— you both annoy the shit out of everyone surrounding you, megumi and nobara are the #1 victims
— always clinging to each other, you both have to have some sort of contact. the pdas oml
— feeding each other is a must. youd do this thing where you cross your arms together to feed each other food (this makes your 2 friends gag) or drinking from the same glass with different straws
— ridiculous pet names like nilly billy silly willy (for yuuji) or nutter butter (for you)
— always act like you are in some damn romantic music videos or kdrama. quoting movie lines all the time😭
— so many couple photos. have to try all the couple poses in the world. please spare nobara
— wallpaper, passwords and even social usernames are dedicated to each other and you both wonder how yall get hacked when your pw for everything is literally iloveyuuji69 and ynistheloml
— top commentor on each others post
— matching outfits all time. you both go to public wearing those i love my bf/gf or im his/im hers shirts
— share the same brain cells. one sec you both are climbing trees, eating mangoes and the next sec you do makeup on yuuji or film tiktoks
— speaking of tiktok you both are probably the most popular couple there. theres no couple trend yall havent tried yet. the internet is in love with you both
— writing each other love letters and putting them in yo lockers as if yall arent the only ones to do that😭
— most chaotic couple in jjk high, always pranking other students or even teachers but never each other
— the compliments never stop. you could be doing the most mundane thing and he'd go 'my boo's so talented☹️' and vice versa
— even during missions yall dont stop, yuuji cld do a particularly impressive move and youd be like 'woah thats my baby!!!' and hed go 'aww thank you snuggleboo!!' cue flying kisses. even the curses are dumbfounded
— gojo finds you both really adorable and hes often hyping yall up or joining your shenanigans (megumis worst nightmare someone save him)
— he spends his money on you two. want to go to a concert of your favs? done. a date at disneyland? done. he just wants you both to be happy and live your life fully. in return maybe you could prank nanami-
— the rare times you both arent together (most of the time its missions) are the worst for you both and everyone surrounding you. yuuji goes to sleep crying and holding your photo frame in his chest
— stay up late thinking about starting a band or baby names (when you asked megumi and nobara about starting a band with you both they refused:/ so yall decided to make your babies be your band members in the future)

You know what I'll give even a smidge of it to them because they have another white character with a black best friend because the last I can recall the only other character that had a black friend was Marie-grace. Other than that yeah it's just Isabelle with glasses but yay another character with glasses since Z.
One of Grace's two best friends was Black, Joss's cheer friend was Black, as was Isabel's tennis friend. If you wanna expand it just to POC– Isabelle's best friend was latine, Lea's best friend was indigenous Brazilian iirc, Tenney's best friend was Bangladeshi, Joss's "surf sister" was Japanese. If you were here in 2021 you remember the whole hullaballoo about Alexis's ethnic ambiguity and the dolls they used to represent her.
Is this a bad thing in general? Uh, no, definitely not, kids should be friends regardless of race, and having diversity in stories even with white protagonists is welcome. The problem comes when AG has been releasing a slew of white dolls as the main characters, shafting tf out of the main characters of color they DO have, and THEN trying to claim diversity points by giving the white girls best friends of color. The message that sends isn't "we value diversity"– cause if they did, they wouldn't shaft Claudie or Kavi or the WBU dolls. What it ends up sending is "girls of color aren't important enough to be the popular main characters, they're only here to support their white friends." I don't think AG is sending this message iNTENTIONALLY, but in their hopes of pandering to the white 1% while also claiming to be diverse, they're really just shooting themselves in the foot and showing their ass to everyone
tl;dr,

State-backed North Korean hackers have stolen $1.5bn (£1.2bn) of cryptocurrency in the largest heist in history.
Agents from Pyongyang were able to breach the systems of Dubai-based exchange Bybit to steal the digital coin Ether, according to security analysts.
The hackers stole more cryptocurrency in one attack than all the funds stolen by North Korean cyber criminals in 2024, when the rogue state’s cyber attackers made off with around $1.3bn in digital coins, according to cryptocurrency analysts Chainalysis.
The $1.5bn total eclipses the largest known bank theft of all time, when Saddam Hussein stole $1bn from the Iraqi central bank ahead of the Iraq War in 2003.
The record haul comes as Kim Jong-un, North Korea’s supreme leader, turns to elite units of computer hackers to prop up the Communist dictatorship’s failing economy.
Chainalysis said the attack served as a “stark reminder” of the advanced tactics employed by the country’s hackers. As well as technical skills, North Korean hackers are adept at what is known as “social engineering”: manipulating people to do what they want in order to pave the way for a heist.
