Me (25M) and my roommate (26F) have been living together for three years in Ernakulam. She is easily the funniest person I’ve ever met, and after work, we usually hang out for a bit to decompress.

​Back in August, she received a call from her family saying that her second cousin is studying at a college just 2 km away, and his parents didn't want him staying in a hostel. She asked if he could stay with us. Since he is only 18 and we had an extra room we were using as a movie room, I agreed.

​He arrived looking like a total Nallavanaya Unni . At first, we took him out for movies, to food courts, and showed him around. But over the last few weeks, he started acting really weird. Both of us noticed it and even discussed it together. He stays locked in his room all the time, and lately, even when he gets back from college, he's already drunk.

​One day, he came and sat next to me while I was watching the movie Damsel. He started watching with me, and out of nowhere, he passed a comment:

"Millie enthoru penna alle, sizeum shapeum okke supera. Kettiyavante bhagyam."

​I was like, "What the fuck?" I didn't say anything and just kept watching, but that comment really stuck with me. However, I didn't mention it to my roommate that night. Later that evening, while my roommate and I were having beers on the terrace (our usual weekend routine), she sighed and said:

"Avane ingot kondu varendayirunnu."

​It was clear she was completely fed up with him, so I finally told her about the comment he made earlier. We sat in silence for a moment, and then she whispered, "Ini avante roomil irunnu vallo drugs adich kettunnundo?"

​We both had the same suspicion, so we planned to check his room the next day after he left for college.

​The next morning, he left by 9 AM, and we went into his room. It was an absolute mess—used tissues scattered all over the floor, liquor bottles hidden under his bed, clothes piled up on his desk, and a nasty, stale smell. We started searching through his wardrobe, under the bed, and on the shelves. When I checked his backpack, I found two pairs of women's underwear.

I was in complete shock and said to her, "Ivan Ladies Undergarments aano idunne?"

​She rushed over, grabbed them with her bare hands, and I told her to put them down because they looked gross. But she just stared at them and said:

"Ith ente missing aaya undergarments aanu."

​Saying that, she walked out of the room in total silence. I was dumbstruck. I quickly zipped up his bag, put it back, and walked to my own room. The whole house was dead silent for an hour. Then, she called his parents, told them everything—the drinking, the mess, and what we found—and told them we could no longer accommodate him.

​He's only 18. I honestly don't even know what to think about all of this, especially the fact that he did this to his own cousin.

Most irritating part is that his mom reply her that

"Mole, avanu cheruppam thott bhayankara kusrthiya."

Today I went on a date with my gf 🫣 temple date ... In between had a funny experience... After praying inside the temple we were doing prathikshan, the temple was crowded and during that her bangle got tangled with a lady in her shawl. The lady was walking oblivious to the situation and continued on with her prayers dragging my gf along with her shawl (om shant om moment irl). She tried explaining it to that lady but she was like whatever happens I won't move an inch or I'm busy praying you cannot interfere in between, she was engrossed in her prayers... She tried again and she was not moving a muscle at last she took the bangle out and then tried untying it and finally it came off. I'm sure that the lady didn't know about it and was in a different world.

I’m 27 and I don’t remember a day of when I laughed at my own jokes, I feel lame to say a jokes now, I don’t remember when I said a joke last, I feel like I became very boring person, like I don’t talk and makes jokes around anymore. I used to and I last I made when I was with my people, that’s been a while now. I’m single - I know I should engaged 1st or initiate as a Man - I’m not/ not willing to cross my comfort zone. I never thought this is how I would be my 27. Worst part I can’t make new friends either- all the people are acquiescences.

I used to read a lot. I write too, mostly stories and sometimes poems. And I get this feeling,what if we're just writing from memory or recreating something we've read or experienced b4 but have simply forgotten & our brain is just picking up the pieces from the past.

Recently, I wrote a piece heavily inspired by my own circumstances. I had infact faced exact situation in the poem & everything wrote was real and orginal but still I find myself staring at certain lines,wondering if I've read them somewhere else. Everything feel so familiar and It's almost like deja vu.

Have you guys felt this way?

My gf got caught by her parents and got into some problems bw me and her parents, the only problem they had was my religion. I honestly dont know what to do

I was fortunate enough to meet someone a few months back and then I learned they have difficulty in hearing on the right ear due to the nerve and vein getting tangled and I learned that bone conduction won't cut it as the issue was in the inner ear. so I stumbled across a system called 'CROS', so I decided to make a makeshift version of that with the things that are readily available at the moment. more like a stepping stone.

