Shelly Desai, Character Actor on ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ and ‘Men of a Certain Age,’ Dies at 90 Shelly Desai, character actor on “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” and “Men of a Certain Age,” died Feb. 10.

Since tonight’s episode is all about empathy, we should acknowledge a #TNGSunNight passing. Shelly Desai, born in Bombay and who moved to the U.S. to become an engineer & became an actor instead, passed away at the age of 90 this week. He played one of the first Bolians in Star Trek. #DesiWatch

That I reserve for the X app, bluesky is still a darling despite the glitches (like a hardboiled egg has a heart of gold) 😁

Yest I was intermittently deleting the cache. Let me try again today. Thanks for checking.

Upload itself is giving error. I tried uploading the error screenshot and even that is failing, lol.

Massie needs to get that out asap to people he trusts before he inadvertently falls out of a window.

I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.

And if any editors out there want to give this book a paper home in N. America or elsewhere beyond S. Asia, well, you know what to do. THE LAST DRAGONERS OF BOWBAZAR won a British Fantasy Award, a Subjective Chaos Kind of Award, & was nominated for the Locus Awards.

THE LAST DRAGONERS OF BOWBAZAR limited ed N. American hardcover is officially out of print, & no longer available. My BFA-winning book about a family of interreal refugees in 90s/00s Calcutta is still available as an ebook, & a paperback in S. Asia. Shares appreciated, reads even more so:

I was able to visit only 1 day for about an hour. The entrance area is as usual lined up with floral arrangements. While I admired the colors & creativity I also felt bad abt crushing or plucking into bits the flowers to produce such "installations". The theme this year was musical instruments

Did anybody visit this exhibition in Mumbai? I did and below (in next post) are some glimpses from my experience.

"They grabbed some pads from their house...

'We drove in through the back alley...It felt safer than parking out front...'

E. let them in through the back door.

And that's how, after several hours, 5 people & a citywide network of volunteers got a 12-year-old girl her first menstrual pad."
