Tiny. Bootstrapped. Slightly terrified. But we’ve got the titles you won’t find on Netflix.

These are some film photos I've shot at recent weddings. Trying to make this a regular thing, so if you'd like a few film photos in addition to the regular digital - up to a roll a day - at your wedding, you could hire me! Please retweet to spread the word? Thank you!

If you're in India and love reading about..well, everything and anything -- this book is for you, I promise. Pre-order a copy. Pre-order another for your partner. Pre-order several and hand them out like candy. Pre-order link in the next tweet because of Elon's algorithm.

Samanth publishes a book this week yet does not acknowledge that I wrote a piece for @thejuggernaut on this same topic just last month where is justice I will attend his launch at BIC to demand credit and you should too. Buy the book and say "shame!" when he signs it.
The India edition of my book is the best yet: all of "Web" PLUS more than a dozen of my long essays, and such a warm foreword by @mukulkesavan. Come to @bicblr on the 13th for its launch! @Aakar__Patel, Sharda and I will swap stories about being journalists. RSVP on BIC's site.

Just a husband and wife. Pati pat knee. Nothing to see here.
I have never in my entire life of reluctant heterosexuality had a man slap my knee like that. You can’t convince me these people know each other’s coffee orders let alone have been intimate together.🥴

For the @NewYorker, I wrote about “Snow,” a volume of haunting photos on Kashmir by Sohrab Hura. Sohrab shot these images between 2015 and 2019, always putting off what he thought was the inevitable: the work of capturing the Indian armed forces’ repression in Kashmir... 🧵

Google is an AI company that also makes phones, which is why the Pixel 10 is the way it is, and why I have for the first time started to consider whether I should just get an iPhone myself. For the details do read this review for @newslaundry and RETWEET! newslaundry.com/2025/11/15/p…

A gorgeous 15th anniversary edition of "Following Fish" now on sale in India, in time to be gifted for the holidays. With a new prologue (that laments the passage of time and how old I've gotten, because this came out in 2010 but feels like yesterday). amazon.in/gp/aw/d/0143064479

Has anyone lost their dog in the Central Bangalore/Cooke Town/Frazer Town/Banaswadi area? Neighbours found him struggling on the street yesterday and he is clearly someone's pet, anxious to find his way back home. Please RT for reach!

On Saturday evening, someone hit and ran over this sweet boy’s brother and killed him. He’s now up for adoption and looking for a home. He’s very well adjusted, already knows commands, is fully vaccinated and leash friendly, and loves adults and kids alike. #Bengaluru

I've just done a long-term review of the Pixel 9a for @newslaundry. On the plus side it has the best camera in its price class. On the (substantial) minus side....you'll have to read the review to find out. Please RT! - newslaundry.com/2025/07/23/p…

💰Slovakia's latest scandal: PM Robert Fico vanished after his Moscow trip, but his social media video blaming Ukraine for halting Russian gas helped reveal his location—a €5,740/night luxury suite at Capella Hotel Hanoi, Vietnam. For context, his monthly salary is €11,200. 1/3