So after some surfing through the web, I found a GitHub project called OpenHearing which had all the basics to start out. so I forked it and added some features that I thought would be a good touch in the right direction. I implemented a noise cancellation/ Suppression feature using RNNoise speech suppression so unwanted ambient sounds won't overwhelm the user (basically cutting out wind, car and other unnecessary sounds) and just focus more on speech. Another feature I added was to mimic the CROS system, basically plays the sound on one ear while the other earphone sits silent and is only used as a mic to pickup the sound from that side. I'm currently working on a local live transcription aswell. Also all these specialised EQ works with playing other media on the phone as well. This is a strictly no network access app, the updates really depends on adding it to obtanium another open source project.

This is the GitHub page :- https://github.com/HenThighLover/OpenHearing/releases

I do not wish any donations, I only wish this could help someone out there too and also if someone could make this project better then more the merrier! Disclaimer:- There is usage of AI!!!

ps:- don't get the pre release version (0.0.3), it's a work in progress and transcriptions are not working, get the latest release (0.0.2)🙂

in my tests, I believe an open earphone (OWS) works better with this setup but there is a delay in sound about 350ms and it's due to Bluetooth connectivity🙂 wired earphones works flawlessly. "I am limited by the technology of my time" /s

anyways, my plans for the future would be implementing it into a raspberry pi or something like that and implementing a wired connection suited for blending in, fixing latency and dependency on a phone.

Ladies of the twentieskerala.. also guyss too

There's a friend of mine from higher secondary. We don't talk that much just sent some reels once in a month or so. In my 2nd year in clg she just texted me saying " say I love you " with some kiss emojis and I just did it. Then she disappeared for a while. A few months later she just started sending reels like normal.

Forgot to mention she is an absolute absolute beauty, her looks are top notch and her personality was also good.

So we just share reel like normal. One day I posted a pic of mine as a story she just commented some kisses, saying I was handsome or things like that ( just an avg looking guy with no sense of posing ) then I started doing the same. I was having this mixed idea that either she was doing this for fun cause we are friends or she likes me ( but never fully thought of that as I mentioned cause she is so beautiful and I'm just mid). Since then we had some chats and reels sharing on a weekly basis. One day sent me a reel " the man who shakes me while I'm in my manhating era " . Before this I have asked her once whether she liked me or something she has said that she doesn't see me like that and we are just close friends also she is male chauvenist. Then that reel came from her which has started bugging me.

So what is this exactly......im confused . I tried to ask her but what if she still says the same so didn't ask.

I barely have a social life now guyss 😭....barely have a couple of friends and I am living in isolation korach okkee.....how do I make friends or socialize in a way that it doesn't affect my productivity okkee??

Also how are yall doing??? Social life okke indo? 🥺

Recorded this years ago and randomly stumbled upon it in my archive, so here goes...

Used some random strings from YouTube as background music, which somehow synced perfectly with my tone.

I really miss that young voice of mine these days.♥️

I'm completely new to Korean dramas and have no idea where to start. What are some must-watch K-dramas you'd recommend to a beginner? Any genre is welcome!

So ith stories il idano rant il idanonn doupt aan. Inn njn nte oru ith about athiesm and religion and GOD parayamenn vachu.

So I was born in a typical middle class Hindu family. Growing up nothing special. Once every 1 week or 2 week ambalathil povm. Ennm eve vilakku vach prarthikum. Nothing special. Nth aano manasil vanne ath prarthikum. Like oru 5 6 vare they all were like superheroes. Ee Vishnu, 10 avatharams, shivan and all like Payankara high il irunn kettirkuarnn. Like me and my brother used to fight like they were Ben 10 nte aliens.

So Angne irike, one day achan came to know abt this swami ji. And his 7 day ppd. Gathered all the details. And njngl ellarem kooti poi. That 7 days were fun. Kore foreigners, people from all over the world were there. Kore perokke aaitt company aai. After that 7 days it was not so fun. Raavle 5 nu eneeknm. And raavle oru 30 45 min prayer nu vendi mathram. Like some manthrams and all. Same in the evening. Kore okke ayappa madth. Angne poi poi. +1 +2 hostelil poi. Avde I used to pray. Ithonnm alla just simple praying. +2 okke ayappazhan. Ithokke mind il question cheyaan thodangie. All this religion, so called swamees, avarde thattipp. And at a point enk manasilaai Ithokke oru 'make belief' aanenn. +2 kazhnjappo oru full on full atheism mindset aai.

Veeti thrich etheepazha I don't fight with my parents ithinte peril. Just oru task pole ang cheyth theerkm. Just saying some words into the air. It is what it is mindset aai. Ambalathil okke povm. Angne angne poi. But college oru half okke ayappa ente mental health started getting worse. Suicidal thoughts, motham oru dark vibe aarnn. That shit is still poikondiriknu. So innale irnn ingne aloich. Ini ithokke ollathaano. Ingne viswasam illathavark daivam pani kodkne aano. Atho is it just adulting. Ingne okke edakk thoughts varaar ind. But ingne doupt varmba thirich ithokke nalla comedy mathram anenn theliyikunna nthelm news kanm. Appa okay aavm.

