Hello!
Welcome to my Substack.
Make yourself comfy, but take your shoes off.
A little bit about me:
My name is Jimy. I’m a writer, and these days I hate sitting down to write. So I’ve decided to start a Substack, essentially to write even more than I have to in the hopes that this thing I hate will turn into something I love. I’m glad you’re here with me on this journey.
This is the first issue/newsletter/stack (?) and it’s already a short one, because all I can think about is:
How America will either make a Black & South Asian woman the president of the United States or it will be the end of this country as we know it, but either way we will always be funding wars around the globe.
Anyway, vote.
As we all await the fate of democracy, here’s what I’m…
Eating: Pizza from Triple Beam in Los Angeles. The roasted fennel & sausage slice is a must-have.
Questioning: We should be wearing sunscreen all the time, even indoors? I promise I’m not asking this in a “I don’t trust big sunscreen/RFK Jr.” kind of way.
Loving: Sex in the City. I’m watching it for the first time ever after having watched all of And Just Like That. When I was younger, I thought Charlotte was the voice of reason, but now I realize it’s definitely Samantha.
Hating: Brands glomming onto Diwali. Like, okay, thank you for finally recognizing Diwali, but it’s still not influencing me to purchase your shitty cookware that will crumble at the mere sight of turmeric.
That’s it for this issue.
Do I love writing yet? No.
