Black Mirror: a jarring insight into technology

 Black Mirror is the name of the anthology series concocted wonderfully by the front runner of the show called Charles Brooker. Black mirror is just a cerebral take on how people's lives are constantly dictated by the whims of modern technology and its subsequent harmful repercussions on our lives. Each episode aims to understand the collective zeitgeist which has been ruined due to modern technology.     Given the motif of the entire series, it is a no-brainer that every single episode is set in grim and ominous dystopian settings.

Add to that their genial, prompt nature makes this fine dining experience a must for everybody.  Subz has this lingering effect on you and I speak from

It talks about a loss that i recently faced. The loss of something that i held very dear to in my life. You might be thinking as to why I am out of my element for a while now, well that can  be attributed to my writer's block as well as the need to be more relatable and mellow, if that makes sense. Well here goes. After weeping profusely for 2 days straight since the incident occurred, this is merely my way of acknowledging my grief and speaking it out into existence. Since entrenching myself in the locales of a suburb called Nagarbhavi and failing to find friends my own age, my only companions here are the four legged cuties who are teeming like there's no tomorrow. One particular bond forged with this cute little white bundle of joy was enduring and pure, at least i hoped it would be.  It was merely happenstan