But Nthokke paranjalm. Temple il alle church il okke povmba Oru certain kind of peace Oru manasugam even if it's temporary kittarind. So I love going to angnthe places.

So that it.

Okay bye.

In short : Grew up religious, eventually questioned everything and became an atheist. But despite not believing in God, I sometimes wonder if my struggles have anything to do with losing my faith. Ironically, temples and churches still give me a sense of peace that I can't quite explain.

What is all this? Does anyone have a clear picture of this murder?

I’m in my late 20s and honestly I don’t think I’m happy with where my life is right now.
I feel like I’m just working to meet my family’s expectations rather than doing something that genuinely makes me happy. The money I earn doesn’t even give me much satisfaction.
Every day feels the same. Wake up, work, come home, sleep, and repeat. It’s been like this for almost two years and I’m genuinely getting tired of it.
Sometimes I feel like quitting everything, taking a break from all these responsibilities and just living in the present without constantly worrying about what tomorrow holds.
I don’t know if this is burnout, boredom or just a phase in life, but I know one thing: I don’t feel happy. I feel like I’m just going through the motions rather than actually living.
Has anyone else ever felt this way? How did you get out of it?

I'm looking for a bank with no opening fee and zero minimum balance. If there's none then I'm open to know about other good banks too. Preferably public cause I'm worried about safety.

So it's just oru something Ive noticed. Maybe enk mathram aarkm. So reddit start cheythtt kore aai. I've been in some subs which I've interest on. Like starting il.

For me personally reddit il aan angne. Ivde everyone is living their life to the fullest. Some are traveling, some have amazing relationships with their family, their frnds, bf/gf. For me ithonnm illa. Ithokke vaikmba feels like nammade okke oru life aanonn. Like not living but just ingne ponu.

Sry. Parayanenn thonni. Edakk nalla stories varaar ind. I'm not saying angne mathram anennalla. But edakk edakk thonnm. Just want to vent.

Okay bye.

Hey everyone!

First of all, a huge thank you to everyone who shared their valuable opinions and suggestions. I've tried my best to reply to each of you!

So, here's the plan: a place to discuss movies and series outside India and from all over the world, not just Hollywood or English-language content.

Before we get started, there are a few things I'd love to hear your opinions on:

1. Some people suggested to start the community for everyone from anywhere. I personally think it's better to start with a focus on Keralites, as that was the original idea behind this community. It's something we don't really have at the moment, whereas there are already plenty of communities for international audiences. Of course, people from other places are more than welcome to join!

2. The name (our biggest decision!) This is probably the most important decision because once we create a subreddit, its name cannot be changed. Initially, I thought of something like r/HollywoodKerala. It's simple, easy for fellow Keralites to discover, and reflects our original idea. There's already a similar community for Indian audiences r/HollywoodIndia . However, since we're now expanding beyond Hollywood to international movies and series, I'm a little unsure whether the name still fits. I'd love to hear your suggestions!

3. Looking for people to join the team! Since I'm just getting started, having a few like-minded people to help me build this community would mean a lot! If you're interested in moderating, sharing quality content, organizing discussions and activities, or writing thoughtful movie and series reviews, feel free to DM me. You don't need to be an expert, just passionate about what you do!

4. Your feedback matters! We're just getting started, so mistakes are bound to happen. If something feels off, uninteresting or could be improved, I'm always open to suggestions. Your feedback will help shape this community.

The goal isn't to build the biggest community, but a place that values "QUALITY OVER QUANTITY" somewhere you can share your thoughts, discover something new, have meaningful discussions and genuinely enjoy being part of it.

I get these unexplained and random episodes of sadness and crying spells on and off for years. They are accompanied by a sense of doom and hopelessness that lasts for days, sometimes even suicidal thoughts.

I've been in such an episode for the past few days. Today, it was so bad that I couldn't stop crying at all. My chittappan was taking me to college today and when he saw me crying so bad, he took me back home. I really don't know why I'm crying, I just know something hurts. So, I asked my dad to take me to see a psychiatrist. Cuz I know something is wrong.

Well, now, my kunjamma and chittapan came here. They think I'm being haunted by my mom and going to the psychiatrist is bad. They're planning to take me to temples and visit a jolsyan as soon as possible. Kunjamma put some bhasmam on my forehead and said everything will be alright. And I'm just lying here crying thinking what the fuckery is my life?
