  • An admirable sentiment — the whole thread is worth reading.

    The trouble for most people would be differentiating between the trappings of patriotism and Sinhala supremacism given that those things have been conflated for so long. Hopefully, we do get there … https://t.co/v7KI07ejJt 17:59:57

  • Yesterday @ChayuDamsinghe tweeted a 🧵 that's well worth reading – first tweet in thread below.

    On reading his thread, what occurred to me was that the #GoHomeGota protest at #GotaGoGama could very well be seen as elitist — it certainly will be portrayed as such by some… /1 https://t.co/BSCk5VCgs1 08:35:31

  • Not sure that I'm in agreement with the letter to Limini that I've seen online and talked about elsewhere. I don't know if there are multiple letters, but the one I saw seemed a bit too personal and vitriolic. Is Limini the person you want to concentrate on at this point? 08:38:00

  • I'm seeing "they are weakening the protest", or, "singing/book reading is not going to help the cause" etc. on Twitter here and there …

    There's a bit to unpack here 🙂 /1 10:24:19

  • Years ago, during the war years in Sri Lanka, I accidentally participated in one of those workshops set up by foreign organizations to help us find a resolution … or something.

    As I watch the protests in SL with pride, I remember something I learnt at the workshop. /1 09:03:39

  • Maybe what we need is #GotaGoGama to spread to the rest of the island given the initiatives already launched there?

    Library, plastic recycling, waste management — they apparently are doing a better job at GotaGoGama than the government is doing … even though that’s a low bar 😛 https://t.co/oeQxkGKOfR 13:01:08

  • This thread perfectly summarizes how I feel at the moment so that I don’t have to — I’m hopeful that maybe Sri Lankans (do they exist?) will finally emerge and prove me wrong, but cynically afraid that no “real change” will occur once all is said and done 😞 https://t.co/N8HazVugu2 08:11:40

  • A few days back, I got the itch to start writing again. I hadn't written in a while and so I was happy to have characters cavorting in my mind and simply begging to be written about …

    I spoke to my wife about it and she wanted to write something too — we were eager to start/1 17:04:01

  • “Spider-Man: No Way Home” is a totally pointless and rather stupid storyline which wouldn’t have happened if Peter could use a smidgen of his vaunted brain … All of that storyline is mostly (totally?) avoidable.

    Are the Marvel movies getting dumber? Or am I just getting tired? 04:57:30

  • I played WordSnipe and guessed Wordle #236 in 4 steps within 3m 33s. How did you do today?

  • Is the Apple Watch (indirectly) racist? 😛 I have darker skin than my wife and had issues with the Apple Watch, whereas my wife who has lighter skin has no issues.

    I developed a painful bump on my arm right under the Watch and had to stop wearing for a week for it to go away … 19:03:57
