I am a fairly opinionated person, but people request me to not be honest. I still need a place to voice my opinions, don’t I? These posts are primarily for venting out the frustration. Occasionally, I may share joyous and pleasant news, too.
Sunday Screed | TOMU has a new fan
I don’t check the stats often, but occasionally, I go down the rabbit hole, check every visitor, every comment, every spam. And today, I noticed this. A certain visitor from Pune, Maharashtra, got on my blog around 5:16 am and stayed on for about 45 minutes, reading a little over 50 posts from throughout TOMU…
Roundup | January 2026

Friday Frenzies | First of 2026
TGIF! Frenzy is absolutely justified, right? It’s Friday, the last working day. I have the weekend, followed by two days PTO. I’m super stoked. This week was crazy.
