Schitt's Creek will (hopefully) win Emmys next week, but the show has meant the world to me at a time the world has lost a little meaning. Wrote a personal-ish essay about why I was destined to discover the Rose family during this pandemic. Read:

The more we hype up an ordinary cricket match, the more we amplify the sociopolitical divide and historical tension between two nations. It's just a game, projecting it to be any more than that is playing into the hands of those who use sport as a "mauka".