This can involve developing relationships with targets over email and digital chats, sometimes over a period of months.
Cyber security experts believe North Korea’s notorious Lazarus Group are the masterminds behind the latest attack. The group has terrorised Western businesses for more than a decade with a series of cyber breaches that have caused billions of dollars in losses.
Elliptic, a cryptocurrency analysis business, said the hacking group was the “most sophisticated and well-resourced launderer of cryptoassets in existence”.
The group is believed to be part of North Korea’s intelligence agency, the Reconnaissance General Bureau. It has been linked to past attacks including the hack of Sony in 2014, when the group leaked private emails from executives in an attempt to block the release of the comedy film The Interview, which lampooned North Korea’s supreme leader.
Lazarus Group has also been blamed for a near-$1bn heist from a Bangladeshi bank in 2016 and the global Wannacry cyber attack, which knocked hundreds of thousands of computers offline with damaging ransomware, including NHS systems.
While Pyongyang once relied on its elite hacking cadres to conduct espionage or steal trade secrets, increasingly they have been employed as a weapon of economic warfare to bolster the coffers of the heavily sanctioned regime.
“North Korea started using cyber attacks for espionage, stealing R&D and intellectual property,” said Rafe Pilling, of the cyber security company Secureworks. “Subsequently, they have really capitalised on it as a source of revenue.”
A Soviet-style focus on science and technology has created a “whole education pipeline” for future cyber experts, said Mr Pilling. North Korean science prodigies are identified from a young age, before being pushed to compete in international maths and programming competitions.
The country’s hackers are prolific. In 2024, they made off with approximately 61pc of the $2.2bn of cryptocurrency stolen globally, according to Chainalysis. Including last week’s attack, North Korean hackers have stolen upwards of $6bn in cryptocurrency over the last decade.
The thefts offer a substantial boost to the nation’s beleaguered economy and help support its military spending, including its ballistic missile programme. North Korea’s GDP is estimated at just $28bn and it is heavily reliant on agriculture and trade with its main ally, China.
While most members of Lazarus Group are unknown, the US has issued indictments against several North Korean military figures it believes are linked to the group.
North Korea relies on multiple different hacking techniques, ranging from uncovering so-called “zero day” hacks that can break into IT using previously unknown flaws to using fake remote-working contractors to infiltrate US companies.
Cryptocurrency analysis companies including Arkham Intelligence and Elliptic identified Lazarus Group as the likely Bybit hackers. Researchers were able to trace the digital wallets that were used by the hackers to quickly launder their funds, which are recorded on the “blockchain” technology used by the cryptocurrency industry.
Some of the funds moved through wallets believed to be associated with past North Korean hacking attacks. TRM, a cyber security company, said there were “substantial overlaps observed between addresses controlled by the Bybit hackers and those linked to prior North Korean thefts”.
The North Korean hackers were able to steal the huge crypto haul through a multi-layered and long-planned attack, according to Chainalysis. Hackers gained access to Bybit’s internal systems using so-called “phishing” email, which prompted an employee to input their login details to a seemingly legitimate website that was actually compromised.
The hackers were then able to gain access to a so-called “cold wallet” – a supposedly secure cryptocurrency storage device that holds coins offline and away from the internet. When Bybit came to transfer funds from the offline wallet to its online systems, the hackers sabotaged the transfer and stole the funds.
Within minutes the hackers had fed them through a series of other wallets and digital currency exchanges, attempting to obscure their origin by trading them for other coins or passing them through trading houses with no customer checks.
The nature of the cryptocurrency industry, which is virtually unregulated, has made it a haven for cyber attackers to launder funds. Chainalysis said it had worked with exchanges to freeze $40m in funds stolen from Bybit, but far more remained unaccounted for.
North Korea’s hackers are showing no signs of slowing down. According to Chainalysis, its attackers are getting “better and faster at massive exploits”.
North Korea’s cyber prowess allows it to be a “major player even if in the real world they are highly isolated,” Mr Pilling said.
Bybit has said it has “more than enough” assets to cover its losses and insisted the hack was an “isolated incident”.

