  • Laugh lines, it’s fine.

    If you had told me 10 years ago that I would spend my days laughing uncontrollably more times than I could count, I would have laughed at you.

    Because what a joke that would have sounded like to ever-upset me back then.

    So imagine my surprise when the first lines I got on my face from age were nasolabial folds — laugh lines.

    I was expecting something around the eyes from crying so much in life.

    But, it’s a no to botox and fillers (not that I think it is wrong or judge anyone who gets those — everyone gets to choose what they like).

    I just think wrinkles and lines are special. Like tattoos, they tell a story of how (well) you’ve lived. And if laugh lines are my first, I’m truly blessed.

    It is my honour to wear it like a medal. Battle scars can step aside. 

    Kthxbyegn!!!

  • What is this name!

    Random image ✅️⬆️ Random Caption ✅️➡️ So, so you think you can tell heaven from hell?

    Anyone who really knows me knows that I have a thing for names.

    When I was starting this site 10min ago (okay maybe 30 by the time I finished writing this), the blog name just appeared in my head out of nowhere — which, honestly, is how most important things in my life tend to happen.

    For those who aren’t Tamil-speaking, unmaireally just means true (உண்மை), really. It also has another meaning (in spoken Tamil) when read very quickly — which is quite the opposite of true, really.

    Anyway, I decided to start this blog because a friend told me I should write about what was going on at work and bothering us.

    While the statement was made in jest, it was quite insightful and inspiring. Lol.

    But, I will not be writing about work now! I am having fun with this blogging activity, feeling like I’m 25 again.

    Okay, Ground Rules (for me, obviously):

    No AI. Why blog if I am going to be pasting thoughts and writings from an intelligence that isn’t even real? Lame.

    No formalities, no perfection-obsession. Screw the perfect grammar, perfect English, perfect anything. If you want to read something properly written, go buy a book. (Author Recommendation: Ernest Hemingway)

    No identity revelations. I suppose, only the people who know me will have this blog URL in the beginning. So, that’s that.

    Okay time check: 2am. This means, igtgkthxbyegn
