THERE USED TO BE A LAKE HERE ONCE

A poetry collection about trans bodies, sapphic love, the desi queer community, and growing up Bengali in early 2000s Kolkata.

This is an indie debut poetry book by a non-binary Bengali author. Buying an author copy helps support me directly, as opposed to buying from a website.

GP*y: sritamasen1905@oksbi

P*yp*l: sritamasen1905@gmail.com

INR = Rs 300, USD = $ 4 (INR 300 converts to only about 3 USD, however, P*ypal skims off quite a bit, so if you want to support me, would appreciate if you paid around 4-5 USD)

HOW TO ORDER:

🦚 Fill out the Google form. There you can provide your personal details- address, pincode, country, name (PLEASE add the same name as a note in your Gp*y/P*ypal payment following slide 3; this will help me keep track.) as well as choose an edition of your preference and let me know what inscription/note you'd like me to add, if any.

🦚 After the base payment of Rs 300 is made via P*ypal or GP*y, I will confirm your purchase via Instagram DMs. Please ensure that your DMs are enabled, and if not, please mandatorily add your email ID.

🦚 Once I have finalized your order, I shall calculate shipping charges and let you know the additional prices to pay. For Indian folk, this will take 7-10 days. For those living abroad, please be patient, it might take slightly longer to calculate.

🦚 When you clear the shipping charges, your parcel shall be mailed soon after.

International purchasers, please try not to cancel orders after booking, I swear I'll have a meltdown if I have to figure out the P*yPàl and overseas refund transactions. Please, please be patient and cooperate; I'm a debut author and am still figuring out the nitty-gritties of overseas shipping. Also please note that I cannot 100% guarantee you a colour edition of your choice; although call me biased but they are all so beautiful. My payment details are on slide 3, and if you cannot purchase my book atm, I would appreciate a tip on my ko-fi!

Thank you for supporting a Bengali trans queer author; I hope I can write more for you soon.

For this sale, first priority will given to readers who identify as Desi, Bengali, LGBTQ of color and/or trans queer.

Better look at the various editions. The colours are black, scarlet, indigo/dark bluish purple, rose gold, emerald green and sea blue.

im noticing that for a lot of americans “free palestine” has been an ideological motto and symbol rather than them actually believing in their heart that freedom is attainable and necessary

palestinians deserve the right to be able to travel freely in our homeland. to even visit our homeland. for us to have citizenship and rights to our own country. to grow our plants. practice our religions. live without fear that our children can be kidnapped by israeli forces on their violent whims. to not have our life savings poured into building a home for our families that are torn down without real warning by israeli bulldozers. to no longer be refugees. like this is real life. this is real.

we don’t want to be reduced to a never ending slogan. we want to put down our need for resistance. to rest & to live.

Being a young adult is so strange. You enter a coffee shop. The 20 year old girl waiting behind you cried all night because she just came to a new city for university and she feels so alone. That 27 year old guy over there works a job he is overqualified for, he lives with his parents and wants to move out but doesn't know what to do about it. That one 24 year old dude already has a car, a house, and a job waiting for him once he graduates thanks to his dad's connections. The 26 year old barista couldn't complete his higher education because he has to work and take care of his family. The 28 year old girl sitting next to you has no friends to go out with so she is texting her mother. That couple (both 25 years old) are married and the girl is pregnant. The 29 year old writing something on her laptop has realized that she chose the wrong major so she is trying to start all over. We are not alone in this, but we are actually so alone. Do you feel me

The nazis that you see in movies are as much a historical fantasy as vikings with horned helmets and samurai cutting people in half.

The nazis were not some vague evil that wanted to hurt people for the sake of hurting them. They had specific goals which furthered a far right agenda, and they wanted to do harm to very specific groups, (largely slavs, jews, Romani, queer people, communists/leftists, and disabled people.)

The nazis didn't use soldiers in creepy gas masks as their main imagery that they sold to the german people, they used blond haired blue eyed families. Nor did they stand up on podiums saying that would wage an endless and brutal war, they gave speeches about protecting white Christian society from degenerates just like how conservatives do today.

Nazis weren't atheists or pagans. They were deeply Christian and Christianity was part of their ideology just like it is for modern conservatives. They spoke at lengths about defending their Christian nation from godless leftism. The ones who hated the catholic church hated it for protestant reasons. Nazi occultism was fringe within the party and never expected to become mainstream, and those occultists were still Christian, none of them ever claimed to be Satanists or Asatru.

Nazis were also not queer or disabled. They killed those groups, before they had a chance to kill almost anyone else actually. Despite the amount of disabled nazis or queer/queer coded nazis you'll see in movies and on TV, in reality they were very cishet and very able bodied. There was one high ranking nazi early on who was gay and the other nazis killed him for that. Saying the nazis were gay or disabled makes about as much sense as saying they were Jewish.

The nazis weren't mentally ill. As previously mentioned they hated disabled people, and this unquestionably included anyone neurodivergent. When the surviving nazi war criminals were given psychological tests after the war, they were shown to be some of the most neurotypical people out there.

The nazis weren't socialists. Full stop. They hated socialists. They got elected on hating socialists. They killed socialists. Hating all forms of lefitsm was a big part of their ideology, and especially a big part of how they sold themselves.

The nazis were not the supervillians you see on screen, not because they didn't do horrible things in real life, they most certainly did, but because they weren't that vague apolitical evil that exists for white American action heros to fight. They did horrible things because they had a right wing authoritarian political ideology, an ideology that is fundamentally the same as what most of the modern right wing believes.
