The band just posted that it’s the 15 year anniversary of this album! I discovered it later when I got into Copeland and States and definitely had some flashbacks when listening to the amazing bridge in this song again.

After all these years this song still is a banger and yes stans did exist back in 2009 😅 no offence to the other members of States but I did stan Mindy White pretty hard and this was my scene era and awfully slept on DGD and Emarosa. Still… I’m ahem… looking awful anxious.

watching the office and having heard a few of the office ladies podcast eps and knowing that they fully acknowledge that kelly is Only Like That because mindy kaling made her into her self insert (they even have an on going joke at the beginning of the podcast about 'kelly's gone Full Mindy' to track when kelly stops being kelly from when she was first introduced to what she was at the end of the show) and its like. so fucking horrible 😭 like yeah shes funny in theory as a fictional character but Knowing the person behind her is also Like That so its not even an Act is so like. well okay. this isnt as funny to me anymore
#txt#the office#having that one episode where pam is DESPERATE to snap kelly out of her obsession w ryans toxic white ass and date the brown pediatrician >#and kelly gives in. but then later on fully abandons him at the last minute w ryan its so 😭 like thats just real life thats mindy kaling#i still giggle at her scenes sure im not devoid of emotion but its just that. you know#i laugh at the stupidest things. its not that hard#putting this in the office tag bc i want it in My Tag to refer back to idk but making it non rebloggable bc. well

I've never seen anything written by Mindy Kaling or any show she's acted in, so when I heard the new Velma shos was going to feature Velma as a South Asian, I was excited. That was until all of the terrible things in the show and now learned of how Mindy Kaling only ever writes South Asian women as loser characters with all the same insecurities being brought up again and again, as well as her weird obsession with white men. Enough Mindy, enough with your self inserts, enough with writing the loser brown girl with the "hairy gorilla arms" that only ever takes me back to my own insecurities, enough with passing off your terrible representation as good representation just because it's representation.
#wow I just can't wait till people see how velma's written in that show and think it's okay to keep these ideas and stereotypes#fun fact: I'm extremely insecure about my own body hair. I don't wear shorts because it's against my religion but I still shave my legs#I hated knowing that when ppl in school would make fun of girls with hairy legs I would be included in that category#for a south asian woman to constantly make shows where the brown character's born-with traits are always the butt of the joke#always brought up#is so demoralizing#I thought we moved past this#it's so clear how Mindy Kaling plays for the white audience#because we south asians are tired#we're tired of it and we're tired of her#anyways that's my little rant lol#velma#velma hbo max#mindy kaling

Fictober 2023: Day 4: “Do you even know what this means?” - Sam isn't as alone as she thinks she is. Featuring Mindy. Fandom: Scream Rating: T Warnings: None.
➖
Sam frowns at her laptop screen, confused. It doesn’t make any sense. Why are there so many branches on this tree? Eugh, she knew doing this genetics thing was a mistake. The last thing she should be doing is putting her DNA out there for anyone to trace back to her. All it takes is one more vindictive cop and then…
Curse Tara’s heartbreakingly effective sad expression. She’s mastered the disappointed “oh, okay then” too. Sam may have taught her sister how to use all her skills to her advantage, but that didn’t mean she should get to use them against her!
Little shit.
“I don’t know what I’m looking at,” she declares, leaning back on the couch with a sigh.
Tara abandons her phone to lean over and tilt the laptop toward her. Sam watches as her sister’s face goes from exasperated – a common expression when Sam tries to interact with technology – to confused.
She almost regrets speaking up when Tara begins to frown. Sam hates seeing her frown. The “this doesn’t make any sense” she mutters under her breath is more than a little vindicating at least.
Tara slides the computer into her own lap to analyse the screen. Unfortunately, her appropriation of the device does not go unnoticed by Mindy, who was supposed to be cleaning up the mess she had made in their kitchen.
If Sam catches anyone doing another 4am baking session in a house they don’t even live in, they’re gonna catch her hands instead. Or a knife, as someone recently – almost fatally – learnt for herself.
“Come on now,” Mindy jeers, “how hard can it be?”
Mindy of course, being the one who convinced Tara, who convinced Sam, that they should send off their very private DNA to this big and famous ancestry company. Oh it’ll be interesting, she said. You’ll get to see where you come from, she said. You'll be able to connect with anyone else in your family tree who’s done it too, she said. As if that one was something appealing.
Unfortunately, Tara’s whispered confession of wanting to know whether their father had another family out there was damning to Sam’s ability to say no. Having basically grown up without any family other than each other, Tara’s desires were all too understandable.
But Sam will get her own back on Mindy for suggesting this, mark her words.
“Are you discovering that your mom isn’t actually your mom? Cause that would make so much sense to be honest, ‘cause I’ve said it before, that lady far too white to be birthing two Latinas like yourselves.”
Tara’s eyes dart from the screen to meet Sam’s as they share a look they’ve come to master over the past year. Disbelief, amusement, a silently screamed are they serious? passing between them.
Mindy doesn’t notice it.
“I mean, how do two basically white people end up making Sam? Answer me that!” she continues, leaning her arms against the back of the couch. “Heck, I bet the only Mexican in your mom was your da-“
“OH MY GOD MINDY!” “WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT?”
“What, am I wrong?”
Sam groans into her hands while Tara, who has years of experience learning to overcome Mindy’s colourfully unfiltered mouth, silently holds the laptop up for her to see.
There’s a moment of silence as Mindy takes in the information, before she claps her hands excitedly.
“Do you even know what this means?” she exclaims, bouncing on her feet, both hands slapping down on the couch.
Mindy doesn’t wait for a response before she barrels ahead, unable to keep it in for even a second longer.
“It means ho~o~oly shit Sam, your dad was a slut!”
Sam wishes she never had to hear those words. She wishes she’d never done the stupid swab test.
She snatches the laptop back and slams the lid shut without even a second glance at the contents.
It was hard enough to learn that Tara was her half-sister. The knowledge that she has 12 other half-siblings out there burns in the back of her throat.
She has a family; she doesn’t need more.
What was she thinking.

