's A Nice Indian Boy

Bridgerton has made/inspired (?) more undergrad papers about the 19th century, madness and George III than anything else... (and it is both a gift and a curse)

If I had another lifetime's worth of time, I would simply become a radical library activist/archivist. I would spend all of my time asking for more funding for the only place in a city where you can read/learn/borrow art/books/things for free. Or maybe I could still be this person 🤔

Taking film photographs have been my biggest investment the last few months. But sometimes, watching the early light of Galicia trickle into the grainy yellowness of a morning is really worth it.

Plants in my home. (I am not a plant person at all due to the loads of bad memories related to a plant person in my life who I do not get along with. But embracing plants and their growth in my everyday life has made me see myself differently. I like this part of getting older)

Project alert: I've been working at an online/hybrid Reading Group project at @gapsnet.bsky.social for a while so that (ECR) academics can read, work, and collaborate with each other. Feel free to drop in or send the link to a friend who might want to join! Thank you :) g-a-p-s.net/reading-grou...

My peak academic behaviour is that I track the passing of time by extending library loans and marvelling at the speed of time every month. RIP my summer reading list

Does anyone write online anymore? I am trying to find ways of making myself commit to things by writing online. Most of all, I want to read other humanities scholars who are also documenting their work online, in a slow manner. Here's to starting over. www.priyamgoswami.com/an-annual-up...

Happy to report that I survived my Thesis Offence™ with loads of caffeine and good wishes. Colleagues from the department baked a cake (!) and got some Sekt that we drank before drinking more beer and talking about the mess that is academia and the revolutionary student politics at Jabalia Institute