Hello! I'm writing a final Essay about Indian parallel cinema or new Indian cinema and I kinda got lost, there are so many movies and themes to explore! since the deadline is pushing me, I don't have much time to explore it deeply, i've watched Charulata and Apu's trilogy but couldn't move forward from there. (all of them mind-blowingly amazing btw) Could you please please please give me some direction on which way should i keep looking/researching or any of your favorite themes that are recurring in 50's-70's Indian "new wave" films ? anything would be really helpful. Thank you in advance, hope you have an amazing day!!
oh my god, i did not see this until now as i typically only see notifications for this blog when i'm on desktop, i'm so sorry!! i really hope this isnt too late to respond. okay so i'm no expert but just some thoughts:
so obviously its a film movement that originated in bengal, a lot of parallel cinema is bengali indian OR bangladeshi, i'm not sure if theres a specific reason you're focusing on indian parallel cinema for your essay but thats something to keep into consideration especially because it spans past the 70s well into the 80s and somewhat 90s so after the independence of bangladesh. and that does impact and put context to the narrative of many films
the themes that are recurring tend to be class consciousness and disillusionment, religious and racial discrimination, casteism, more frank portrayals of the topic of sex, marxist thought, the burden of patriarchal society and expectation, to some extent borderline nihilism in my opinion, essentially the polar opposite of bollywoods pristine glamorized and polished portrayal of life and society that borders on science fiction from how removed from reality it is. in spite of it often.
if you want an outline of some filmmakers, actors, and films that can give you a decent idea of the movement, off the top of my head:
films i can think of that will give you a decent understanding of the tone and themes of the movement at least:
mirch masala
a river called titas and cloud capped star
donkey in a brahmin village
the apu trilogy and charulata as you said as well as devi and shatranj ke khilari. (the coward is also one of my personal favorites but not a necessary watch)
mammo, mandi, and bhumika
dont cry for salim the lame, the strange fate of arvind desai
arth
rat trap
maya darpan
duvidha, nazar, uski roti
quintessential filmmakers to at least get a decently rounded understanding (in my opinion):
saeed akhtar mirza
mani kaul
satyajit ray
ritwik ghatak
shyam benegal
mrinal sen
actors whose work or work during the period of early parallel cinema to look to:
smita patil (!) (probably the most important to look into if youre interested in this movement)
shabana azmi (early work)
madhabi mukherjee
soumitra chatterjee
 naseeruddin shah (early work)
om puri (early work)
all of this is really just what came to mind immediately, i had planned on writing up a comprehensive summary of parallel cinema and what i considered essential viewing and themes and i will do that eventually, but i wanted to answer this as quickly as possible so i could easily be leaving out an insane amount of things. also i primarily used the english translations for these films unless i couldnt remember them. if youre in the usa (and maybe outside of it as well im not sure) MANY of these works or works made by these directors are on youtube or archive.org. i hope this is of some help and eventually i will post more comprehensive detail + scans of books i have about this. hope this helps someone and you have a good day!

Netflix Subscription BD: A New Era for Streaming in Bangladesh
In recent years, the global entertainment landscape has undergone a significant transformation, largely driven by the rise of streaming services. Among the various platforms that have captured the world's attention, Netflix stands out as a leader. This article delves into the specifics of Netflix Subscription BD, examining its impact on the Bangladeshi market and highlighting the role of local facilitators like Amader Cart in enhancing the streaming experience.
Tumblr media
The Rise of Netflix in Bangladesh
Netflix's global expansion strategy has been remarkably successful, and Bangladesh is no exception. With a growing middle class, increasing internet penetration, and a youthful population keen on digital entertainment, Bangladesh presents a fertile ground for streaming services. Since its launch in Bangladesh, Netflix has attracted a substantial number of subscribers, drawn by its vast library of content, including movies, TV shows, documentaries, and original productions.
Factors Driving Netflix's Popularity in Bangladesh
Content Variety: One of Netflix's biggest draws is its diverse content library. From Hollywood blockbusters and critically acclaimed TV series to niche documentaries and local films, Netflix offers something for everyone. This variety appeals to Bangladeshi audiences with varied tastes and preferences.
Original Productions: Netflix Originals, such as "Stranger Things," "The Crown," and "Money Heist," have garnered a global following. These high-quality productions attract Bangladeshi viewers looking for exclusive content that is not available on other platforms.
User-Friendly Interface: Netflix's intuitive interface, personalized recommendations, and multi-device compatibility make it a preferred choice for users seeking a seamless viewing experience.
Affordable Pricing Plans: Recognizing the price sensitivity of the Bangladeshi market, Netflix offers a range of subscription plans to cater to different budgets. This flexibility makes it easier for a broader audience to access the platform.
Challenges and Solutions in the Bangladeshi Market
Despite its popularity, Netflix faces certain challenges in Bangladesh. These include payment method limitations, competition from local streaming services, and internet connectivity issues. However, innovative solutions have emerged to address these challenges.