Seeing Devi end up with Ben didn't surprise me, because this is M*ndy K*ling's formula (no matter how much we all detest it) but still a little disappointing. Like they literally had to erase Paxton's arc just to elevate Ben, like that is sad. But what's even more egregious is the way some Benvi fans talk about Paxton, and Darren, is disgusting. Like calling them predators and a bunch of other names just to elevate your ship is weird behavior, especially acting this way towards a MOC and how some conversations can reach dangerous territory. Like some of these people need to stop. I may not like Ben as a character, nor ship him with Devi (his behavior towards her is atrocious) but you would not catch me acting the way I see some of them act towards these actors. Like, stop.
#nhie#nhie spoilers#nhie s4#paxton hall yoshida#devi vishwakumar#ben gross#devi sweetie im so sorry you deserved better#mindy stop putting your woc with mediocre white men! pls#and to iterate im not saying that there arent some daxton shippers who treat ben horribly in fandom [e.g. antisemitic comments]#nor am i saying that i hate ben [i wish the show gave him more development and plot to work with like how they did devi & paxton separately#but that doesnt mean i still cant point out some of the things hes done that dont sit right with me#tho tbh i dont necessarily have much faith in mindy kaling when it comes to ben's story anyway bc there are some problems

Every year I challenge myself to read outside of my comfort zone and in recent years that’s meant a distinct lack of five star reads. This year’s no different as I only reached fifteen, but looking back on it not all of my top ten ended up being five star reads. Sometimes it’s a book that was almost perfect and stuck with me anyway. Sometimes it had major flaws, but meant so much to me I have to love it anyway. I don’t believe and going back and changing my snap-decision ratings because I clearly felt them at one point, but I’ll let this list be more reflective of how I feel now.
So, without further ado:
My Top 10 Best Reads of 2022
10. Dreams Lie Beneath by Rebecca Ross
- My entire review on Goodreads for this is “no notes” and I feel like that says more than I ever could. In Azenor, nightmares come to life on the full moon. Clementine and her father are there to fight them, but when they’re ousted from their village, Clementine seeks revenge. I adored the characters and their choices and the world-building. Honestly, no notes.
9. Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson
- Warbreaker is not my favorite Sanderson book, but it’s still a Sanderson book. Which makes it very good. Warbreaker follows two princesses, the God King one of them must marry (and all the politics that come with that), a bored lesser god playing detective, and an immortal with loads of baggage (and a talking sword). I think this book is so interesting to talk about because it presents so many sides to a couple different arguments, though I’m partial to the conversation this book has about religion. Sanderson delves into religious conversations often (in a good way), but I think it shines best in Warbreaker. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the arguments I got to have after it.
8. The Golden Enclaves by Naomi Novik
- The Golden Enclaves is the third and final book in Novik’s Scholomance series so I’m not going to give much plot away. Basically there’s a magic system using language, a bunch of monsters attempting to eat children, and a school built to stop that from happening built in the void becoming a bit of a gauntlet. I think this was a fantastic end to the series and it re-contextualized everything I thought I know in the best way. I wanted to turn around and reread the whole thing again, which is high praise from me as I’ve only felt that way once before.
7. House of Leaves by Mark Z Danielewski
- Told in nesting story lines, House of Leaves is about an aspiring tattoo artist named Johnny Truant and a dead blind man named Zámpano and a prize-winning, globe-trotting photographer named Will Navidson. Or maybe just one of them. Or maybe none of them. On the surface it’s about Navidson moving into a house with his family, documenting it on film because he doesn’t know how to stop working, and then the book quickly spirals into varying levels of insanity. This book is written in a way that is meant to make you feel crazy. It’s a pure joy to dig into, but it’s definitely not for everyone. There are passages that must be read in a mirror, a letter in the references that needs to be decoded, hidden messages in footnote markers, and a chapter that is itself truly a labyrinth. It’s so easy to understand now how people become obsessed with it. I could talk about it for hours, honestly.
6. Babel by RF Kuang
- Babel follows Robin Swift, orphaned in Canton and whisked away to London to be properly raised and trained to go to Oxford’s Royal Institute of Translation. The magic system and history this book gives us is such a beautiful way to get across Kuang’s messages. I genuinely thought this was going to be my book of the year, but that drag in the middle I kept trying to forget about definitely still exists. It’s an incredibly ambitious book, there’s bound to be flaws. In my heart it still wins, but rationally, there were books I enjoyed more. Just know that I utterly adored everything about this, except some of the pacing.