Payment Solutions: The Role of Amader Cart
One of the primary obstacles for Bangladeshi consumers has been the limited availability of international payment methods. Many potential subscribers do not possess credit or debit cards that are accepted for Netflix subscriptions. This is where Amader Cart comes into play.
Amader Cart is a local service provider that facilitates the purchase of Netflix subscriptions using local payment methods. By allowing payments through bKash, Rocket, and other popular mobile financial services in Bangladesh, Amader Cart has made it significantly easier for consumers to subscribe to Netflix. This convenience has been a game-changer, expanding access to Netflix for a wider audience.
Amader Cart: Bridging the Gap
Amader Cart has positioned itself as a crucial intermediary, helping to bridge the gap between Netflix and Bangladeshi consumers. By offering a hassle-free payment solution, Amader Cart ensures that users can enjoy uninterrupted streaming without worrying about payment issues. Their service is not limited to Netflix alone; they also facilitate subscriptions to other global streaming services, thereby enriching the digital entertainment ecosystem in Bangladesh.
How Amader Cart Works
Easy Subscription Process: Users visit the Amader Cart website or app, select the desired Netflix subscription plan, and choose their preferred local payment method.
Payment Confirmation: Once the payment is made, Amader Cart processes the transaction and activates the Netflix account.
Customer Support: Amader Cart provides customer support to assist with any issues related to subscriptions, ensuring a smooth user experience.
The Future of Streaming in Bangladesh
As internet infrastructure continues to improve and more people gain access to affordable smartphones and data plans, the demand for streaming services in Bangladesh is expected to grow. Netflix, with its strong brand presence and extensive content library, is well-positioned to capitalize on this growth. However, local competitors and emerging platforms will keep the market dynamic and competitive.
Impact on Local Content Production
The popularity of Netflix in Bangladesh also has implications for the local entertainment industry. The platform’s success has encouraged local filmmakers and producers to create high-quality content that can appeal to both domestic and international audiences. Netflix's interest in acquiring and producing local content can provide a significant boost to the Bangladeshi film and TV industry, fostering creativity and innovation.
Conclusion
Netflix Subscription BD represents more than just access to a streaming service; it signifies a shift in how Bangladeshis consume entertainment. The collaboration between Netflix and local facilitators like Amader Cart has democratized access to high-quality content, making it easier for people across the country to enjoy global and local productions. As the market evolves, Netflix's ability to adapt to local needs and preferences will be crucial in maintaining its leadership position. With the continued support of services like Amader Cart, the future of streaming in Bangladesh looks promising, offering endless possibilities for viewers and content creators alike.
Exploring the Netflix Subscription BD Ecosystem
To understand the full impact of Netflix Subscription BD, it’s essential to explore the broader ecosystem that supports this service in Bangladesh. This includes the role of telecommunications companies, internet service providers (ISPs), and government initiatives aimed at boosting digital infrastructure.
Telecommunications and ISPs
Telecommunications companies and ISPs play a vital role in ensuring that Netflix can reach its audience in Bangladesh. With the advent of 4G and the anticipated rollout of 5G technology, streaming high-definition content is becoming more feasible. Major ISPs in Bangladesh, such as Grameenphone, Robi, and Banglalink, are continuously upgrading their networks to provide faster and more reliable internet services, which are crucial for an optimal streaming experience.
Government Initiatives
The Bangladeshi government has been proactive in enhancing the country’s digital landscape through various initiatives. The "Digital Bangladesh" vision aims to transform Bangladesh into a technologically advanced nation by promoting digital literacy and expanding internet access. These efforts are instrumental in creating an environment where streaming services like Netflix can thrive.
Content Localization and Cultural Relevance
For Netflix to maintain its growth trajectory in Bangladesh, content localization and cultural relevance are key. Understanding the preferences of Bangladeshi viewers and curating content that resonates with them is crucial. This includes not only dubbing and subtitling international content in Bengali but also investing in original local productions.
Netflix Originals in Bangladesh
Netflix has already started exploring the potential of local content in various countries, and Bangladesh is on its radar. By partnering with local filmmakers and producers, Netflix can create original content that reflects the unique cultural and social dynamics of Bangladesh. Such initiatives not only cater to local tastes but also provide a platform for Bangladeshi stories to reach a global audience.
The Competitive Landscape
While Netflix is a dominant player in the global streaming market, it faces competition from both international and local platforms in Bangladesh. Competitors like Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and local services such as Hoichoi and Bioscope offer alternative streaming options.
Hoichoi and Bioscope
Hoichoi, for example, focuses on Bengali content, making it a popular choice among viewers looking for regional entertainment. Bioscope, another local platform, offers a mix of live TV, movies, and original web series, catering to diverse tastes. These platforms often emphasize local content, providing strong competition to Netflix.
The Role of Social Media and Influencers
Social media platforms and influencers have a significant impact on the popularity of streaming services. In Bangladesh, influencers play a crucial role in shaping consumer preferences and driving subscription growth. By leveraging social media marketing and collaborations with local influencers, Netflix can enhance its visibility and appeal to a broader audience.
Effective Social Media Strategies
Engaging Content: Creating engaging content that resonates with local audiences is essential. This includes sharing trailers, behind-the-scenes footage, and interviews with actors and creators.
Influencer Partnerships: Collaborating with popular Bangladeshi influencers and celebrities can help Netflix reach potential subscribers more effectively. Influencers can create buzz around new releases and share personal recommendations, making the service more relatable.
Interactive Campaigns: Running interactive campaigns, such as online contests and live Q&A sessions, can boost engagement and foster a sense of community among subscribers.
Conclusion: A Bright Future for Netflix in Bangladesh
Netflix Subscription BD has opened up a world of entertainment possibilities for Bangladeshi viewers. The combination of diverse content, affordable pricing, and local payment solutions provided by Amader Cart has made Netflix an accessible and attractive option for many. As the streaming landscape continues to evolve, Netflix's ability to adapt to local preferences and collaborate with key players in the ecosystem will be critical to its success.
The future of streaming in Bangladesh looks bright, with Netflix poised to play a central role in shaping the country's digital entertainment landscape. By continuing to innovate and invest in local content, Netflix can not only maintain its leadership position but also contribute to the growth and development of the Bangladeshi entertainment industry. With the support of local facilitators like Amader Cart and the ongoing improvement of digital infrastructure, the journey of Netflix in Bangladesh is set to be an exciting one, promising endless entertainment for viewers across the country.

2023 wrap-up, part 2
click here for part 1 | click here for part 3 | click here for part 4
let's talk about some of the reading I did this year! I don't read as much as I used to, and I'm constantly torn in like five different directions, because. on one hand. I am a chronic rereader. I just want to reread my favorites over and over and over and over and over and
but on the other hand, I'm a writer. and I should be reading new releases to ~keep up with the market~ (or support friends with new publications, or just because new releases look cool).
but on the OTHER other hand, my tbr is five miles long, so I really feel like I should be reading all those books that were new releases 5-10 years ago that I never got around to reading
so let's talk about one of each that I read this year
a reread
thanks to finding out about an upcoming film adaptation of Scott Westerfeld's Uglies, I reread Uglies and Pretties this year for the first time since high school! I reread the series several times back then and loved it but hadn't read it since. pleased to announce that I enjoyed it a lot despite the 15 years that had passed since my previous reading
now I gotta procure a copy of Specials, and then I guess I'll be reading Extras actually for the first time ever, because I never read that one back in the day
link to Uglies on BookShop
Tumblr media
a new release
partly as a result of being in a group of debut authors and having a lot of friends to support, I read many new releases this year! but a top new release was definitely Priyanka Taslim's The Love Match, an Austen-esque Bangladeshi YA romcom with a FANTASTIC love triangle (and I say that as someone who isn't particularly into love triangles). she really kept me guessing until the end of the book!
link to The Love Match on BookShop
Tumblr media
an older release
this was the year in which I finally read Madeline Miller's The Song of Achilles. it made all my friends cry, even the ones who don't normally cry at books. it did not make me cry. I found it deeply satisfying despite being so soft that I once sent @victoriacbooks in ahead of me to make sure a book did not end sadly before I read it. not sure what that's about, but the point is, I enjoyed this book even though I did not cry lmao
link to The Song of Achilles on BookShop
Tumblr media
upcoming books I'm looking forward to
(book titles link to the books' preorder pages)
Kamilah Cole's So Let Them Burn (YA fantasy)
Mo Netz's The Lumbering Giants of Windy Pines (MG fantasy)
Gabriella Buba's Saints of Storm & Sorrow (adult fantasy)
Trinity Nguyen's A Banh Mi for Two (YA romance)

20, 23 for the movie asks
20. A movie you think looks beautiful
There r plenty of movies I think look really beautiful but but I'm gonna go with Tasher Desh / Land of Cards directed by Qaushiq Mukherjee, it's a Bangladeshi film and it's so beautiful and so so odd I really loved watching it. The costume design and cinematography and storytelling is all so strange and on the edge I really think if you're into films you should watch it. It's on Netflix :3
23. An animated movie you like
The Spielberg Tintin movie has a big special place in my heart <3