5. The Female of the Species by Mindy McGinnis
- I’m not sure how to explain this book outside of just the fact that it’s brutal. Told through the perspectives of three very different characters, this book explores rape culture and sexual assault and does so unflinchingly. Seriously, don’t read this book unless you know you can handle that because I truly mean BRUTAL when I say it. This book left a mark and it fully intended to. The conversation The Female of the Species provided was met with equally strong characters, grim humor, and a fantastically tight plot line. Just all around a great, dark read.
4. Hell Followed With Us by Andrew Joseph White
- Making this list is forcing me to recognize how often the books I love are just incredibly harsh, brutal things. Hell Followed with Us is about a near dystopian/apocalyptic future where a fundamentalist cult infects people with bio weapons and a ragtag group of young survivors living out of an old LGBTQ+ Center attempt to fight back. It follows an insanely diverse set of characters and tells a story filled with so much rage and religious abuse that it genuinely had me gasping for air at times. This book has a decently long list of trigger warnings, including body horror and religious themes, but my god is it so underrated and worth the read. There are lines in this book that I’m still thinking about and I read it all the way back in July.
3. Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree
- And now a swift departure from dark, heavy books. I didn’t know what to expect from this book when it’s tagline boasted low to no stakes. I was worried I’d be bored or that the editing would lack in ways I’ve been seeing more and more in my latest book choices. Instead I got the most adorable fantasy about Viv, who just wants to settle down into something softer. She’s spent years adventuring and doing questionable and violent things, but things don’t have to stay what they started as. She throws all of herself into opening a cafe in a city that’s never even heard of coffee and struggles with that while picking up the most beautiful found family I’ve read in a while. Don’t be put off by the lowness of the stakes, this book feels like a warm cup of coffee, but it has its drama too. This book means so much more to me than I went in expecting and it’s not often I read a book that I’m genuinely grateful to have read.
2. Letters to a Young Poet by Ranier Maria Rilke
- I’ve loved Rilke’s poetry for a long time and so this collection of letters has been on my TBR for years. I should have read it sooner. These letters provide pages and pages of advice, less about poetry and more about life, and they do it so beautifully. What gets me about these letters, though, is their context. Rilke is taking time to send them to a young man he doesn’t know who’s begging him for advice when Rilke himself has barely made it out of his own woods. These are correspondences between two young men, just steps away from each other in their walks of life, both still looking for clarity. They’re beautiful words I know I’ll read again and again. The annotating I did and will continue to do with this book is insane.
Honorable Mentions
1. Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton
- A slow build into utter chaos that made me want to read more of Crichton’s brand of science fiction.
2. You’d Be Home By Now by Kathleen Glasgow
- A beautiful and heartbreaking exploration of the opioid epidemic. Another great book from Glasgow.
3. Nemesis Games by James SA Corey
- Easily my favorite in this series (so far). The stakes were so high, I loved every perspective, and for the first time I wasn’t questioning plot choices.
4. And Every Morning the Walk Home Gets Longer and Longer by Fredrik Backman
- Short and sweet, made me cry in under 100 pages. It reminded me so much of Saturn by Sleeping at Last.
And last, but not least, #1:
What Beauty There Is by Cory Anderson
- The seventh book I read this year (out of 153), this criminally underrated masterpiece still has my whole damn heart. It’s beautiful, thoughtfully written, and just absolutely, brutally violent. What Beauty There Is follows two teenagers with a lot on their plates as they struggle to make decisions that affect lives, not just their own. Jack has to take care of his younger brother now that his mother’s gone and plans to track down the drug money that sent his father to prison. Ava’s been taught to trust no one and lives a life of isolation with no control until her father goes after the same drug money Jack is desperate to find. They both have to make very tough choices on what to do and who to trust. This book hurts. It promises at the beginning that things will only get worse, but watching it all unravel filled me with so much anxiety and dread and hope that I’m quite certain this book will haunt me for years to come.
